Move on from what holds you on Ordeal that makes you stall Stops time and rewinds it Makes you relive it Move on Away from it all Plays games with your mind Gives examples of a similar kind Tells you its time for you to find Time to get even Move on from these thoughts Housing these rejections Convictions coated with poison Convinced about the reasons To teach people a lesson Move on at breakneck speed Before contemplating a single deed Drinking poison hoping The other man will die Or hoping the opposition takes the poison Does not change a thing For you Unless their death gives you a sense of conquest Move on as far as you can Harm and insults Never made anybody Feel better about somebody There fall not your rise Move on from this process Puts a complete stop to progress A new day every day Judgements delivered yesterday Forgiven and forgotten today Move on ahead taking it dat by day
No reverse gear No rear view mirror No backup recorded Reusable thought process prohibited
Move on from the past Move on from the thoughts Move on from the feelings Move on till you exist no more
A burden called the Past A fear called the future One we know everything about Another we know nothing about Knowledge and Ignorance Are the greatest assets Mortgaging them in return for burden Is like not the brightest light in the box Going in a wild goose chase Looking for a grindstone to blossom into a rose Engaged in Sisyphean task of counting to infinity twice
The Evening shade casts it's gray Shadows back in their place Appearing and disappearing Are they a part of me Imitating my every act On purpose do not react Imitation is the best form of flattery Is my shadow flattering me? Irony of darkness Birthed itself from light Rise or Set The Sun regrets
Afraid of his shadow Tells a tale of wow Light nearby creating this illusion A mere scientific evidence Illusion of darkness shines bright Bright lights of the Sun seems Lurid
Hair style till it adds Beauty to oneself Looking good in his own eye trying to look better in the mirror At the saloon during a haircut The same hair treated worse than dust Treated with shampoo conditioner and gel Now brushed away from the body the second it falls in us An analogy to life none greater than the hair If you are where you are supposed to be you get the respect even without asking The second there is no need for use Even your presence will be looked down upon and ignored forever A fall from a position Help find the true friend
Living trying to satisfy Other people's needs Is a life well spent Weaker than us In all walks of life Only if God had intended otherwise Priority to their well being Over our own safekeeping Thoughts and Feelings Empathetic towards the needs Compassion sows the seeds Grateful that the opportunity To help the needy Was given to us by the Almighty Your number is up Staring at death's alley That you held someone's hand God is holding your other hand
The safe deposit locker That you take with you As baggage to be calculated The only currency that has value
The good that you Did to others Selfless service to mankind Is the only thing gauged Granting glory and immortality
Happiness does not Have an address Sorrow searches for one Finds many rather easily Unfortunately there's place for only one Invited to stay without rent Pay interest by handing over peace Vacating to give it on a lease Sorrow looms larger Than the problem that created it Makes you focus on it Rather than solving the issue that birthed it The more the attention it seeks and gets The stronger it becomes Happiness and Satisfaction Gone long and far No more visible to the heart And seems impossible to attain in thought
Patriotic to his Country Loyalty to his Empire Heroic in his Battles Gallant in his Warfare Eloquent in his Speech Astute as a Politician What more quality Can a man be endowed with An epitome of character A pinnacle of Manhood No mother had a better son Envied by the Sun and the Moon When the heart interferes Wrong way the ship steers Logic looses its fears Eyes cry shedding tears For the woman who in the heart endures With beauty ensures Away from everything she's lured The power of love Can launch a 1000 ships Can sink them too Born with qualities Others would die for Loosing all of them To die for lust Heart wanting what it always wanted Everything steps aside Knowing it is fighting a loosing battle Aware that he too will loose the battle Carved by poets and play wrights gaining immortality Even Shakespeare inscribed The respect he gave Genre not clear Is it what to be What not to be Whatever you are to be Whatever you are you need not be Two lives you can lead One an example of Glory Another for ignominy A lesson in Love Where sacrifice is worth even loosing immortality Or is it the love for which all the glory was left behind Left time behind too Too last many a lifetime Perspective of the life Of Marc Anthony Can teach one very simply The truth about life Living it Living it Dying for it
