There, and Now

Awake, finally I can see
This whole new world around me
Created and formed
Grown from the seed into tree
Picked and chosen
Separated from the dust and free
Left and forgotten
Time which was morose and acerbic
Preserved and embalmed
Bitter but the sweet memories
Magical and illusory
Detached with the foregone history
Protected and assembled
My only possession, if I can mention
This life, owed to ones I remember
Trembling but determined
I take a step and enter
Into the new world where I surrender

Quite an encouraging piece of work. Enthusiastic in its own sense, the best thing is how you specifically separate the past from present... removing the time, removing the unwanted... "there" and "now". And well, the inevitable.... usage of "illusory". ha ha ha. The way you've remembered only what you wanted to, and kept only what you thought of, makes it really attractive. Nice work over all.

Keep writing Shavii...

Weird Adventurous trip

I was in a bus with a ticket but the irony of having a ticket and the journey is somewhat weird and crazy. Let me make some sense out of what I am trying to tell u. Hope u understand!! When I started the journey, even though I had a place to sit in the bus.. n even though I was sitting but I was actually not sitting where I should have been sitting.. Let c if I can make u understand.. There is leg space between two seats in the bus..right.. Now someone kept his suitcase blocking the leg space and a lady was sitting next to my allotted seat. I came and put my bag on that suitcase and went to get water. When I came back (for which I had to climb through the drivers place as there was no place to even stand anywhere in the bus.. it was so over crowded). Somehow when I managed to reach the allotted seat of mine, some guy was sitting on that place. He claimed that seat to be his and I fought with him just to find that lady was occupying my place actually. But because there wasn't any ...

Life's Zugzwang

As she woke up to answer the phone on her bed Just wanted to hear your voice, he said Holding her breath as she spoke Hello to the person over the phone Thinking about the dream she had Two people under that lovely shed Loosing her thoughts she heard him say Reminding her of the place they once stayed And then he asked her how you are today Never before she felt her heart sway To the tune of words she was hearing Stuck in her thoughts with the man who was speaking And lost was she in her own world dreaming Alongside this only person she kept wishing Her dream world to turn into reality And walk with pride in that beautiful city City which is called as love Having a straight road without any curve Still talking with him she realized She was on the phone, she sighed Wishing for the right time she cried And kept down the phone on her side!

Valentines day and RAM SENA

This is India, and I wonder how many of you are liking this "INDIA"... They say it is a place where every other soul can find a peaceful place to breathe at least one free air but here what I see right now, picking up the red carpet is the cries of the hearts who love each other but are humiliated because they LOVE each other. Celebrating Valentines day is not acceptable to our community, I wonder how come they celebrate New years according to English's Calender. WHERE are the people of acclaimed RAM SENA lost when the whole wide world is celebrating New years eve, kissing the one they love the most. This wasn't a culture of India then how is this acceptable? The News on the pages of The Hindu tells us the new drama which is going to be dramatized on the streets of karnataka, they will not only protest and will carry mangal sutra and other things and get the kids married on valentines day. WHY? just because they both are knowing each other until they decide if they wa...
