सफर







जाने कल क्या हो,
किसे खबर.
बस इस राह पर,
बद्ते जाए कदम.



मंज़िल मिले या ना मिले,
किसे खबर,
रहेगी ये राह,
रहेगा ये सफर...


जाने कितने रंग,
ज़िंदगी दिखाती है.
दो पल की खुशी,
फिर इंतज़ार करती है.
इस धूप- छाव के खेल को,
खेलते है हम,
चाहे कुछ भी हो,
बढ़ते जाते है हम...



मंज़िल मिले या ना मिले,
किसे खबर,
रहेगी ये राह,
रहेगा ये सफर...


आते है कई पल,
जब दिल रोता है.
अकेलेपन का एहसास,
हमे जो होता है...


करते है इंतज़ार,
उस हमसफ़र का..
जो बने अपना साथी,
इस सफ़र का...


साथी मिले या ना मिले,
किसे खबर...
रहेगी ये राह,
रहेगा ये सफ़र....

I'd written this 2 years back.

My dad read it. He came to me and asked "Did you ACTUALLY write this? "

The True Companion





He was walking a dark and an endless road. He looked around, and saw people walking like him too. Like zombies, lifeless, numb and in their own worlds, they all walked. Everyone saw a distant light. A little flash everyone was constantly walking towards. Some called it happiness, some satisfaction, some called it peace. They all were heading towards their own individual light.

He saw many , who found their light. Bringing smiles to their lifeless faces. But his light always seemed far. He had no choice. He had to walk, looking at the light, which kept moving away from him.

At a certain point of time, all of them found the lights they were looking for. He was left , all alone making his way through that dark road. He consoled himself, shed some tears to heal the pain. The light was now appearing nearer. He started thinking about finding his own light, experiencing its very first ray. As it would enlighten his heart and ultimately his soul...

Then finally the time came. When his light was before him. Looking straight ahead, he saw the light exploring the endless road in front of him. He closed his eyes, the days of darkness and misery flashed before him. They'd surely taught him something. Those days had now become a part of him.

He turned his back towards the light and started walking the endless dark road again..

=========


The darkness. Its the best companion one can have. It hides the world around you. It makes you feel that you're all alone. We actually are. All of us.

PS- Its even more fun, if you've got someone to hold onto while you make your way through the darkness. =D

Once Upon A Time....



Once upon a time, there was "Love"..


When the changing seasons of life didn't matter,
As long as they got a glimpse of each other...


When they didn't even lay a finger on each other,
But made all the love they wanted to, just by looking in each other's eyes....


When the world seemed too small a place for them,
On shutting their eyes, they would be alone in their own universe, in each other's arms....


But now......

All two lovers think,
is to shut the door behind them,
And do things they want to do...

"Physical Desperation" is the new love...


But maybe...

There's still some love, in some corner of our heart. We've just forgotten about it.

As love never dies. My love. Your love. Our love.

Talking to the Rain...




A little patch of light, unravels little pearls of water falling from the sky. A cool breeze blows over me. Whispering into my ears. Taking me back to the times, when life was "life" for many reasons.


Times have changed, so have I. But life... Maybe its just the same. Maybe the sound of rain drops is trying to console me. Maybe the wind is trying to tell me.

Its not so bad. It never was.


It rains. Filling the silence around me with the pitter patter of rain drops.

It rains.Filling my soul, with hopes.

It rains. Telling me something that I always deny....


Its not so bad. It never was.

We'll Keep Moving...






When we were small...
Life was like a seashore...so less waves...
We're heading towards the ocean now....
Waves will hit us...
But we'll keep moving...
We'll cling on to each other and keep moving...



===============================================


This post is dedicated to you.

Be the Light...





Sometimes we purposely put ourselves in a state of darkness, just to see if anybody comes to help us. Sadly , people hardly come. The human tendency to think about others, is only in times of need. Mostly its the need, that drives us towards other people.


At times, all of us hit an emotional rock bottom. Where this heart we've got, weeps, as it waits for somebody to understand its pain. Yes, we wait. That's what we do. Cry a little and then wait.



This is our world–ɂ. People are always looking for some love, some concern. Everybody wants to be loved. Nobody wants to love.


Just recently, I realised something. We all keep waiting. Nobody actually takes a step. Makes an effort. Shows some concern. We expect love. We rarely show it.


There's a greater degree of happiness in giving love, than receiving it.


Make someone smile. Show some love. Let there not be a reason behind it.


So pick up that phone and talk to that friend who's been missing since days , tell that crazy friend how much you love him, wish that friend good luck for his new job.


Everybody is looking for some light in their lives. Be the light.

In a Bloody Hurry...





Sometimes, this mind of ours presses the rewind button.

Takes us back to the time, when life could be called "life" for many reasons.

When the dining rooms, were filled with sounds of laughter. Echoing everywhere were voices, of each and every member of the family. Even little Kevin, was heard, and everybody laughed to his innocent jokes. Nobody really cared about what was on the Tee Vo.

A time when bad days, didn't matter, because we could always sit and talk to somebody. A busy daddy, would leave his office early, just to catch up with his family. Nobody was in a bloody hurry.

Yes, occasions were celebrated with more joy and enthusiasm. The places were lit with faces. Smiling faces. Nobody cared what you were wearing or what was in dinner.
A time when we used to wait desperately for a family outing. The entire week, we had a smile on our face. Thinking about the fun we would have. Now, a family outing means sacrificing a weekend.

Yes, a mommy's hug was the best gift. Now it has been replaced by that game console.
Times have changed. We've become involved in our lives. Involved in a bloody hurry.

Looking back at those times, I feel that, We've come way too far. We've left behind those priceless smiles, those joyous laughter sessions. Those little things that truly made us feel grateful about our existence.



============

Its been a while since, I wrote something. This blog post is an attempt to break the freakin' ice.

Anyhow. I really think that back in the old days. Life was much much better. Maybe because we were kids that time. But still I think, it actually was much better back then.

What do you guys think?
