Which animal would you compare yourself to and why?
A bat
Who sees the world as a song
A snake
Who would like to get a new skin
A pig
Who stays fun, even when surrounded by filth
A dog
Who lives on faith and loyalty
An eagle
Who soars blissfully high above the chaos
A whale
Who can snort water jets just for fun
A porcupine
Who has the coolest spikes
A snail
Who’s never in a hurry
An octopus
Who could hug with eight hands
A human
Who is not an animal
50 thousand minds read
My words,
from my heart
Read on screens
small and wide
Resonating,
in that many hearts
…
At that moment
I dwelled
Warmly in their hearts
Happy
for all those eyes
That lingered
…
At that moment
I grew
Happy, for all those minds
that read and thought
…
I feel the hearts,
that beat like mine
I wrote my heart on the screen
Now it’s yours too
And thanks to each one of you
❤️❤️❤️
The two Xs,
I am happy they combined
I never complained
never questioned Y
❤️❤️❤️
What is your middle name? Does it carry any special meaning/significance?
My middle name
is a space
Between the first
and the last
It means not much
But that’s what we all need
What is the last thing you learned?
It really doesn’t matter
Nothing really does
Yet it hurts, it feels good
It’s just a song
on repeat mode
It sounds just like me
Not surprisingly
I am the instrument
Did I learn that?
No, not yet
I am learning though
Till then
I am loving this song
And I am singing
किसी ने की कोशिश
दो कदम चलने की
उस नुक्कड़ पर
फिर से मिलने की
कोई कदम
पहुँचे ही नहीं
…
किसी ने की कोशिश
लिखे ख़त को पड़ने की
पन्नो पे महके अल्फ़ाज़
समझने की
कुछ ख़त लिफ़ाफ़ों से
निकले ही नहीं
…
किसी ने की कोशिश
दबी आवाज़ों को सुनने की
अनकहे लफ़्ज़ों को समझने की
कुछ शोर,
कुछ कहते ही नहीं
…
किसी को सुनाई दिया
किसी से हुई मुलाक़ात
किसी को आया समझ
किसी की नियत ही नहीं
If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why?
Hate
The word
I could ban
…
But yet
The feeling
Would linger
…
I wish I could
Eliminate that
Maybe
someday
वो सबका आसरा
किसके काँधे, सर अपना वो रखे
रखता वो, सब दिल में छिपाये
जो हो रहा, ख़ामोश सब देखे
कहता है, बस मुस्कुरा दो
हर बात को हँसी में उड़ा दो
सबका प्यारा, सबका चहेता
ख़ुश रहते सब, उससे मिलके
है कुछ परेशानियाँ, किसकी नहीं हैं
कुछ रह गए अरमान, किसके पूरे हुए
पर ख़ुशदिल जीने का अंदाज़
कोई इनसे सीखे
सबसे नन्हा था, अब सबका आश्रय
हर व्यथा का समाधान, अब इनका परिचय
निःस्वार्थ भाव से जिना
कोई इनसे सीखे
कोशिश करता हूँ, पथ उनके चलूँ
उनसे उभरा हूँ, उनका अंश हूँ
पिता नहीं, दोस्त बन के रहना
ये अंदाज़, कोई इनसे सीखे
Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you.
My worn out shoes
holds many memories
Embedded and buried
Deep within its weary sole
Witness and participant
In those resolute and thoughtful steps
Of the many tough treks
And some easy strolls
Scrapping the ground
Raising the dust
To propel me forward
to play my rightful role
It lays tattered
Wounded and battered
With Splayed stitches
And some ghastly holes
Yet comfortable
In a neat fit
Moulding and Moulded
The feet it snuggly holds
I often carry it proudly
And seldom in shame
It’s my skin
A part of my very whole
It has come to rub on me
As I have rubbed the me on it
We have become each other
As together we grow old
My worn out shoes
Are like me, I gather
Holding memories happy and sad
Deep within my very soul
My Tales Within
