Should I walk on you?

Source

As I stand here

On this long path 

Obscure, undiscovered and untamed

I see my whole life ahead

Waiting for me 

To unleash 

The possibilities

And make a life 

Full of dreams turning into realities!
Should I walk on you? 

There's a long way to go

And I should choose happiness 

Above everything else.

Now it may seem hard

But that's the right thing to do

For they say

If it's good, it's never going to be easy!
Should I walk on you? 

I tried

A lot,

But can't anymore! 

Why does it feel so difficult? 

Choosing your own happiness 

Why does it sounds 

so Selfish? 

I know

I won't be happy 

If it stays the way it is.

Sure we need to 

Pay the price 

For things we choose

for Ourselves! 

Should I walk on you?

Without You

Without you,

The days would be so blue,

No evening to look forward

No reason to pick a fight or two!

Without you,

Life would be so screwed

With no one around to share the woes

All I’ll have is bad mood!

Without you,

With whom will I share my stew?

And enjoy the beautiful view

And see the night pass through.

Without you,

Shopping would be so boring

No company to roam on the streets

No roaring because of your snoring!

Without you,

Gossips wouldn’t be fun

Nothing to spice it up

No joy in putting a pun! ;)

Without you,

With whom will I cry my heart’s woes?

And throw tantrums for no reason

And get my daily dose! ;)

Without you,

Who will point and tell my flaws?

And who will laugh at my faux pas?

And who will stand for me and applause?

Without you,

The Sunday cookings wouldn’t feel new

And my odd midnight cravings?

They wouldn’t be fulfilled with full credit and due!

Without you,

Who will I tease and get all pleasure?

And the endless tickles that take away your breath

Giving me our priceless laughter together, that I treasure!

Without you,

There will be no perfections

Life will be without directions

Without any connections!

Angels into Demons

The moment I close the doors

Of my room,

And am left with me all alone

The room is filled with nothing but gloom!

The angels that were dancing in the daylight

Get all melancholic, laughing at my plight

That’s when the demons come out in the dark

And show me the reality that is so stark!

‘You’re good for nothing’

‘Nothing good have you ever done in your life,

Not a single thing’

‘You will have to wait more for your happiness’

Thoughts like these bring out all the snappiness!

No Facebook newsfeed, no tweets on Twitter,

No snaps on Snapchat, and no updates on Insta,

Nothing seems to distract away the vicious thoughts

Nothing that can vanish away the woes, no friends, no folks, not even siesta!

The more you’ll lock up yourself,

The more you’re going to get trapped

Go out and breathe away the fresh air

Glow in the sunshine and get all wrapped!

And then I open my heart

And walk my way, for a new start

Finding my inspiration, with hopes held high

Walk past the demons with relief and give a sigh!

 Cheers

Colors, Do they really define you?

In my growing years,

I was fond of white so much,

White people, white complexion

Oh! Everything that had a ‘White’ touch!

In my teenage years,

My adulation for black took birth

Shoes, dresses, earrings and bracelets

Only ‘Black’ ruled and it was totally worth!

Then came my early twenties,

My fondness for bright colours grew manifold

Red, yellow, orange and pink

Life and wardrobe were full of colours, making me bold!

But what’s there in the colour,

I really wonder?

It’s only a matter of choice

And not something that can be a blunder!

Children with fairer skin,

Always drew more attention,

But I was too naive to understand

The colour of the skin mattered to such an extension!

I too wanted to be one of those,

Cute-good-looking children

And thus my fondness for white grew

Simply to have that kind of skin!

Later I realised it was only a faux

It should be a good heart that mattered

Happy that I learnt this lesson in time

Or else dreaming for that white would have me shattered!

People never fail

To come up with suggestions

Why you're wearing this with that?

Bombarding me with all sorts of questions!

Adding colours to life

Is what matters in the end

Having a fabulous life with happiness around

Nothing can ever beat that perfect blend!

I am taking my Alexa rank to the next level with Blogchatter.

Thank you, Teacher!

I was such a naive girl

Happy in my shell, just like a pearl.

