Audacity

How often do we see men pretending to be saints, only to reveal their true colours when the mask slips? Have we forgotten the price of their hollow promises?




You made beds with a pro, thought you were a hunk,
Stumbled home drunk, all swagger and funk.
"Trust me," you said, "shower me with love,"
As if loyalty is a gift sent from above.

The boy who "hates" my tears, oh, what a show,
But laughed loud and clear at my screams, you know.
"Anything for you," you said, such a saint—
Yet broke me by phone, with fruit chaat as paint.

Smirking, "I’ve got a meeting," what a line—
While I drowned in my pain, you sipped your lime.
And now you want babies, a fresh new start,
Praying to gods you made me hate in my heart.

Audacity, dear, should be your middle name,
You play the victim but fuel the flame.
Man of the hour? Oh, what a disguise—
Your greatness ends with your own hollow lies.


How many times have we seen men like this, using charm and lies to deceive, only to fall short when it’s time to show real love? When do we stop giving them a pass?

The Spotted Cucumber

  One fine day, tired of "always my way," I reached for comfort, or maybe just a craving. Picked up a spotted cucumber— Seemed harmless enough, so why not? But the moment I touched it, it pricked. Unwanted timber in my hands, Yet I let it be—what else could I do? Hunger led me to peel its layers, Only to find the filth it hid underneath. Worms writhing where freshness should be, Rot, disguised as something nourishing. I thought it was doing me a favor, But all it did was make me sick. Never knew comfort could leave such a taste— Bitter enough to spill my guts out. Next time, I’d rather reach for something rich, Something warm, indulgent, and worth my time. A smooth, chocolaty éclair— Rather than ever go for such a comfortable, unhealthy affair.

Us Two

  As the hands struck two… Can you feel my hands on you? The power of the universe with just us two I am so into you. Who’s counting the minutes? Only we know what we brew. Even if the world fades to dark, We shine brighter in our spark. Your lips brush my nape, Undoing the shyness of my drapes. As your fingertips trace me, I melt like that slice of brie.

Temptress

  I wanna be your temptress, Get you down on my mattress. You be the king, I'll be your empress. I already have a clear purpose, You can trace every curve and surface. I've got one mission for you— Are you built for the secret service? Let me take a bite of that apple, Can you make me pray without taking me to the chapel? They call me a wolf, but I will bear your saddle, Make me howl like the moon's lone disciple. Either play this like a boring game of Scrabble, Or get your armor on and be ready for a passionate battle.
