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!

Oblivious to oblivion

We humans are getting more and more engrossed in things that don't matter and replacing it with things that do matter. We keep track of every new I phone model but we have lost track of the losing greenbelt and nature. We are killing everything that is keeping us alive. But we are happy to live now selling our tomorrow's.  It's a sad state of affairs. We are looking externally for things which are within us. And things which are external and unnecessary we are taking it internally - like peer pressure and loud lifestyles. Where is the sense? Where is the moral compass that controls our actions? Wake up humanity...before we are erased from this planet. We need the planet the planet doesn't need us. Let's not forget that, ever.

2020: adios amigo!

The year 2020 was cruel to most of us, but it taught us many positive lessons. It made us appreciate and be grateful for all that we have, and realise what we really need in life to be happy. It was a lesson needed for the world to reboot and rethink of its priorities. It reminded us that we have been making the mistake of using people and loving things when it needs to be the other way round. It made us realise the importance of the people in our lives - even if they are the people who do mundane jobs in our households and whom we tend to take for granted. It also made us realise that our wealth can't protect us from the virus or a calamity, but our fellow humans can; the great work done by the medical fraternity, the workers who helped us stay alive during the lockdown, was truly commendable. No words can really describe how grateful the rest of us are for these courageous selfless servants of humanity. I hope we have learnt the lessons and learnt them well as a race, as life ten...
