A little more than little

Late night. Fairy lights. Endless scrolling.
I didn’t even realize that I was waiting.
I want it more than I can say.
A little more every day.
A little more than little.

I think of you every night.
Before I turn off the lights.
Hope to see you tonight.

Winter nights. Summertime. Staring at the screen.
From knowing nothing to all that it means.
I hope you I never have to miss.
You know I really like this.
A little more than little.

Who knows we might
Do more of what is right
For now, I’m enjoying this quite.

A little more than little.

‘Cos I sing a little more than little.
I dance a little more than little.
Smile a little more than little.
Feel a little more than little.
Believe a little more than little.
Just a little more than little.

So close and yet so far!

For all my close ones scattered across the world.

The closest ones, but the farthest away.
Technology..the internet may have brought the world closer, but what do you do on that sunshiny Sunday morning that calls for a breakfast with bestie? Or that fresh evening after the rains when all you want is to go on a long drive, stick your head out the car and go silly with your partner in crime? How about taking a break and heading to the hills and watching the sunrise together? Or just a coffee date for some heart-to-hearts? Maybe even just sitting together, silently, ‘cos the company of your best ones is enough.

Me? I’ll settle for that warm bear hug.

Dear internet,
You may have brought the world closer; can you bring my friends closer too?

Congratulations, it’s women’s day

from happy women’s day
to each day is women’s day
there are a million ways
in which they celebrate us
for being a woman

thank you, we say
and go back to fighting for the day
when they
will just congratulate us

(untitled)

On a day that wouldn’t end.
After a sleepless night I’d spent.
You were the friend
I’d look for.

Each new step and every fall

Playing hide and seek past sunset
Racing on cycles with friends
Driving lessons with dad
Those long walks and even longer phone calls I had
These streets have seen it all
Each new step and every fall

They’ve heard me scream in joy
And when I cried over that boy
From the colors of Holi
To the lights of Diwali
They’ve been through it all
My each new step and every fall
