Having been ripped open and drained by the crowd
when I enter my home,
many homes seem to be waiting for me
to give a shape to this life
which is about to perish.

More quotes by Suman Pokhrel

Every morning
I wake up with the news
of bloodshed.
I feel my body,
desperate to know whether
I’m still alive.

An uneasy rhythm of life
is more life like than an easy death.

I asked none
why life ends in ways uncertain.

Once positioned on their(children's) lips,
even the scariest of words
come out as a melodious lisp.

The dream too thinks twice,
gets filtered to go soft
to be seated on children's eyes.
