Time to fly

The world it seems
has varied emotions

all sealed and packed in some magical box

well, no one cares about 'emotional s***'

they do try to show they care, nonetheless

I want to find a place
so secure
so warm
it would always make me feel so safe
away from my ever squabbling brother
from school, ever so demanding
from friends, whom i loved
from those whom i detest, and those i loved
away from people who i know
people who expect
those who demand
ask for responsibility
yes, i shun it all

People say i don't want to grow up
If only someone could understand what I am
...why i am, the way it all is for me
Someone who would want to know
what is this place I keep talking about
This fantasy, that world
Dream about the days
That wishful place
Where there are none of the 7 sins
nor is the Satanic 8
The 3 witches would just stay out of it
and the plural forces, its none of your business.

Its just getting scarier to be a part of this side of the world
the one, all pain -striken
not because its inevitable
but its begining to get, desirable
A 'desirable' pain?
Yes. that exists. Welcome to earth.
the planet with things called humans.
the place from which i want to run away.

that what begings

to end

the inevitable end

Or

the desirable one.

So, have i grown up.

Talking the sense you asked me to.

Now, can i go there.

My place, my dream world. that wishful place.

Let me go. Let me fly...

...its time.

OVERCOMING THE SO-CALLED 'WRITER'S BLOCK ' Writing is a measure of emotional intelligence. Why would i say that? Maybe because the first-time writing experience din't last long enough. It was moving. It grew with time. & then faded away in the memory of glory. Where does it come from? True to the heart, even rubbish sentences & word salads sound great when they're penned down by deep-seeded need to explore the long lost aspects of the self. Its been 2 years I havnt written anything meaningful. Did something stop me? No. Dint anything motivate me? Countless things did. Then what went wrong? Its the process. Words flew around in circles & giant tornadoes. Sentences kept forming as words settled into their positions. An idea was born. However, it was soul less. Becoming who you are, finding the one thing you really like, and then the disturbing thoughts of having to let it go. Save the heart. Save the soul. Save the words.

Shelf of unread books

'Where to mister?" she yelled at me from a distance, loud enough for everyone to notice.  "Hey, I'm not some kind of a thief, just looking around, grabbing a book to read. That's what they're meant for, right?" "Yea, if you pay for it!" "Of course, here." I paid for the stack of papers bound together in knots of tiny rounds, filled with words that were about to change my life. As I walked home, I was beaming with a sense of refreshment. I hadn't read a book in months, and calling myself an avid reader wasn't true anymore. It was a cold Saturday afternoon, and I was dreaming about a warm coffee in my balcony with my book. However, my footsteps had a different afternoon planned for me. "No, sir. Dalal Street is where I want to go. Could you help me?" I heard an unfamiliar accent from the corner of the street. "Seedha rasta hai" "What?" "It's straight from this turn, approximat...

Post-it

Waking up to the sounds of nature, She did all she could to avoid her start to the day. The routine wasn't hers to follow, so God help those who wanted to help her. With a bag full of munchies and a bouncy walk with the blaring music in her ears, she walked to her regular book store - one that was not ruined by the virtues of modern technologies. In the pile of her books, behind her glasses, she felt like a princess in her own right. Owning the world of words. Conquering all thoughts. Riding her horse of imagination. "This one is tricky",  she heard a voice which almost felt like it came from within. "I can't seem to decide what book I want read. They all either equally good, or well, equally bad." Slowly rising from the top rim of the book, her eyes tried to make sense of what her ears just caught. "Sir, what genre of books do you read?", asked the furious sales woman behind the counter. She was obviously not happy with this confused customer who...
