“Nothing, I am fine”
Thousands of thoughts running
through her mind.
Oh those unsaid words, she wanted
to say at the perfect time.
The hunger of her conscious mind for
all her unanswered questions.
It all scares her half to death and many
other proportions.
Yet She says “nothing, I am fine”
people came in her life and turned the page
She hurled the book and burnt it due to rage
All her flowers then grew back as thorns
She learnt to walk on them with all her flaws
Yet She says “nothing, I am fine”
The part of her, the lil child, is still alive somewhere deep in her heart
But the high walls of expectations,tear
that beautiful heart apart.
The child once with the exuberant mood
Grew up, faced the world and now smiles
once in a blue moon
Yet She says “nothing, I am fine”
Is it her way to escape from the reality
Where She sees humans but no humanity?
Or is it the way she tells herself, that
She’s the designer of her own catastrophe
If you ever see her in ruins,don’t blame
her, blame her destiny.
Yet She says “nothing….”

Words Falling
Words falling like the lovely rain
on a barren lane
Some childhood trains with
the sweet sugarcanes
Sun rays falling in chain through
the broken pane
Some innocent half brains
playing with the toy cranes
Some stills of the beautiful
days with the shining rays
Dream of the tempting places
after all the hard chases
Don’t give up on the salted
lays for the joy that it pays
The long survival races about
the suppressing life’s cases
Midnight talks with coffee
reminding the childhood toffee
Rid off pressure with hobbies
after seeing the exam copies
In a great dilemma for the 70’s
Bobby or the Margot Robbie
Some gatherings in the open
lobbies with your smiling homies
The nights are the only time
when she stays to be mine
The taste changes with lime as
my words forget to rhyme
Through the Himalayas in a
straight line the standing pine
When you love to mime always
but scare the innocent crime

A valuable Advice
Troubles are a part of life,
But facing them is an art of life.
We always need to choose the right,
To make our future better and bright.
We only need to trust in God,
Who is our Almighty Lord.
If we are keys God is the lock,
If we are sand God is the rock.
Please read this poem twice,
To understand my valuable advice.
