Trapped…

Looking for ways to escape I’m amazed, How did I get trapped in this maze? Can’t find the way out, I’m feeling dizzy and blacking out. While entering, I had thought I was brave, Now, I think I’ve dug my own grave. Feels like someone has snapped my tongue, I’m not even allowed to express my thoughts in words. Be this, do that, act in a certain way, Think thrice before even a word you say. Constant pressure of being like someone else, Always made aware that I didn’t belong here.

A Tale of the modern era…

What an era we live in, No one cares about belonging, we just fit in. Everyone wants you to be happy and alive, Dare you, open the emotional baggage, they’ll hide. Fancy shoes, dresses, and bags, From the outside, we are our best selves. From inside though, we are shattered glasses, Barely a touch can cause scratches. People pleasers and influencers, Seeking constant validation and followers. Plethora of choices, just swipe left or right, Everything and ‘’everyone” comes with a return policy defined.

Adulthood

Never ending journey… — I wanna grow up, I wanna be an adult, Was what I wished for like every kid of that cult. No more homework, no more exams, No more getting up at 7 to rush to the class. …

Memories

They last forever… Memories, such a beautiful treasure you hold, Open the box, you’ll find something precious than gold. Walk down that nostalgic lane, I’m sure you’ll find a smile on your face. No doubt, there are few which are bitter, But, hey, it’s the experience that matters. Days spent with family and your loved ones, Tale of that vacation- missing trains and meeting strangers. Journey and time when you made friends, Then lost your innocence and experienced your first heartbreak.

Lost Soul

In search of answers — Thinking, wondering, lost day and night, Asking the same question - what am I doing with my life? Should I’ve studied further or is it fine? Should I stay here or move around for a while? Have I achieved enough or anything? Am I successful, even a bit? Should I quit and follow my passion? Wait- for that, I’ll have to first find one. What’s new, the next big thing? Relaxing for a while, would that be a sin?

GAME…called Life

All good things come to an end, If that’s true, why do we even chase them? Bad days continue to grow and thrive, Hitting you hard, one after another strike. These dark clouds will pass, I believe, Though Sun’s heat is also not a relief. Covered in the sheets of responsibility, Problems of life take us in their captivity. Scream, shout, or try to escape, You are trapped in this game. Don’t be fooled when you cross one hurdle, There will be many more at the next level. No matter what you aim — a queen or a treasure, This game ends only with your departure.

Silence

It is so silent here, I can hear my heart beating. It’s a ghost, That pushes you into a spiral of thinking. Silence and I are trying to be friends, Though noise in my head keeps me awake, The journey from loneliness to solitude is a long one, I’ve reached midway but the thick fog makes me look for a u-turn. Scared, still moving ahead, Though not sure if I’ll ever reach the end

Lockdown diaries

Lonely yet peaceful moments Not anymore, I look at my keys, In my room, I find peace. There is this beautiful silence, for a change, I want this loneliness. It’s like meditation trance, You can hear the breath in and out. I find calm in just looking at fan, Imagining myself on the beach getting tanned. I enjoy that cup of tea with myself, Absorbing the taste, and cardamom fragrance. Ideas come rushing into this brain, They spill out here like this word train. It’s a state of bliss, I’m alone but there is no one I miss.

Pretending…

To be OK — Look how pretty she is, such a Happy face, No one notices the sadness in that gaze. I’m OK, she says with such calm, Even though inside, there is a tsunami going on. She has learned to put up a fake smile, To please everyone, she would go the extra mile. She tried to open her heart again, All she got was — don’t complain. She has given up saying how she feels, Only to herself, this mask she peels. With all these thoughts in mind and questions, She hides her tears in the cushions. She seeks that friend- that one, Who would listen to her and not judge. Holding her hand, I say I care, I’m there and I’ll stay.
