JUST DO IT.

Grow.

That is the best present you can gift your loved ones.

Stay Happy. Stay aware. Keep Learning.

You owe this much to those who find happiness in your smiles.

NEVER STOP BELIEVING IN MAGIC.

The child inside you will always need it to hold onto this world.

Be Kind.

It will heal your mind, heart and soul.
Also, the world will become a little nicer to be in.

Love yourself.

You are your most constant, influential companion.

Don't do it because everyone tells you to.

Don't do it to show it off.

Don't do it for the haters.

Don't do it until it makes sense.

Do it if it resonates with your heart.
Do it if it feels like a truth that feeds your soul.

Do it if it reminds you of who you really are!
Do it if the makes feel the stardust that makes you.

DO IT when it makes you jump in joy.

Then, DO IT. BY ALL MEANS.

Feed your body, mind and soul.

Help them grow, always a little more.

Jump. Jump in JOY, love.

A Time Traveller

‘Sit down’ ,she forced me
‘make sure u complete it’
And she thinks, this weird usual way
She can trigger my thoughts so as to say

But no she doesn’t quite realise
I m a traveller who visits timelines
I need no backpack, i need no food
All i need is myself all alone n a window in a room

And now that she shut that door behind her
I gear up for another visit of mine
I m probably gonna go back for now
I think, this time i will go back in time

And the pencil collapses on the paper
My head rests peacefully on the desk
I begin my journey as a traveller
Early in the 1500’s is wher i m, i guess

In the era of great men
When Da Vinci has secrets he codes
Newton is a part of a society
Probably no1 in this world knows

When the world was just about changing
And mankind has secrets to reveal
When the world is different from today
And yet still somewhere has the same feel

I then plunge for my timeline
Having seen enough i choose
To go forward ahead in life
Myself in time i can loose

Here i m come, o great future
In a flash of light, i would b there to see
How amazing or horrifying
Like we claim, would u be...

Expecting to see cars flying
And maybe high tech powered houses
I see none of that, but ur bright
And although we hv worried about u....u r all right

I see a better country, a prosperous new homeland
I see now, here a better world
And something still ancient about the wind n sands

And i return back to my room
Back to the present in time
Now i have a new lesson
A new song to rhyme

And when the teacher comes back
She asks me if i hv learnt nething to grasp
I can only smile and tell her a secret i know
‘mam, the future is only subject to our past’.

The forgotten 'TODAY'

A day is gone and therez 1 more to come
and this would happen everyday
there was a dusk and there will be a dawn
but there wont be another 'today'

you're sitting quiet and thinking deep
and a frown designs the look on your face
maybe your past has shown up inside your head
and you would yearn for another warm embrace

it made you sad and left you there
to think of what the future holds
if you will really get in life,all those nice things
that fortune teller told

Wait! stop right there and smile a moment
think of what you have in mind
its now and its still here
but its slipping out of your palm like sand..

dont forget your 'today', my friend
dont let it leave your hand
think of it and enjoy it now
coz later you wont have this 'today' to spend...

a day is gone and therez one more to come
and this would happen everyday
there was a dusk and there will be a dawn
but there won't be another 'today'

your worries will survive without your thoughts
and your concerns will find a better place for shade
for now all you can shape and mould
is what you've got before you, 'today'

a bug with light :)

A thought was born

while i walked the road

to the blank confines..

i didnt know, of who to hold

i knew i was lost

i had no clue

i could have let out a scream

and begged for a better view

but no voice, i realised

was left inside me

and i wanted to ask

to have am illion reasons to see

all hell broke loose

panik took me down

but i still didnt feel no tremor

and my face wouldnt frown

and nothing worked,

no way came out

i kept on looking

i continued to shout

finally, appeared there, in sight

a bug wid a butt of light

and i followd it untill the day dawned

coz i knew somewer, that it wud lead me right

to never return

The last time i looked back
I saw you nowhere..
Something made me wish then
For you to appear..

It should have made you,
To turn around once
To wait and think in your head
Some1z wanting fr you to come

But u walked to never return
And time kept moving
I kept looking, hope had made me numb

I waited for eternity
I waited till the end of time
Never stopped believing
You would come back n b mine

But you never came while,
my heart would beat;

And now u hover over my grave
Everyday you drop a flower and a tear
Perhaps wishing u had been a little more brave

the night

The sky colour was ink
And the stars twinkled bright
The crescent moon made me think
About the beauty of the night

The moon shone a smile
And the stars looked ready to drop
Felt like cherubs would land
And make time come to a stop

Something about tonight
Felt special, it felt right
The universe was divine
Something was different about this night

Still laying there on the grass
And lookin at the face of the heavens above
Forever wishing it to last
There was power, that the cosmos drove.

left to die..

Now that you're gone
And making me want to cry
now that you have won
nd i'm here, left to die

left me so numb,
i dont think, i dont talk
you're smiling, coz i m dumb
now, you're happy, i m limb, i dont walk.

outside , maybe the worldz fine
inside the bloodz stopped to flow
outside maybe the eyes are dry
inside, i'm murdered by them, just at a go

leave me, if you must
coz now i've stopped to care
and now i know well
to convince a bleeding heart of the unfair

now that you're gone
and makin me want to cry
now that you've won
and i'm here ,left to die

you've won, victorious as you are
burnt the hope inside me
ashed, powdered and crushed
darkened my vision, so i dont see..

and i dont care anymore..
i lay there and wait for life to pass by
coz now that you've won,
i'm here left to die
