What’s yours, you often overlook..
As if it’ll always be there,
As if it can wait forever.

What isn’t, you chase...
Like a mirage in the distance,
You name it “destiny,”
Convinced it holds the cure to your emptiness.

But somewhere between having and wanting,
Everything begins to unravel...

You lose the calm
that once lived within,
the dreams
that once made your heart race,
the hopes
that once felt unbreakable.

All gone...
Because your eyes were fixed on what was missing,
Rarely noticing what was fading!!!

-

Some questions, unquestioned!
Unanswered few,
Folded in letters,
Faded in hue.

Between childhood laughter
And goodbyes unsaid,
They sit like old memories
Alive, yet dead.

-

Doors reopen, chances reappear,
but time? It never circles back.
Once lost, it’s just a memory..
no rewinds, no second takes.

You can chase lost dreams,
rebuild broken bridges,
but time never knocks again.

Kal jo tha, chala gaya,
Yaadon ki dhundh mein kahi kho gaya.
Kal kaisa aayega, kaun jaane,
Sapne bhi waqt ke saath hi badal jaane hain!

Aaj hai khushi, kal kya pata gham ho,
Pal bhar mein sab kuch madhyam ho!

Samay ke saath sab kuch badalta hai,
Lafz, jazbaat, aur rishte bhi dhalte hain.
Jinse sabse zyada moh ho,
Aksar wahi pehle door ho jaate hain.

Waqt ki toh aadat hee hai chalna,
Kabhi jo apna hotaa hai woh paraya ban jayega,
Aur jo ajnabi tha, kabhi apna lagne lag jayega!

The weight of a sigh, carried by syllables, is poetry.
A wound that heals as it bleeds onto paper is poetry.

It is silence, taught to sing,
and darkness, given a voice.

It is the unshed tear resting in a stanza,
and the untold story breathing between the lines.

How do I thank a heart so true?
No words, no deeds would ever do.

The things I wish for, just once,
He grants me within moments.

He steps back so I can run,
Gives me shade, yet stands in the sun.

How do I repay a love so deep?
A bond so strong, a promise to keep?

Maybe one day, when I stand tall,
He’ll see he was my strength through it all.

Blessed I am, beyond compare,
For a love so pure, so rare.

No wealth, no treasure could ever replace,
The warmth of PAPA'S endless grace.

-

Time… it was just yesterday, and now it’s gone.
Today is here, and tomorrow will come again.
Yet, in this endless cycle, do we truly hold a moment,
Or does time vanish before we even realize it was here?

-

Mistakes whisper growth;
Mistakes ignored scream regret!

-

In the depths of sorrow,
I found a blanket woven with joy.

The tears I once shed for little things,
Now I realise...
Were far too small to hold me down.!

Every dawn brought light anew.
The pain I thought would never fade,
Melted softly in time’s gentle touch.

Life’s not measured in days or years,
But in the joy that laughter brings.!

So why dwell on what feels undone?
Why let the past still pull me back?

I choose to dance with every tune,
To find the music in the rain.

For sorrow and joy walk hand in hand,
One teaches loss, the other grace.

In the house of Shahaji, a son was born,
Jijau’s dreams, in his heart were sworn.
Not just a child, but a warrior to be,
With fire in his soul, and a vision to see.

He walked the hills, the valleys wide,
With Dharma and Swarajya by his side!
Fort after fort, he made them his own,
A kingdom of truth, a throne well known.

The Mughals trembled, the Sultans swayed,
Yet his fire, it never decayed.
Raigad stood tall, his power grew,
Yet his heart was kind, his justice true.

A king not by birth, but by his deed,
Crowned in gold, fulfilling the need.
Hindavi Swarajya, a dream so grand,
A Maharashtra, free and strong in hand.

Not just on land, but on the sea,
His navy rose, fierce and free.
Sindhudurg stood, guarding the shore,
Shivaji’s might forevermore!

Not just in books, not just in tales,
Shivaji still lives, his legacy sails.
A land where Dharma forever shone,
A place that Hindavi Swarajya called home.

In every heart, in every cheer,
Jai Bhavani, his name we hear.
Not just in statues, not just in lore,
Shivaji reigns, forevermore!
