Rewind - January 2023

 I can't believe January is over. It went by like a whoosh. I am writing better than what I did in the last quarter of 2022. I want to write more long-form Hindi poems this year.

I wrote the following in January:

देने वाले ने रिश्ता खत्म होने का 

क्या सिगनल दिया 

आज वह नाराज़ मुझ से था 

और गुस्सा किसी और पे किया 


Dene wale ne rishta khatam hone ka

Kya signal diya

Aaj woh naraaz mujh se tha

Par gussa kisi aur pe kiya

There is more strength in me

Than there is stress

There is more beauty in my vulnerability

Than in my 100-dollar dress

Them f**kers can't rule me

They try nevertheless

Honest to God truth -

When a man can't handle a strong woman

He often calls her a mess

वो जो नस-नस में आग लगाती है

तुम वो बुरी आदत हो

​​तेरे शहर से गुज़रु और तू याद भी ना आए 

बस इतना भूलना है तुझे


Tere shehar se guzaru aur tu yaad bhi na aaye

Bas itna bhulna hai tujhe
