M. Asim Nehal Poems

Oh, the viral people, with your perfect lives,
why do you post envy-inducing pictures,
is it just for social media drives?
...

The trees, they whisper
whispers of ancient wisdom
nature's gift to us.
...

When the sun was on the verge of setting
and the moon revealed its glimpses
the weary looking faces
began to radiate in my eyes
...

In an old age home, a tale of a young girl unfolds,
her eyes filled with tears and her heartache untold.
Her parents kept it clandestine and held their lips tight,
Until the school took the students to the old age home site.
...

My heart is without anchor
It sails in all directions

You took my heart and tried to tie it down
...

Yes, it was raining
When I first met you
I saw umpteen desires
Dancing in your eyes
...

On million waves, I travelled across
Emerged from the darkness of the sea

I am still waiting for someone to pick me up
...

Your eyes are pools of darkness
Where my heart flows aimlessly
Bruising the sides of twilights
Between the dawn and the dusk
...

Born on one of the streets of an urban city
Grown under the protection of my mothers’ care
Learned the tricks to survive on the busy roads
...

garden of delight
where the birds sing melody
bumble bee dances
...
