They said a world walked with her.


Nobody knew who her eyes were looking for,
The girl with the song kept losing her way,
The more she walked, the greater the distances grew,
Her dreams were her destination and her destination those dreams,
Ways lead to more ways,
And no body knew why the girl with the song kept losing her way.

An old memory stops her and whispers into her ears,
'How long will you walk? How long will you struggle?
Lets sit in the shade of yesteryear's,
Lets talk about the moment when a bud blossomed,
Lets talk about the moment when a melody was ringing in your ears,'
An old memory stops her and whispers into her ears,
'How long will you burn your feet in the sun? How long will you struggle?'

A world perhaps walked with her.
But there was pain inside her. Memories out flowing.

Sometimes the picture fades away on its own.
while some learn to stay happy with the new colors,
others reminisce about the old glory.

The girl with the song realized her guilt,
She dreamt of the swallowing the moon,
Bringing the sky on the land,
She wanted flowers to grow on stones,
She tried finding fragrance in thorns,
Prayed hail to give her warmth,
Tried finding calmness in the raging fire,

Her dreams were but a mirage,
The past is but buried,
The old conversations have to be replaced with new,
The broken thread only lost the pearls,
The beautiful have only learned to illuminate memories on their eyelids.

Only a moment.

You.
I.
Yes, us.
And that moment.
The delicate yet pristine affinity.
Your arms around me, soft flow of words.
They flowed, some were heard, unheard, while some only felt, yes, more words.
We only sank inside each other even more devotedly, and the sanctity of our togetherness grew untarnished with each passing second.

I continued to hear the rain striking against the rooftops, pitter and patter.
It was indeed part of the jubilation then.
It had sung a song.
Of our togetherness.
The immaculate.
The perfect.
Us.

I have only ..


I am not a liar, I have only hidden many truths.
I am not scared from my past, it only bears too many scars.
I don't hate the rain, I only cannot control my tears then.
I haven't been in love, I have only lost him.
I haven't been a ditcher, I have only left a friend's hand.
I am not scared of screaming, I have only lost my voice.
I have not a committed a sin, only seen too many and kept mum.
I have never felt for him again, I have only missed his presence in my life.
I haven't abandoned vibrant colors, I have only taken up the ones that are unassuming.
I haven't separated from the crowd, I have only started being scared of addressing it.
I haven't given anyone hatred, I have only received abhorrence time and again.
I still stop to smell the flowers, I have only stopped devouring their beauty now.
I haven't been two faced, I have only deserted the ugly.
I didn't want to be a complicated, I have only lost the simplicity.
I don't believe in paradoxes, I have only fallen in love with them, again!

Sometimes!



Sometimes ..
You should settle with the complications,
Not mend the broken glass,
Not kick the tit bits of magic,
Learn to dance in a puddle.

Sometimes ..
You should give up the unnecessary malice,
Not fret over the lost memories,
Not kiss the roses of the past,
Learn to swim with the flow!

And yet.


The twist in his expression,
Her violent, miserable sobs,
His lost daughter,
Her husband to who she bids goodbye.
The untold, inexplicable human misery.
And yet the helplessness.

.

Bomb blasts in India. In Pakistan. In Thailand.
What are we coming to?
This goes for the victims.

I'm. . . . . .


I am the consistently burning flame of the candle
I am the calmness and tranquility of the sea
I am the power of Dusk and Dawn
I am the beauty in the feathers of a fawn.

I am not the farewell I bid to thee.
I am not the Angel in yesterday's reverie
I am not the cold and sour laugh you heard
I am not the dullness in a discouraging word

I am what you often hide from yourself
I am the road which leads you to your goal
I am the will which makes you stable
I am the strength both abled and disabled

There is more to me than what the eyes can see
There is less in me than what can be
You don't know me well; but still you do
Because I'm the power residing in you.



I'm your conscience.

