Pretense was hard,
And the denial.
But, I accepted.

Revisiting the page just read,
And turning it.
But since, time has stopped,
The decision is taking forever....

है रंज-ओ-ग़म से रिश्ता अपना पुराना,
क्या हो भला उस सफ़र कि भी तकदीर,
जिसे तय करता आया हो यह ज़माना,
कि कर के भी कोई मुसाफ़िर कितनी करे तदबीर,
कि जितनी भी तरकीब लगाएं, उतना ही बड़ा फ़साना।

मुझे किनारों की फ़िक्र रहती है।
अपनी ही जगह पर खड़ा वह,
आती हुई लहरों की चपेट में,
जाने कब ढह जाए, बह जाए,
और जिसका वजूद ना कुछ रह जाए,
कौन कह सकता है।
मानो वह तटस्थता का मोल चुकाता हो।

An indispensable cushion for each other,
In this world that's,
Full of melee, chaos and disorder.
It's the friends who,
With their own set of distinctive disorders,
Bring order to Life.
Happy Friendship Day!

Pondering about the future,
Pandering to past demons,
Predisposed in the forlorn,
Precipices of the subconscious,
Prepares the worst recipe,
Preposterous to the mind,
Preempting an unstoppable wave of,
Paranoia that can effectively,
Prevent us from experiencing the,
Present to its fullest.

The first person
We need to know,
In our lifetime,
Are our own selves.
Because if we are trying,
To please the wrong person,
The ensuing heartache,
Can be a lifelong pain,
Incurable.

If not anything else, Inevitability, carries with itself, a sense of certainty. A certainty that it shall inevitably arrive.

-

The game of
Public Perception
Is like a 3-D chess
Being played in a
4-D space, wherein,
One miscalculated move,
Can start an,
Unintended ripple effect,
Across dimensions,
With outcomes
Unfathomable.

It dawns upon you that there are no slow-motion shots or background music in real life fights....
