ANJALI KAKATI Poems

Every night,
I cry out my heart
To the pillow
And turning it upside down,
...

You are up there
Perched
And poised
On a citadel.
...

When I was little
I would often run
Far and wide
Chasing the horizon,
...

Its all there
in the mind,
Two emotions,
“Love and hate”.
...

When you
Showed me the rainbow
For the first time,
I wished for a ladder
...

Aei ajnabi
Kyon tum mujhko
Itne aapne se lage?
...

Rainbow
o rainbow,
so distant.
come down from the horizon
...

Dekho,
Kitni sudhar gayi hai jindagi...
Na kissi ke aane ka
Intezar hoga...
...

Rok lo
Bas, Aaj rok lo
Mujhe jaane na do.
...

Kya dhoondhte hai?
Kyoun dhoondhte hai?
Kise dhoondhte hai?