The I in India


Where we worship Goddess Lakshmi, but innumerous Lakshmis are killed before they see light.
Where women adorn their hands with bangles of a thousand hues, but the colors of someone's soul are tortured till they lay as few.
Where we boast of ourselves on our rich culture, but millions are stripped off their love through the terror of the past and the future ;
Where birds are free to soar high and calculate the altitude of the sky; but someone is held back by chains till they can no more survive.
Where a Black President's election is glorified upon, but the thin line between love and hatred is ignored.
Where the chirping of birds and the sound of autumn leaves is music; but artists beyond conservative thinking are fugitives.
Where the treasures of the past are adorned "only" on walls; but a fighter's privileges are raped away.
Where even the moon is not the limit, but the same independance and freedom no one's face can any longer emit.
Is this the India dreamt of? An India led by self-centered prisoners who live on Money?

A small life to live and reflect upon;
Why not make the reflection crystal clear,
And somewhere where truly the 'mind is led without fear?'

Cessation

Along with a flight of wicked laughter
Stepped,in a state of utter pride
With an ugly bash of cruelty
The same old destroyer
A knife in one hand
He slit the soul
Immune she lay
Decoding
Life

****


Full stops to so many lives are put at these days.. A suicide or a murder..when people leave you,it may hurt forever.

This nonnet is just an attempt of explaining the despair of a girl whose been raped of her happiness,and has been left to understand the complications of life,and continue living even if she has to die for understanding the complications.. SO IS LIFE!

50 posts..and it seems like 05 days..


Yeeeeeeeeesh! The moment is finally here..and SO is my 50th post. Gosh..I feel so excited as if I'm having my marriage in a few days. Lol..there were dedications...there were poems..there were chocolates..there were pictures..and there was EVERYTHING ELSE..in short a complete CELEBRATION ! ..And so..before I show you the gifts people gave me..let me give away the RETURN gifts first. :D As some of you might be aware of..I'm a big coffee and book (novel) addict..so therefore..the party will be a dedication to each of you on the basis of my liking and such..
FiRsT :-
WILLIAM WORDSWORTH..Perhaps one of the most versatile and beautiful writer/poet who existed in the world.. This goes to the writing Marvels..
Cinderella -(her poems ought to give you complexes..she was one of my first readers as well..she's the sweet-dimpled-girl who..{as per my rating} has one of the finest writing skills..*kudos* to you,dear)
Solitaire - (This "psycho" is who I'm really fond of! ;) And someone really down-to-earth and her write ups about the reality are what can actually penetrate its way upto your heart. Keep up the work,my lady!)
Sameera (the "desi" girl..whose write ups have their own charm..one of the first people who I interacted with OUTSIDE blogger)
Riversoul
(SID!..ah..he's the one whose so "often" inspired by what i write..so many times checked., never learns :P..besides tht..he's one magic weaver of words)
Vinay
(The "Kreative Konjourer" {mind the KK thingie}..he's the FANTABULOUS writer whose got a totally different and effective style..and he'll always be there for your help)
Mayz (OOOH..this guy..I so hate him! He came here some time before me..but now we've got a lotta competition..lol. His short-and-sweet stuff is so infectious that it has some kind of magnet in it,which automatically attracts people to him!)
Jane
(the female who MAKES a HUGE difference..she was perhaps one of the first friend-cum-chweetheart who I got on blogger..the Diva..and the queen who will always and forever win people's hearts with her write ups based on REALITY)
Vinayak : (his scribblings or ramblings..please the eyes forever..the stories are totally the type you can relate to..and this hunk is the person whose story-writing skills are WOW :O) These people also get my favourite cup of coffee...which may be rare..but is perhaps the tastii-eeest ever! :D which CAFFÈ LATTE!


