He ties the knots her marriage


When in playgroup she was clueless of it
Often she would question mom of the magalsutra
Often she would question her wearing sindoor

And when she grew to enter pre-primary
She came to know a word called marriage
Enjoying the music and ice cream in the marriages she grew older
And then there came a day when she played a game
With her Barbie.
Asking mom to buy her a saree and jewels
And of course find the best groom for her Barbie

When old enough to think of hers
She was nervous, scared and numbed by the thoughts of it.
She had someone she wanted
She had someone her parents wanted to be hers
She had few dreams to fulfil before it
She had certain goals to conquer before it
And also were the best reasons to build a wall around her
When the noise come music of marriage was bought up

She then started throwing hints 
Into the air
In the mail box
In the talks
And wherever possible
Of her feeling for him
Of how she wants to be with him
She felt a bit less nervous .
It sounded less scary to imagine to known face 
Then the unknown just after she opens her eye in morning
A bit more comfortable to spoil the dinner for him

But now a days rains don't drizzle in rainy season
The just come and go when they feel like rejoicing
So was he
He just vanished
She made herself to rejoice summer
Which she hates
She made herself comfortable with unknown faces

So now when the music of marriage was played
She knew to smile although she never knew dance against it

So 'What happens , happens for a reason'
& He - someone she wanted made her ready to marry someone who was best for her

Indian marriage Don't come as goal
They come as necessity

That notification

When I received your message today  I was on my way to office, I smiled to your text but missed to reply Today when my phone buzzed with you name with a message underneath  I peeped at it and missed to reply, again! The other day when I received your message, I was out with a friend so I kept it on unread to reply later But I slept  And days followed  Your name kept shining everyday I kept going without replying to them on time or even not But you stayed  So the other day when I didn’t see your name in the notification bar  I missed you, only to realise I missed to live the moment of the words that you shared  The moments you remembered and I failed to live it again because I was just lost  While you stood on the door  I was just wondering here and there  Ignorant of the fact that the sun will set and it will be night soon You will close the doors  To sleep with moon outside the window

Whisper of the wind

  I often understand love in a language I don’t understand  Like falling for stranger Sometimes for their kindness  Sometimes for that smile Sometimes just for them being happy  Sometimes for their sympathy  How does falling starts for unknown  너의 이름을 불러보지만 닿을 수 없다는 걸 알고 있어 긴 밤을 꼬박 새우고 빗속으로 어느새 (새벽이 오고 있어) ( even though i call your name I know i can't reach you I spent the long night in the rain suddenly (dawn is coming) But it roots as you stay their for hours and sometimes for days  And if you happen to to stay longer It stays for lifetime  Not into your life but into your heart Sometimes a song reminders you of it On other days the checked shirt Or that gesture you noticed in the crowd of unknown people Often it’s how they behave around and with their people Gentle, calm, silently funny in the heads Mischievous smiles And a face you never thought to encounter 

Fears, are real!

All the fears are real People falling  While walking While dancing While just standing still While looking at someone Failing In the exams With the expectations  Of yours  And your loved once And the strangers Growing In love Out of love Getting old With lessons With scars With open wounds  Being stuck On page for hours and weeks In life for years and years With people till the end In thoughts of your own and the others too. With a blank full of ink but still not working Many others like People giving up on you People not fighting for you You not able to find the old you You missing yourself  While you stand before the mirror With blank thoughts Like standing in a room  On your own shadow Everyday at certain hour of the day All that you fear is happening is someday We just need to breathe through it Crying, yelling, laughing or just sitting through it Or just walking past it.