Not concerned about the world

And the people it had,

All I cared for were a bunch of friends

Who in the end made me sad!

There came teachers in my life

Just like they come in everyone else’s life

But the way they shaped my mind, and guided me through

I doubt anyone has found a teacher like you!

I was a loser lying on the ground

You picked me up and changed my life upside down.

I failed and experienced failure

But you said that’s the law of nature!

You were the reason behind my burning the midnight lamp

All I wanted was to become your champ!

Your motivation, your confidence,

Your faith and your support,

The punishment as well as the treats,

Oh, to express it all, the words fall short!

You were my mentor in every sense

It was all for you, my interest in the subjects became so intense!

You shaped my character

And made me a person worthy for the world

Taught me some great values of life

And prepared me for life that was going to get unfurled!

You were that light in the dark

Flickering brightly and brought my spark

You showed me the paths I’d never dare to choose

With you behind me, I could never make an excuse!

You pushed me beyond the limits I could ever imagine

Unleashed the new me and made me proud of my skin!

I can never thank you enough for what you have given me

Becoming worthy is the gift I want to give and see you in glee!

What you gave me, I want to take it forward

Making differences in lives will be my reward!

I am trying to take my rank to the next level with Blogchatter.

Free you, Happy You!

To the woman in my dreams

To the one, I want to be

I strive hard to come near you

But fail miserably in an attempt or two!

Handling situations

And fighting the odds with grace

Accepting things beyond my control

Make peace and be ace!

To love with compassion

And have the wisdom to fathom the world

To indulge in things and people

Living the life of inspiration is waiting to be unfurled!

To the long strides, I take

And the dream to take that perfect gait.

My head high and shoulders straight

Sparkling eyes, as I walk with aplomb.

To create magic in the words

I dream to stand out from the herd

Nothing in the world

Can stop inside that flying bird!

Yes, it’s a task

A journey through life

But I assure to meet you

One day, some day!

Stranger than Fiction

Love always dwelled upon me

Flowing from unforeseen directions, letting me be

Stories, movies, and novels that are written

Magical I felt, completely smitten!

Love comes easy and is no big deal

It is only a matter of how we feel

Who on earth doesn’t have their love?

‘Plenty’, I hear a voice from above!

All those years when I was growing

Oozes of galore were overflowing

A look from here and a compliment from there

It became quite a usual affair!

As I grew up and entered the adulthood

I left behind my thoughts from childhood

A girl this side and a woman on the other

All they did was shed their tears further.

Her boyfriend found another girl

And a new mistress of the husband was ready to unfurl

That gentleman sobbing in the corner

Found his wife sleeping with another foreigner!

Infidelity, adultery, deceiving others and telling lies

The World is full of them, and the inside walls of house cries

If you look at people you will see them smiling

But if you look deep within, you will find their sorrows piling!

Love isn’t easy as it looks

It isn’t as simple as described in the books

Love yourself first and the rest shall follow

Embrace what comes and ignore what’s hollow!

Inspiration, O Inspiration

Inspiration, O Inspiration,

Where are you lost?

I’m searching for you all over,

But you aren’t ready to come at any cost!

I’ve spend all the sunny days

Waiting for the night to bring it

Neither on early mornings nor on hazy days

You coming here don’t seem to be fit!

I tried finding you in the posts I read

I searched for you in the musings

I looked for you around me all the time

But only found you dead, in my head!!

Do you want me to tie you with a chain?

If only it was that easy and plain

I know you’re going to give me a lot of strain

And all my efforts will go in vain!

Inspiration, O Inspiration

Just so you know,

I’m not that easy as I look

See I found you, easy and slow!

O Master, you shall pay!

Source

It’s such an odd thing to lose

Time has come to give master some blues.

How dare he put the blame on me?

So easily he asked me to be on my knee.

How he forgot the service of all these years?

He made me cry and gave only tears.

How he yelled before his clan the other day?

I promise you dear, for what he did, I’ll make him pay!

The way you served everyone in the house

Be it his mistresses or his spouse.

The line was crossed when he tore away your blouse

I still can’t believe he’s such a rude louse!

