THE FOUR ALPHABET WORD

The four alphabet word- what is it?
Is it the feeling of wearing sweaters that our grandma knits,
Or is it the feeling of holding our favourite people with a gift.
This four alphabet word,
May be the feeling of giving books to a nerd,
Or it may be when our parents, before exams, give us sugar with curd.
I think this four alphabet word is a feeling,
A feeling that tells us how with life we are dealing.
But I also know that this four alphabet word is not when someone on one leg is kneeling.
Because this four alphabet word is our soul,
This four alphabet word is love,
And this four alphabet word is love and only love.

Somedays

– Somedays,
I feel more alive than ever.
Leaving behind the evermore pain,
I decided to live.
More confident,
More passionate,
And what’s better is the carelessness that runs through me.
Those days, I wish to fly,
Touching the clouds
High.
My companions are the birds today.
My destination is the limitless sky.
I never wish to land again;
My destination is the limitless sky.
All I have is aplomb,
But what they idolize is the way I espouse it.
The days I love myself bring grandeur with them.
Those days, I wish to bloom,
Spreading fragrance everywhere.
My companions are the lazy snails today.
My destination is nowhere.
I wish to float around, airy and free.
My destination is nowhere.
Somedays,
I wish to do more than just exist
To live.

An Incomplete Picture

Some points were while others not touched;
An incomplete picture was formed.
It was not a kind of something:
The mind preceding the sense organ
Establishing contact with the object..
It’s normally what happens
In the process naturally.
Leaving out what was favourable to me,
That which was convenient to them chosen..
But the truth couldn’t be delayed long
For who could know me more than myself
Seeing through it and improving..!
