Seven days in a week!!!

In which-

Four days a week is depressive, 

Two days remains okkie dokkie, 

One day is spent happy and hopeful for no reason, and the other day is monotonous, and it continues,

It continues in a loop, 

In a circulation,

Repetitive, 

Usual,

Banal and boring,

Seven days a week continues to bore me,

Like a loop- the neverending melancholic days never blooms, 

Days doesn’t smell like brewed coffee, flowers, cinema, songs and books, 

Instead I count my days in hues- black and white, Grey in between sometimes, 

I am drowned in a drowsy land, 

Continuously collapsing- I don’t find a reason to live or stay, 

I don’t feel the urge to do what I do, 

And, definitely, there are times when I don’t enjoy what I do, 

Days are circulating like a busy street,

Pages of calenders moving ahead, 

But, Days are going on a move, 

In a loop of agony, 

Seven days a week is spent in monotony and boredom, gloomy and weary- old routines scuffing off, 

I wrapped schedules like a scarf around my neck- and its chocking now, 

I can’t breath, 

I can’t smell home cooked meals, spices and tea,

I can’t breath, 

I am suffocated in the workstation,

Some days I struggle to get up from bed: my  invisible battle,

I can’t feel me, 

So, I stopped looking for her.

You see me winning in life, 

I see myself collapsing,

Seven days a week- without any variations, 

Unblinkingly the same- boring and monochromatic with a few satanic rituals.

Reflections

A decade went lamenting for you, A decade spent ranting about you, A series of decade has gone by blaming

Emancipation

Faulty stars in the sky leading to a faulty love story—well, stars were not deformed. It was our own fault—a

Racing Hearts

It was nice to know you. It’s a pleasure to meet you.  It’s sweet to kiss you.  But it’s horrendous

Addiction

You were not my love. You were merely just an addiction,  Talking with you over the phone, Fighting over

Circles

Love was a priority then. Happiness was destiny. But now love is not predestined. Sometimes it’s a mistake. But mistakes

Sabotage

I was standing on the brink of a montage. But you always end up bringing about sabotage! I overcame the
