My Undisclosed World Of Thoughts

"Boulevard of broken dreams" is a song almost everyone is familiar with. Its from the band green day. This song rings a bell in my mind, an alarm of sorts.. The guitaring of the song is amazing, the vocals are magical and the lyrics impeccable but the meaning is astounding.. Its obviously more than just music and lyrics. The first line itself has so much to say "I walk a lonely road, the only one that i have ever known", we come in this world, we are raised in a loving family, but we still walk our own separate paths. The world is too busy and full of itself to ever notice or care abt us! We walk down a long road, long maybe not in length, but long because the experiences and incidents make it so!  We may suffer a series of emotions as we go along, sweet victories, bitter defeats, accidents, sufferings, heartbreak. But its life, it has to go on. We cry, laugh,enjoy, detest, even plan our lives. We hope for the best, we have unlimited wants and fantasies   but m...

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...

--> It starts with “What is your religion? What ethnicity do you belong to? Are you from a minority community?” and narrows down to “Are you Hindu? Are you Muslim?” People just carelessly spill out “I’m a Hindu, I hate Muslims” or conversely “I’m a Muslim, I hate Hindus.” People just love to quote the above given statements without realizing their overall impact. May I kindly ask why?? Did they personally come and harm your existence? Or did they do something bad to your life? Did they come and break your toys when you were young or puncture the wheels of your car? Pepl love to jump to unworthy implications and the younger lot mindlessly follow the notions set by the elders!  I understand that terrorism has been linked to islam but that doesn’t mean that every muslim you see is bad or a terrorist. The message in the recent movie “My Name is Khan” was crystal clear, yet ppl fail to perceive it and watch the movie for the star studded cast! Its awful when a person ...

Posting it very very late..written by me a few years ago! The Mumbai blasts triggered my nerve cells I went gasping for breath saying WHAT DA HELL?? The faces once happy were as sad as they could get, It was a sight I would rather try to forget. People were lying motionless on da floors, Seemed like these terrorists have got no bloody chore!! I sat glued to da T.V. all da time It was sad to see the scenes of the horrific crime! I din’t know whether to laugh at da misery or cry at da loss? People were killed without a cause! What a security lapse it had been, To let dose dreaded terrorists in! Families cried, families sobbed and frndz broke down, At the fact that their dears would never again be found The blasts have angered me well from within, I feel lucky to survive each day since then! I think twice wthr to go out or not, Safety is out of question, fills me with horrifying thoughts Why do these terrorists kill innocents They do not know what da loss mea...

                               -Sahil K 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...

Ever wondered who you are ? Why are u in this world ? What was the mere purpose of you being born? Why are u facing these troubles? Why the pain? Why the conditions? If you are seeking an answer, I fail to deliver cuz I'm myself in this jeopardy! Why did I come hustling to this world??? I try to find the answer but it seems like a puzzle waiting to discovered but never is!! Well basically I'm not one of those inexplicably charming of people that people are suddenly attracted to me, but then I ain't that unseemingly ugly too. I'm not the coolest of company but then I ain't that bad either! I'm not the most kind-hearted of ppl, I will not sell myself out to feed the poor, but then I'm not that unkind..I'd give him something to eat if I have smthng with me! I'm selfish when it comes to me, maybe not as selfish as ppl might make it seem but at a certain level I am, the world is like that so I have my guard up! But then if given the chance, I do go out ...

                      MY DAY                                              -SAHIL K The window opens and the day breaks in, Ruffling hair, rubbing eyes, streaching hands and an occasional spin. The day has far more yet to offer But I’m sleepy, sleep is like an indespensible buffer. I have to perceive the inevitable rays of the sun, Yet the flummeries of the day have long begun. To nature, I give no thought, I just go abt my chores, The quirks go on as the day soars. The monotony of things strikes, so does the mundane word, It keeps twitching inside me like a swirl. As the day goes by, the more morose I get, Seeing the congenial expressions and ...
