Half turned pages
Of a half read book
A full night, half spent
A wish half fulfilled
A romance fully wasted.

Jacket
Ek puraani jacket ki pocket
Tatol rahi thhi kayi din baad
Ek dhula huya paanch ka note
Ek mungfali ka adhmara chhilka
Aur ek pichki Mentos
Lagi kal shaam mere haath
Aise hi beeti thhi pichhli sardi
Garam jeb mein bachi yaadon ki tarah
Kuchh dhundhli, kuchh charmarayi aur thhodi pichki

Please
He had already said no to her. A million times. She wouldn't give up. Kept saying - "Pretty please, with cherry on top, please Papa!"
Weathered
It wasn't misty outside, but her eyes were. She came inside, wiped the slate clean. No mist, no dew, just a scratched black surface.

pH balance
He imagined a life soap operas are made of. He was too lazy to switch channels. But finally the froth settled and he got himself a brainwash.
On the Wall
You could see her body at work on the canvas.
The sheet had wrinkled in places and the heart was a speck of blue.

Dream sequence
They walked together through the fog.
It was like a dream sequence from a film.
Then their vision became clouded.

The last date
He carried the warmth in his heart and love-filled azure eyes.
She was carried by cold feet.
No, it's not December's fault.
