चलती का नाम गाड़ी

बस, चलता जा,  चाहे दिशा कोई भी हो  तू अपने आप को ही पाएगा,  सामने शीशा कोई भी हो  किस मुकाम तक पहुचना है,  इसका अंदाजा मत लगा  हर मुक़ाम के उपर, और एक मुक़ाम पाएगा, चाहे तुम्हारा पेशा कोई भी हो  याद रखना, बस एक शर्त है, रुकना नहीं, वक़्त कम है,  कहीं रास्ता सीधा है, कहीं गड्ढे पाएगा  चाहे तुम्हारा रास्ता कोई भी हो  मंजिल उतनी ही करीब है  जितनी तू दूर समझता है  सफर के अंत में, तू एक नया सफर ही पाएगा, चाहे मंज़िल का पता कोई भी हो  अकेले चलना है, किसी और की आशा मत रख, क्योंकि,अखिर में खुदको अकेला ही पाएगा,  चाहे तुम्हारे 'अपने' कोई भी हो  सोचा है, जब हम चलते है  एक कदम आगे, और एक पीछे छूटता है  जिंदगी का उसूल है, कुछ छूटेगा, कुछ पाएगा, चाहे इस सफर का मुसाफिर कोई भी हो                            - shingala_the_storyteller

Day Dream

Knock knock... I am here to meet my therapist I have a problem that perpetually exist I seem to have lost myself somewhere,  Being at home, I feel like a tourist  Shouldn't this so called 'normalcy'  Have some kind of checklist Knock knock.... I am here to my therapist  Sometime, I love music and writing Sometime, I just want to stay low, do nothing Grab a coffee, sitting at my favourite corner Suprisingly, I hear my clock ticking  Why does my personality get a sudden twist ? Knock knock... I desperately need to meet my Therapist  I want to talk but then, no one's around When, they are, I barely hear my sound  How contradictory can this life be It's like walking upside down on the ground Is it really easy to be an optimist, Knock knock... I definitely need a therapist What role am I playing, I am so confused Do I have a choice to make, life refused Tired of switching personas from work to home But looking at so many facets, I am amused Am I the role it...

गुमशुदा "मैं "

कहीं खो गया है वो  लगता है, तकिये के नीचे  कहीं छुप गया है वो  बताना अगर आपको दिख गया   पता नहीं कहाँ खो गया वो  सम्भाल लेता मुझे, अगर, घर या ऑफिस का माहौल बिगड़ा  "सब ठीक हो जाएगा",  ये दिलासा देता मुझे,  सन्नाटे को आवाज देता था वो  पता नहीं कहाँ खो गया वो  अरे, दोस्त था वो मेरा,  जब सबने साथ छोड़ा,  उसने पकड़ रखा था हाथ मेरा   इन आँखों से मेरे ज़ज्बात को समझता वो, पता नहीं कहाँ खो गया वो  फिर एक दिन, जब जरूरत पडी  याद किया उसे हर गड़ी, पहले, सिर्फ़ इशारों की भाषा समझता वो  आज, चिल्लाने पर भी नहीं आता वो  पता नहीं, कहाँ खो गया है वो  आज अचानक उसकी याद आई  मैंने बाहर देखा,  वो नहीं था, अंदर से उसने आवाज लगाई  "मैं, तुम्हारा "मैं " हूँ भाई " जो नाम देना है दे दो,  मैं ही हूँ तुम्हारी परछाईं कहाँ  मिलेगा जब कहीं था ही नहीं  शायद खुद, अपने आप से खो गया है वो  - Ankit P Shingala 

Transitioning Life

Grey hair isn't just an indication It's time baby, grow up Life's not gonna halt at one station Passenger you are, better behave like one Your current adress is not your destination. Belive me when I say, Grey hair isn't just an indication. Jokingly you say, "Time Flies" And after crossing some major milestones You end up making for your lies You see that lady on death bed, Fighing cancer, counting days instead When every cell of her body cries You jokingly say  "I wonder how time flies" Or With hotstar, prime, netfix,  "I am just killing time" you say I have nothing to do worthy my stay This planet is boring enough I need to strike something night and day Lien your hour to that daily wager, He has his daughter's school fee to pay "Killing time", I mean really you dare to say ! So, when you see that grey hair again  Talk to that guy in mirror, don't refrain There is a reason behind wrinkles and pain Sooner or later you wil...

Pure Devotion

When Ankit decided to meet God, At age - 6, he couldn't be stopped Packing sandwiches and juice,  Leaving home early, His faith couldn't be dropped. Path was long, tired he was Chose to sit in a park, now afternoon it was Other side of a bench, an old woman he saw Whose smile mesmerized every creature  What a divine lady she was. Hungry she seemed,  Hence offered her sandwiches, A sip of juice, she would take Would satisfy Ankit's hunger for ages Her constant smile radiated divinity Before leaving the park,  Hugged her tight, Witnessing such purity Ankit wouldn't forget such a sight. Came home, overjoyed Exclaimed,"Mumma, I met God today !" She has wrinkles on face With smile that no one can replace She is a true embodiment of grace The old lady went home, Starving since a day Tears pouring and she said, "Son, I finally met God today, Sandwiches and Juice he brought, He is way younger than I thought, I wish to meet him again Is he the one I always sought...
