About the Author
Riddhi Kapoor describes herself as a “media professional by day and a rather pensive poet at night (who) oscillates between being naively idealistic to heart-breakingly cynical.” When she’s not writing, “she spends her time dreaming about all the food she wants to eat but can’t cook”.

My Side View

Move along
Will you now?
While I move aside,
Slowly, subtly,
But knowingly,
The entire time.

I like the view from here,
I can’t see fully, true
But I can sense all the colours
A conversation long overdue.

The side view is such a relief
A tight smile, the lips sealed.
This side view ever so perfect,
Hides the reality we unknowingly wheeled.
