Pondering!

 

Pondering!


~~Pondering!~~
Is it too much to expect something out of unexpected?
Is it too much a frill on my list?
I have been feeling a bit unorchestrated,
Maybe I have lost a will to live!
..
I have been scared to the bones,
Even thoughts of it
bring back those chills!
Filled with remorse for the cradles left untouched,
How can regrets stay calm in the heat!
..
I've been pulling the all-nighters,
My eyes are heavy
And so are my legs feel way-too weak!
Mere thoughts just crushes my soul,
Deprives me of my beliefs!
..
Trust no process,
That's how I have been.
I'm scared to say the 'L-word'.
I don't know if it's for myself or is there someone really in heed!
..
I'm scared,
In disbelief.
Seeing myself
Through your eyes,
Stuck in this time loop
Trapped in the dark!
..
Confining the magic,
Reflecting the shimmer of confetti.
Makes me question myself:
Every time, Everyday
Even in this nick of time:
Is this where I'm supposed to be at all?
Or, is there something worthy, I have already lost?
..
Disparage Myself-
Would that be enough?
Or is there even something else
I'm missing?
Following the trails,
Being braver than what I had been!
..
What I had; is lost for once and all!
What left untouched is the set of open questions
For me to allure.
Seems like,
My best thing has already been taken back.
And all that is left
Are these hollow walls!
..
It's funny;
It really is!
Feels like,
I always had something to lose
Before today!
Now, none, nothing at all!
..
The only thing that makes me wonder:
Is this where I'm supposed to be at all?
..
I'm betting on it:
Against the odds.
All at once,
for me and the pieces of the soul
Left to allure!

"Bruises of Love"

Covered in the thread of dark colored clothes,  I could see a smile on her face!  Her make-up was minimal,  Hairstyle on point! A not so common shade of nude lipstick,  Complimented black Kohl in her eyes! ... A galaxy of intellectuals have gathered to mark her existence,  And just like others even I was stunned looking at her innocent face!  I don't know what was written in her faith,  But it would have been certainly better if I wasn't there at that place. ... Yes, Yes, I'm aware,  I've compared certainty with faith here,  but there are things that outlaws the idea of right doing or wrong doing and all we have is that particular state!  This was one of those peculiar moments;  It's not like this was my " first-time " But with her, yes it was!  She pointed at me and winked,  and signalled me to follow her.  I hesitated for...

Art of Judging People V/S Fear of Getting Judged

Do you ever stop yourself from doing something just because of “ log kya kahenge ”? I do! In fact, I’ve judged myself more than anyone else ever has. There are days when we judge others, but the harshest judgment often comes from within. My own vision shackled me with invisible chains.  A constant fear that kept me from being myself: Fear of dancing in public. Fear of getting clicked (what if I look old, not good enough?). Fear of wasting potential, of not living up to “standards.” The Weight of Opinions Over time, these fears weren’t even mine. They were borrowed from the world around me: Too much affection in public? "Wrong. Don't do it!" Getting drunk? “Good people, don’t do that.” Dating someone? “Weren’t you supposed to make it big, first?" Our society writes invisible rules, and we live inside that 10x10 room of opinions. The walls keep closing in, until one day people say, “ Aadmi acha tha, potential bohot tha, bura hua! ” The Circle of Judgement The circle o...
