THE MOUNTAINS AND THE ICY RIVER
The "Machchapuchchre" peak of the Himalayan mountains in Nepal |
Freed to touch the mountains and the icy river
Touching all that it wants to touch
When the chains are dissolved
In a jump off that platform of restriction, rules and roles.
Forgetting all that's called Life of just movement
From one day to another.
But I lived that very Life
From one experience to another.
NO!
Don't bring me back.
Your calm authoritative voice pulls me back.
My Freedom sucked into my vacuumed Heart.
Sealed to be unheard.
You Smile, thinking, believing I've given up on my Dreams and Hopes of Freedom.
NO!
You forget
My Freedom is sealed
But, preserved... living...
Only growing stronger.
You shall see
I shall fly again
Flying high touching the mountains and the icy river

Choose To Step In
A society I dreamt of
A society promised to me
In silent voices, growing louder
And stronger.
I walked in through the door
Only to find that the door
Was only within
The Society... within?
Only talk, talk, talk.
More talk and passion.
They say actions speak louder than words
Somehow my heart wants to talk
It looks for comrades,
Those who thirst for true freedom.
Freedom from dogma, prejudice, hate,
Expectations, bias, anger...
Maybe, just maybe
I can find enough to...
To see the dream coming to reality.
Maybe, just maybe
I stop waiting and start creating
a free society for all those
who choose to step in.

When The Eyes Went Dead - II

WALKING OUT THE ROOM
Journey in their unending cycle
around its axis, above my head.
The closed doors and windows
Lock me inside this room of words and lessons.
I look in front, at the very source;
The authority who takes it for granted
That I come to his territory for knowledge.
Sitting at the same spot for years
Teaching new citizens brimming with youth and vigour,
With monotony that overpowers
The unique young souls dreaming in this very room.
I look around at the juvenile faces,
Caged Inside a World of Words |
Creates a panic in the depths of my soul.
Do they not see it?
Do they not feel it in their bones?
Use your voice!
These words, these opinions.
All that we are told to know,
Is it enough? Is it relevant?
Question them!
Question them again and again!
Not inside, but outside these walls
The reality calls me,
The truth is waiting to be discovered.
How can I sit idle amongst these souls
deaf to the cries of the world?
How can I listen to these words
long lost their meaning?
Years of monotony hasn't changed the reality.
Years of knowledge hasn't changed our flaws.
Then why am I wrong when I cry for a change?
These concrete walls can
no longer lock my dreams in.
The closed doors and windows can
no longer blind me from the truth.
His voice can no longer drown the screams outside.
I stand up amidst the sighs of surprise.
Walking out the room, I free my soul,
I welcome the change, I finally live my life.

I AM NOT A REBEL
But what I feel is wrong is just not right.
How can I be expected to nod
When my soul is screaming out NO!
You think you have a hold over me
Just because of the years you own.
But my dear its not how long you have lived,
But how you have lived that counts.
My lack of years are made up by my soul
These eyes of mine see what you don't
What you push away as insignificant
Glows with its utmost shine in my eyes.
You put on a stern frown to show your authority
But I in smiles live,
Because what I see as life, you can comprehend never.
I have tried my best to show you
What secrets this life has revealed to me
But you ignore, avoid and overlook
Saying I am just a young rebel talking no sense.
You lay so much importance to petty things
And command I do so too.
But tell me my dear how can I?
How can I dedicate my life to petty things
When life waits for me with open arms.
I am not a rebel,
But I am a lover.
Thirsty for what life has to show to me.
I wish I had enough words
To make you understand what I mean.
I don't mean to offend, annoy or protest
But I cannot agree when my soul disagrees now can I?
You think what is in front of you is of importance,
But I know what is inside is more.
I am not a rebel,
But I am a lover
Only listening to my heart like all lovers do.

Sorry for Today... Promise it gets Better
This is a public apology to all those who have messaged me and called me, and tried their very best to reach me but in vain. I know I haven’t responded well to your messages and calls, or rather haven’t responded at all. I am truly sorry!
I do this not intentionally, but I do this because I am young. Right now, this very moment in my life is very crucial to what I shall be for the rest of my life. What i do today will decide who I will be tomorrow. That is why I am always somewhere doing something, that seems insignificant to the common eye, but means something to mine.
Being so inexperienced it is also hard for me to manage things. More stress laid on management of time. That is why I need you to bear with me now. This is how it is now, but I promise it will get better, I will get better. I am young and on my path to learning.
I hold all my friends close to my heart. That is why even though I may not stay in close contact with you now, but I am confident that I hold you dear in my heart. With all the love you have for me, I ask you to forgive me for what I do now and stay with me until the better tomorrow....
