Slap of Time

Lives fell and grew.

Though it benefits a few,
it effects the rest of the crew. 
Slap of time known to generations, old or new

Changing time is an evident long drive 

And has moved across the continents five, 
The journey starts from harmony & peace,
ends on the road of pain & disease. 

Days of brotherhood live short.

Back are the days of crime
A havocked mind is wrought 
with the passage of aberrant time. 

Wheel of fortune has an ugly twist

Good turns bad and the bad turns good
Lives controlled by the shining dime
never survive the slap of time.

Humanity

 

I believed in my mind,

that one day in this city,

My lone and desperate search

will find me some humanity.

 

Our world boasts of numerous feats.

But when I walked down the streets,

I found lots of naked ill-treats,

dying for basic necessities

I tried hard for motivated help.

All in vain in this pityless soil.

The outcome was a bunch of etiolate excuses,

which made my heart to boil.

 

Now I walk aimless

with failures and no hope.

The day I see a ray of light

I'll stand up for my cause and fight.

Confused Obsession

She once said its friendship, 

not to dilute its meaning. 

She said it’s not love 

cause she had no feelings. 

Now she says she likes me 

but doesn’t want to elope. 

She says she cannot commit, 

wanting me to remain as a silent hope. 

She basked in my company 

enjoyed spending time with me 

She used to call and speak to me a lot 

and when she ain’t, missed me a lot 

She wants me to be there for her 

She doesn’t want to lose me ever 

She needs my presence in her life 

but she doesn’t want to be my prospective wife. 

Eye Opener

I may not be right

But I stood up for the fight

I may not be noticed in the crowd

But I still shouted out loud

I know I ain’t strong

But I'm trying to heal

I know I am wrong

But I'm trying to be ideal

I'm not the perfect dad

But I ain’t that bad

I may not be the rational son

But played my part & never did outrun

I might have offered a bed of thorns

But I've laid sheets of comforts

My hat doesn't pull out thousand cons

But covers a million truth that hurts

A rude behavior but a good soul

A sarcastic tongue but a positive role

Does life with me look like hell?

My friend! That in time, will tell.

The Dark Side

The wind will swiftly blow,

The rivers will violently flow,

The clouds will turn pitch dark,

followed with the demented canine's bark.

Lights will turn off,

You'll hear a wild laugh.

Window panes shall crash

on every lightening slash.

Your confidence will slowly die,

Your loneliness will make you cry,

All attempts of contact would be of no use

when all hell will break loose.

It's time to worry, honey

Neither men can save you nor money

You can see the rise of my era

my strength is on its sierra.

My ire shall bring in so much pain,

that you'll dreadfully lose as I gain.

The next time I'll raise my hood,

You'll know, I am the Game and I am that damn GOOD!!

Contended with others, but hungry for more...!!

It’s pretty strange. A few years from now, I had a lot to blog about. It seemed as if all the negative facets of life hovered around me. But it’s been some time that I really didn’t pen down a few words in this space. Why? That’s a question that I ask myself almost every day and that’s why today I am going to try to reason out the delay in getting back to what I do best – blog!!

I am not denying the fact that I’d have to go through stringent times, but these so called snags have taught me to smile at their face whenever they raised their hoods at me. I never thought that I’d say this, but this part of my life, this little part right here, is called Happiness.
It took me some time but it happened at the right time that I have started to value relationships. Amidst family, relatives, friends and colleagues, I feel I am living the dream. Known to be a laid back and rather self-caring individual, it’s been more than a journey for me to reach a stage wherein I feel I not only have grown of age but also developed an incandescent personality. Most of my life, I had been a pretty calculative and meticulous person which always made my thoughts go skeptical against any random decision taken. This insatiable attitude of mine earned me leisure and peace of mind but never helped me in expanding friendship base.

Probably, the twist of fate ameliorated things around for this male chauvinist and reserved attitude of mine to change. Well, I could accredit my sister for bringing about this change in me. In a way, she set the paradigm of an ideal friend to me. Her approach earned her friends who were ready to die for her. On close diagnosis, I discovered that she had made herself accessible to her friends for any silly requirement. And somewhere that’s how she made an impression and touched the hearts of many.

The lesson learnt here is that there’s no point in fighting with near and dear ones. We can never be sure of the skin that we live in. We never know the value of people until they exist no more in our lives. And then the trauma of the guilt is endless as you live with it for the rest of your life.
Humans can enact multiple emotions. One needs to be reasonable with others but at the same time be unreasonable with oneself. The reasonability transfers positive energy to others, makes them love you for the person that you are. Some return the favour, a few others feel indebted for life at your generosity while the rest enjoy the moment, laugh and forget about it. They may never feel the need to meet you again but if they ever did, they would surely return a smile.

But hey, let’s not forget the ‘unreasonability’ part as it has its own relevance in self improvement. The guerilla tactic for success is to be never satisfied with what you have and always crave for more. Maslow’s theory could have fallen in place provided he skipped the self actualization stage of the pyramid. The cliché is to stay hungry and seek opportunities to hunt the food for thought every single time.

Another Chance....

I wish I had another chance
to change this state of trance
If time gave me a choice
I’d want you to hear my voice

The words I’ve ever said
the tears that you’ve shed
wish I could get back in time
set those days in sync and time

I know and it’s true
It’s too late to set things right
Gone are the days of blue
everything is reduced to a repentant plight

Thoughts of you rains in my mind
and continues to rewind
I tried to battle it out with force
still could not move on in due course

Destiny planned an ugly twist
I’m still here but you no more exist
Life ends but sweet memories never die
cause as long as I live, it’s never good bye.
