"Annihilation"

"I stood up tall
Alone on the top
Planning to measure
Depth of the sea
And not asking price for it.

I jumped
In the air I surged
downwards....
The time slowed
The blue looked as the white snow
Mixed up red
With those bloodshed

I felt
Self to be a zombie
Tried to fit among the mortals
That dared to bomb me

The surface gets disturbed
Of the calm water
And not making much sound
It did the disaster
The waves took away
The soul that was to stay

An injustice to self
Pain, remembrance, guilt
And I'll take away
All the regrets
Ending all the baby-talks.

Those pending
Street walks
Needles of the clock
In the night hours
Stored memories in the juke box"

Best Friends

Two years back it was the same season, and the same place, the month of April. I remember how we strengthen the roots and of our friendship during that course of time. The time has passed by so quickly and it looks as if it happened just few months back. Nostalgic!! Well I am talking about the practice days of our Annual Day @The Oberoi Gurgaon in 2014, that made us life long friends. The practices, the rehearsals and the time we were together, are even today cherished by me. #Memories. It happened today that I decided to pass by that place to have a glimpse of the final rehearsal, before the live action. Couldn't get the feel. I could smell something missing. The spark that we had with regards to our respective performances was missing today. Well special thanks to the destiny that we are friends today, in fact, the best friends today. I know its not easy to keep up with the expectations but.... I miss your endless talking and never getting bore nature. The time flies and we j...

New Comer In The City

I left home right after class 12 to pursue my graduation and then my profession. 16 August, 2013 I entered the city of millionaires, Gurgaon. As a kid of a small town from Haryana, I was surprised by the fast paced life of the city people. Those expensive vehicles, the huge mansions and the luxurious streets. What do I do in a city that's completely unknown to me!! A city where I stood at one side of that concrete road and saw the glamour on the opposite side. I understood, the life of a common person is not easy, and in the years it was proven right. Where do I go? Whom do I talk to? Whom do I call my friend?  The situation was like a kid who has entered the hostel for the first time. A complete stranger in the city. Were strangers really a danger? Well, how do you get that tag of a stranger removed if you really want to befriend someone?? Simple - Go and talk. And that I was afraid to do. 'Some great relations in life start with that first word being exchanged more precisel...

Isn't That Weird

"Isn't it weird How can you go from being everything to nothing in the blink of ignored text messages. You can talk for months or even years, about everything & nothing. You can know more about each other than anyone has ever known before. And then one day One of us decides it is enough And then stop replying, And then stop trying, And it's just over. No words to break it off. No heartfelt goodbye's. Just a bunch of broken promises and the stories that will never find their endings. It's just cut off and we go on with our lives. AND NEVER BOTHERED TO LOOK BACK."