I exist therefore I am I am therefore I exist I ceases to exist therefore I am I am ceases therefore i ceases I exist therefore i ceases I ceases therefore i alone exist I exist and i cease I am therefore i am I do not exist I do not cease I am not therefore I do not
He lives your sorrows and Joys Like it were it his own He is the light of your life And the light to your darkness He's the might to your meekness Shadow to your body Echo to your mind He inspires you to be what You want to express yourself to be He's the harmonica to your voice The side car to your bike Interchange positions as you like With you for life
Meek and Weak Fearful of everything That I see Afraid of People Events and even Ghosts Never lived my life Frightening self carried myself Deep at the core Stuck in a dead end Nowhere to turn Met my saviour in Jeet Kune do The philosophy founded by Bruce Lee
The movies that he acted Only more and more reenforced That the God of Anti Bullying Was standing on the silver screen Right before my eyes His Fighting Skills His Philosophies and his Quotes Made living of increased quality Quantum of fear doubled down i guess Faced eye to eye Ready to die
Down and out Ready to play relay With cowardice in my thought and heart Come to terms with mediocrity Pushed around daily
Drowning in this Self pity the worst Saved me Bruce Lee His Teachings now lead The way i see life Upside down he did Made my life a lot smoother
Life's blur was becoming clearer Therapeutic and Zen like Very few remanants of my former self All i surrender to the great Saviour Bruce Lee
I don't remember what I want to say I say whatever I I don't know I am saying I keep asking the he question who am i And the people around me don't seem to remember me because they are blank to me. I used to forget where I kept my keys I now don't know where keys are used Objects don't engage They are irrelevant tu o my existence Who were we and what are we doing What are those two hands for ? Why do people get angry with me if I don't know them ! What is death and to whom does it come will i know then? Does life have a meaning ? Or death have one ? Only those who recognise life need to worry death .
A progression that causes regression Step by step memory cells erosion Spiralling down mental condition Billions of dollars not enough to find the solution
Protein forming deposits Brain cells cemented First steps of the stages chartered 7 more to go to complete what it started
Memory loss a signal Becoming a prisoner Attention span shortened Learning process permanently halted
Degeneration of the human Body mind and soul With no recourse A life sentence of dependence for no fault of theirs
I'll treated once affected Brain can't process the full effect Their state taken to advantage Cursed and beaten knowing it is safe
Immediate Death better bet Than to suffer till death Wrong disease at the wrong time in the wrong hands Crucifixion seems like heaven
Lying alone in a room Bed and dress wer with ***** Food and water given in ration All depends on the mood swings of the dependant person
Resplendent and divine One day of the month Absent and Darkness A fortnight later Complete to Empty Transition monthly Comes with darkness Shines with the stars Accessible to mankind Yet seems so far Brings with it Beauty and glory Known for the dark sides of many stories Brings with it an eerie silence Its reflection on the water fable Zen buddist favorite example Beauty it is Reflecting the Sun Duty on borrowed glory A character in many a story A companion for loneliness Meditative in its travel Watch it and it unravels Reflecting your heart Cleansing your soul Solitudinarian s best friend Greeted by empty streets and People under the sheets Provides the best ambience Mother nature's instructions Romance and Dinner Under the moonlight A magic sight it provides The light it provides in Darkness Is the sanity and hope it provides mankind Moon leads the way for the heart As the Sun does to thoughts Plays supporting role To the prevalent tenesplendorbrosity Never prides on its Leaves it to its audience to be the racounter
Is it as it was, What it was ? Was, what it was? It is ,what it is It is not ,what it was. Why is not , Is and was , Was and is? Is is was? Was is is? Was is was? Is is is? Is not was? Was not is? Was is, is was! Is was ,was is!