I begged him, I pleaded him, I even prayed

He promised for mercy and then betrayed

One day his body will be decayed

I’ll destroy him and the message shall be conveyed.

Using my instrument, we’ll kill him first

For that’s the only way, to quench away my thirst.

We’ll bury him down and then get dispersed

Nobody shall know of our act done unrehearsed!

O Morning! Why you come?

Everyone kept a safe distance from the flames

For nobody wanted to play such dangerous games!

Games, interesting they sound, huh?

Whiles away the time and make the moment fun.

Fun, that you and I were having last night

Doing naughty little things, turning them into sweet fights.

First time it was when we moved out together

Exploring the places, oblivious to the risk rather!

Hanging out, dining in, riding on the streets

What a wonderful time it was, when we moved into the sheets!

Scared and nervous, I felt then

You held my waist and brought me close instead

It was a dark dingy place with people groping me

Just one stern look and they were ready to be on their knees.

Excitement was running in the blood,

Thrill could be felt in the nerves

Our hearts were pounding hard,

Exploring the magic that was about to get starred!

I don’t know when, I don’t know how,

I melted into your arms, and felt just wow

Right in the middle of the night

I found you cuddling me just right!

That moment and that night

I never wanted it to see the day’s light

But the sun’s rays were all ready

Showering their love, waking us up already!

Just right then, you held me tight

Holding me from back, with all your might

The warmth of your hug, and the husky hard breath

How will I ever return, this eternal debt?

O morning, why you come?

You ended it all, once which was so much fun

I hate you for this, I hate you for coming

Because of you, we now have to part our ways!

Cheers

Unraveling the Night

That strange stormy night,

All set to make me fright

Eyes all on me

Exasperating and terrifying,

Bringing me on my knee!

But I chose to run,

Run away from all of you

To a place where I could be free from all the woes

Place full of freedom

Place without anyone dumb

Place where I can succumb on happiness

Place where it will let me be

Place where I could just breathe

Place where I could make a choice

Dreams taking dimensions, ready to flee!

I wish you could come along,

I don’t mind even if you don’t

It is always better to have you by my side

Nevertheless, it’s a lonely world, and I should learn to confide!

You know I always loved wearing skirts

But you never let me don one

They’ll stare, and it won’t look nice

You should know it all, now don’t spoil all the fun!

I just want to run, run and run so far

Oblivious to its ways and nescient to its scars

So what it will hurt,

So what if it makes me fall

It will only teach me something

And make an undaunted soul.

O this night,

This scary, scary night

I dare you come again

And I will welcome you with all the might!

Stay or Walk Away

You and me

Makes us we

Made for each other they say

Not a single clue I see 

To everything they claim!

No sounds amongst the folks

No words when alone

No sharing of thoughts

No fun and laughter

Smiles seem to disappear,

The moment I come near.

What is it, I'm trying to figure 

May be a hallucination or a reality I fear!

Sometimes I wonder, why I am with you

There's not a single thing that you want me to do for you

Experts say spending time, traveling to places makes things better.

What I experience is, the more we accompany each other,

The more we go to places,

Makes me realize, 

what a hollow thing we follow!

Tiffs turn into fights 

The frugal talk that we barely share

Vanishes all away!

The only time you want to come to me

Is when your body starts craving for its needs! 

What should I do,

I don't understand 

You don't like the way I talk,

You look with repugnance, the way I dress

You don't let me be

What should I call this,

Too much space or 

Too little love?

What I say, never means anything to you

My value in your life, is just next to zero!

Should I walk away from all of this?

But you're a humble man they say!

Or should I let the situation be like this

Stay with you forever and die inside steady and slow!

Thoughts.. Where art thou lost?

On my way to home

I discovered a few lanes untamed

Got an idea to explore them one day

But then work, life, career occurred to dismay

Sometimes, it's so difficult to keep pace with life

How do I get over this maze and get it solved?

Do you have any special technique

To overcome all the hues

I'll be waiting in the comments sections to read all your muse!!

P.S- Everything around me is in a pandemonium state, and I am just falling out of ideas to post on my blog. Hence a short poem mirroring my state :P

Listen.. they're Talking!

