WILL U EVER UNDERSTAND ME?

Its not the way it seems to be
It always eventually comes down on me

Descends more like a responsibility
Like an unearthed philosophy

Do you even know what its like walking in my shoes?
Or do you always think that I let it all too loose?

You’re unmindful of my frame of mind
I don’t expect you to understand, at least be kind!

Why don’t you sneak a peak into my mind?
Tell me exactly what you find!

Something all wired up wrong inside
Does that make you feel I never tried?

I have battles within me, things no one knows
I may smile up front, I’m not the one who shows

You see me smile, I’ve seen the tears
You’ve seen the goals, I’ve known the fears!

I’m not a machine, Please understand!
I can’t weave gold out of mere strands.

You make me feel I’m imperfect for life
My confidence shatters with a nose-dive

I’m human, let me be as I’ve been.
My attempts and efforts will never be seen!

WILL YOU EVER TRY TO UNDERSTAND ME?
MATTER OF FACT-YOU’LL ALWAYS JUST LET IT BE!


Peace!

AND THAT MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE

My cousin Sakshi(right) and I This is a true incident. Long ago, when I was a kid. I particularly can't recall my childhood as such but this incident runs fresh in my memory! It was the year of 1997 or 98 I suppose. Pretty far back! I had to attend a parent teacher meeting at school (JASPAL KAUR PUBLIC SCHOOL it was in Shalimar Bagh, New Delhi). It really bothered me, it was a menacing day where teachers would just tell my parent particularly these few things "he's very shy", "he doesn't speak", "he's aloof", "he doesn't participate in activities" and I always ended up getting a rather blood staining F in extra-curricular activities in my report card! I was a serious kid, I never talked much, I associated with very few people. I was this little child with lots of thoughts in the head! Lots of doubt, maybe not about sciences or mathematics (I was pathetic at Math initially) but about how people were behaving around m...

DAYS SINCE MIGRATION

MY SIDE OF THE STORY!! Sitiing in my room, one day I was wondering what it was like living in Kashmir, what was the lifestyle of people there, how they lived in the cold valleys, what they ate, how they celebrated, how they socialised? This was when I was very small, so I asked my mother about it, she gave me detailed stories of their illustrative and glorious past. The way they enjoyed the lush green valleys, the wide playgrounds, the snow clad mountains was mesmerising. I thoroughly enjoyed the stories.I longed for living in such a place, away from the hustle of the city life. Life was peaceful there, everyone looked out for each other, festivities were celebrated with great splendour. All these were enough to generate curiosity and make me explore the topic even more. I have since then heard real funny, touchy, and sometimes exaggerated descriptions of incidents that took place in the valley of Kashmir from all my relatives, the smile on their face and the spark in their eyes are pr...

A FEW PRICELESS ENCOUNTERS

Travelling has always been of great interest to me. It opens me up to the infinite hidden things that we miss and those many more people who change the way you percieve things! He asked me if I needed anything to eat.  "Saab vada pav, pav bhaji, misal pav, kuch khaog e?". I shook my head in disagreement and moved forward neglecting something that struck me right away. An impulse of acknowledgement, that something was out of place but I ignored it and moved forward to where I was headed. This was in Panchagani, where I had come on a family visit. We had gone to visit a place called 'table top', so called due to some god forsaken reason that I dint bother much about! So after the trivial encounter or so I thought, I moved forward to the ground which stretched to a circumference of 8km roughly and had a breathtaking view to say the least. We had come around dusk, so we watched the sun with awe and sat there soaking the diminishing radiance of the setting sun! Als...
