This poem explores the unsaid parts of love and healing! Much more than just expressive love.
Let’s Lie down, next to each other Straight with our backs facing upwards
Naked, bare I will let you feel my spine, It bruises and bumps, everything in between From my neck till your back Connected, like puzzle pieces And see the dimples it creates on the bottom of your back
Let’s, Look at each other And count the light in our eyes The tip of your fingers Tracing down my neck Soothing my scars out of illusion
So, let’s, Lie down, next to each other With our backs facing upwards Neither side showing the offense And slowly burden each other with Your freckles and my bruises One above the other Laidback, feel the weight build up Of emotions and weapons
Till you’re no longer soothing the scars down my neck This isn’t about love This is about delusional competition And trust me, you’re not the only one With hold of my thoughts I’ve got my back (and yours too)

Falling in love, marriage, a hidden secret, divorce. Despite all this, Vinita noticed her life was full of love that came in various unexpected shades!
“Aap jinke kareeb hotey hain, woh badey kush naseeb hotey hain…”
Just as Vinita was settling down into the cab seat, the driver put on music and the song started to play. It took her back immediately to that evening ten years ago, when Gautam had sung that very same song to her on the first evening they had met. She could remember every single detail of that evening so very clearly.
The driver obliged and immediately stopped the bus for them. Many men got down. They shamelessly lined up just by the side of the bus and peed on the other side of the road.
I work in Pune. My family lives far away from me in a small town along the coast of Konkan. I get to meet them once every fortnight for which I have to take a nine-hour long overnight bus journey.
