A catastrophe,
Not to acknowledge;
The beauty that makes you whole.
To choose to live in shadows, when you're born to be the torch.
Muse on that candle, let light aflame,
The weapon that you handle, will guide you to your aim.
You're
A sonnet being written, defusing its disclaim;
Or a wolf in a mitten, refusing to be tamed?
A bird on the willow, singing to be cheered;
Or the sun on the meadow, disproving to be steered?
Rise with it at dawn break, and hop the train away.
Tie your hums to a snowflake, and throw it all astray.
Some days are meant for sadness, others are meant for cheer,
So lead your ways with gladness, and the rest will be here!

Laughter preserved
When life punches at your face
The time when every time you walk with untied lace
Life mocks at your existence
And fear follows you despite your insistence
That's when coming back has a charm
That's when you become stronger to opposing harm
Inside the mocking there is a motivation
The strength the uphold yourself in life's location
Life may take a ugly term some day
But ugliness is not going to follow all the way
There is laughter preserved for your future
Waiting to unveil with your beautiful nature

Dear Mirakee,
I dont know where to begin with.
I saw people writing about there experiences and pouring out the love for you. Felt good after reading it. so i decided to lend my words too.
so, here i begin.
I love writing. It keeps me sane. And then after using like two or three different writing apps, i came across you and volla! you changed my life. Your are not merely just an app for me but my creative diary.
While writing my journals, and after reading them, i realised that "damn! i can create quotes too! (i started my poetry long time ago though).
Then, slowly, i made like 10-15 quotes and people started to like it. I simply share my stuffs over social media and there i was appreciated for my literal work efforts.And that's how i started to give my full potential to poetry and quotes.
The best part i like about you is that the #challenges. Different styles of poetry, like honestly, i didnt know a thing about tailrhyme poetry, one liners, mondo, etc! . Thanks to you, now iam getting acquainted with new style and swings in my poetry rhythm.
I love to read other works too. And i too learn from them. i love mirakee community, its people. They are amazing. Generous too. I use my spare minutes at work or at some stupid gathering or events to go through the mirakee timeline.
You are one of my muse. My sustenance. My peace.
Thanks a lot. For people like me, who were looking for something more than just an app.
With love,
kamiKaze mind.

Challenges
The more diamond is cut the brighter it sparkles. The more gold is burnt in the fire the greater it glows. The more sugarcane is crushed, the more sweetness and juice it gives.
Challenges come in life to make you stronger, sweeter and shine from within.
- shri shri ravi Shankar -
Sometimes life gives you challenges, not to destroy you but to strengthen your abilities and to help you to discover who you really are.

ഒരു വാക്ക്....
മിറാകീയിൽ എത്തുമ്പോൾ ഒരുപോലെ ചിന്തിക്കുന്ന ഒരു കൂട്ടം മനുഷ്യരെ കണ്ടെത്താനായതിന്റെ വലിയ സന്തോഷമായിരുന്നു. അക്ഷരങ്ങളുമായി പ്രണയത്തിൽ ആയിരുന്നവരുടെ സ്നേഹം... കാണാതെ ആകുമ്പോഴുള്ള അന്വേഷണങ്ങൾ... മനസ്സുനീറി എഴുതിയ വാക്കുകൾക്ക് കമന്റ് ബോക്സിൽ വന്നു നൽകുന്ന ധൈര്യം. അങ്ങനെ ആരെന്നു അറിയാത്ത എവിടെയെന്നു അറിയാത്ത എന്നാൽ എഴുത്തിൽ ഒന്നിച്ച തൂലികാനാമത്തിൽ പരസ്പരം വിളിക്കുന്ന ഒരു കുടുംബം. പക്ഷേ കുറച്ചു നാളായി വല്ലാത്ത ഒരു ശൂന്യതയാണ് ഇവിടെ.അപ്ഡേഷൻ വന്നപ്പോൾ നഷ്ടപെട്ട പഴയ അക്കൗണ്ട് തുടങ്ങി വായനയും എഴുത്തും കമന്റ് ബോക്സിൽ സന്തോഷം ഉണർത്തുന്ന സംസാരവും എല്ലാം നഷ്ടപ്പെട്ടു. ഇന്ന് ഞാൻ വായിക്കുന്നുമില്ല എന്റെ എഴുത്തുകൾ സ്വീകരിക്കപ്പെടുന്നുമില്ല. പക്ഷേ ഉള്ളിൽ നിറയുന്ന ചിന്തകളെ അക്ഷരങ്ങൾ ആക്കാതിരിക്കാൻ വയ്യ.
ഏറെനാളായുള്ള സ്വപ്നമാണ് ഒരു പുസ്തകം എഴുതണം എന്നത്. പക്ഷേ ആത്മവിശ്വാസക്കുറവ് മുതൽ നീണ്ടു കിടക്കുന്ന എന്നെ പിന്നോട്ട് വലിക്കുന്ന നിരവധി കാര്യങ്ങൾ എന്നെ തടഞ്ഞു. ഇവിടെ കുത്തികുറിക്കുന്ന ചെറിയ ചിന്തകൾക്ക് അപ്പുറം എന്തെങ്കിലും എഴുതണം എന്ന മോഹം ശക്തമായി എന്നെ ഇന്ന് പിടികൂടിയിരിക്കുന്നു. ആരും വായിക്കാതെ ആരും അറിയാതെ ഒരുപക്ഷേ എന്റെ ഈ എഴുത്തുകൾ ഇവിടെ അവശേഷിക്കുമായിരിക്കും. പക്ഷേ ഒരവസരം കൂടെ,ഒരു ആഗ്രഹം കൂടെ, ശക്തമായ ഒരു തോന്നലിനെ കൂടെ വിട്ടുകളഞ്ഞു എന്ന കുറ്റബോധം കൊണ്ട് കരയാൻ വയ്യ. അതുകൊണ്ട് കുറ്റബോധത്തിൽ നിന്ന് ഒരു മോചനത്തിനായി എഴുതുന്നു.എന്റെ ആദ്യ പുസ്തകത്തിൽ ചേർക്കാൻ കൊതിക്കുന്ന അദ്ധ്യായങ്ങൾ.

