In No Time We All Grew Up

How did time flew by so fast, 

In no time we grew up, already two decades passed. 

Times- we cried when we got hurt while playing,

Today we have mastered ourselves to cover even the hearts breaking.

When each evening was spent with friends all around,

Now friends are there, but in memories and phone bound.

Friends we make- be like mirror and shadows,

because, mirror never lies and shadows never leave!

Fighting and getting back together was a daily routine,

Today, one fight ends an entire relationship.

Relations and love are- where the heart is involved,

they do not just upon the words evolve.

Today,

The truth is sold, so are the lies, 

and sold today in the market are all sorts of story-files. 

We forget,

No matter how clean the road is, the dirt will follow,

No matter how good a human is, mistakes will follow.

Food poison has ways to be treated,

But ears once poisoned, can never be repaired.

If people remember you only when they need,

Be happy, its because they find in you the solution seeds!

Down The Memory Lane..

I've been in this city hundreds of times before. Have spent 5 longs months in the same place three years back, but this time it was different, these 10 months have been amazingly epic. Last few days before I  pack my bags up and leave! A city that became my home,second home, gave me the best kind of people to deal with and uncountable memories to hold back to. I know I'll be coming back, to visit, or to stay for a few days, but still felt like writing this down!

You come to a city you don’t belong to,

Counting your days of 'survival' ,

and

You don’t even realize when those 100 days of survival,

Turn into 10 best lived months of your life.

Familiar faces, who

were just  contacts saved since years ,

Turned into best friends.

Girl next-door who once you never talked to,

Becomes your whole and sole and your pampering bowl.

That feeling,

when you get all you ever wished for,

A set of best people,

Who become your family away from home,

You cry together,You laugh together,

You Skype together,You sit together,

And you're high on life, altogether.

And then comes the time,

When you have to leave,

Happy to be home,

But sad to leave this happy place!

You’ve been amazing this time,

Until next time Jodhpur!

Dear someone who is miles away

Dear someone who is miles away,

I still remember the day we confessed our feelings for each other. I could never possibly imagine loving a person miles away but this relationship has taught me a lot, a lot more than words can possibly articulate. It taught me what trust is, it taught me how magically faith works, it taught me to be patient, calm and composed.

It was different back then. WE were different. I still crave for those years spent in bliss. Today, when I look at relationships around me, I feel pity for people who in reality does not even know what does a relationship mean but are still dealing with one or several at a time. Everyone is busy making their own definitions and this really hits me hard. I'm blessed to have spent such a major part of my life with you.

All the years we were together, we both have put immense efforts to make our relationship work. Meeting just a very, very few times in a year but being together virtually all the time. Your eyes full of dreams, your laughter following a tight hug after teasing me, those lyrics of the song you always sang wrong, all this is constantly on my mind while penning this down.

 I never feared distance while I was with you. You made me believe that all my fears were just a name. There were times we had fights, real bad ones  to make us part our ways, but you always held on to me until one fine day. Yes, I now fear distance, I do fear communication gap but I want you to believe that you have set the best example of love  and unconditional care and attachment  to me, to US and to those who know us both.

Thank you for not being among those "cool studs and girls" who knows nothing and are still in relationships not always one but several at a time too. Thank you for giving me the experience of how real relationships are. If not together with any tag, we still are together by the values we shared and the immortal mental connection we have.

Truly,

Your someone who is miles away!

Welcoming 2017

So, finally 2016 concluded giving a flying start to 2017. Each year has a lot of actions and stories all 365 days to cover us up. No matter how hard we try, we can never get hold of each single day and make it as per our specifications because time has its own ways to make us go through the good and the bad, where the good brings joy and the bad brings lessons.

To some this year had been a heartache to deal with ,to others it would have been a great year. If for you it was a year really hard to deal with, I wish 2017 be such as you dream of. For those who had a wonderful 2016, hope it remains the same throughout 2017.

Days 365,

be happy and you thrive,

Another year to add on to life,

Be full of good times and positive vibes.

To take everything that happens,

considering it was for good,

'cz god always has got your back,

He's right besides you in each move!

Mistakes and regrets are a part of us,

Learning from them and moving ahead

Is the only secret to life- happy & less fuss!

Setting new goals,

keeping a check on health,

May everyone be blessed with dreamed wealth!

Diving into the memory lane of all past years,

May the smile always remains on your face,

And this year makes you overcome all your fears!

The year 2017 has already sat in,

Let the sunshine hit your feet

and the sand beneath be your seat!

Happy New Year 2017 Everyone out there!

Locked Away Dreams

Two cities, 7840 miles apart,

Two flights to change, three continents to travel,

Two people, one love.

Promised that they wouldn’t let distance ruin what they have,

"I love you", she said,

"I love you too", he said

Spring changed to autumn,

Autumn welcomed winters,

Seasons repeated themselves,

But he changed himself forever.

"I love you", she said,

"I know", he replied.

She confessed, she waited,

He stopped saying it back,

The "forever love" was now belated.

They called it off,

And he blamed the distance,

And those sudden shift in feelings,

Once again,

Words remained words,

Actions were never taken!

JUST 5 Years!

It would have been 6 years this month,

The time,

Those years,

Those anxious nights,

Were all unconditionally worth!

Those who were evident,

The Shiva temple,

Knows the saga in ample

The corners of the classroom,

The playground of the school,

Had seen those searching eyes.

The old banyan tree,

Is evident of those special moments spree.

When no duress could keep them apart,

Nobody saw them

as two separate people,

Nobody ever thought

their highways of life would part.

Evident is,

The window of her room,

and

The cross road behind her home.

The eyes that saw the separation,

The departure to new land across ocean,

Those fights that bought tears,

With whom she had no fear,

The extraordinary mental connection,

Endless care and spellbound reactions.

It would have been 6 years,

But,

Those were just 5 happy years,

JUST,

FIVE happy years.
