Human Being or A Puppet
You want her to contribute in finances
But you also want her to cook three meals a day.
You want her to be happy all the time
But you also want her to remain silent when insulted.
You want her to be financially independent
But you also want her not to spend much.
You want her to balance every relationship
But you also want her not to raise her voice when provoked.
You want her to be decked up all the time
But you also want her to keep the house prim and proper.
You want her to greet everyone with honor
But you also take her for granted when questioned beyond the boundaries.
You want her to follow your footsteps
But you also want her not to question your decisions.
What on Earth do you think of her?
Is she a human being or a mere puppet?

DESTINY
I was standing still when you held my hand,
You came closer to let me understand.
The time is temporary, but our bond is forever,
Your smile is something that I always treasure.
Before meeting you; I had always thought,
Is there anyone who can untie these knots?
The knots that made life less humbling,
The answers that I got were always puzzling.
Then you were right there to make me feel calm,
I was spellbound by your aura, splendor, and charm.
You made my existence worthy of living,
I admired your attribute of always giving.
There are days now when I often think to myself in utter surprise,
A year and a half ago, we came together and how time flies.
Cupid played its part well when he conspired to align our stars,
It was written in our destiny, and I cherish this union of ours.

Admiration is born out of illusion mostly but respect is something that one deserves and it stays forever.

Sometimes inspiration comes from the smallest of things around us. The need is to look and observe.

I like to be more private now a days. Most of the people suffocate me except the ones who calm my soul. Is it a part of adulting or something is changing inside me?

मेरा घर कहाँ है।
पैदा हुई तो पापा ने गले से लगाया
घर में लक्ष्मी आई है सबको बताया।
माँ खुश तो थी बस कुछ अधूरा सा था
औरों की आँखों का सपना टूटा जो था।
पढ़ लिखकर जब हुई थौड़ी सी मैं बड़ी
सबकी सोच बस एक बात पे ही अड़ी।
बेटी है, ये तो एक दिन पराई हो जाएगी
किसी और के घर जाकर वहाँ की शौभा बढ़ाएगी।
फिर माँ,पापा और सबने बस एक ही बात समझाई
तेरा घर तो कोई ओर है,बस कर अब ये पढ़ाई।
शादी करके जब पहुँची मैं मेरे कहे जाने वाले घर
सबकी नज़रें थी मुझपे और मेरे अंदर था एक डर।
किसी ने मुझे दिल से अपनाया और प्यार भी जताया
अरे ये तो पराए घर की है,किसी ने ये कहके रुलाया।
बस एक ही सवाल मुझे बार बार पूछना सबसे यहाँ है
अगर हूँ मैं न यहाँ की,न वहाँ की तो आखिर मेरा घर कहाँ है।

Giving time and taking out time for things are entirely two different aspects. The things that matter doesn't require taking out time whereas giving time comes out naturally.

I never gave the privilege to anyone to define my life because I chose my path and stuck to it no matter what.
