Believe



I believe in broken kisses, which almost touch the lips of our soul.
There is a certain honesty to them, which makes that one moment of vulnerability, the purest of them all.
I believe in empty houses, which have the remnants of dissipating laughter.
The void of which, reminds us of fleeting instances of happiness.
I believe in happy tears, which overwhelm us.
It reminds us of our susceptibility to love, in a world that haunts the souls of our ancestors.
I believe in bittersweet endings, which are never meant to be.
It makes us brave, because not all relationships can have a purpose.
I believe in our insecure demons, which terrifies our spirit.
It gives us hope and courage, for not all demons are under our beds.
I believe in a lover’s laugh, that lifts your conscience.
For a plastic world can hold only so much of reality.
I believe in half-hearted smiles, which reassures us.
Only the bravest of them all, can hold the burden of mankind.
I believe in the courage of a mother, that accepts our adulthood.
For protection is an instinct, strength is a skill.
I believe in singing meadows and unfiltered sunshine.
Because fresh air is a luxury, not everyone can afford.
I believe in special people, that aren’t so sure.
Not everyone can have the faith to be there for themselves.
I believe in a thousand happy tales, which surround us.
Negativity is ease to accept, difficult to overcome.
I believe in the tomorrow, that haunts us.
Because only the wait for tomorrow, can make us live our today.

Unburden

Unburden your mind, It wasn't meant to be. Whatever you thought it was. You have to set it free. Unclog your soul, Let the spirit wish it free Let your thoughts reside In a 'you' you ought to be. Feel the rush Of those imaginary trees Understand the point Of a reality full of glee Heal yourself Cause no other can be The brilliance you are In your imperfect spree See who you are The way you saw yourself At 5, while you fought Those demons from the Kelp Free your entangles Cause they need to be felt Breathe a little easy Loosen that belt. In this inexplicable universe You are your entity Only if you want You can be set free.

Life

I have the life. The ‘textbook’ dream life. I have a car, with four rings on its rear end. A house, with more rooms than people it accommodates. I possess all the branded synthetic skins you can think of, from the Gs to the Ps to the As. My wardrobe covers it all. I have an over paid staff who is at my beck and call, and an overtly glamorous social circle, who really has nothing better to do in life. I have it, I have it all. Even though I wasn’t born with these luxuries, I have them. You ask how? Cause I married the right not-so-beautiful guy. The man I call my husband. I use to be ambitious, I was. That is, until I hit 25. Then my life changed. I had to succumb to the ‘Indian society’ laws. I was a girl, and it didn’t matter if I didn’t have a career. ‘I don’t have to provide for a family, that was my husband’s responsibility.’ Of course, I didn’t agree to that, poor men in India, such great pressure on their shoulders. But my parents didn’t listen to me, I was a child they said,...

Me, at last.

  Love affairs and tattered tales, Is what life makes us to be, In this hopeless place, amidst this maze. I tried to find you and me. Not a single drop to spare, Nor a word left to cease, In this broken glass chamber. I tried to find you and me. To the mountains high and valleys low, We could have run Wild and Free, In these shattered dreams And empty spaces. I tried to find you and me. And then the clouds, turned black and blue, And the winds made whorly woos, In the storm of fearsome light, I tried to fight with fearless fright. But alas! The world had other clans, And down they went, my sacred plans, Leaving me with bruises to hide, And a world that is broken inside my eyes. Still they wonder what could I be, what in the dying light did I see? Now in the dark, when thoughts disobey, I am trying to find another way, In all my waking moments passed, I am trying to find, Me at last .
