Perfect night.

When you take me out,
Intentionally take the route of a heavily packed road
or you could bring me to your special place.

Let's talk about all sorts of things-

From physics to metaphysics;
From our dreams to our favorite scents.
Let me invade your mind and just chill for the night.

Let the world move and we'll take a pause.

Let the people be in chaos and let's watch the world burn.
Let's just take a sip of a perfect night- invading each other's minds.
I know a night is not enough.
We need a life time of it.

Am I asleep, am I awake?

When I saw you, I felt something so special
And all those daydreams where I pictured you
I've never felt like this before 
Cause lately I've been dreaming about you a lot

Goofy

I don't take life too seriously
more like popcorn and cotton candy
My writing is raw and somewhat simple
Not real acne, just a pimple

Funny sometimes
And sometimes very dark
An awful lot to say
About a broken heart

Sometimes happy, sometimes sad
Sometimes very angry and  mad

Ill always find something to write about
Whether it's the ocean or love or a case of the gout 

I'll keep writing, I'll never hold back
Unless they take me off my Prozac

Are we friends or not?

Written with a pen, sealed with a kiss,
If you are my friend, please answer me this:
Are we friends, or are we not?
You told me once, but I forgot.
So tell me now, and tell me true,
So I can say I'm here for you.
Of all the friends I've ever met,
You're the one I won't forget.
And if I die before you do,
I'll go to Heaven and wait for you,
I'll give the angels back their wings
And risk the loss of everything.
There isn't a thing I wouldn't do,
To have a friend just like you!

Infinity


If I wanted to describe you,

I would need to learn 
To write in numbers


For there are only 
Twenty-six
Letters in the alphabet
But an
Infinity
Of numbers


And I would need every one of them,
Just to describe you
-Khushi Jain

(My poem is inspired by One Direction's new song 'Infinity')

Childhood!

Wounded knees, mango trees,
Walking down the same old street,

Eight years old, feeling bold,
A gash on the nose and an awful cold,

Chicken pox, knee-high socks,
Folded letters in a black shoe box, 

Ponytails, fairy tales,
Choir practice, don't forget to exhale,

Chapter books, nasty looks,
Never had the chance to cook,

Constant smothers, doting mother,
Shamelessly listening to The Jonas Brothers,

Toothy grins, double chin,
Constantly losing bobby pins,

Cheeks flushed, prep crush,
I still regret that very much,

Detention, pay attention,
Meet everyone's expectations,

Disappointment, good intent
Nothing that I said was meant,

Growing up, just shut up,
Remember it's okay to mess up,

Years went by, I wonder why,
When did my childhood say goodbye?

London.

How does London’s moon look down?
With extra shine from queen’s posh crown?
Does it smolder just the same?
Does is whisper out your name? 
I bet it speaks with British charm,
To crush my heart with further harm.

Do Scotland’s stars burn just as bright? 
Making you feel like you’ll take fancy flight?
Gazing from across the pond,
Do they sing a sweet and airy song?
Oh, maybe you can make a wish
That our hearts won’t be as apart as this.

Silly!

I wait for 12 am
to be the first to wish you
Happy Birthday.

I let you hug me
as tightly as you want and
let you let go whenever. 

I smile when you say
I look pretty and ignored
you repeating it to others.

I trust that you were looking
into my eyes and 
not anywhere else.

I was touched when you
told them to get off me,
You're a gentleman. 

I over think, 
everything you do and say 
because like you said,
I'm silly.
