- About this page
I could dedicate few pages for you
In the poetry of my life
But page was turned,
All it was blank and new
I could have written poem for you
In the blank pages
Got Lost in the dictionary
All the words remain due
Actually I was lost in myself
In the new world
Your love was so overwhelming
I just couldn’t help
I thought to ink down
My feelings for you
And realized it was late
I blamed it to the town
Okay, I had a feeling
But couldn’t define it right
When it all made sense
There were no stars in the night
Now, it’s an apology you knew
For the Dilemma I made
To reply your goodbye
Cause I have never written a poem for you
To the soil we made up of,
To the soul we build on,
To the food we live on,
And To the good we be of
To the trees we lean on,
To the air we take in,
To the dawn we wake in,
And to the skin we preen on.
To the moon you feel through,
To the skylight you look at,
To the night you adore at,
And To the sun you see through.
To the thoughts you believe with,
To the being you look up to,
To the thing you look down to,
And To the dreams you stick with.
i tried to walkaway
from the boundaries you’ve made
every step i take in the lights
was returned as the shade
finally i escaped away
but couldn’t erase my head

कतै रातो लगाईदिए
त कतै निलो अनि रंगीचंगी
धोई पुछी बगाइदिउला
तर जाला र यो अन्तरंगि
गोरेटोमा हितैसी ति
अज्ञात साथी संघ हरू
मेटिदैन पोतिएका
यि होलीका रंगहरू
日本語
遠い青空で遊んでいる鳥たちへ
私も群れに加わらせてくれないか
宇宙の上で笑っている空よ
どうか青空のままでいてね
Writing across three languages — English, Nepali, and Japanese — collected from notebooks and late nights. Poems and free writing. Some from years ago, some recent. Language shapes what can be said. These try to say it anyway.
These cards are styled after lokta kagaj — handmade Nepali paper crafted from the bark of the Daphne plant, grown in the Himalayas. Lokta has been made in Nepal for over a thousand years: rough at the edges, textured, warm. It holds ink differently than other paper. It feels like it was made to carry something personal. That felt right for this page.