Perching on my desk,

Brooding over these thoughts

Last night,

What I witnessed,

Was something perturbing me lots!

I rise in the morning

And witness these sights

Sight that lynched my neighbour next door,

Sight that celebrated my success to the core.

The enigmatic beauty

And the magnificent views

Impairs everything when I see

Rapes, murders, trafficking all over the news!

The first time,

When I saw a shooting star in the sky,

The first time,

I won my favourite game,

The first time,

When I fell in love,

And the first time,

I felt that steamy kiss,

All these first moments,

Kind of stirred my soul

Those spark in my eyes

And the élan to do more,

Nothing in the world

Can stop me from reaching the shore!

Eyes,

My eyes and yours

Talk a lot

I assure.

You hide so much from me

But they’re loyal,

And tell me all of it

The moment they see me!

They’re pure and clear

There are lies and there is fear

Anger when they learn the harsh truth

Hapless when they’re helpless

Happiness when love shines bright

Illuminates with joy when things go right!

Of course I love Nature.. Don't you?

I first wandered in the jungles

And admired our nature

In awe of it I learned

How I can get things of my stature!

I loved the animals, and their pretty raw skin

Scraping them off for myself, I started committing sin

Oh! Leaves are out fashion, plus aren’t that durable

How about cutting the trees, looks like my problem is curable!

With pride in my walk and anger in my eyes

Stick in my hands and power in my feet

I walk ahead, creating a sham for everybody

With the intention to deceive, I put a fancy smile to greet!

My son loves turtle, and daughter adores birds

How about keeping them with us and become those nerds?

For no matter how these feel,

All we do is ensnarl them and force them to kneel!

Of course we are responsible citizens

We don’t litter our surroundings

We take care of our nature

The rest what’s happening is not our bindings!

Frightening Glory

The days were bright and night was cool,

Dazzling sky in the night and sunshine in the noon.

Flowers and petals,

Trees and leaves,

Ready to swirl and play and wave,

I climbed on them and became so brave!

The green grass beneath

And that pretty lass in the corner

Devoured in sunbath

Mellowed with her book,

Snooped from the corner of her eye

Caught my eye sight and locked it there!

She knew then and there

About my mundane glare!

All she did was smile at me

And in an iffy, she heard my heart’s plea!

I moved around the city and enjoyed its sight

The hustle and the bustle gave me a fright!

The rattling sound of engine, the chattering of children

The voice of the vendor, and the music so loud

Exploring the routes full of crowd,

I reached my house and entered the room

From the narrow window, I savored the beautiful view!

Looking from a height so above,

It’s terrifying and thrilling to see things I love.

The mankind looks like a toy from here

Moving cars, walking beings, flying birds

A perfect sight, I completely endear!

But one fine day, when I enter the house

Devastation is the only thing that I found

Broken chairs, hammered rooms,

Destructing my dreams, gifting me wounds

Collapsed should I say,

Crumpled walls or crumpled voice,

It’s hard for me to figure it out!

Earthquake they say who did this to me

I’m responsible for it, is what my heart utters

You disturbed your mother,

You destroyed her, just to get an impeccable view from above!

You shattered her in ways you can’t think of,

It’s just a warning, she tends to give!

For you need to wake up from your fantasy,

And protect her like your child

Or else, there will be no glory

But only things full of spiflicated stories!

Happy Reading

It used to.. But not Anymore!

It hurts no more when minutes and hours and days pass by,

But you don’t choose to say a word.

Our long drives where the only sound that is heard,

Is of the song on the radio!

Or when I say a goodbye wishing you the best for your day

And all you choose to do is walk by without even giving a simple look!

It hurts no more... it hurts no more!

When you secretly stalk your ex and show that it’s all good between us!

When you snap at me for the simple things I do, for the excitement I show, for the love I express, for the laughters that I want to bring!

When I lie beside you all night, trying to curl up in you,

And all you do is shift away, keeping a distance and giving me blues!

When the only thing that I crave for is your gentle touch, filled with love,

Only to realize that you don’t touch me, except when you want to have sex!

It hurts no more... it hurts no more!

