Meeting Myself

  Meeting Myself Have you experienced the calmness radiating from moon  behind slow moving clouds  Especially when it's not a full moon  Have you witnessed birds chirping in language unknown Fluttering from one bark to the other  Enjoying their world, without bothering  After sometime, they would be left disowned Speaking to mountains - why do they stand tall? aren't they tired ? Their heads are held high, Showing the integrity is owned, it cannot be hired. Serene ocean waters exemplifying patience at its peak In this insane world, it's 1% of such calmness I constantly seek. When I have nothing to write, I tend to look around, Poems are written so perfectly  Without unnecessary words or sound. Looking at lotus, untouched by water, inspite of being in water Such lessons are selfless and are rare to be found. When I have so much to tell but I am short if words I seek help, without hesitation I look around and my surroundings showers inspiration  Tel...

आज अपने दिल की सुनेंगे

 बाहर के शोर को  कुछ नियमो के जोर को  पहली किरण के भोर को  आज हम खुलके कहेंगे  कि हम अपने दिल की सुनेंगे     दौड़ती हुई ज़िंदगी को  घायल हुई मौजूदगी को  अंदर छिपी सादगी को  आज थोड़ा बाहर निकालेंगे  बस, हम अपने दिल की सुनेंगे  हम  दुनिया की क्यों सुने  अपने छोड़ गैरो को क्यों चुने  हररोज़ नया रिश्ता क्यों बुने  आज अपने आप में मस्त रहेंगे  और थोड़ा अपने दिल की सुनेंगे दिल की आवाज़ थोड़ी अजीब है  मनो दूर से आ रही हो  भले सबसे करीब है  थोड़ी धीमी,पर मनो ज़ोर से घुर्राती और उसकी न सुनो  फिर आपका नसीब है  आज इस आवाज को नहीं रोकेंगे  चाहे जो हो, हम अपने दिल की सुनेंगे 

I cannot thank you enough

I cannot thank you enough ! Getting up every morning, When a quarter million people don't, Fortunate to see this sun rising when many aren't sure, would they or won't Taking out a moment today to ask Him, Can I thank you enough ? Leaving home for an adventurous journey, Spending 12 hours of my day. To secure a living with so called "money", But, my return is not assured anyway Today, if I happen to return home, Can I thank you enough ? Eating without thinking, how will food digest This magnificent system, working at His behest. Unknowingly, day and night I keep eating, And with every morsel, fuel keeps converting, Today, if I haven't slept starving, Can I thank you enough? A billion neurons occupy my brain, Taking me to places which I want to restrain, But it would also place memories of lifetime Not realizing the power behind that sustain, Today, some thoughts erupted and I joined my hands, to thank you. But, can I really Thank you enough ! -shingala_the_stor...

Loving myself - Again

Loving myself - yet again! I am falling in love with myself again and again A beautiful feeling that I cannot restrain Enough of bullying, now shutting ears to outside crap, I have risen above and find foolish now to complain Because, I am falling in love with myself again and again. Being conditioned to compare every moment, I was blatantly called "embarrassment" Whether it is a crumpled shirt or muddy shoes, It became persona's advertisement. Hello ! I am who I am,  not here anymore to entertain, This attitide makes me fall in love with myself again and again. I am messed up so what! Should it matter ? I cannot stop my mind, if it loves to chatter Allowing my thoughts to take a world tour, I still hold faith in its character Such a small size, why torture this brain Love this messy self, again and again. I smile at this moment and then crib instantly My dual personality at times drives me crazy Changing mood in split of seconds, And then riding this emotional roller coa...

Here is a tough guy in the making

Here is a tough guy in the making Well, he often doesn't react, Speak what is required exact, He went to a school called "life" where his 1st lesson was about "unlearning" Here is a tough guy in the making A lot accumulated not worth a penny Realized later, treasure wasn't outside any, Putting precious life moments at stake, When some moments were alarming, Indicated that tough guy was in the making. Having children when he was satisfied, His world changed, when thrown aside, By his very own what he termed "life" His perception of "family" is now changing, Here is the tough guy in the making. What's advice would you give him ? Be strong and don't get affected ? Be with this world but still don't be connected ? Does these opposites actually work,  This Metaphor of life gets me thinking, That somewhere, a tough guy is in the making.

मुझे अपनी मस्ती में रहने दो

 दो पल की ज़िन्दगी है  साहब, मुझे अपनी मस्ती में रहने दो मेरी किताब के पन्ने सीमित है  कुछ पर जिम्मेदारी का बोझ,  कुछ पर दर्द भरे किस्सों का अतीत है  उम्मीद से भरा अब अगला पन्ना खोलने दो  साहब, मुझे अपनी मस्ती में रहने दो दो वक़्त की रोटी और कितना तमाशा  छन सिक्को ने संबंधो को क्या खूब तराशा  सभी उल्जनो में पड़ना है, पर उलझना नहीं  बस सुबह की चाय हमे चैन से पीने दो साहब, मुझे मेरी मस्ती में रहने दो   घड़ी के कांटो से मेरी पुरानी दुश्मनी है  जब वक़्त को रोकना चाहे, तभी दौड़ती है  और कभी मिनिटो को घंटो खींचती है  समय के साथ, ये खट्टी, मीठी रोकझोक चलने दो  साहब, मुझे मेरी मस्ती में रहने दो दो पल की ज़िन्दगी है  साहब, मुझे अपनी मस्ती में रहने दो

What's your plan !

What's your plan ! When someone asked, what's your plan, Staring at the walls, I said, "I wish I knew". Isn't it awesome to just be there, Enjoy the path leading somewhere, I said, I am at some place unknown, But surely different from where I began I don't know, whats my plan. Hey, its important to envision your goal, You can measure where you reached, It will give some satisfaction to your soul, It gives clarity of what you can't and what you can It is necessary Ankit, to have a good plan. I disagree pal, You sure, at all times my goal remains the same ? Something which was close to my heart,  Is bursting today into flame, My yesterday was a different world than today. I do not wish to see how far I ran I prefer to go with flow and not have a plan Isn't it okay to get lost, I know I will find a way If not, I will cherish the the unknown stay At places from where I constantly move on Knowing nothing is permanent during the day. So my answer to you is  ...
