Fragile dreams!

Dreams are so delicate, so fragile
Cannot withstand the stones hurled by reality
Sometimes it's best not to wakeup from sleep at all
To save your dreams from the shattering cruelty

Yet we dream on
Building castles after castles in the air
Wanting to fill them with comfort and hope
But only end up in despair

You are one such dream of mine
You kept smiling at me in my sleep
But shattered to wakeup and see it over
And then the pain that makes you weep

Life is a fucked up joke
We are all fucking joker's in the game
Trying to change our destinies forever
But every time the result is the same

The time we spend together is the most lovely time of my life
Will cherish it till I'm alive
You made my dead emotions dance
And made my senses jive

But then it's all a mirage
Ultimately it's always gone with the wind
The mere thought of losing you
Forms a lump in my throat and chokes my mind

I know nothing is permanent is life
Neither you, me or us
Still I desire to make 'us' work
Amidst all the turbulence and fuss

My life is fucked up as it is
And as I know so is yours
But I feel that when we get together
We will have enough positive energy to heal the scars

But alas! What will be will be
No matter how hard I try it ain't going to alter
But still hoping against hope that
You will choose me over others
And this time we will get it right
No more scope to falter

Humanity is lost!

We lost ourselves when our quest was overtaken by greed. First, we wanted to learn - the earth, the oceans, the skies and then we wanted to own them. We invented toys of mass pleasure and mass pain. We got religion and creed. And we got lost in all these. We stopped being the wanderers who wanted to cherish nature. Enjoy it's gifts.  We started challenging the almighty the creator. We lost. We are dying as a race. Dying with the burden of civilization that offers only stress and agony of loans. Sitting in one position we are destroying our body the greatest gift of nature. We don't deserve to be called the smartest of all species. We are the most idiotic of all. We are dumb. AI is taking over. We will be lost in machines soon. They are our future. We cease to be us soon. God bless us!

Nature calling!

There is a tiny little compass within us, our conscience, the keeps giving us signals. There are times when it keeps warning us of the dangers of the city life we are living. It gives us hint of being at home when we are in the middle of nature. We are all like tiny parts of the nature we are so foolishly moving away from. And that's why we feel so much at home when we go to these places. We are parts of them - the air, the water, the soil, the fire that makes us us. Not the iphones and fancy toys we are so attached to these days. Let's make it a point to live closer to nature. To breathe pure air. To drink water unadulterated by modernism. To think thoughts that are pure and in tandem with the cosmos. There is a monk within us. Why do we hide him? Why do we not listen to him? We must. Before it's too late!

Love is all around me!

I remember this peppy song from my childhood with these lyrics love is all around me, everywhere I go...I have forgotten the singer, the lyrics and everything about this song. But these few lines have stayed with me all these years.  Truly, if we look around, there is so much to love and be grateful for....from the view of the rising sun from my balcony, to the books I read, to the food I eat and the energy I feel within. It's beautiful. The whole universe is within us and there is so much to be happy about....only if we truly open our eyes and see. Life is so tiny. Today we are alive but tomorrow we may not be. So why not inhale all the beauty around so that when we close our eyes in the night, we feel the divine bliss within and cherish it, without a regret in the world. It's a beautiful life, I feel pity for thr people who waste it hating ! May God bless their souls and may they too learn to see the beauty all around, so that this earth can truly become a beautiful place to ...
