Khushbeen Kaur Poems

A silent ray of hope appeared
Far across the ocean
Or just a lust
because it is too early to trust
...

The show was going flawless
The dance was on the beat
You held me just so perfectly
Our steps would always meet
...

I thought you would, you dint
I waited all day long
I hope that you wanted to,
And my expectation was wrong
...

Ever seen a mad guy
Dancing on his own?
Or perhaps, singing?
Singing his own note?
...

Hold my hand, I won't mind
Little effort you have to make
Pull me out of the timid bubble
Little risk I shall then take
...

The breeze isn't restful, it hurts like a thorn
My hands get deaden, that’s why I wear gloves on
Tough to walk and tolerate the talk tonight
Give me one more coat, it’s so cold outside
...

A face with a smile,
As I enter the bar
Gave me a clear clue
a striking evening ain't too far
...

They say that I have changed….but haven’t they too?
It’s not a different “me”, but a sign that I grew
When they don’t seem to understand
Believe my rough hands
...

My heart pops up as you enter
I start breathing fast
As long as you stand near me
This smile on my face shall last
...

When you wipe their tears
Their vision gets even clear
And a voice from the sky
Says “Thank you”
...
