When will darkness depart?

The road, I chose was always lonely,

with no scope to feel homely

why am I stranded in the deep dark night?

God, I pleed to be proven right,

I bruised my knees, my soul and heart,

when will darkness depart?

I feel my shadow lost somewhere,

and mirror refuses reflection anywhere,

my earnings were thorns, to pierce me all along,

I couldn't bear, no matter I perceived to be strong,

recollecting the pleasant moments that went by,

I wish in the past, I could fly

Smiles that made my day,

dried up and have gone away,

the heart pains and screams with agony,

is this, what was written in destiny?

broken I decay, fall and die,

God has not made to live and cry

Befriending hope, I have to revive,

there will be a day when life will jive,

for no pain is bigger than my life,

happiness is yet to be my wife,

I will smile and shine with soul and heart,

and then forever the darkness will depart..

a poem on me, myself

19 years back i was born
not so adorn 
but as i grew i became silent
i donno why ppl called me innocent
some made fun nd made me feel
they uprooted skin nd they did peel
for then i realized it was a disgrace to live
then realized i had a lot to give
i gave smiles happiness and sorrows
thinking everyone returns what one borrows

then understood being true was not worth it
coz my emotions to others meant a piece of shit
i was merely turning myself into ash
i awakened to find panache
to gain it, to feel it, i started living
i got it by singing, recitation nd stage hosting
i tried to unite and bring several smiles
i wanted to file success into piles

but then came a storm
it was abnormally warm
things went wrong
i forgot i was strong
to reclaim myself to reform
to change every laid norm
i froze once in a group discussion
inside i felt some kinda combustion
i forgot the passion i had in my heart
people's fingers pointed as a dart

i got my confidence to learn and inculcate
and remembered there were 10000 things that could make me deviate
i promised to myself i shall stand high
to touch above my head was a beautiful sky
i relive now as an unextinguished fire
now i wont set my own funeral pyre..

In the memory of Grandma

I don’t know how you are?

I don’t know where you are?

All I know you are there in my fond memories

When I recheck my appearance while leaving for anywhere

When I eat incomplete food to scold me

When dad scolds me and I feel cranky to give me your swear that I won’t cry

When mom doesn’t listen to me

When I and my brother fight endlessly

When I am stressed, to say things will be alright

Whenever I am alone and don’t talk with anyone

When life is hard and perpetually testing my patience

When I do charity or help the needy

When I go to the temple or pray to God

When I am alone facing criticism

When I am undergoing pain

Whenever I am ill the touch of your hand

When I search you in the entire place every morning

When grandpa scolds and I am about to collapse

When I see women walk with a stick

When tears come to my eyes and dry away

When I lose something just because I forgot to keep it from where I took it

When I see myself left with no solution

You are there Mummyji close to me my heart and my soul

A Voice Against Regionalism

We belong to the same nation,

Eat from a common ration,

Then why do we regionalise and differentiate?

Late it is, change should be immediate!

Lack of acceptance and openness

to ourselves, we must confess,

we need to disclose the gates of our lives,

abandon our swords and knives

Hug our neighbors, acquaintances and friends

till when will we ignore social split ends?

Let's befriend, accept and re-unite

and end this evergoing futile fight!
