Darkness

There is light in the darkness

There is silence in the darkness

There is joy in the darkness

There is naughtiness in the darkness

There is emptiness in the darkness

There is soul in the darkness

There is love in the dark

There is pain in the dark

There is weakness in the darkness

 There is inspiration in the darkness

Some Moments

Some moments bring happiness

Some moments impose pain 

Some moments are cherished 

Some moments are beginnings

Some moments are endings 

Some moments are disappointing 

Some moments define life 

Some moments change life 

Some moments captures love

Some moments captures heartbreak

Some moments captures death 

Some moments are hard to forget

Some moments are painful to remember

But those moments are here to say

Deep inside the heart forever

Give back

Give back my right

Give back my land

Give back my pride

Give back my soul

Give back my values

I wish to live with freedom

I wish to live with peace

I wish to live with equality

Even for one day here

I live in this soulless state

Where passion is seen during cricket

Or during a war

Where everyone is corrupted in mind

I live in this lawless state

Where anyone can kill at will!

Highway

A deserted Highway

Abandoned cars and trucks

Badly burnt

At middle of nowhere

No trace of survivors

No trace of hooligans

A story unfolded

In fields nearby

Scattered feminine attires

 And inner wears

Villagers nearby

Revealed the horror

The loot and the battering

Abductions and rapes

Desperate run to save lives

Refuge and silence

Longest wait for the dawn

Of freedom

In the jail of night

As lust and greed

Hid behind the thuggery

To chase down innocence

And erase the evidence

Journeys of joy

Turned out as nightmares

Home remained so far away

Scars of night accompanied

The escape journey

Justice remained beyond reach

As defenders of law remained

Inaccessible

Lost Love

A journey from chaos to silence was agonizingly slow

A journey from oblivion to smile was surprisingly brisk

The distance between the silence and smile is daunting 

Time flies with vanishing memories and withered bond

Anti-National

I am an Anti-National

I don’t pretend my country or cow as my mother

I prefer to give that respect to my mother alone

I don’t worship a saffron terrorist Godse as Patriot  

I admire Gandhi and millions of freedom fighters

I am an Anti-National

I am an Anti-National

I don’t eulogize Sanskrit or Hindi to become a nationalist

I love my mother tongue and stand for all Indian languages

I am an Anti-National

I don’t feel threatened by minorities and other ideologists

I rather bother about hatred spewing rioters and criminals

I am an Anti-National

I don’t use tri-color to force Indians to prove their patriotism

I can’t imagine a saffron flag representing India in my lifetime

I am an Anti-National

I don’t endorse emergency under Indira Gandhi decades go

I believe in Indian constitution and democracy, nothing else

I am an Anti-National

I don’t think, our government should benefit only corporates

I wish for social welfare support and opportunities to all Indians

I was born here, I will live here and I want to die here, when I am old 

I am an Anti-National

I prefer being an Anti-national than a saffron blinded nationalist

Reliving - Into the Wild

Sometimes it feels, 
The woods are warmer ,
Than the coldblooded society, 
a small hobbit and a fireplace, 
a small garden aside a stream, 
somewhere far in a lonely valley,
with some sheeps for company,
life will be whole lot simpler ,
with nothing to prove,
nothing to gain,
nothing to lose,
no bonds, no chains
no hope, no expectations
no deadlines,no appeasement
just an idyllic journey amidst nature