A personal experience Did get my deliverance Not until after going the distance With abuse of substance
Never had a drink Till i was 20 None offered it to me Peer pressure no logic
Wanted to encounter To know what it feels like An inebriated state of condition Where you loose your inhibitions
Not to feel left out In the midst of those who passed out Occurrences in the high far out Demons of addiction taking steps out
Unaware of my character Addiction or Abstinence its main feature Galloped on the track of dependence To a future awaiting to be spent in repentance
Craving for more and more Liquor bottles more at my door Than at the store Nothing else i remember
From the bottles straight up Tolerance levels made even alcoholics sit up One more quicker than the next Even the bottles screamed give it a rest
Addiction in an equation Equalling to self esteem Increase the valency Equares to nullity
House of warmth Turns into hell Family at a dead end Peace showing its stop sign
Rages and Rants daily occurence Violence and defiance same direction Tolerance grievance at the other end Hindrance to prudence leading to indifference
Relationships gone south Friendship loosing its clout Engaged with liquor in a boxing bout Getting tipsy every round you loose
Respect relationship friendship Not even in the viscinity Alone Addicted and miserable No one left in the false fantasy
Reputation at home Neighbourhood and work Now a laughing stock to preach Sympathetic towards the other members No fault of theirs humiliate
Begging and stealing No more wrong Left guilt by the wayside When the bottles lay bedside
Years gone by Not aware of days that went by Living in a timeless state Till time ends living on the due date
Extinct to family Extinct to friends Extinct to colleagues Extinct to self
No bigger crime Family in the grind For you to find Ways to the deep end
Take the first sip Keys to hell unlocking its gates Living in hell already the state Hell learns a lesson by observing your fate
The painter imagination Would make mother nature jealous The joy that inhibits her heart Expresses itself as art Nature will not steal her glory By making this a reality
A Zen monk Popular in his town Sits with his disciples Gives talks and was renown
A student of another master Came to visit the teacher Was not impressed with the manner Convinced he knew no further
Confronted the teacher And told him about the Greatness of his master Recounting his powers He gave many examples
My master can stand On one side of the banks Look at some one standing Across the river in the other bank Pull out a leaf from a tree And with just his fingers Draw the person on the leaf Would be so accurate You can't find any mistake
What such powers Do you possess Why do so many People converge in your presence
The teacher answered I have no such skill I know only two things in life When I'm hungry i eat When I'm thirsty i drink
An ardent follower Of Bruce Lee the philosopher Fan of his movies Watched them repeatedly Movies are not classics But a Religon His life a lesson To be learnt in the present Be Water he said famously Follow the thought deeply Jeet Kune do his philosophy Use it to navigate life successfully Multi talented Polymath Try and emulate as much as you can Martial Artist Philosopher Actor Writer Director Producer Poet Teacher So many facets and more God of Anti Bullying A saviour of the bullied Weaker in any form He is the go to form Internalise and implement His teachings and his life Yours you will not regret An answer for every question he has Eternally popular generations later Kids by the time they reach The age if 8 Have heard of his name Came for a purpose Lived by example Taught by gaining wisdom from his own seeking Left an everlasting impact Will exist till the universe ceases A realised soul Anyone who knows all this Is a BRUCELEEIST
Destiny took a turn When i was four Had vision problems Could not see the black board
Forced to wear glasses Bearing very high power In the early seventies Not very sophisticated
Thick and heavy Layered and awkward Wearing one to see One in my bag for emergency
Became a target in school For teachers and students alike A victim to bully No other target was easy
Called names like 4 eyes They would take away my glasses Not return it for houses Almost blinded and struck by fear
The teachers were no less Would catch their eye With my conspicuous frame A lane target my vision to blame
Savage in their treatment Would get hit on my knuckles As a form of punishment Steel scale used as a weapon
Like a disease it spread Neighbourhood was no less Jokes would be made Everyday put to shame
The frames weight Would bring it down Held by my nose bridge I'd push it back to eye level
Did not realise It looked silly and funny Branded as a nut Parents were summoned to school to call me a lunatic
The name stuck Followed me forever Playing Table Tennis my passion One more place to be the victim
Same story different place Match announced but never let me play Held on to my glasses and racquet and made me beg No respite for no fault of mine
Teachers Students Neighbours Principal Vice Principal and others No place to hide Wherever i went always bore the brunt
Confidence took a beating Started compulsive lying Called out on every lie Liar tag attached to the cuckoo already there
Abused made fun of beaten and targeted Weakest link in any chain was guaranteed Became the image that was projected Helpless in solitary i used to cry
Tried to become likeable Instead of being sensible People pleasing would do the  miracle Wrongly assumed the bigger became the battles
Trampled upon for no reason Father's pet a new reason Life at home was catching up Only place left was filling up
Wanted to study in America Not fit for decided my sister in law She wanted to go before i had no idea My I 20 was sent back saying no such person existed
Life at a dead end Competition with me for no reason Pushed life to the brink Wanted me to fully sink
Father's favourite son Went unpunished for every sin The impression in people's thoughts How wrong they were by far
First time for my father Didn't know how to handle Was as boxed in a corner as i was I was getting the punches he was bleeding in his heart
Bully the word that sums it all Bullied was all my life what i was Me for being myself that is all What was my fault ?
