WE



Sitting in the porch..


Looking at each other


We gazed at the sky..


Then you gave me that look..


The look..


As if you seeing me through..


I got a bit nervous..


But I could see the spark in your eyes….


In your eyes..


I look at the stars which were


Incomparable to the ones


In your eyes..in your eyes..


The story has just begun


We have just got the pen and paper


To write ‘OUR’ lives


And its not about "YOU" and "ME"


…not  just about "YOU" and "ME."

CROSS THE BORDERS

cross the borders

he lives in pain

cross the borders

she lives in pain

companions of

he and she

are VAIN and PAIN

He and She couldn't become WE

as BORDERS between....

IF SMOKING IS INJURIOUS, IT IS FOR EVERYONE


I had taken this picture zooming my camera from my window seat in a train near Agra Cantt. station while travelling back from Kota. What was going through my mind at that point of time was the nonchalance of that unknown woman. She was lighting her bidi, sitting outside her home. But then what made me click the picture was the thing which upsets me; targetting the youth, the hypocritical behaviour of people who have a problem if the young are smoking and say 'its okay' when they smoke. Now this woman in the picture is not young and urban or a woman living independently on her own. So don't just target the young and independent for smoking.
If smoking is an issue , don't say its bad when a young woman or a young man smokes. One cannot say that 'these young women are into smoking because they are living alone, they have money to spend and noone to stop.' This may be the reason, but then what is the reason for the woman smoking in the picture?
Smoking is injurious for everyone's health, whether it is a man or a woman, a teenage or an old person and its better not to target any one segment or one particular gender.
This is my opinion which may be liked or disliked.

Silence

Up all night

I sat reading and humming

Lingering on the thought I should not be

musing.


Long silences I want to share

not the crap talk.

Again I expect what I should not be

thinking.


The outings and parties

I've got all over 'em

coz it gave nothing.


What I was expecting

I know I should not have expected.

A TESTIMONIAL PENNED BY NISHANT ARORA ..FOR ME :)

http://www.orkut.co.in/Main#Profile.aspx?uid=9717143607403941040
Its really difficult to write for sum1 you have been realy close to and then part away
for a long long time.

As a frnd, she is the best 1 can have. She's always dere whenever required [I remember
when u were getting late at night to go to bed coz u had to get up early in the morning but
u stayed online for sum more time on my request] and to be precise a rare find (honestly).
Beauty with the extraordinary brains,yes she is a very very intelligent gal, has always
remembered her friends although she moved away quite a long time ago..She can read minds..thats what i think...... n ofcourse she's a person wid whom anybdy can talk abt any damn thng..

Hey pal, njoy life to the fullest and remember:
Whenever there is a complain from sum1 widout ur fault it is simply out of jealousy nd jealousy always cums wen u outcast sum1, so just chill and remember that u have outwitted sum1 and moved ahead in life with success as ur companion...
MMMM..i love your scraps.

Always there for u whenever u need me.

A TESTIMONIAL I WROTE FOR NISHANT ARORA

Hey ppl so I am writing this for a classmate of mine years back with me in school. Well we got in touch after years here on Orkut so cheers to Orkut for that. Ok so now telling you about Nishant. Well I am being nostalgic now. I remembr this guy was a very quiet one, not mixing up with everyone, quite observant I must say. He was an introvert.
His eyes are very mysterious, Imust say this. You do not believe me..go check him out then. Lol. You can not make out what is going on in his mind. Well this is what i can reveal out of this guy when I bank on my memory.
Hey enjoy your life to the fullest..patani agla janam mile naa mile..jo karna hai kar n I wish success for you in life..so rock it man

ZARRE ZARRE MEIN USI KA NOOR HAI

Zarre zarre mein usi ka noor hai

Jhaank khun mein wo na tujhse door hai

Ishq hai usse to sabse ishq kar

Ishq hai usse to sabse ishq kar

Is abaadat ka yehi dastoor hai

Is mein us mein aur us mein hai wohi

Is mein us mein aur us mein hai wohi

Yaar mera har taraf bharpoor hai


This is a beautiful piece of poetry which I heard in the movie DELHI 6. The words have really touched me , inspired me and I personally find them thought - provoking. So felt like publishing it on my blog.


I hope my next post reaches here soon.
Till then cheers!

While

While driving in my car

I saw a kid waving at me

He asked for two penny

I didn't help him out

The guilt then stayed with me.


While walking down the road

I saw a confectionery

The kid came along

to have some sweet from me

I did gave him a sweet

He smiled and went away from me.


While sitting in open air

I saw the Moon look at me

It winked and smiled at me

I smiled at it as I daily do

and wondered how could I reach near you?

The lonely times spent

gazing at the Moon

enable me to become a good human being

I am able to see the kid's smile

and even my own smile

in the times spent all by me.

As thought is turned into a feeling

sorrow is turned into tears.

The tears drop down and loses its value..

with it the sorrow also vanishes.

Tears and smiles are visitors

they come and go

and do not stay for long.

THE POWER

Silence is omnipotent

and darkness too.

Question yourself in darkness and silence

and the answers will come to you.

Silence is omnipotent

and darkness too.

The answers are heard

in darkness and silence,

which are unheard and unanswered

in the brightness of day.

The unusual and unknown voice is attended

and heard by the self

because

silence is omnipotent

and

darkness too.
