Half of me !

-

 

Some of me

Drizzles away..

Wherever I go

On people I meet and the things I change

 

Some of me

I let it fade..

In turned pages

Of the conflicts I faced to pave my way

 

Some of me

Withers away..

In the olden days

Of sorrow and despair

 

Some of me

Turns into autumn..

And falls away

Like horrors of my inner phantom

 

Half of me

Is left with me..

Which I proudly claim

And dissolve within

A day in the life of an everyday hero

It was Maha Shivaratri, the sacred night that commemorates the divine union of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. A day celebrated enthusiastically throughout the country when devotees, early in the morning, bathe and visit Shiva temples to serve Shiva’s favorites and obtain his blessings. It was a quite sunny and cheerful Sunday morning on 15th February 2026. The same essence of festivity had enveloped our campus. Enthusiastic devotees, all bathed and loaded with offerings for Shiva, were seen traversing the roads. The temples, too, were significantly livelier and much more surrounded than usual. A Sunday morning like this would otherwise have felt unbelievable. We too had gone to a nearby temple and offered our routine prayers. After which we returned home to briefly start preparing for another sacred sojourn. This was to an ancient temple, located inside a prohibited area, where entry of visitors is allowed only once a year on this venerated festival. Much like the previous year,...

The Undesignated Blame

The tools that I used For years, carving my effigy I see them now Still cutting flawlessly Yet, the details that I carved Piercing my skin hard They now question me back…   “Was it really what you desired? A perfection attained through scars Were the people actually pleased? By your dutiful gesture Or do they still demand More of your soul to be pierced.”   “Do you see it now? Or you are still blind Was it your conscience Or you acquired a few dictators? Well, may I ask… When and how did they become The proprietors when you were achieving When they could barely carry The weight of you crumbling"   "Do you see it now? Or do you still wish to act blind? Could you recall what you had envisioned? And how you’ve let things unwind You are your own slayer That uncompromising, unforgiving self-evaluator Who happily allowed herself to be ruled Give all of you and yet never be valued."   "Well, now you stand free To delve into theories you buried underneath What you felt and ...

The mistakes I make ~

  They keep telling me Expressing it too obviously About the mistakes I make And the steps I take That if never been told Or it never being mentioned, As an obligated move...   What seems to me As tiny harmless evaluations That could help carve myself into a better me. Are truly in actual … Blunders created Education wasted Rules disrespected Existential balance almost disrupted And that they are Irreparable damages, never to be repeated   The rules were presented As non-negotiable, non-modifiable, Unavoidable terms and conditions Of an unceasing bargain.   Which were to be followed With utmost care and sincerity And stated No queries, doubts or reasons Were to be inquired for or objected With the subjecting authorities.   The mistakes I make, Even if I were warned Way too in advance How predictable and catastrophic the consequences could be Perhaps I would choose to cause more More ...
