Doom

A storm so furious
razed the homes
and threw the trees
like ragged dolls

A blinding flash
lashed on the mortals
by the immortal himself
sign of his fury

A torrential rain
making a mockery
of elixir of life
going on endlessly

A ravaging wind
blowing away
the shreds of hope
reciding in your heart

All you creations of god
a harbinger of doom it is
harbinger of times
when all that there will be
is darkness

All you creations of god
his wrath will end it all.
a ball of flame
and then ashes all around......

From the egg to the Sky

From one little white egg
came out a tiny birdie
eyes closed and feathers ruffled
the cutest birdie
her mother had ever seen

As the seasons passed
the eyes opened
and the wings too grew
before her mom's eyes
the birdie transformed into a dove

Tears of joy and tears of sorrow
filled the momma birdie's eye
when her baby went out

Memories of the nest tucked in her heart
and the dreams of the world in her eyes
she flew away to explore the unknown

Fell down quite many times
but picked herself up that many times
found many friends and foes
and found new love too

Was cheated and trampled upon
but also loved and cared for
lessons of the world learnt
a stronger bird she became

With confidence in her mind
and destiny in her hands
she soar away
into the world she now knew
into the sunset she dreamt of......

another random one!

आँखों में उनकी
देखा था मैंने
एक वचन
एक सपना
कल के हमारे
आशा एक होने की
आशा साथ निभाने की
आशा
हमारी खुशियों की
किन्तु अचानक
ज़िन्दगी में मेरी
तूफ़ान जो आया
कहर उसका
बहुत ढाया
आशा निराशा
पहचान ना रही
किम्कर्ताव्यविमूध सी
खो गयी
वादियों में उन
सपने जिसके तुमने दिखाए थे
एक पल में बदल गयी
तेरी मेरी कहानी
एक पल में बदल गयी
तेरी मेरी जिंदगानी

the dentist's tale

Well since long I have been absent from this blog, mostly because I am lazy and also because I had nothing to write about! Now that something interesting is happening with me, I thought why not share! This post is about dentists, my apologies to all my dentist friends reading this ;) Recently I have been attacked by the most pathetic of all pains…toothache :( You can’t do anything about it like massage and all , and also you can’t eat proper food. If you are a foodie like me, may God save you. Initially icecream seems exciting but then two days later with nothing else to eat but icecream, the word icecream just pisses you off. And then the visit to the dentist. The first thing you notice is the long queue of people and you wonder, dude why the bloody hell did I take up engineering, there is so much more money here :( Your belief and self doubt are further reinforced when the doctor charges you 250 bucks and gives you painkillers which you were already taking! And then you see all the elderly people around you and you wonder , how could I fuck up my teeth so much at just 20?? But with 7 fillings and 1 capping, you are still a veteran among those veterans ;) After such a fulfilling experience, you come back to your room looking for some sympathy and like all other kids who remember parents only in times of crisis, you pick up the phone to tell a tale of your misery, dad says “ fauji ki beti ho, itne se dard se kya hota hai? “ , you again think, how the hell did I land up here!
And then when the pain in the tooth doesn’t let you do anything, you end up writing such stupid articles in your DAA answer sheet! Oh yeah….I am writing this in my test :P but I guess I am not the only one here, most of the people are just doodling in their answer sheets, but then this is DAA, what else can you expect :P
Btw all those people thinking of making a career switch, go for dentistry ;)

आशाएँ

रात एक घनी थी,
चल पड़ा वो
आशा उत्साह
किरणो की ज्योति,
अँधेरे से लड़ पड़ा वो
जंग ऐसी भी नहीं,
की सक पका गयी मैं
रूह को छू गयी
जंग ऐसी हुई .
अंधकार में प्रकाश
मुश्किलें कई मिली
वो डरा नही
वो थका नहीं,
अँधेरे से वो हारा नहीं .
नयी सुबह
नयी आशा लिए
चल पड़ा वो
तेरे मेरे
सपने सच करने
अंधकार से लड़ पड़ा वो .

चल पड़े उन रहो पर हम
जिन पर कभी सोचा न था,
चल पड़े उन चौराहो पर हम
जहाँ किसी ने मिलना न था,
तलाश रही जिन रहो की हमे
वो रहे गुम हो गयी कहाँ,
राह देखी जिस राही की हमने
उस राही से कभी हमे मिलना न था,
राहो पर जिन पर चलना था हमे
कांटो से क्यूं बिछी थी वो,
दर्द की इस राह पर
क्या अकेले ही चलना था हमे ?

A flight of Thoughts

Coming back to writing after so long
a weight on my mind
ready to let go I am
but thoughts , crowd my heart
like waves in a storm
hitting every rock , they bounce back
a slush is what remains of my mind
but free horses and thoughts
alike
wild they are, uncontrollable
they say 'I control myself'
liars, I call them, scoundrels
fooling me to believe
what is far from truth
thoughts are mine
but can I control them?
a question, unanswerable by wise.

Attempt to unravel the mystery
many have done
failures they have hidden
by winding tales
fools, they are
a divine mystery it is
mere mortals we are
to attempt, I commend
to hope, I pity
let thoughts be wild
waves are never guided
let them be free
its nature it is
try to understand is what we do
His mystery, His power
we must bow before
weakness it is not
humbleness , I call it
to experience His mystery
is the joy of few
and then
some things are better left
unsolved!
