Some days are not every day

 Giggles 

Are a boat ride 

In the river of endless bliss

It gets you drunk

Without drinking 

Beauty enters the soul

Merging with the infinite sky

Love blossoms

Like the chirping of birds

On a beautiful evening sunset

The conversations grow

like an organic sapling

And the sleep comes

Like a log of wood 

It’s final

Stare 

At the world

Stare 

At yourself 

Let go 

Of the world

Let go

Of yourself

Do not believe in magic

Experience it in

love

Nature

Body

Food 

Music

Poetry

Science 

If you ever touch a heart positively with

Words

Actions

Intentions

Smile

If you ever celebrate your own

Eyes 

Voice

Ideas 

Needs 

Feelings

Then just remember 

YOU MADE IT 

Whispers of my heart

 O life ! 

I don’t want

Your sea of appreciation 

If only 

O life !

I don’t care

Your drama of disappointment 

Because of

O life!

Love me

Only if 

It transcends

Your petty conditions

O life !  O life ! 

I beg not thee of anything 

I beg not thee of anything 

As,The goddess of 

beauty

Joy 

And peace 

Has touched my heart 

And, made me dance 

Of Maya and Madira

It was a long journey 

Of seeking 

Not knowing what to seek

How to seek

Where to seek

Why to seek 

It was a long journey

Of discovery 

Sometimes, talking to a stranger 

Many times, talking to oneself

It was a long journey

Of understanding 

My childhood

Other’s childhood

It was a long journey

Of taking calculated risk

In life

At work

It was a long journey

Of foolish choices

For love

And life

It was a long journey 

Of writing 

Poems and stories

Journals and confessions 

It was a long journey 

Of knowing

That relationships is all I have 

Including the one with myself  

It’s just a call for dance

Where do I go 

O traveller

The heaven is in my garden

Where do I go

O foodie

I always eat a kings meal

I can come

Promise me a laughter

With my friends 

I can come

Promise me a dance

With my love 

I can come 

Promise me some peaceful time

With my parents

Don’t bring me gold that lasts eternity

A spontaneous laughter will do

There is an end in sight

Let’s March dancing towards it 

Reclaimed land

 A long time ago

I would find usual life

Very unusual 

And today

It strikes again 

To me 

As I was listening to music

Laying down 

I noticed a mosquito

Anticipating it to come 

For my blood 

It did come to me

And then flew back 

I was mesmerised 

Looking at it flying around 

in abandon 

A small flying creature 

Like those cute mini cooking videos

Of those mini humans 

Of those mini animals 

Why was it not coming for my blood ? 

The mosquito may not have been hungry

Once the meal is sorted 

What else exists other than to have fun and roam around

Enjoying the movement of one’s body

Complete abandon and chilling out in nature 

Unlike us 

Humans

Not so easy 

To simply have a meal 

And then dance around and chill

There is a constant fight in the heart and the mind 

It starts in the morning

And ends till one gets in bed at night

And may be during sleep too

Yet we understand 

That feeling 

We know that feeling 

We all have lived that feeling 

As a child 

As a carefree young man

And I wish 

All of you 

a lot of such precious

Carefree chill moments 

The century of the self

When I see myself

Skin

Eyes

Lips

Hands

When I see myself

As others saw me

Ugly

Weak

The trust of ignorance

The hopelessness of labels

The resentment of judgment 

The loss of misjudgment 

The strength of solitude

The beauty of truth

The comfort of harmony

The gift of balance

When I see myself

When I see others

As they see myself

It’s ok

Because

At the end 

Skin

Eyes

Lips

Hands

And it took a century 

For the self
