The Day Has Come

O My Friend!

The day has come
When rationality is an unknown virtue
When the knowledge is experienced, just by few
When truth is lost in the shadows of lies
And the prejudiced-captive self, cries
Reasons no longer possess the conviction
Morals are vanishing, the nihilistic attrition
When the bleak light of hope is slowly diminishing
Fears and distress, is what we can see

So, I say, My Friend!

That the day has come
When, to save humanity, we must unite
To claim our SELF, exploit the will and might
Hold onto the light of hope, we must see
Beyond our fears and disparity, beyond just “ME”
To make it happen, we must be the change
In pursuit of truth, must surmount the pain
When we seek life, beyond the barriers of our prejudice
Then only living, My Friend, is worth it !!!

Peace.

P.S. – If you are not able to get the jest of writer’s thought, then no problem. All you need to do, to get this one is – Read something that is partly spiritual, partly philosophical, partly psychological and humanly. And spend some time to see the chaos around you blended with introspection.

Who Am I ?

Message: The writer does not intend to shake anybody’s beliefs and opinions. The sole reason for the creation of this piece is the human ability to think/reason and the mysteries surrounding the existence of GOD assumingly Generating/Observing/Destroying our lives. The writer just wants you to reason your outlook and search for the answer on your own.

Who am I ?

Talks and logics are of no help
What I need to explore …is my inner self
The Architect…The Demolisher of my life..is just me
The Regulator…The Caretaker…he cannot be
Arguments are created and it’s mere perceptions
Theism and agnosticism are only conceptions
It’s not the vanity, neither boasting the self
Belief in the deity is just a way to help
Help…For miseries….Somebody to address the blame
Help…For relief….Something to cut down the pain
Everything can be checked….Sin and Virtue
How it depends on the Almighty ?…Aintt got a clue
The Good and the Bad are nothing but internal facts
Why does he wait for reincarnation ?..To punish for the errant acts
Karma is required…to exercise control and tame the MAN
Animals needs to be disciplined.. even in human clan
Mind holds the key to heaven and hell
Religion is just a product…anybody can sell
There’s nothing beyond life..nothing was there
Just a VOID ….no painful tortures…no fancy fares
There’s no destination…just a road to tread
It’s simple…either you are alive or you are dead
Scriptures are mythological….Proven by the history
Hitler was reality, but The Almighty…..well still is a mystery

We created GOD or GOD created we
Matter of belief….Thou believe in him…I believe in Thee
It’s not about showing the path and offering the light
It’s just a plain question to yourself …. “WHO AM !?”

Peace

My Love!!!

My Love…

When I was 6
Had a crush on my Miss
The way… she spoke and she moved
Made me happy, got me drooled
I realized it was, just one sweet dream
When…In her marriage, I had my ice –cream

When I was 12
It came about again
Characters changed but crux was the same
I knew she is the one and it’s only her
When she talked to me and asked for an eraser
But good times seldom stay my friend…..
I realized when I had her “Rakhi” on my hand.

When I turned 18
Was high on adrenaline..hunting for my queen
And she appeared like an angel from the sky
Did a full profile check …for her Boyfriend and Bhai
She was in my practicals and we shared the bus seat even
Thought finally it’s the time and world became heaven
But that’s only how the fairy tale ends
She broke it on 14th…with…”We Are Just Friends”

Now, as I am 24
I realize everything… can’t ask for more
My love…I looked out for...did not like me
My love...Someone had for me….did not strike me
And like all failed lovers, only gyan I can give –
Times change and so do our life
Save for your potential kids and wait for your wife

Change!!!

Change
When I was a kid, I wanted to be someone
Color the whole world and kill the criminals with a gun
Didn’t care about tomorrow, as today was the craze
But could not hold onto it, life was meant to change…

When I was young, there were many things to do
Riding on adrenaline, was living out of the blue
Revolutionizing the world around me, out on a goose chase
Was dumb enough to realize, life’s gonna change…

When I was a little older, it occurred to me
The purpose of living, the light of my sky was…She
Love bloomed in heart and soul…was one crazy blaze
When the marriage bell rang, I realized… time is bound to change…

When I had a kid, the feeling was over the top
It was tough, but I skipped the bars...to visit toys’ shop
Parenting was not easy, failure fright was one big faze
I saw him grow….and then… I saw him change…

When I grew old, I contemplated my life
The fallacies of fate and my struggle to survive
Looking down from the exit, it was one hell of a maze
It was just me…by my side, solely living the change…

Now, as I am going to die……
It’s time to leave… to say goodbye
Life was nothing but a see-saw
Knocking me down and taking me high
Getting a smile and making me cry
When people grew tough and things went strange
The only thing impervious… was THE CHANGE…

Amen.

