Hunting Happiness

Throwing yourself onto the bed every evening after a stressful day is the thing you enjoy most these days. You may be successful, earning good, own a BMW and a beautiful apartment but your bald forehead may not be shining that way. When you look at the mirror, an unknown agony seems ruling into your eyes. The wrinkles on your cheek crucifies your living. You know you have enough reasons to smile but you don't really want to. You also don't have that courage to weep in the corner because you realize that the weight of the tear drops are too heavy to carry. Well, an attempt to get a fresh breeze in your balcony will indemnify your existence. Now you can see the color of the sky has so much changed. It has been so long since you looked up there. The nature just faded away its colors and you cannot remember what actually it looked like. Sadness rises along with the sun everyday and never sets with it. Your own shadow disappears into the piles of files you play with every day. You don't want to bother remembering those horrible faces yelling on your head all day. Biggest question of faith lies within yourself. Is this the future you were planning to live all your life?

You were busy dreaming your future while the time gave you million keys to explore yourself. You were busy improving your handwriting when your life was drawing wonders for you. You were busy whistling when the nature was dancing in the harmony. While the stars were smiling above your head, you were busy growing up. Those stars seemed so distant because the dreams were right in your head. You were hopefully happy for your future, not for the present. World seemed so grateful with the heavy mark sheet you carry. Everyone was satisfied and so were you. The thing that chained all the lives around was a little hope. Hope for a bright future, that will actually reveal the meaning of life. You knew they will not accept the meaning, destiny will define. Rather they wanted you to define your destiny. You never wondered what will happen 25 years down the line.

Now you start wondering, despite having a successful past, so called childhood, you are not happy enough. You have no courage to stand alone and enjoy the rain. You are worried about the assignment your boss just assigned or about improving your clientele. You are more concerned for the things that will ultimately leave you with just yourself. Fire of agony destroys your self-being. The process will continue till the vigour lets you dance in the innocence of yourself. And a beautiful thing starts, compromise. You start compromising with yourself, after seeing some more shiny heads around. While returning after your so called 10-7 routine, you made it for yourself, those confused emotions boost your confidence. I'm not the only one, heart says. Some faces are sad, some are confused, one doesn't know what is happening with his life, many have no idea, very few are happy, probably pretending. You keep walking with the throng that don't know the destiny. And when the drove disappears somewhere into that throng of abandoned hopes, you will find yourself standing alone and waiting someone to take you away from this world when your own shadow ceases to be your friend.

I am Nothing...

I am a vacant emotion, I travel miles away, To explore myself, And return empty hand, I am a staunch journey, You can travel with me, But you can't mislead me, I am the time, You can enjoy me, But you can't hold me, I am the rays of light, You can feel me, But you can't touch me, I am a mistake, You can correct me, But you can't erase me, I am the breeze, You can breathe me, But you can't see me, I am that little hope, You can live with me, But you can't destroy me, I am a piece of happiness, You can be with me, But you can't ruin my smile, I am the truth, You can accept me, But you can't change me, I am an imagination, You can pursue me, But you can't stop me, I will travel miles away, Just to be with myself, To find my existence, To explore my destiny, I will run down the horizon, I will leap above universe, The stars will smile, And I will define myself, You will starve to the end, Trying to make me re

Last Night I Dreamed of You

Last Night I Dreamed of You, You were flying really high, Higher than the birds could fly, Those clouds were beneath you, And dreams above the blue sky. Last Night I Dreamed of You, Sailing through the intricate harbor, You were busy puncturing the tides, Higher than your hopes, Still making way for your rides. Last Night I Dreamed of You, You were leading the light, Through the tunnel of darkness, Victory was shining at the end, Like the diamond sparkles. When I woke up this morning, And the sun went above horizon, There you were inside the mirror, Standing with a vacant emotion, Petrified with your own aspiration.

You are brave, You are human !!

You are brave, I'm weak, You enjoy rain, I suffer, Inside these grills, I do nothing, I cant break it because you made it, To behold my weakness, And you never knew I can't breathe, You made shelter to protect your family, And took me away from my home, You have brains, so you write about freedom, You have dreams, so you pursue liberty, You have voices, so you discuss about rights, You are human, so you talk about Humanity !!

उत्सव

तिमी आयौ, मैले उत्सव मनाएँ, तिमी हाँस्यौ, हामी उत्सव मनायौँ, तिमी गयौ, मैले फेरि उत्सव मनाएँ, तर... यदि जानुनै थियो भने, तेसरि नहाँसेकी भए हुन्थ्यो।।

Dear Life

Dear life, Do you remember, How beautiful you were, When we were kids, You and I were best friends, We traveled together, We dreamed together, When the world said, You and I are stupid, We never quit dreaming, We used to climb trees, We used to run on the slopes, And used to hunt the stars, We didn't know we could fall, And we conquered the success. Dear life, Now you are grown up, And you never realize, How ugly you are, Still the world says, You are smart enough, But you aren't my best friend, We don't travel together, We don't dream together, We can't climb a tree, Because we're afraid of falling, When the world admires you, You weep in the corner, When I believe you are brave, You just pretend to be !!
