पता नहीं

पता नहीं क्या ढूंढ रहा हूँ,
क्या चाहिए मुझे,
मझधार में फ़से नाविक की तरह
बस किनारा खोज रहा हूँ शायद।

किनारा उस शहर का,
जहाँ बसती हैं आशाएँ मेरी,
किनारा उस द्वीप का,
जहां तैरकर जाते हैं सपने मेरे।

पहुचती है उस किनारे पर हवा,
जिस हवा की रूह में आज़ादी है,
पहुंचता नहीं अगर वहां पर कोई,
तो वो हूं मैं और मेरी बेबसी।

मिलता तो हूँ मैं रोज़,
अपनी आशाओं से, अपनी आज़ादी से,
लेकिन सूरज की पहली किरण के साथ,
मेरी आज़ादी भी गुम हो जाती है कहीं।

हालातों की बेड़ियाँ,
इन सपनों को जकड़ लेती हैं।
जिन सपनों को आँखों में बसाए,
हर दिन की शुरुआत होती है.

There are two types of fears.

One that sucks life away from you.
This kind often originates in a loop of illusionary scenarios created by your own mind - possibly due to trauma(s).
Once you’re in this loop, you’re the one creating and chasing the fears, allowing it to control & suffocate you.


The other one teaches you how to live a better life.
It always strikes from the front and has its origin in real life challenges.
It leads to positive character development and high level of perseverance.

Whenever you’re afraid of something, always introspect and try to find out the kind of fear you are being haunted by.

Dreamt about a fading light,
Realized it was about my fight.
A war i fought with all my might,
yet failed to make things right.
The light which made my life so bright,
stands subdued by whispers of the night.
There seems to be no end in sight,
the fall i took was from an infinite height.

The daisies, the lilies, and their shades of white,
i admire and observe and hear,
"Hold on", says life, "hold on real tight.”
“Pick yourself up & your gear.”
“Darkness is looming, but you’re the Dark Knight.
The world’s a stage, got to give up the fear.”

The stage, the spotlight and a play to rewrite.
The dream, the set, the story of an heir.
The ending depends on the whims of the playwright,
Just live a little and feel the air.

Sometimes, the worst endings lead to great beginnings.

-

You cannot make someone regret for and realize their mistakes no matter how many efforts you make.

Only time and your absence can.

-

Once you have true feelings for someone, those feelings can never change.

No matter what that person does to you, you give them infinite chances.

You simply cannot turn love into hatred when its true.

Dreamt about a fading light,
I now realize it was about my fight.
A fight i fought with all my might,
Yet i failed to make anything right.

The light which made my life so bright,
Has been subdued by the whispers of night.
There seems to be no end in sight,
As the fall i took was from an infinite height.

-

You were cheated,
Dont be confused.
They left you battered
And you are bruised.
Your dreams were shattered.
There is no one you can accuse.
For them it never mattered,
You're just a commodity that they used.

-

I would never open my eyes because doing that will mean that i will lose you since now you only appear in my dreams not in reality.

-

Sometimes its better to accept defeat rather than scratching and clawing to achieve something which neither was yours nor will it ever be. Accepting the fact that you have lost the battle gives you courage to withstand stronger storms.
