Back to time

That lane outside my paradise,
was chirpping with the sounds of innocence,
There was not a lonely hand,
Someone was there to make the sad ones laugh,
To keep company to those who were alone.
The doors were open and windows beamed with the light of security.
There were lies and pranks, but no harm caused,
All were friends, who had the time cheat and betray,
Always busy to finish what teacher had asked and ready to take over the world with  the bunch of friends.
I never had the phone because a shout was enough to summon the entire group out.
Who had known the sun will be the same but it would cause a tan when we grow up,
Who knew despite having the technology in hand,
It will take years to call the best friend.
It wasn't easy then, it isn't easy now
But the spirit to get across is faded and weak.

Reflections.

The run was not to get to the top, Run is to win in life. My gold might be coal for some, But best is it is mine. Happiness is hard to find, If you don’t know where to go in quest for it. Nothing is simple, Until you change the angle. Everything has a value, That is why you pay with life, childhood, youlth and age. The gains can be tabguble or intangible, Who cares, As long as you feel it was all worth it. Machines can think and so does the brain, Soul feels and apparently, heart does too. Just make sure they are in the right place. It is easy to miss the rising sun, But what if you live for the night sky magic. Value of more will never be enough until you know what less means. Change doesn’t happen, Change is you. You are one that will slow you down, You are the one that will make you lose. You need some light of your own to chase at the end of the tunnel that you have built. There us always a show and you pick your place. May not be enough for the show but you climb the stage and you...

unlearn to learn

When she smiles, my eyes sparkle,  As it shines upon me, it leaves behind the love. Cover of the dark is never far away,  Hounds me at all time and places. Never to part hand in hand,  I walk my joy and sorrow. Naive I was to think that happiness is all that matter, Only to let it shine, was my hope. And when the storm struck,  I was without an armour,  my anchor was weak, went adrif and learnt to glide,  Simple lessons learnt when faced with thunder and light. I was the richest when I was broke, Fearless, when there was nothing to lose. In the dark corner of nothingness,  I found my lost self. The treasure in disguise of trash. When the pride will be at pinnacle, Thy ego would crash, What doesn't righteously belong to you,  Will find it's place, At that moment of realisation, you will my friend say the grace.

Breakdown

The sound shatters the wall of silence, Dawn adds gleam to night.  Wondering how ironical it is,  Not knowing what is about to happen next and we plan our lives. Chaos that mind goes through, is not new and there is nothing to hide, standing by the door wondering about the deep sky,  just wait and stare far at the horizon so wide.  Isn't it all a mere illusion,  you and I? Mirage as we know, the dream for open eyes. I decieve and smile through, that is is the trait of conceit. As a human, this role I have taken upon me, Because I got gifted with a fragile machine called mind. I have broken it and learnt, Only to fulfill, the things I like. Less to care about those around,  Exploit what comes my way. Failed at time to sync,  What I mean and what I say. Deep is the construct, as I  delve and derive Ever seen the wreakage,  Worth a million when you find what lies at its heart. Valued when intact but treasured in fragments. Dead roots and cripled...
