My mom calls up, asks me to
come over her house,
I say I'll but I am lying.
My disease is not infectious
thank God,
still I wanna hide it,
so it won't hurt anyone.
I deactivate social apps,
distance from a friend,
people see in me.
Escapism in practice is at times
a paradox. Distance in practice
is just a wait, waiting to be over.

Paradoxes

Poverty of the wealthy
and
wealth of the poor

Sickness in a healthy man's brain
and
health in the sick person's soul

Love for the dead
and
hate for the living.

(PARADOXES)

In this World of paradoxes and paradigms

She still believed in thaumaturgy of love ...

-

He was like a dot in her life,
A complete full stop,
She never crossed.
She was a comma in his life,
A partial subway,
He always crossed.
Life continued....in antithesis and paradoxes.

Dear, Rahul Gandhi


I accidentally came across this speech of yours where you shared the most emotional thing you could have ever shared...
You said "This morning, I got up at night." and with the pause that followed , I found immense peace from within, surge of energy rushed past each and every atom in my body, I felt for the first time being one with the universe. In that moment I realised that biggest paradox's aren't found on the desks of seasoned scientists ,slogging day and night to get to the bottom of it. Sometimes they are found in your heartfelt speeches.

Flowers across time

The paradoxes that force the life out of us
Through summer and winter we stood still
Until the petals started withering away
humour of life and death played across time,
Until the weight of blossom
Drowned us together.

THOUSANDS DESIRES MELTED AWAY
WHEN I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES AND
I'AM AFRAID TO LOVE BECAUSE I'VE LOVED.
SO, LOOKING AT YOU REMINDS ME EVERYTHING I WANT,
EVERYTHING I'VE LOST AND,
ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING I WANT TO HOLD ON TO.
NOW MY MIND IS CONFUSED,
LIKE A COLLECTION OF PARADOXES,
TOO SERIOUS, TOO SENSITIVE,
TOO SHALLOW & TOO DEEP.

On the pursuit to stand out, one also ends up missing out.
