Fairy tale

Well, I too loved
Loved hard
And gave in all
For my fairy tale
Had luck smiling
For a while
With prince charming
By my side
To stay in a palace
Life of comfort
Were usual expectations
Follow the norms
Be one among the lot
The king will be the centre
I revolving around 
In one of his many orbits

Then the bad times kicked in
And shook me up from my slumber

Life though short
I wanted of wonder
Being true to myself
By not merely 
following the crowd

The comfort offered 
didn't please my soul
To silence my voice 
And lipsync my Hero
Wasn't  ready to accept
That as my life score

So left it all
Fell hard
Fought brutal
Still the fight is on
But I'm glad
I choose to be a 
Hero 
Of my own

Places

The beaches The bridges The exotic colonies The party vibe The fresh air The lanes, the bylanes The village Mind health The unity The brotherhood The ashram The spiritual boom And  Yet, I get a feeling of  Disgust Anguish Helpless Mad anger Whoever said, Said pretty well That, it's the people Who make the place...

Pyar ki Umar

Har pyaar ki ek umar hoti hai.. Pyaar mai.. Koi galat nahi, Koi sahi nahi.. Koi bewafa nahi, Koi khudgar.... Shayad thoda khudgarz hai  Toh bhi sahi Par jaisa apne Zakir Bhai kehte hai.. Har pyar ki ek umar hoti hai.. Woh janam leta hai.. Phalta phulta hai.. Jawani mai saara, Brhamand aur taare Dikhata hai.. Umar badhte badhte.. Khushi aur gham  Dono hi lifafe mei lapet Taufa de jata hai Aur budhape mei.. Saari yaadein dhundli hone lagti hai.. Pehchaan apni mitne lagti hai.. Phir kabhi aise bhayankar sapne dikhata hai Jaise ki woh iss duniya se chale gaye.. Ghabra kar jab tum apni Neend Puri hone se pehle Hi uth jathe ho toh.. Tumhe samajh aata hai ki.. dhat pagle.. Woh toh sirf tumhari duniya se chale gaye.. Iss dharti wali duniya se nahi Unki toh nayi behtar zindagi shuru ho rakhi hai.. Jo mazedaar hai, jo dhueedar hai Tumhare bina.. Par ye dil kambaqt thehra.. Jo aaj bhi nahi samajh raha.. Ki Har pyar ki ek umar hota hai.. Aur hamari pyaar ki umar

Me Vs Me

I recently happened to watch a biopic about a revolutionary, Shaheed Sardar Udham Singh. It took me four good days to watch that movie till the end. The movie wasn't bad, nor was I busy. There was too much of our country's history to revisit, process and too strong emotions to deal with. I don't want to get into its details, cause this platform isn't the right one for it. But I would like to share my understanding of it. The main event around which the movie is based is the Jallianwala bagh massacre. It was an order given by a single outsider, but carried out by several people of our very own clan. A single person can behave erratically for some time. But what do you call those who had sense, yet blindly got led on such an erratic pathway. Not to forget with ammunition in their hands. The Brigadier - General is responsible for that massacre. But aren't those who carried out his orders, without giving a second thought accountable too?? The external force can harm...