When you don’t notice me anymore,

Or even when you do, it’s more about how shabby I am,

How unorganized I stay, how there is no sense of responsibility I have!

That all I do is bicker, pick up random things and have a tiff with you for no reason!

When you say that you don’t feel attracted towards me anymore!

That you have no interest in me or my life whatsoever!

That I should mind my own fucking business!

That I should do, eat, go, dress, buy, do anything in the world,

Without you being around or you giving me any company!

It hurts no more... it hurts no more!

When you don’t talk to me at all... for days!

When you say you get bored with me and deny moving out just because it’s the two of us!

When you refuse to take a walk with me,

Or refuse to hold my hand, plant me a kiss, come near me and make real love!

When I see myself all drowned in you, liking things only for you, and you in return pay no heed to what I have in my heart for you!

The only thing that ever mattered to me was love, was you... but now, not anymore!

For it hurts no more to be a body without soul, to have a life without love, to be all numb while having all the sense!

It hurts no more... it hurts no more!

Shed leaves.. Only!

Summers have gone by

Leaving above us this clear sky.

No more heat, no more loo

And I’ll be this happy, I had no clue!

The shedding of leaves

Can be seen from the ground

Standing head held high

Look, what a beauty I found!

Passing by this narrow lane

Envisaging the beauty around us

Life should be like this scenic view

Black and white without any fuss!

No hiding of things,

No treachery whatsoever

No speculations at any cost,

True feelings expressed in best of endeavour!

Just think for a moment

What a glory it may bring

No murkiness, no cheating

Only words of praises that people will sing!

As when things stay hidden

Devastation is the only thing they bring!

Why not just come close to the souls you love

Confess and clear things, and rise above!

For later, it will only be darkness in the future

Duskiness stored for the person of your stature

Just like the trees shoves off its leaves

Standing alone and isolated, ready to be taken away by the thieves!

And when you have it all with you,

Please do not go and become an egoist.

For its love and support of people around you

Your work and their blessings equally coexist!

Nerds in Herds.. #MondayMusings

I’m really humble with people,

At every point of time

What I don’t get is,

Why do they behave so grime!

It’s courtesy what I’ve learnt,

Its being polite what is taught

It’s respecting other’s opinions is what I believe in

Then why do people tend to walk all over, and think it’s a win!

Let me talk and voice my opinion

Listen to the point and then draw conclusion

Without knowing the whole story,

Please don’t create any confusion!

Subtlety is mistaken for being weak

Kindness is replaced with being fake

What virtue is it that they understand

Let me know, and I promise, it’ll be all your command!

Ignore the pride and come to reality

You are nothing but a bunch of a skite

Allow the freedom of speech to others as well

Or else they also possess the power to bite!

People, they’re weird species

Patience, tolerance, forbearance are a few words

Which gets so difficult to understand

For these clump of herds!

I sigh sometimes and forego it

For when time will come

They’ll automatically learn it.

All I await is for that time to come

When there will be virtues like

Maturity and sensibility to name some.

Musings by the Sea

It was a bright sunny morning, when the boat was ready to sail

Father squalled, and called out my name, asking me to reach without fail.

Its full father, with so many people on it, I exclaimed

Don’t bother, just sit down, I promise you won’t be maimed!

The sand on the shore, and the stones hurting my feet

Handed me a collection of shells so neat!

The girl next to me is trying to make way

Moving a little forward and ready for the sway!

The bucket in my hand

And the thrill in my eyes

All set leave

This city full of spies!

Thousands of sailors have come together

Giving wings and not just feather

Wandering their hearts, chasing their dreams

Filled with hope and a fighting spirit it seems!

It’s going to be a bouncy way ahead

Rippling and riding over its head

In some hours, I’ll be at the other end of the world

So close to my desires, ready to be unfurled!

It happened all in a jiffy

Hoping it doesn’t get iffy!

Coming so close to what I’ve always wanted

Just a little more effort, my heart said undaunted

You’re very close to your destination

Get ready for this incredible revelation

For giving up will leave nothing in your hand

So keep your head high and take your own stand!

 Happy Reading

Cheers
