And For A Smile...

Smile ... For the world around needs it, feels it and transpires it to
the next level of life !

I believe, that a smile can change the course of our lives, change the
paths of distress and shift us from the depths of darkness and
solitude to extreme business and union with the world ...

Isn't this what each of us wants ... To be busy and content in our
lives, and bring about life in a more preluding and immaculate manner
...

Yes, but all we require is a shoulder to lean upon when in distress
and a pat on our shoulder when we have accomplished a feat ... Or to
be precise, a smiling face to soothe us in every circumstance ...

Somewhere within me is
A lost smile of mine that's..
Struggling to break open the
Prison of darkness and apathy...


I wait for the salvation that
Would set me free from this..
Unending desire to overcome
My own flaws, my own insecurity...


For a smile that has vanished
I search hither in the deepest caves of..
Solitude and loneliness and
Comfort myself with a hope of it's return...

Perplexed ...

and what else can one do ..
when even in the best of intentions .. 
the most heartfelt prayers .. 
are being questioned .. 

do we need to prove our prayers .. 
or is silence yet a strong answer ?

Inspiration Lost..

there was a time when i knew that gesture..
every smile that was, was somewhere for me.. 
i lived in every moment, each time that passed..
because i was at peace, i had what i dreamt of... 

and the going was smooth, i was flying high..
soared over the clouds, with a sweet voice within... 
i was blessed, blessed, because my prayers were true...
i believed in everything, for my life was happy ... 

and i am today, broken but don't know why...
i live in nothingness and sorrow is my friend...
for those who i trusted, have abandoned me eternally..
and those who trusted me, i've left them way back... 

it is my fault... it is.. 
to have worshiped emptiness..

The Anticipation ...

The angels had promised me life
My Lord had granted me peace
For the only wish that I had within
Broke apart losing the largest piece...

The time was as such so beautiful
Time when I was within the divinity
The clouds soared, the Sun shone
The darkness was nowhere in vicinity...

Life flowed like it was a stream
With every soul nearby me smiling
The heart was content in bliss
My dreams endless, anticipation piling...

For the words that were, were so clean
I knew not they cloaked nothing but emptiness
The words that left my ears wanting
Were silence and distress in togetherness...

And now as I stand with empty hands unto you
Waiting for something, a miracle to happen
And as I bend down my neck unto Him
I wait I wait for that what I know won't happen...

Mercy is all I anticipate from Him
For He knows what lies within everything
And He sees and foresees the times
He sure will have put forth ... something...

Life Without A Life...


It is said that the one who can wipe your tears away is the one who knows what they are worth.
Rightly so, it is a fact because someone who cares will never make you cry.

But, sometimes it happens that the one who cannot see you in pain becomes the cause for the eternal sting that pierces deep within. The reason…known only to this someone.
We wail in anguish and long for this someone to be a reason for our salvation, an anticipation that we tend to have when we know that this is only this person who could make the whole thing right again..

The most hurting thing in all this is when they don’t realise this and fail to remember what they mean to us. They forget that when they were in problems, they had us by their side...
They forget when they required us to deliver, we were there for them...
They forget that when they were hurt, we were there to comfort.
And they forget when we were a reason of their anger, we were the ones who pleaded and begged for forgiveness, something that we only do for someone who means everything to us...

And when they are about to leave, even if we are highly well versed, we find no word strong enough that could stop them and bring them back… and we silently see them go, with our eyes full of salt and our heart in absolute anticipation, that they would turn around for once and come back to us...

"Pain is inevitable, and joy is temporary."
It is a very old saying and the one who quoted this was not erroneous in the slightest. After all, joy lies in only a few things and pain can be had from everything, isn’t it?

But this soreness can be a blessing if we have somebody to share it with and it can become blight if we have nobody around while we face it.
Human nature explains that we are mutually dependent creatures who want to share everything with others, we cannot be too much mean to keep our joys to ourselves and we can never be too much angelic to digest our pain within ourselves.
Again, we come to this point that the pain could be reduced or it’s effect could be nullified if we share it with the ones who care, with the ones who want to listen to our grievances, and to those who can to be a reason of our smile.
Yes, we all desire for such people to exist in realism. And when we find this somebody, joy knows no bounds.
But alas, we have a problem…
When they say they want to be our strength, they lie… they only want us to become weak.
They become our prime weakness… something that we can hardly live without.
They become our daily dose to life and life devoid of them eventually means zilch… it means emptiness…

Ever seen a life without life?

Watch me …
