കുടാനായില്ലേ

-

മേഘം പോലെ
നീയും ഞാനും
സ്വപ്നം തേടി
അലഞ്ഞില്ലേ

പൊള്ളും നെഞ്ചിന്
കനൽ ആറാൻ
മഴയിൽ നാം
നനഞ്ഞില്ലേ

കനവുകൾ കാണുവാൻ
വിരലുകൾ കോർത്തിതാ
കാറ്റിൻ ഓളത്തിൽ
പറന്നില്ലേ

നീറും ഓർമ്മകൾ മറന്നില്ലേ
കണ്ണീർ പൂവുകൾ പൊഴിഞ്ഞില്ലേ
ഉള്ളം താനേ നിറഞ്ഞില്ലേ

പോവാം ദൂരെ
ലോകം കാണാൻ
തീരം താണ്ടി
കടന്നില്ലെ

പനിമതി പോലെ
നിനവുകൾ തെളിയേ
നെഞ്ചിന് ഭാരം
കുറഞ്ഞില്ലെ

ഉള്ളം തുറന്നു നാം
ഇഷ്ടം ചൊല്ലവേ
കൺകളാലെ പുണർനില്ലെ
പറയാ വാക്കുകൾ അറിഞ്ഞില്ലേ

ഇനി എന്നും എൻ ചില്ലയിൽ
കൂടാനായില്ലേ

He was drenched in sweat, the eye-blinding rays of the sun were too much to take for that little body of 8 years and he felt like he is walking on fire. He thought this might be what it is like in hell if he ends up doing so much haraam things. he held his ummi's salwar tighter and tried to walk as close to her as possible like Ummi said because it was very crowded and he could get easily lost. His little tummy was screaming with hunger but he was mature enough to not complain because he knew even Ummi didn't have anything for a day when he got to have a bun today morning. She didn't have work for so many days and they had to gather whatever they had to buy a bun for him and his 3-year-old sister, Dua.  the policemen were trying to move all of them to aside from the road by shoving their lathi mercilessly at them like what a shepherd does to his cattle. the sun above their head was getting brighter and brighter making it hard for shouku to look up. he walked further with h...

Her face seemed very lost in her thoughts. I could feel from her eyes that she was trying to connect all the dots of her thoughts to finally make sense of it and talk about it. her foot was restlessly tapping to the nervous rhythm of her mind. and she finally spoke "you know what, I wish if I could shed layers of me like snakes and be myself. it's like everyone has this idea of me when they hear my name. it drives me crazy and I don't want to exist in that bubble of an idea they have created for the identity I own".  she said this in a tensed tone. I couldn't make much of it as she always talks about things like this without head or tail. she does tell me things, yet she is very unknown to me. "What's wrong hon ?" I asked." "I don't know dude. its this pressure from people, society, responsibilities, expectations. it's like I have to run in this unknown race with everyone, nobody has any idea why we are doing so and to what or a...

Obsession

Her face was expressionless. She stared obliviously into the wall like there was something beyond it. She breathed heavily. Marks of tears on her cheeks looked like a dried-up river. She was withdrawn to herself like a sea who draws in before hitting hard with horrendous waves. He doesn't know for how long they sat there like that. He didn't dare to lift his gaze from the floor and sat motionlessly on that chair. The excruciating pain and torture of the dead silence of that room felt like a slow poison to him. "For how long has it been going on?" she asked without changing her dead-end gaze. "A month! ” he replied in a single word. Who is she ? she continued. His mouth dried up and sweat buds accumulated on his forehead. He knew a sorry couldn't save him anymore from her wrath. She  had all the right to burn him into ashes for it was her who lost everything and everybody to be with him, it was her who helped him stand on his feet, it was her who fought the wo...
