Present this Christmas

Look at that, time just smiled,
The bells are ringing, the star is shining. 
Laughter echos through our eyes,
The moment is right, it's the perfect timing.

Merry is the feeling,
Love is the thought.
I wish Christmas took heart,
And saw the happiness you brought. 

If the legends were to be believed,
If the stories were said to be true.
I would draw in all the courage,
And ask for only you. 

There's no need for wrapping,
I want you as you are.
Just happiness in your heart,
and love in your car.

I wish as we sat besides each other,
breezing through every endevour
Be my present this Christmas.
Be present in my life forever.

A Sense

There's a sense of freedom

that she feels 

when she walks alone

in a crowded street.

There's a sense of freedom

that she gulps 

when she shuts the door

with her dreams to sculpt.

There's a sense of freedom

that she cries

when she is caged

by someone's thoughts so dry. 

There's a sense of freedom

that she accepts

when she makes

feverish peace with herself.

Why can't I keep up?

Why can't I keep up?

With the world

With my imagination

This just really sucks

I don't really know

What to really do

Because I had plans

Some elaborate dreams

Some special schemes

Now all just seems 

So vague

So distant

I take one step ahead

Feels like two behind

Feels like a stumble

So I can't stand

Not even crawl

Not even move

I wish it would stop

And things would better

And time won't run out

Hope I can see

Still there is a lot

What's left of me

Autumn Love

Its been sometime since we know each other

Some years to say but feels like forever

With late night calls and long online chatting

Having deep conversations and crazy blabbering

I know you love it as much as I do

But tell me boy is it all too good to be true

Because I know all is fine and spring is beautiful

But tell me boy will autumn love be a struggle

You look deep at me and I smile back at you

You are the best thing in my life out of a few

So let me know if you are strong enough

Or else our bond might just loosen up

Day by day things will obviously change

The greenery and fresh air will turn stale

Will you stick around when all is shades of brown

Even I might just want to fly away with a frown 

Oh we are such a beautiful dream together

But what if you wake up because of the weather?

I know you love it as much as I do

But tell me boy is it all too good to be true

Because I know all is fine and spring is beautiful

But tell me boy will autumn love be a struggle

Rock bottom home

It isnt very dark
But I cant see much
As i swim further deep
There isnt a path as such

Headed the wrong way
World's on the other side
The pull is stronger
The tide is high

I land hard with no pain
Nothing is as its suppose to go
I hope i am only a guest
In this place, my rock bottom home.

The sound of waves

It has been so so long
It still feels like seconds
Now something's gone
And the new start ends


It was not what I thought
It was not what I saw
Looks like I got caught
Now I have nothing at all


So all I have right now
Is the sound of waves
Just a reminder that
All's not gonna be grave


The splashing and pounding
The shrill and rushing
Sea winds in my hair
And a long deep breath


The coast makes it clear
Whatever it is, dont fear
The winds might be rough
But you have to stay tough


Its been heard and said before
But that's how it's suppose to be
Only you make your life
Just believe yourself and see

Closing my eyes

It's like being stuck in a loop, 

sometimes life goes through blues.

Living each day as the same,

not much change, not much pace.

A race against time 

is such a priority,

Thinking something new

is such a minority.

Till when can such a goose chase last?

All the energy is gonna run out fast.

So I am closing my eyes,

watching the darkness. 

To see how my mind defies, 

the truth, the usual, the mess.

Reality has nothing new,

its time we think it through.

Impossible to possible,

change the calling of that label.

So I am closing my eyes,

watching the darkness. 

Because I can truly see,

what becomes free.

Closing my eyes,

imagining some glee.

Something you still can't see,

a discovery just for me.

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!

Paint the Sky

When I wake up everyday,

all I want is to find something new.

As life moves on like a play,

all I want is to see it as it grew.

Day by day something changes,

and I feel happy when I see it.

Because I know the exchanges,

are meant to boost the spirit.

So when I look up to the clear sky,

all I want to see is an array of colours.

The sunshine will not be so shy,

it'll make me bright and fuller.

Paint the sky,

because it'll look beautiful again.

Paint the sky,

don't care if its pain or gain.

Paint it with love, life, laugh

as it'll make me happy.

Paint it with hate, death, tears,

as it'll make me strong.

Just like the blue velvet,

the journey is really long.

Life ain't about the end yet,

it's all about going on strong. 

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!

Sail away with me

Sail away with me

And maybe we'll cross over

Sail away with me

Because you know life's a blur

As the water pushes us further

All we can do is let our boat wander

We might push a pedal as well

But that wont make our journey as swell

Drift into nothingness and you will see

Life is about making the best with glee

Get the best out of the current flowing

Let it push you but not your knowing

Sail away with me

And life still can be what we mean

Sail away with me

Because life's not a race, it's a phase. 

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!

And the song ends

As I go through my playlist

I got you on my mind

there is something I cant resist

something that is one-of-a-kind

So I let this one song play

let the music fill my ears

and let my thoughts sway

around you so everything clears

Remembering how I first met you

You were so incredibly different

For a moment my heart knew

I found maybe it was meant

Then as the song continues

the lyrics go on forward

I imagine something new

Maybe both of us strike a chord

And then the song ends

I don't even realise when

now all I am left with is

something that I dreamt 

Wishing it would turn real

I know I might never know

But just this one deal

Could set and show

Till then let me play another song

let me make another dream

because you make me skip a beat

and the world is bright as a beam

<3

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!

Another Beginning

In the cold it is going to start

A change it is, not a simple art

As it rises you know its new

Another turn which is absolutely true

Stepping on to another level

Here is one more chance to avail

To do what you have been dreaming for

Have the most unbelievable in your hands 

So here is the time once again

To get what you want with all your pain

Aim for the stars and reach for the sun

Have another year of incredible feats and fun

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!

