Manasi Agarwal Poems

Have you lived your dream?
Is there something you will die for?
Is the purpose of your life ‘purposeful’?
...

Your voice dawned like sunshine on my day
Your laughter tickled the air through the way
Your warmth shielded me from my fears
...

They say we humans can't live alone
We need someone to pull us out of doom
But did someone gesture a silent promise of keeping close
Unconditionally, in a rather unsung way?
...

When the situation says right
We say right
When the wind blows the opposite way
We find reasons to sway
...

What is it about you
That leaves me spellbound?
Is it the strength of your spirit?
Which refuses to die down?
...

Walking on a dark dingy street
I heard footsteps
Tuck, tuck, tuck
Startled, I looked back
...
