a letter to THE ALMIGHTY_

Its so amazing that how all the cues suddenly fall in their rightful places...
how we suddenly get the courage and the patience to go a very long way...
how we just find a solution to a problem which has been bothering us for so so long...

it's so amazing, how YOU actually make us realize that yes, YOU are there for us - not for a second, not for a minute, not for that moment...
but for aaalllll the time to come...
what is required is, just to change the way we think...

its actually spectacular how YOU make us believe that YOU exist...
how at the very moment when we give up, loose all our hopes, YOU just pull us back in, show us the way and tell us that there is much more to come and we have a long long way to go...

I thank YOU GOD, honestly... and truly...
for being right there...
and if YOU can read my heart - which i know YOU can, what i just mean is actually much more and tonnes more than what it appears in here...
and despite whatever we say and whatever we do!!!
how much we fight with you or how many tantrums we throw at YOU...
we always cherish YOUR Presence around us...
and we would need YOU to be with us all our lives...
Please be there like Parents, like a Sibling, like a Friend, please be there with us in as many ways as you can except for a FOE...
We have always needed YOU, we need YOU now, and will need YOU in this life to come and after...
PLEASE BE THERE... always fending for us like your own cubs...
and please forgive us for the sins we have committed...
we might gain the experiences in this material world...
but will never be perfect...
We LOVE YOU

THANK YOU GOD...
THANK YOU!!!

The kid's choice...

why is it that we are not terrified on a well lit street at nights?
why is it that we are not scared in the alley where there is a heavy foot fall?
why is it that when we know that there is a person in the room just next to ours, we are not afraid of the dark?
why does the group of fishermen keep on making noises when in a jungle...?
so that they know that there is someone besides them and so that they are not afraid of the jungle...

why are we told stories about the dark jungles and the scary waters when we are kids???
its not for the reason that our grannies want to scare us to sleep... but its because of the fact that they want us to be aware of this world... and believe that she is always with us no matter what comes...
she wants to tell us to stay in a group, hunt in a group, and live in a group...

now its the kid's choice whether to go back and tell these stories to his friends and lighten the burden of being alone in the jungle and strengthen himself by bravely discussing the darkness or stay quiet and be alone facing the darkest of jungles and the scariest of waters...

I know, "he choses to talk about the stories..."
and shares his experiences of the dark forests and scary waters...

Change_ To what Extent?

Change is always good!!!
but to what extent?

from the age old times we have been changing, transforming, towards the betterment of our kind or at least we think so!!!

we know that the craving for a change is one thing that made the human species evolve into the things we are today...

but is this change worth it?
worth the love and time we had for each other???

in the rush of coping up with life...
we become so rude and selfish...

that in a relationship of love and respect...
we have time enough for respect and not for love!!!

a transition stage changes a human being to an extent that he might no be able recognize his own face in the past...

yes we all are transforming, but to become what?
yes we all are developing, but to transform into what?
why is it that a human wants to be more human than he could ever be and while trying to do this he becomes more and more inhumane...

yes we all need our space, but to what extent?
to the extent that even the slightest vibes in the body standing close to you, irritates you to the core of your soul...
and you are terrified of your space being occupied???

trying to be independent and self sufficient, trying to be mature we push and push and push... and row a great distance only to find ourselves in completely unknown waters... and we then come to realize that there are no traces left on the water which could lead us back to the place we started!!!

Waiting for the night to fall...

All day he would think of her,
and wait for the Night to Fall...

All day he would find words to say,
and wait for the Night to fall...

All day he would look at the watch,
and wait for the night to fall...

just because he thinks the night would bring along,
a few minutes that would allow him to share his 24 hours with her...
and would allow him to know about the 24 hours of her...
those few minutes which would bind the same 24 hours spent at different places in different ways by the two!!!

every day he would do the same...
and every night he would wait to listen to her voice...

every night he would call,
and every night his heart would pound as it did on his first date...

but for those nights when he would not listen to her, he would be dazzled...
he would fight within himself for not being able to talk to her...

because a day without her is a day without himself...
because now he would have to wait for another night to fall...

because now there would be another 48 hours to talk about...
because now there would be a night included to talk about...

many a times he would wait for the busy tone to change into the caller tune...
and many a times he would wait for the caller tune to change into her voice...

many a times he would call and wait for her to answer back,
and many a times he would know that his call will not be answered...

but yet again he would come and check his phone,
in the expectation that she might call!!!

Today he would have to wait for another night to fall...
another 48 hours...
and he would still holds his phone...
Still Expecting an unexpected call!!!

Will you wake up now???

Waking up, with a feeling of being alive when you know you have only a month or two left and something is killing you, weakening you from inside. You get out of your bed and start running towards the door... from what you don't know, from a sound... a sound of TIME, a sound from your own Wrist Watch "Tic, Tic...". You unstrap your watch and throw it away. but the sound's still haunting you,and you start running again...

But running away from something leads to a run towards something... and when you are running in a circle, The farther you run from a thing the closer you get to the same thing...

A feeling takes over you... A feeling of being pushed to a corner by someone you love, love with your blood, with the tiniest bit of bright light inside of you, whose source you could never find...

And you recognise that corner, you have been aquainted with it before. It smells of Tears, Broken Hearts, Nostalgia... its the corner from which you know you would not be able to escape this time...

Your heart beats and beats faster... tries to pump more, pants and misses a beat but beats... and runs... you are afraid and you move back, up the wall... and suddenly out of nowhere a strange person with Black robe and a Black Hat on his head appears... you are unable to make a sound... you are terrified... could do nothing but look at him... and you feel a Hand entering your chest, as clutches your heart and squeezes it, squeezes it till the last drop of blood seeps out... you feel the chill in your chest and you breathe out Fog out of your Mouth... your eyes starts to black out and a tear escapes the corner of your eye as you try to look up the face, look in the eyes of that face...

And you WAKE UP... wake up with a feeling of being alive... A guilt of being alive... and a tear escapes the corner of your eye... unable to speak, panting and sweating with a deep pain in your chest...

you look around and find no one... you are alone... you cry loud but make no sound... you advance your hand towards your phone to call someone but pull it back... you do not make that call...

you pray that the person you were about to call is fine and is sleeping tight... you pray that the person does not take much time and returns before its too late, before the time after you could never return... you pray that the person saves you... you desperately want that person to save you...

you cry, cry to death thinking "will you wake up now???"
