That Night!



I don’t know what struck me. I thought I was in senses. But then there was something that made the whole night so blur, and I hadn’t a pint. I wasn’t intoxicated or injected or injured, but then there was something that made the events of the night so messed. I am trying, trying as hard as I can, to think logically, to be wise and not act foolishly. But it’s all in vain.

I have had my falls, a lot many of them too. But then there was a jolt that jerked me to stand up. It gave me confidence to think hard and to be who I was. I believe I was confident, could face any challenge and could be who I was! But then there was something in the night that made all that confidence dwindle. I don’t think there was a fault in me, I don’t think there was something awkward, but then there was something in the night that made me doubt my judgment.

I am thinking hard, I can’t be such a fool. I try to be reasonable, evaluate every move I made. What was it that was missing? What was it that I did wrong? And then, just when I started recording it, it hit me like the big bang, and just as it brought the World into being, I realized what happened that night.

It was you, all along, you and only you. Ages had passed since you had laid eyes on me; ages had passed since I had seen you. I don’t know about you, but I had certain expectations from me.  I wanted to be perfect, so that you could fall for me all over again; I wanted to be far much better than you had thought I would be. And though I tried to be the best I can, there was something missing in me. You would look pretty I knew. The world would be around you, I knew. And I had to be better than the rest, so that you could be proud of me.

I got dressed the best I could, tried to be as gentlemanly as I could. And when standing at the threshold of the gate, everything seemed to be so meager that couldn’t hold. And then the unbelievable happened. And I laid my eyes on you. You were the true caricature of an angel, you were the God’s idea of princess. The night lit up with your beauty. And as for me, I have no idea, as I was in a fairy tale and a princess was walking towards me.

I fumbled I guess, I am not sure. I couldn’t move my glare away from you. I should have tried a little harder, to look a little better, I thought. But then your smile and those glistening eyes assured me. And that’s what made the night stay still for me.

Chal Daaru Peete Hai!

Samay se chura kar kuchh waqt, Zindagi jeete hai. Chal daaru peete hai... Wo sapno ki chadar jo fat gayi hai, Nashe me hi sahi, Aaj usko seete hai, Chal daaru peete hai... Usko bata do ki ab aur intezar nahi uska, Uske intezar me na jane kitne din, mahine, saal bus yun hi beete hai, Chal daru peete hai... Zindagi me hasil karne the jo mukaam, sharab k nashe me hi sahi, Aaj unhe jeete hai... Chal daru peete hai... Gamon Ko chipa kar khusiyan batein Chehare pe hasi ka ek aur nakab pahne.. Chal daru pite hai.... Yaadon ki baarat me khuch pal bitate hain Thoda thoda yaad kartein hain... Chal daru pite hain... Khuch pal ke liye he sahi  Samay ko dokha detein hai. Chal daru piten hain Written By an Unkown Writer!! But must say "Chal Daaru Peete Hai!"

From A Broken Heart!

What shall I say, it’s a mystery! Whom I thought to be my better half, Turned out to be a burden on me! I was happy earlier, When there was no one to prey. Though there was a hidden longing To meet someone to enrich my day! Then I saw you, And felt the urge to be with you. You were so loving and caring I felt heavenly being near you. What happened suddenly? I can’t remember. I was basking in your love, When you showed me your fury. Things felt apart so quickly There was no glue to stick them together. You left blaming for the runt As I lay there shattered at the loss. Since then I stay in despair Aloof from happiness of yesteryears. Idiotically waiting for someone To embrace and make me whole again.

Women - Do I Need Say More

Today is Women's Day, to be honest, which day isn't! The past year and the beginning of 2018 has seen a lot of movements to support & strengthen women. What everybody does not realize that women or the feminine gender is the as much an integral part of the fabric as any other being. There was a beautiful movie that was based society without women. It was complete chaos! I believe women are special in their own way, and in no way they need to prove anything to anybody. Rather, every day, they should feel special. They do so much, yet demand so little. Be it mother, girlfriend, wife, daughter sister, they embrace and absorb so much. This is to all women - grandmothers, mothers, teachers, aunts, sisters and nieces. If you could look past the flash light, If you could look into the future, There is darkness, There is nothingness without you. If we could understand you, If we could know you, We might not talk, We might not stand next to you. Happy Women...