Never get tired of the life challenges.
Within you there is potentiality

National Youth Day 2021 Part-1
The kind of challenges our parents/grandparents have faced, we are fortunate that we don't have to face those kind of challenges.
However it doesn't mean that our lives are free of challenges, it's just that we are facing different sets of challenges than them.
And on top of that Covid19 Pandemic have put more challenges in our lives.

And it gave it's vigour making me stronger

It's spring time
Reminding myself how cold things have become in and around me, I lied down
and also to self, about the shivers that's running through my spine.
Staging a fake argument in the head about the reasons, I stay occupied.
With lot of courage, I tried to fill in the words with an extra coat of sugar, and I let it all out in the head.
With a sigh, I accepted the fear that's creeping in, with the frightful sight of new beginnings, before the spring.
After all it was the season of new beginnings, told myself a million times.
Being careful of how not to let the fear of it pop out.
Its okay to shed few dead and infected leaves, I consoled myself.
Trying to forget the struggles and pain that went in.
Is spring coming in to warm me up or bring new challenges to drown me down?
Has the season of cold has come to an end? Or is it just a glimpse of spring that's ahead?
I know it's spring time but can you hold on for a while?
So that I could hug the beginnings and weep atleast a little for the loss.

"SOMETIMES", you need to know..
sometimes its not your fault, but you need to accept things as they are...
sometimes you need to find peace in this rush, all hurdles and challenges you are currently facing requires a break.
sometimes you need to appreciate things which youve been provided.
sometimes you need to be YOURSELF and not what others are expecting you to be..ups and downs are part of it.
sometimes society expect much more better things from us, but we aren't able to match with those expectations and it is totally fine and acceptable.
sometimes we need to thank our best mate who being THERE in every happy and sorrow moments of your life,
sometimes you made a decision which you later realize that such decision was the wrong decision but believe me that was the best decision you had made as per those situations.

Invisible
A mother's care and love is invisible, but her presence is what doesn't let you feel anythings absence.
A father's support and strength is invisible, but his presence standing by your side moves out all hurdles.

Like two sides of a coin
Or two sides of the same person
Like blades of grass in summer and fall
Or the rising and setting of the sun
Like life and death
An endless cycle
Opposing ends of the same string
One of glee, the other of gloom

If I were a mermaid
with skin as smooth as silk
I would hang from the walls of china
So everyone could see
If I were a mermaid
with voice so crystal clear
I would sing from the highest mountain
So everyone could hear
If I were a mermaid
with hair as bright as gold
I would shine than the brightest star
So everything I touch glowed
If I were a mermaid
Knowing man with heart so selfish
I would hide beneath the ocean
So I'll have another day to wish

Unknown path
Stormy winds,
Fog on the way,
Snow falling,
She was shivering.
It all seemed so unclear.
She didn't know the way.
She was still walking
Hoping to find the sunshine.
She was tired.
She knew she can overcome it.
A little hope in her heart,
And she was walking down the paths.
Running when she was afraid.
It all seemed so unclear,
But she will find the sunshine.

muffled heartbeats
I watched you from afar,
from how those starry eyes shine
and how they blink brightly in the dark,
to how you lock a stare with mine
I watched you from a distance,
you are close yet too far for me to reach,
like you are a star in the night sky's trance
you shine too bright but light years away
I watched you tell stories,
about life, about the love of your life
and how you even shine brighter
because love has bloomed in you
I watched you shelter me in your arms,
as storms and hurricanes pass us by,
as I cry out along with the pouring rain,
you held me sheltered with warmth
I always watched you do things,
but you never looked back at me
and these muffled heartbeats of mine
Will forever be silenced by your glee
