Shadow or Reflection?



While walking the lane
When people were walking in opposite to me
Were just the directions different
Or the thoughts

While walking the lane
With the unknown but in the same direction
Were just the directions same
Or the goal as well

Not all walking with the same pace had halted at the candy stall
Not all stepping in sync had routed to the same building

The trees named under a single family had different beauty
The aroma
The colour
The shape
The ROOTS

Living one third of the years on the earth with individuality
With spices of experience
And chills of happiness

Don't know why we find it difficult
Rather are less confident of the fact
That two similar coins can be kept together
Just like the two different coins raising each others value together

Acceptance is  sea ready to carry anything to the shore with its flow
Adjustment is bay being small ready to take the loud tides -of the moon gossiping to the sea

I am stupid with love

The ceiling  The fan The curtains The door The windows All are still With the silent Breeze making its way into the room Like the thoughts in my head I can hear the ticking of the clock  The heart knocks against my chest Sometimes even the a sound of my eye lids flickering  On the thoughts that are non stop I cry to myself in the head  "Nobody loves me." Before I throw another tantrum  My head replies Your family loves you. And i suspend that answer  Thinking of  A friend i have known since 10 years now A friend who can read my thoughts through the phone screen Just by knowing me through a year A boy whom I had met years ago  I don't even remember the length of his smile Of the shape of his head or the position or the color of his hair But I think of that boy When I say nobody loves me. Now the irony is  None of the three people  Like to express love in words  Or in loud gestures And i crave for words  But if they tell those wo...

Normal problems please !

  I miss the normal problems I miss mom scolding me for being late from work I miss being stuck in traffic when out for office I miss being out with my friend and then planning another outing I miss the gossips at the coffee shops I miss the crowd at McDonald's I miss waiting for my chance in the queue of burger King I miss seeing the teenage girls in sarees for farewell in college waiting the bus and the train I miss seeing the boys trying to fix the loose tie standing by their crush I miss seeing dad care free about us being out of home I miss the normal problems The news of people dying is suffocating The news of all the chance for this virus vanishing is nowhere They talk of precautions  Now each day seems a achivement Now each but of oxygen seems a reward Now washing hands seems the only hygienic essential Now being around your loved once seems so terrifying You can't touch them  You can't hug them You can't even wipe their fear tears You can just stand their prayi...

The shying words

How do you believe the moon isn't whispering your stories to someone aren't the chance of him whispering it to some writer high May be one of the reasons why you related to the story yesterday on Netflix May be that's how your crushes end up in your favorite color today May be that's how you cleared the interview today How do you know the moon isn't working on his script with your lines If you can believe someone that far How do we end up doubting the skin and flesh besides and around us If we don't hold expectations and grudges when it comes to him Why wonder for years over a message that din come through I don't understand how we whisper our secrets to the mountains and the sea but fear of losing them against the people we breathe with How do we trust the living forms breathing without the flesh over the living we can touch and feel How do I trust the paper with my words and strangers with my smiles With every question I pen I end of writing hope, belief, ...
