"Poems that tell stories,
stories about promises,
promises of love,
love that transformed into art,
art that manifested through poems,

‘Poems that do not rhyme’ is a collection of poems written in the form of free verses. Although the individual poems seem unrelated at the first glance but the poems are arranged in such an order that they traverse through the journey of an alcoholic man who accidentally falls in love with a girl who was still in love with her ex-lover.
The poems revolve around his character, his love for her, his alcoholism, his hatred, his lamentations and his regrets for losing her.

    Poems That Do Not Rhyme - Manish Pathania

    ACT-II

    INCEPTION OF ART IN ME

    All works of art are nothing,

    but a reminiscence of beauty in hindsight.

    No poet looks at the rainbow

    and conjures up a beautiful poem,

    but when he goes home,

    settles down in his study

    and tries to remember the spectacle,

    emotions get transformed into art.

    A musician does not write his composition

    sitting in the arms of his beloved,

    but when he tries to find his muse

    in the notes of a symphony,

    a beautiful song is created.

    Similar was the effect of her beauty,

    when I saw her for the first time.

    I had never understood art,

    or perhaps love for that matter,

    but I guess that was

    the moment of inception

    of art in me,

    or perhaps love,

    but aren’t both one and the same thing?

    SHE WAS BEYOND WORDS

    I looked at her photograph,

    Boy! She was the epitome of delightfulness.

    She was wearing

    a sky blue frock

    with white floral prints,

    her straight hair

    was rolling down her breasts,

    and her big black beautiful eyes

    were twinkling with happiness.

    She was smiling

    as much as her face allowed,

    with the innocence

    of a five year old girl

    receiving guests on her birthday.

    Her hands were outstretched,

    inviting someone to embrace her,

    perhaps me,

    why not me?

    I wish I was there with her

    at that precise moment.

    I would have embraced her

    over and over again,

    until her charm rubbed off on me.

    All the words that came to my mind

    were too trivial,

    too limited

    to describe her,

    and I rejected them

    as soon as they spawned in my head.

    She was beyond words,

    she was beyond poems,

    she was beyond books,

    she was beyond literature,

    perhaps, she was beyond this world

    to be manifested in art.

    ARTISTICALLY IN LOVE

    She was lazily dressed,

    not shabbily but lazily.

    It wasn't that

    she didn't know how gorgeous she was

    but perhaps she didn't want the world to know.

    Then I remembered that she always dressed
