Breeze

The door had just opened,

after way too long

In came a gentle breeze,

for a moment too long

It’s just another breeze he thought


The longer he stood there,

in her gentle grace

The farther he went,

from the rest of the human race

Just then he uttered, “She is different”


The breeze whispered

“I am one, you have never seen”

She was soothing, gentle

and all what he looked for


Finally she was here to stay,

he dared not to say that loud

For the very thought of staying,

might make her want to blow away

So he waited to be certain


It felt great, the small talks

To hear her whisper,

was like music to his ears

He waited too long to hear this,

gentle melody of a breeze


He was certain she is here to stay

That one thought,

had undone it all

For then came a gust from the west

That took her with him and flew east


Then he thought,

A breeze never could stay

or did she really want to ?

He would never know


For now,

she was looking

always the other way…

Her Pain

She was hurt before,
and she is hurt again
By the very same people,
who cry peace upfront
and fight a shadow war

Her people have got used to this,
time and again they have been hit
By some cowards with no face,
and their cowardly actions

The people who should protect
are too busy squabbling
and eating away her penny
to fill their pockets
that her safety comes later

At least this time around
Pray for those souls,
Who lost their lives
and those poor lives they left behind

Please
Dont be silent,
or be fooled
It’s about time we stand up, and shout

WE WANT ANSWERS
AND SOME ACTION
WE DONT WANT MORE DEAD
WE WONT LET MUMBAI BURN...

Dream

The dream is so fragile

that I don’t dare see,

But I know deep inside

that’s what I want for me


So I kept it locked inside

the depths of my mind,

So much so, that

I even forgot where


I kept searching and searching

each time in vain,

For each time I looked

I didn’t know for what


Then came this day

when it found me,

Came up right to me and said,

“I am what you left behind”


Ever since that day

I kept it right in my heart,

Still too fragile

to show out to the world


One day will come

when I will choose my dream,

Over this world and its

fetters so dear...
