Afterlife

Like a coffin I lay 
Drenched in sorrow
Of the horrid days 
And the nerves slowed down with time
Pitiful celebrations of life and moments
O miserable modern man ! 
Look up the sky is calling!! 
Look down your sins lay buried on the hellish ground;
And yet in these earthly rounds... 
Wander off wherever your heart pounds , 
Wait and watch till your love turns into foolishness 
Tis funny how often we fight for rights 
Girls in their tights and men with great heights
And oh goodness! how strong your fight is , 
Tis only the weak hearts that magnetically attracts 
Weak wins over the strength cup
Till you finally understand what life is ! 
Bits and pieces of love once lost ;
Now regained with utmost care . 
Where heaven and earth resides
And hell quite often to complete the most
Never ending cycle of good, bad and the ugly
Fills life appropriately with opposing sides of mankind. 
By the time chaos ends ;
We lay on our bygone souls 
Deeply mourned by the people we love
And hereafter heaven welcomes ....

Sense of Belongingness

    Sense of Belongingness within ourselves is quite natural in this elixir of life; as we tend to cling on to our chosen one's.  That ray of hope drives us to move ahead in life. The very fact that we all are ultimately 'self 'as we come alone and depart alone makes us harder to think as we are living in this temporal illusory world that projects our very situational phases .  It's like a humane maze...Interdependence within dependence .  Paradoxically speaking, we tend to be independent whereas in actuality we can never be fully independent in this world as God's creation was humans ,not robots.  We have to cling on . We have to belong to someone in order to be independent. In this somewhat daily chaotic course of events of our life we are somehow dependent on others for some or the other reason.  We 'belonged' in the past, we 'belong' in the present and will leave a trace of 'belongingness' in the future.  However, it's true that our ...

Humane Expectations

It is famously said by someone whom I know very well that - "Don't expect anything from life as it's full of uncanny stories toggling up and down with disheartening consequences that will only make u all the more morose " Well let me put this straight onto you. Through hope, belief, trust, faith we tend to grow the seeds of our expectations and so we must sow what we reap as ; "practice what you preach" is somewhere correct for all the practical folks out there. If we have the aforementioned 'hope' within our mind and body, automatically we tend to expect. I believe expectations only come from the people you love the most. With the love and concern that you shower towards your loved ones you might as well expect the same in return as Newton's third law of motion goes by our very instincts. .  You may say sacrifice and forgiveness helps us to expect nothing in return. But we are humane my dear friend! Physically made of flesh and blood...

Song Synopsis of Kuch Toh Log Kahenge(Amar Prem)

  "Kuch toh log kahenge Logon ka kaam hain kehnaa Choro bekaar ki baaton mein Kaheen beet na jaaye  rainaa... " (From the iconic cult movie-Amar Prem(1972)  Music-RD Burman Lyrics-Anand Bakshi Singer-Kishore Kumar)  What a soulful masterpiece! Originally written by Anand Bakshi the lyrics and the overall synopsis of this song has it's relevance even today.  As we all know society has always been full of judgemental critics. This song symbolises how Society often mimicks and criticises and in fact to be honest still continues to question whatever we do no matter good or bad, and how they assume things without even knowing the reality of that particular circumstance or scenario.  This famous song sung by Kishore Kumar is loved by millions as it has an universality that is accepted widely by the mass. It carries the spirit of truth and ignorance. Remember the times we often say Ignorance is a bliss?  Well, it is right in many cases. Appropriately, in this...