Always At It

I may be a lot of things..

....A misfit

.....A bit unsure

......A loser

.....A spectator

.......A scaredy cat

.......A cry baby

.....An unrealistic dreamer

.....A hope addict  

.....A lost soul

I may be lot of things.....

But I aint a quitter

Because

Whatever is it that I pursue...

I will never bow down...

I will be...

ALWAYS AT IT!

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!

Cushion Care

When I was born
I was laid on to you
The comfort I felt 
the calmness you drew


I cried on to you 
when something was not right
I punched you
when anger kept me up all night


I would study 
keeping my book on you
I would eat
on  you when I felt blue


You were my partner in crime
in revenging my brother
When he joked about me
and then you became my weapon


I hug and slept with you
as if you were a friend
You let my dreams live
without any end 


I cannot tell
how much you mean
Being there forever
so much you have seen 


Years pass by 
and you are still there
Taking different forms
but giving the same care

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!

Should I?

Should I ask these questions or should I stop?
Should I hold on to somethings or should I let go?
Should be worried or should I be tension-free?

Should I try to change things or should I let them be?
Should I believe in reality or should I believe in dreams?
Should I raise my hands or should I raise my voice?


Should I search for the answers or should I let them find me?
Should I even believe there are answers to all the questions?
Should I? Maybe I should....




I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!

an ODE to ZMP

A poem for my college friends group 'ZMP'

for our journey from ground zero we all started

not knowing each other at all from its inception

unaware of how the three years smoothly progressed

to find something in common we seven had exceptionally

destiny took its call and rolled out its plan

it seems there was more to what meets the eye

there were lots of road bumps on the way we ran

but still we were bound together high and dry

now when we look back those eventfull years

we miss what we had so near

looking forward we know we are still dears

what ever happens we all are together here

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is! 

Jahan se Pare

Rehta hun kahin dur main
duniya se hoon bilkul alag
Saath mere bas main hi hoon
aur mere khawaboon ki jhalak


Aasman mein udhne ki chah hai
ya kahin dur jaane ki
Jahan tak koi gaya na ho
woh jagah hogi sirf meri


Kuch naya dikhayun duniya ko
jo na dekha ho kabhi kisi ne
Bas kash kuch anokhaa mil jaye  
sirf mera ho jo, pure jahan se pare 


I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is! 

Enough is Enough

Enough of Books
Enough of Movies
Enough of Food
Enough of Love
But
Enough of Waiting
Enough of Work
Enough of Traffic
Enough of Tiredness


Enough of Good things
But
Enough of Bad things too


Enough of Life
BUT not
Enough of Time!

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is! 

Circles of my Life

The year was 2008. The start of the new year, my second year, when I was doing my Bachelors in Mass Media. Onset of new acadamic years always some how excited me. New books, new things to learn and another fresh chance to prove yourself. Though, through the year my excitement turned into frustration and then indifference, the beginnings always felt like opportunities to me. Thus, that year I decided to make my own notes journal and design its cover page.

When the book was finally binded with papers, the task at hand was to get the idea behind the cover page. Then I thought as this is my cover it should definately show my core philosophy of Life.

'What goes around comes around; Life always comes full circle'

Thus, the base was full of converging circles to show my volatile thoughts.

My love for colours was evident to show in it. I truly believe in simplicity so the colours I chose were shades of blue, red and yellow.

Having colourful circles still did not thirst my quench. I thought there has to be something special between all this thought circles of mine. Then after some thinking I came across these 7 things or rather philosophies which were like goals in my Life.

1. Love Flight: Love is the most important thing in life. God made that evident when all he gave us was some company from the start and left the rest of the world for us to figure. Whether it is true love, true friends or true relations, all I want is to have it all around me and make that flight special.

2. Happy Always: Only when you are the soundest in mind can you conquer the world. I just want to smile whenever I wake up or go to sleep. So, I plan to do whatever that makes me happy despite the fact of what someone else thinks.

3. Shining Star: Whatever you do, do it the best. But also do it your way and give it a special touch. Great works are not so because they are so moving, they are so because they have their creator's reflection. Let your work shine for you and you will become a star.

4. Peace Up: Some chaos is very nice. That is because the peace that comes after it is amazing. Life is full of potholes just so that we can enjoy the smooth ride after it and get ready for future potholes. Finding peace is upto you and you will find it in the unlikeliest of places.

5. Pretty as the butterfly: Butterfly are one of the most exotic creatures. So, having a life as exotic and unique is good. Mind this, by butterfly I dont mean fragile or girl-like. It can be the way you want it to be but make life exotic.

6. Making massive Money: Everybody knows the law 'Survival of the fittest' and for survival all you need is good mind and body. What gives an edge to it is some Money. Dollar also sounds like 'do-ladh' in hindi which means 'two-fight'. Money is the object of desire for all and can cause so much pain. It aint the most important thing in life but it sure does help you keep the important things intact.

7. Super Strong: In the end, Life is war. Making sure you have the energy for it is necessary. Will of Steel and mind of Titanium is something that have to be developed. Being a superman is hard but once you get the hang of it is a cake walk.

These seven circles or goals were defined by me and brought on to the cover. Not only did I get a satisfaction of making a good cover, I also somehow crystalised what I wanted from Life. After three years I was very happy to find this because I understood how this cover page will always be with me. Everything I thought of while making this will always be true for me.

And why did I write this post? I thought maybe how this cover page helped me realised how things work for me, it can help someone else figure out their's. So, if there is any thing that you liked or hated tell me... maybe we can find a new angle or rather circle to life altogether!

I may not know too much but I can surely think much more coz I can experience Life and Laugh as It is!
