THE LIGHT.

Surprising it may seen,
You always found it along with you.
Depressing it may seen,
It wasn’t there when you needed to be.

Call it love, call it friendship!
It’s all just the same.
Just remember the saying,
‘Everything is how it favours them!’

Whether the high or the low?
I know you’re worried about your own flow.
Just remember one thing child?
No other soul gives a fuck on how you grow.

-

The thing is?
Everything has repercussions.
Whether you say it out of a true heart?
Or out of a benefit angle.
The only way out is?
Mean what you say and be honest in your own angle.

As I glanced?
I saw an opening through the window of my room.
Nothing was peeping in.
However?
I saw a face,
Similar to mine,
Watching ceaselessly with dreaded eyes.
I was taken aback for a second?
Just before when I realised it was part of my imagination.
The next morning?
I realised it was just a dream..
Or was it?
Or was it a thought which was impeding me?
Fuck it, we all wish to be sorted.
Wait, do we?
Or is it just our mucked up self looking for a mucked up image to blame it upon?

-

‘I’d be lying if I said you ain’t the one!’

Believe me when I say, it’s all a hoax.
The process, the thoughts, the movements!
It’s nothing but a force of habit for quite some time.
And when you feel it losing?
The events, and the feelings are all what’s left.
Pretty soon?
Everything fades but just one constant thing!
Listening to that person saying the same exact words to someone else that?

‘I’d be lying if I said you ain’t the one!’

-

We die once,
yet experts on the topic afterlife.
We live daily,
yet struggling to find the meaning
and purpose of life.

-

I’ve seen too many faces now!
Too many to judge what’s right and what’s wrong!
I believe?
Now is the time.
Where?
Your own face is the one.
To believe?
To justify?
Whether you’re looking for right or wrong!
Because trust me,
The course of life is easy!
As easy as you know the second you see the person whether they’re meant for you or not.

-

One high tide and you end up brimming with pride.
One low tide and the void cannot stand without getting sloshed.
Is it the process that everyone tends to hide?
Or is it just the fear of getting time and again mocked.
Nevertheless, what is it about the tides?
They just come and go!
After all, they were just as good as the sun’s reflection that changes with the flow.

-

With time, the emotions which were once stirring waned and left an indelible impression.

-

इस बेबुनियाद भीड़ में,
तेरी तस्वीर को तराशना अब छोड़ चुका हूँ।
हर एक नए चेहरे में,
तेरी हंसी को तलाशना अब छोड़ चुका हूँ।
उन यादों का भार शायद उम्र से भी ज़्यादा का हो,
आख़िर तभी अब एक मुसाफ़िर हो चुका हूँ॥

-

In a world where I believed,
पर तेरे आगे कुछ भी नहीं सब ख़ाक बराबर।
You proved me wrong with,
तेरा हुआ ना मैं कभी, चल किसी और का सही।
