Do you remember?


Hey, do you still remember,
All the things, we bonded over.

Can you name them in one go,
Or should I count and let you know?

About the course, we would rather do,
When we were running from the summer loo.

Adventures of Han, Leia and Luke.
Who among R2 or BB-8 is cute?

Choosing fav from the superhero clan,
And shouting friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man 🕷

All the songs that got the fame,
While listening to Akcent's That's My Name.

Believe me, it's not just these four,
If you are ready we can count on some more.

The temper tantrums that we threw,
The childhood skirmishes as if we were Sun Tzu.

The crushes that we had,
All the things we did to make each other mad.

A bunch of Happy Meals that we ordered,
Fighting for the toys and getting them reordered.

Splurging our banknotes,
Me on Indian coins, you on World currency notes.

No, I am not done at eight
You might forget but I am not letting them fade.

Talking about all the work in the office,
Laughing at the antics of Michael, Dwight from The Office.

Buying goodies at the Comic-Con booth,
Getting chocolates cause I have a sweet tooth.

Sitting outside Costa Coffee,
Discussing history and geography.

The time spent on cooking,
Your delicious pasta and my wheat flour pudding.

Can mention more than these twelve,
Just stopping cause there are so many to tell.

Will, you still remember,
All the things, we bonded over,
Before you left me,
And it was game over.

Polished Sins

  A suit and tie, that polished smile, Covering up sins stacked mile by mile. They flaunt “new love,” someone else’s child— A ready-made story, perfectly styled. They’ve “levelled up,” or so they preach, But on someone’s pain, they made their reach, With vows of loyalty, words so neat, While another’s screams lie beneath their feet. Oh, they “moved on” to brighter skies, Leaving someone broken, with silent cries. They mount new heights, they shout and boast— Scaling peaks on another's haunted ghost. So smile for the camera, flash your pride, Show off the life that you tried to hide. For we know the truth beneath your gleam— A hollow show, a self-made scheme.

Stay Away

Stay away, stay away Keep those hands away Stay away, stay away I am not on display Stay away, stay away I just want my name on the hard black clay Stay away, stay away I am a kid who just wants to play Stay away, stay away All these memories are like a never-ending screenplay ~ Kanika Kaushal ✨ The Luminous Muse

Model Men and Their Modern Myths

  Here come the men who love their pride, With “culture” on speed dial, their mothers beside them. They want a wife who’ll light the lamp, While they scroll through pages of virtual vamp. They call themselves leaders, oh so wise, But sex ed is a topic they just despise. If you ask them about anatomy's flow, They’ll stammer, then boast about paychecks to show. Progressive now, they’ll have you believe, Because daughters study, and daughters leave The home to work—but don’t go too far, Or they’ll pull you right back by some invisible bar. They crave the respect, the honour, the fame, Yet when faced with real talk, they’re quick to shame. These "modern men" with their ancient views— One foot in the past, and the other confused. Oh, fools of entitlement, kings of the mud, With egos so fragile, they’re bound to flood At the slightest nudge of applied insight— They’ll laugh, then pull you out of their sight. So here’s to these men, these leaders so grand, With “values” in one, ...