Cocaine…

The flickering lights and the shabby room
The spinning head coz the music grooves
Things are getting slower or am I moving fast
Why don’t the earth cracks?…when I can hear the blast
Lazing there, I saw..I felt…. what I have never imagined
Trying to hold my senses, slowly moving through the transition
Was it the devil himself or something moved beside me
Blood rush… like volcano erupted inside me
Wooziness is fun and I could feel the trance
Where’s the damn roof ?...Am I talking to stars?
It was just a dash…. but I think the coke hit me
She murmured something…ahh!! that pretty face……why don’t she shut it
My hands are numb and my fingers are getting cold
I laughed for the past and the surprises future beholds
I cried for the love I missed and those I messed up
My heart hobbled…Damn you!!… how many times you wanna break up?
Thirst is dancing on my lips since the start of the night
I want to punch the wall…..hey you!!…..let’s have a fight!!
I sank into the deep dark waters and struggled for a gasp
It somehow broke the shackles and am out of the trap
Somebody turned up the volume and Cobain shouted
Orange, yellow with a little red is what I could make out
I forgave the snakes and forgot the stings
I loved the euphoria…. That I was in
I thought life to be crap and people to be profane
I forgave them all……coz I found my cocaine.

Peace

Love…

I killed her
Not because I hated her that much
I shot her
Just because, I could not forget that touch

I cried that night
Not because I regretted the deed
I cried that night
Just because, I knew it was the need

I remembered her love
Not because it was for me, or it was all mine
I remembered her love
Because, those moments were so fine

I smiled to her
Not because I lost the balance of mind
I smiled to her
Because, even her betrayal was so kind

I shot myself
Not because I was afraid to live life
I shot me in the heart
Because, that’s what I thought love is like.

The Inside Journey

Days months and years passed by….
Was living under this illusion of complete GYAN
Read books and met people…….
Tried being a thinker and even a clown

Every time I thought I have got the answers
I m grown up and I understand
Life turned out again with different colors
Sometimes made me sick….sometimes it was grand

Was taught and disciplined and mind washed
But I wanted to break free…..
Free from the religion society and the caste
Was in search of mah inner self…..just me

Am I just a figment of mah own perception??
Or its just a body and a mind…..??
Taking up different roles .. ohh I so love d deceptions
Playing mah part…….also tried the other sides

Mah choices made me the person I am
Priority was the take of the time…
“To be or Not to Be”….was all that I can
Was taking mah own stand…so big a crime??

Emotions are good …..but does not work 24X7
Logics fail sometimes too…..it just happens
I tried to be many but all I can be is ONE
The Ultimate Truth is what I am seeking………..

The Last Note

Curtains are down and the lights are dim
On to the window shadows blink
Saw my face and my emotions are visible
They won’t understand it….. nothing is feasible

Life outside is fast and ever growing….
I was left out…..didn’t feel like following
Is it just the glass that makes me stand apart
Or the morals that I pursued.. right from the start

All the memories flashed on the window against me
Did I struggle for this?? or was it what I am destined to be??
Friends family and all the people I m leaving
Were they really there or it was just a lie.. I m believing

Bidding goodbye to the things I loved and enjoyed
Stepping to my next goal… I can really see the void
With a sigh of relief…. opened the window
It was time…….time to… leave behind the shadows

It’s my decision and my choice to fly…….
Don’t wan’t you to feel bad…..don’t want you to cry………

Inside me

22 years in the making and things changed
My feelings ....my emotions.…felt strange
Gone are the sunny days….days of the carefree
Time has changed and so is the person… I used to be
My perspective....... about the world around me
Carved out this rage….. Inside Me

Cramming and beatings…is what I make of education
Scaring the children….building up the frustration
Competition and cutting other’s neck… was the motive
Couldn’t make up to the pace….tried as hard as it can be
But it changed the vision…how I feel n how I see
Bringing out ….the other side of Me

Caste, Community and religion is what I was taught
But could not justify still….why the hell… people fought
It’s plain biology…… got that in school….and that’s what I’ve found
We all are just homosapiens….some are dumb and some are sound
Then why this hullabaloo….the fighting spree
Don’t know….but …creates an uproar Inside Me


Democracy……I thought…….was freedom for people
But politics and power games…..making my country cripple
Vote banks and allegations is what they have made it
If there’s no nuisance….Well then create it
It’s simple…..why people can’t see
I can…..it’s the other side of Me


Bomb blasts and communal riots…..is what people want now
“Live and let live”…seems ….they cannot see it somehow
Humanity is redefined, because minds are getting nihilistic
“Let’s make world a better place”…seems sarcastic
But I would rise……. Stand against it all….
I can…coz…I’ve got what it takes….Inside Me……….

I RAN

I RAN
From the miseries and the pain
From the mud to come out clean
From Darkness to the light
From the helpless to the might

I RAN
From the people and the love
From the responsibility all above
From the tears and the emotions
From the care and the relations

I RAN
From the exhaustion to the solace
From the crowd to my space
From the heart to the mind
Until I went blind…..

I Stopped
When I found the answers and all
When I could feel the soul
When I was able to see
When I found me…………

My Self-righteousness

Killed them all, coz that was right
Its no longer about me, the whole fiery fight
They should have thought before this devilish deed
They have to cry now……regret, shout and bleed
I did not make enemies, it was always them
I followed the right, It was my self-righteousness
Never believed in violence….
Wasn’t my fault….so was my experience
I wanted peace and harmony all around
Hatred, jealousy and war is what is found
“An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind” is what I was taught
Why don’t they respect humanity…and that is why I fought
Lost my optimism and guilt conscience …….
Negative plus negative makes positive...read that in science
But still somewhere deep inside……I feel things would change…..
Till then m struggling…. when everybody seems strange