SeCoNd :
Second are the people who I think have one of the most down-to-earth attitudes..and have a simple way of writing out their feelings. They might not be pros who only get into writing poetry or stories,but what they write is totally based on a normal person's life. The book they get is perhaps one of those which I have always loved reading (and re-reading) Yeah..its "To Sir,with love' . Simple..yet effective is what their style is. And so these people are :-
Keshi-(When she gave her blog a title she must have had something in her mind..'cos her blog is truly a one which a VIVA might have had. Beautiful and sober {the fashion diva,she is..btw}..her style has always been the one which gets into a normal person's life)
D
ivkiran : (Okay..I ought not forget this beaautiful Punjabi kudi whose truly my CHWEEEETU!..its an experience in itself to read the stuff she writes..and maybe her simplicity is gonna take you up..and you gotta say WHOA!)
Chriz-(He might have been writing for double or triple the time as me {ref: Chronic Writer} but his funny will always be elegible to satisfy the laughter instilled in the 28038923 coming generations as well! KUDOS to his funny bone..{I so wish I had one as well})
Saim-(My online brother..whose also BETTER known as COMFORTABLY NUMB..his place ought to make you comfortable,but certainly not NUMB..lol. He's the big time 'Desi Girl' fan whose got a sober style of bringing himself up.
Daydreamer- (He might have named himself Daydreamer,but certainly his posts show him up as one of the most alive and borne-to-reality types..his posts will always leave you in a considerable state of thinking..where you'll be a bit lost about what's right and whats not..but still he's one adorable guy!)
Neha - (Better known as "d gypsy" or "d sinner"..she's one girl whose got an attitude of her own..and will amuse you to no extent with her photography skills..{trust me,her dps are most bootifull! :D}..she MS.CHANDOK who hardly updates her blog often,and has to be reminded by people like me everytime to do so..but anyway,she's a gem as well..MY GYPSY WOMAN..;) The coffee that I'm gonna share with these rocking people,is perhaps one of the most common..yet one of the most loved ones-->> CaffÈ Cappuchino




ThIrD :
These are the beautiful people who have a hell lotta passion and love inside them,and are writers and people who actually FEEL what they write..even if they're not the BIGGIES of blogville,they maintain a secret yet beloved corner of my heart..And so...these are the people who deserve another of my favourite book- Wuthering Heights. And just as the name might suggest..these guys have a hell lotta potential in them!

Trinaa :
(My "TIIIINUUUUU/TINNIIIEEE" baby..she's the chhote baal vaali super cute bachi (mind you she's 21) whose got a extra sweet thing in her..{jhoot bolne ki bhi hadd hoti hai na,tiinnu?}..she's got some really fabulous poems up her sleave..like the FIRST one on her newly-born blog-> Tangy Truths..ooh yes..I am a fan of this poem's last lines,Tinnu! Love you too..)
HP :
(The possessor of X and Y chromosomes..lol. The faaaaaab photo vaali didi..{photographer,yaar}..she's very new-types to Blogville and she's not the poetry person..but somehow her sense of humour or maybe just her posts manage to make me smile..keep it up,Phalguni Pathak's sister..lol :P)
Shatabdi :
(There are certain people who still ought not believing that her name is Shatabdi ..but Shatabdu is a really sweet gurlie..whose got an awwesome blog template {okay okay..I know I'm obsessed with them!} She still ought to discover the writer in her!..)
Farah :
(Better known as "ThinkTank"..she's the one whose got all kinds of mysterious and enigmatic stuff up her blog..try visiting her sometime..she can certainly set you into deep thoughts..and I personally feel..her display name is so appropriate..Farah Rules)
XH : (Short and sweet..simple and straightforward..thats totally how this person is..{yes,I am a major psycho here}..he's the bike racer,and a PRO photographer..trust me,some of his pictures really leave me captivated. Don't I love his blog template too! :D..stay the same,mate..)
Macadamia : (MAMA MIA..HERE I GO AGAIN..MY MY..HOW CAN I RESIST YOU!..the song says it all..muah)
Meghna :
The person who really got me started on Blogger..the one who is to be blamed about my straightforward and rude tongue {lol..no,not really}..she's sucha cutipie..and perhaps one of the "loved" people of Blogville..but people..WAKE UP..she's not that cute at all! :P..she's like my xerox copy..:D..I'm pulling her leg thats it..she's a cool person to be with..CHEERS)
Aneri :
(A beautiful person..and a caring indvidual as well..she's one person who you'll be proud to know..Thankyou,lady!)

The guys above get some coffee which is real rare..but well..its a personal fave..so be it! :D..
Its a cup of
: Expresso Romano
Bitter it is...yet...I'M LOVING IT!


