As I..

As I sit by the shore
I can feel the breeze
Hitting my face
Sweeping away with it
My inner most fears.

As it starts to pour
I feel I could freeze
My limbs go stiff
Though I feel at peace.

As I walk through the lonely roads
The leaves stick to my skin
Giving me a feeling
That I am the only one.

As I sit in my verandah
Staring at the sky through the trees
While listening to the almost extinct sparrows
Chirping a sad symphony.

As I take a stroll in my terrace
Watching the moon-lit sky
The stars shining like the diamond
That makes me wonder more
What goes beyond this life.

Life, As we call it

Once you are born Into this big, big world You enter a confusing maze- Something you need to figure out Life, as we call it Once upon a time You are just a child The next minute, an adult With a big responsibility at hand – Life, as we call it One day you are free Like a bird flying high The next day you are pulled down Further into complexities – Life, as we call it One minute you are so sure Of what to expect next The next minute you are thrusted Back to square one – Life, as we call it One minute you are happy Of all the wonders around you The next minute you are pushed back To reality that might be nasty – Life, as we call it Life, as we call it Might be unfair at most times Somehow that is what makes it exciting Giving us the power to deal with, Life, as we call it

Don't "Kid" Around

The beach is where one goes to catch up with old friends, enjoy the sea breeze, experience the peace and tranquility, listen to the waves whistling or at times when you want to be alone. While doing all this fun stuff, you don’t want to see anything unpleasant; something that might disturb you. Unfortunately, it happened to me. It was around 4.00 p.m on a Sunday and a few of us decided to go the Besant Nagar beach. Right next to the shore, there was a tent-like structure constructed with the help of solid, thick rods with a rope connecting both sides. I was very amused to find something like this so close to the water. However, to my horror I found a little girl, probably 6 years of age, comes out from nowhere and starts doing her famous cartwheels. For a second I thought I was hallucinating. Her next stunt was to come in and out of a small hula hoop. She wriggled in and out of it like she was made of elastic. She twisted and turned her limbs in all directions possible like the rub...

Story of my Life

One fine morning, I realize "I am old enough now. I know what I want". I decide to send a message in a bottle  To God, the only one who could get my dreams To come to life, to spread some joy.  He, who knew what I wanted Gave me the same.  As a teenager, I did not know  How I was to handle the overwhelmed feeling And gave way to a lot of indulgence. Love as a feeling was my only goal  To achieve; both to give and receive.  Sadly, I did not know the difference  Paving way to a lot of pit-holes  Not knowing what was in it for me.  Life as I knew it then Took me through a roller coaster ride. A ride that, till date will never forget  A ride that changed my life  A ride that forced me to face reality.  A journey through the best and the worst  A journey that made me insensitive. A journey that caused havoc in my life  A journey that gradually settled Reminding me of my foolishness and wrong choices. There had to be s...
