These are some of my poems, new poems will be uploaded every once in a while :) Am I a poet? No. But do I write poems? Yes-and I love it. (doesn't mean I'm very good at it :P) Sometimes I write when a beautiful line strikes my mind, and sometimes when emotions take over the logical brain. In the bigger picture, I don’t write because I already create something amazing. I write because, if I keep writing, one day I surely will. For if you keep waiting to write the perfect poem, you may never get close. But if you keep writing, one of your poems just might feel perfect ✨ the name by the way, ocarminamea = oh carmina mea, which means oh my poems in latin, a simple word play hehe...

Oh dear friendly neighbour....

Oh dear friendly neighbour...



 Oh dear friendly neighbour

who lives across the street,

I can see you while I’m studying

through the window, sitting in my seat.

Walking on the roof, talking

to your friends for hours 

Or when you’re dancing,

enjoying the rain

Oh you're real, you breath!


I see you, you know it-

when you don’t pick clothes

from the lines though it’s raining,

or when you’ve left papads on the roof,

a storm brewing and there's,

no sign of you.


What happened to you?

Where are you now?

I don’t see clothes drying anymore,

or you dancing when the rain pours,

and you’re not talking to anyone too?


There's this vacuum,

you not being there anymore-

But then again there's the rain,

To look at from the window,

Oh the smell of the ground

filling the room after a fresh rain 

but take care wherever you are

and I hope you’re doing well,

Oh, dear friendly neighbour

who lives across the street.


~AS, 2025


backstory:

अपर्याप्त

  उन्हें चाहने लगे हैं , वो मन को भाने लगे हैं | पता चला है मन को , कि मन में उनका रहना काफ़ी   नहीं   है | कुछ करने से पहले सोचना , क्या उनको पसंद आता , सिर्फ़ ये सोचना भी , काफ़ी नहीं है | और कुछ बनाने के बाद ये सवाल , क्या ये उन्हें दिखा पाते  भी, काफ़ी नहीं है | अब जाकर ये समझ आया , कि मन - ही - मन उनसे बातें करना , अब और ज़रा भी , काफ़ी नहीं है | सो आज मन ने पूछा है , क्या वो भी करते हैं , ऐसे मन - ही - मन बातें , जैसे हम किया करते हैं | सो आज हमारा मन , हो रहा प्रस्तुत , उनके मन के रूप में | और उनका मन कर रहा है , हमारे मन से बात | क्या माँगते हो तुम भी टूटते तारों से , दुआ में उठाते हो अपने हाथ | या कभी याद भी नहीं करते , दिनभर इधर - उधर के काम , और गहरी नींद पूरी रात | अजी , ये कहाँ फँस गए , कहाँ उलझ गया मन | इससे तो भले - चंगे थे , जब नहीं था इन पराये   विचारों का संग | जी...

Last Tea with Fear

-
Last Tea with Fear Two cups of water, Two cups of tea, I set the table, You set me free. After years of survival, I've finally mustered courage, Just enough to share the table, and pour the parting beverage. This is not a prayer! nor, if I dare say, a warning, consider this a request, for I can no longer survive, in your vicinage. Two ounces of courage, One of relief, This tea party is done, Now you need to leave. ~A Singh backstory: I don't have a specific backstory for this one, its a poem everyone can relate to, as we all have or had this one fear we at some point in our life decide to face, to those of you who did, congrats and to those who are still planning or are not sure.. more power to y'all and I hope you do it soon... And what about me you may ask, so I'm waiting for the right time, which is in fact coming closer...