FoUrTh :

This will go to all the people who did make a difference..Akshaya (the curly headed lass,whose got SOME talent)..Divya (boootifoool and insane..yet a lover of life),Shravana (a recently discovered friend..yet to explore) Goonj (the lass whose actually "high on life"..and is actually always on a "high"..lol..kiddin'..but ANYWAY!) Vikram (the rain boy..who can actually get rains of tears on your face if you get into the depth of some of his posts) Anwesa (maybe she updates her blog once in a decade..but what she comes up with is PURE GOLD!) Arunima-(newly come up here..yet a cuteheart <3),Disguise,Shrutilaya,Cess...and so many more..oh..I'm so damn perplexed!

All these people get a cup of : MOCHA!..yes..my beloved :D *okay okay..don't remind me that all of the coffeeees I gave up were my beloved-z*

RIVERSOUL :

Congrats in advance on ur 50th post, Ayu.
:)
I'm nearing there, but not quite there yet.

Here's my little contribution to the 50th mega block buster of a post.
:)

:)
Walking on the long shore line,
Watching you make magic fine,
Listening to your thoughtful piece
Thinking of the distant seas!

Laughing softly at your mimes,
Yearning most for your true chimes.
Living just the way prescribed,
Its a life that you described.

Love your works of passioned art,
Thus I feel herein my heart.
Words that delve deep from the start,
Seldom can one stay apart!

Let's rejoice! This day we pray,
Fame and fortune cross your way!
Lets enjoy! The dawn is bright,
The sun outshined by your true light!

CINDERELLA :
as for my dedication for Chemerical thoughts...the only thing I can think of is, its lot more than what it appears on the surface...wonder how many break that ice and get to dive in...

KESHI :
Crystal clear skies
Exceptionally her
A chemerical quest
Of a heart's desire
She spins magic
And delivers love
With silver kisses
Of a Crystal dove

JANE :

"a mass of curls,
a breath of fresh air,
her smile and wit shines bright amidst a bunch of teen-girls,
she truly is a gem so rare."


HEMANTH :



She started her blog as a seed

She writes her post without greed

her posts always makes everyone happy to read

In whole blogsville she gets to have a lead

she is always there whenever anyone is in need

so i tend to write her a meed

and congratulate on her 50th feed


KASHMEERA :

Hi Aayushi,
Here's my dedication for you...(and sorry about not commenting so often...I do read everything you put up thru the google reader...just haven't had time to come by to write comments :(!)

For this dear little girl...who is truly wise beyond her years. I wish more adults would think like she does, the world would be a much more peaceful place!


And a message for you Aayushi, (don't publish this if you don't like it...its more of a personal message for you) keep smiling always and don't think so much about death and all such sad things. The sad/grim things are part of life, I agree, but why not choose to always see the sun shining...even if it is only through some dark clouds, it is still shining!

CHRIZ :

Dear Aayushi

you have seen only 50% of the world that i have seen
Yes I am talking about numbers. Me being 26 and you being just 13
Man!But you girl amaze me each and every single day with your philosphical depth
I can't really imagine the kinda posts you would come up with when you turn twenty
The next generation are gonna talk about your blog
Mark my words! It is gonna happen and it will happen

Congratulations on reaching 50 posts. It has been a slow and steady approach and it has been good.
The number of people in your blog family in so very little time indeed shows your pulling power
May the good Lord bless you and shower his blessings for you to write and May you have a great blog future

Cheers and Prayers
Chriz

SACHI : (she truly put in a lot of effort in making this for me..enlarge and see)

Trinaa :

well i always knew ppl from my school rock but this gal goes way beyond 'normal rock', what she actually does is shake you by your very conscience...make you get up and take notice..of all that is right...and all that is wrong...
you will make it really big one day sweetie... so let me give u a hug now..before you go so high that i wont be able to reach you...mwaaahh me baby..tc :')--

Love,
Tinni

To Crystal.. Happy Fiftieth. =)
Something short and totally original for you! :D


DIVYA :
Curly.

It is such a nice word. I just like the way it sounds. All twirly and girly.


Curs are bouncy,
Curls are FUN,
Curls don't look good on everyone.
Just on a few,
Like on me and on you. ;)

PS: Guys with curls look cute too!!





A message :
