You look at me and give your remarks -
Ahh, you look so thin, put on some weight.
You have got a pimple, lol!
What's that? An acne scar?
You look so tan. Apply that mask I told you about last time.
So much oil on your hair. Stop putting that bun everyday.
Change your hairstyle. Aren't you bored with it yet?
Did you forget to apply the eyebrow pencil?
Dab on some powder. Your face looks so oily.
You are so short, haha!
Why is it always about this?
Why can't you dig a little deeper than my appearance?
Why does your eyes come to a stop at my looks?
Why can't you scan a bit more?
How about complimenting me about my smile and radiance today?
How about stop being a walking talking mirror giving out opinions?

What makes you hide your pain from the world?
What makes you pour it as lines and name them as "random thoughts"?
Are they really random?

ये दुनिया बड़ी अजीब है
गलतियाँ तो बहुत देखती है
पर जब कोई खामोश होता है
उसका दुखः नही देख पाती

Living in fantasies can only help you for a while but finding a solution by surviving reality will bring out the best in you.
Problems are like leeches,
they stick to you,
suck your peace everyday,
waiting to be thrown out by you.

And there is this pattern that I am tired of-
You choose to be alone because you fear to be left alone by someone again so you keep distancing yourself from everyone or anyone who tries to know you or come close to you.
But also there are times when you try so hard to overcome that fear, after repeated discussions with the voices in your head and heart you finally for a moment listen to your heart and come out of your cocoon, hold on to a string that connects you with another soul, but when you feel love stroking the barriers of your heart, you freeze.
Waves of memories hits you and sinks you in the past letting you swallow the salty lies again and again, you swim, swim so hard to reach the shore of loneliness to save yourself from the currents of agony that might drown you.
You promise yourself to never let that happen again and add another layer of coldness to keep the warmth of love away.
Yet there are times when you crave to be loved and step in the vicious pattern again...

Tears have stopped stinging my wounds of past, now they flow like rain soothing a parched land letting my soul breathe in the petrichor of peace.

Music- An invisible parachute
Lets you jump from heights when you're feeling low, ready to save you from colliding with the ground of hopelessness.

If it hadn't been for the fear of agony striking us again,
there would be more confessions of love in person
that often gets choked betwixt the pages.

I rarely step in the attic these days
Mostly you would find me standing at the door, staring, clueless, numb
It feels like the boxes stuffed with your memories call out my name
The picture albums, the old cassettes, the love letters still smells like you
The attic smells like you, my love
Pages of the books crave for your touch just like me
Your favorite radio doesn't work anymore,
it hates your absence, may be it loved to play only for you.
Remember, how the winds from the window would touch our skin and refresh our soul?
May be they left after you left.
I have moved a few clothes up here, not to make room for my dresses, but for yours, the closet is all yours, my love.
I hate sleeping on the bed, may be too much space is suffocating me.
Passing out on the couch wearing your tshirt and socks makes my lonely nights a bit comfortable.
I miss you. Our home misses you. I love you.

A poem begins as a river of feelings flowing to the ocean of thoughts, a home for the lost souls where they explore and seek solace in words.

Dreams
When you have a bad dream, it wakes you up.
Then what about a bad experience, doesn't it wake you up in life?

Stay hungry!!
The more you will be hungry, more will be your eating speed, more faster you will be.
Same as in learning.
Deadlines, lots of work in a short period of time, helps you work faster.
If you want to learn anything quickly, stay hungry.
Here's a tip!!
Before starting reading, ask relevant questions about the topic(in your mind), try to check out what you know and what you don't.
Then start reading.
You will read fast, understand faster and it will be precise reading. The most important facts you will be able to grasp and retain for a longer duration of time.
So stay hungry, stay curious!

The greatest fear is not about failing;
But not willing to try.
We make assumptions to what,
Could be the outcome;
What worse can happen.
We are haunted;
When we don't reach the potential,
When we worry we won't be able to,
Perform our best.
We lose confidence;
We doubt ourselves.
Knowing such consequences,
We don't act upon things,
That we know, we should.
But being caught in the whirlpool of negativity;
All it takes, to break from it, is
A leap of faith.

Life is simple.
Do what keeps you alive.
Do what makes you alive.

CHANGE
You feel awestruck,
When someone says;
Something different about you.
When you watch an awesome movie,
Sometimes it changes your perspective;
You judge things differently.
When you read an inspiring book,
Your attitude towards life changes;
Troubles don't seem to trouble you then.
When you meet someone legendary,
You start knowing more about you;
Your strengths and weaknesses.
When you think about yourself,
Self realization is what comes;
That how much you need to improve.
When you are in a worst situation,
The only thing you can do to survive it;
Is change yourself on the inside,
Then everything else outside changes beautifully.
Transformation is what people fear,
No one wants to come out of their cocoon,
Comfort zone is a cocoon,
But life is more splendid outside it.

Time is what your brain perceives.
Calm your mind, time slows down.
When excited, time runs like a race car.
Trying to remain calm enough,
In every situation,
In every opportunity,
In every difficulty,
In every calamity,
In every festivity;
So that every wrong decisions are avoided,
So that every opportunity is utilized,
So that every silly mistakes are not made,
So that every moment becomes worthy,
So that life can be enjoyed the fullest.

Why in this world,
Is easy to judge rather than care?
Is easy to smile than a genuine laugh?
Is easy to be reserved rather than showing feelings?
Is easy to be rational rather than emotional?
Is easy to suppress rather than crying heartily?
Is easy to say hi rather than goodbye?
Is easy to control rather than showing emotions?
Is easy to curse than teach someone?
Is easy to ignore than knowing?
Is easy to hate rather than love?
Is easy to fake rather than living freely?

When we care for a person, we really expect something in return.
Attachment gives rise to expectations, but what if we are attached to a person with no expectations??
#expectations #attachment #mirakee #writersnetworkA state of attachment with no expectations is all I want.
Caring, but not expecting the same;
That they will care as much as I do.
Helping, as much I can help someone,
But not being sad, when that same someone,
Denies when you ask for help.
Sharing, your life with someone,
Maybe they will do the same,
Not expecting, just trying to build a bond.
Just doing things, for me, for others,
Coz I care, but I don't expect;
What I will get in return.
I just don't get disappointed,
When those same people ignores you.
But surely I get excited and enlightened,
When that someone stands by you.
Selfless, I want to become;
Trying my best.
Hoping, I will make a change,
Not only in me, but those surrounding me,
So that, we can grow better together.
I repeat,
A state of attachment with no expectations is all I want.

Those cuts still curse your name
Will you skin up my bruises, a compromise
If you'll ever come, promise?

#life #fuel
Here, fuel stations can be anything like books, library or someone's important advice.Car and fuel
Life is like a car, with fuel as knowledge.
The mind being the tank, with unlimited capacity.
Some sets out early, without filling enough fuel,
When the car stops along the way,
Curses the car, so is life,
Problem being the fuel, not the car.
Some fills the fuel, sets out,
Stops for the stations to get refilled,
For a smoother journey.
Knowing that learning is a never ending process.
Embrace your low fuel, accept it,
Coz this will only enable you,
To know which fuel stations you need to stop at.
