Random thoughts

The world is beautiful,
But my vision isn't.
The weather is good,
But my mood isn't.

Totally helpless,
I cry,I cry,I cry..........
If happiness were sold in a shop,
I would buy!

In this hustle & bustle,
Silently,I weep;
In my little world,
Happiness seldom creeps.

All I want is
Talk to someone who understands me,
My doubts & queries
Are as deep as sea.

All I urge is,
Travel To A place unknown,
Where mind is free
& thoughts all vibrant are born!

When despair looms into my view,
And dearest dreams seem blighted,
I write a poem,
My spirit once again is ignited!

What is prayer!


Is it measured words
That are memorized
Forcefully said & dramatized;
Offered with pomp
And arrogant pride?
Are words unmatched
To the feelings inside?

No,prayer is so often
Just words unspoken
Whispered,in tears
By a heart that is broken.

God is already deeply aware
Of the burdens we find
Too heavy to bear,
And all we need to do is
To seek him in prayer.

And without a word,
God will help us bear
Our trials & troubles,
Our sickness & sorrows
& show us the way to a brighter tomorrow

There's no need at all
For an impressive prayer,
For the minute we seek him,
He is always there!

When I get bored......

I really get bored sometimes,
So I write a poem,
Or sing a rhyme.

When I get bored,
I eat a lot,
Tune my guitar,
And play the chords.

I count the stars,
And look at the sky,
To all my friends,
I send a 'Hi'.

In my thoughts,
I mesmerise myself,
People dream of heaven,
I feel well in hell!

My Ship didn't sail......

Slow & steady wins the race,
All I know Cbse didn't give me grace.
My mood was shattered,
& dreams all failed.
In the rushing torrents,
My ship couldn't sail.

All that glitters is not gold,
Hardwork pays off,
Is what I was told.
I studied all night,
& spent my days,
To get good marks & obtain good grades!

The day of Result finally came,
But there was no sunshine after the rain.
Despite all this,
I shall work hard,
As my future can't be decided by any report card!

My Life

My life isn't like,
That of a rose.
In my life ,
People poke their nose.

They ask me my result,
Which I hesitate to tell.
On seeing my protest,
They don't hesitate to compel.

I live in a Country where,
Future's decided by the grades we obtain.
If that isn't enough,
The ranks of Neet & Jee Main.

Oh God!
Now I want some rest,
I am tired of appearing in exams,
& cracking the tests.

An Indian speaks about India!

The clock is ticking,
Somebody ,please stop.
With today's hustle & bustle,
I can't cope!

24 hours vanish like a moment,
GST is being introduced by the government.
With this tax,prices shall hike,
The common man would die,
But the rich shall continue to afford Nike. 

"Demonitization is a step towards progress"
Is what our Prime Minister told,
Well,corruption didn't end,
And the officials all sold.

Wash your hands
With Dettol soap,
India will one day progress,
This is all we can hope!