A victim of bullying Shooed away by many human beings All walks of life treated like a worm Finally turned to Bruce Lee the God of Anti Bullying
The white chalk In the black board Reducing in size Spent its life parting knowledge
Akin to a candle Burning itself to give light At the hands of a teacher Imparts knowledge sacrificing itself
The purpose it is used Does not stay forever Erased by an eraser Invented to prevent its staying power
Helps the teacher Helps the student Helps build education Helps the institution
Unfairly compared to cheese A malpractice by the traders Centuries ago to increase quantity Put in bad light for no fault of it
Unfairly compared to cheese A malpractice by the traders Centuries ago to increase quantity Put in bad light for no fault of it
Serves its purpose Doesn't discriminate others Its usefulness and its presence Used like a ladder only to be not missed later
To be emulated Sacrificed and not commonerated Birthplace of erudition Impartial the world is an learned place
Rivers Oceans the Sun and The stars Used as examples of how selfless you are Alphabets already written for the next generation Add the Chalk to your gratitude list
Trying to become A big star In the movies Not everyone is lucky Aspiring actors many Tried and failed plenty Trying to earn a penny
No other choice Still hear their inner voice Seen ordinary guys turn into celebrities Green room their only known territory End up as movie extras Known as background artist Tough life waiting to be called Every extra thinks he's the next superstar Irony in the fact Evidence in their favour
Their dreams destroyed Settled into their new avataar Part of show biz Last choice in their list
Part of crowd scenes Indistinguishable face no one noticed A fellow extra the neighbour befriended Who' also was rejected

Their dreams destroyed Settled into their new avataar Part of show biz Last choice in their list
Part of crowd scenes Indistinguishable face no one noticed A fellow extra the neighbour befriended Who' also was rejected
Weather and conditions Not taken into consideration In costume for entire call sheet No choice but to make peace
Part of the scenery They add the authenticity Movie making efforts collaborative They add to the narrative
No reason to be treated badly Dreams did not come true Written in their destiny Statistically impossible must have chosen carefully
A profession with dignity Uncredited or bit parts Terms as these don't to justice Things didn't work out as promised
Imagine a movie Done away with them fully Watching a movie makes you realise That you are watching a movie
No greater blunder Than to make the audience aware To draw them into the story Rests on the burden these extras carry
In front of the camera Everyone is an actor Behind the camera Everyone is a crew member
Know their value Added to keep it true Name not in the titles If not for them there is no Title
Why didn't Gene Hackman Do a movie with Jack Nicholson Swirling in a loop I see their biographies lying around Writing a Screenplay With both staring May not materialize I don't care Atleast there will be one Only me in the audience Made the film Without the actors Watching it alone with the actors
Equal to all Partial to none Right in the middle Before decision done Emotion has no role Justice not a dole It is the right of the wronged Where a wrong is set right By balancing the scale Not tilting sideways All things equal None or all To all concerned Nothing done special Meritocracy the defining authority Moral code of conduct ensures Equality Deserving get their due Denied by the lack of it Scales of justice Scales not in balance Weighing the merits against each other Sword to embody power Snake at her feet Depicting cruelty Blindfolded to signify She is wise Final verdict delivered Justice .oves forward May the right Man win Sells only in front of her
This injury not Worth your worry None had the power To take your beauty away On the outside and inside You shine like a star filled sky You radiate charm Lucky is the injury Can borrow your elegance Large hearted to share it Makes you more attractive Made fun of by others Does not matter Throwing stones at the Sun Doesn't reduce its radiance Others making fun of your Shows their lacking in confidence Do not waste thoughts On people without a heart Do not worry Be happy You are the definition of beauty Unable to handle it They seek humor in your agony Even in agony none is a patch To lessen your appeal Go to class And give it Class
A year gone by Nothing ever the same Not a day goes by When your memory not recalled by Legends leave a vacuum Never can be filled Routine helps keep sanity Your presence gave vanity Pursuing ones goals You are the playbook Realising them wish You lived longer to tell Table tennis and life not the same Your absence felt every second Your presence in my feelings And guiding my thoughts Makes living a lot easy Having seen you play for 7 years Practice or match First row seats to witness God greatest gift Thank you for everything Greatest player to play the game If Kamlesh Mehta calls you King What more praise is there to sing Your presence i feel Anywhere i be I pay my respects to you Everyday on the table Before playing the first ball Thank you for everything Called me hour brother many times Today my life is great Not written in my fate Your wishes have brought me here You would have been most happy to hear My new job which i hold dear Good souls helping me out Giving opportunities which makes me full Will do justice every ball played Isn't that what you thought me for a decade Pray for your happiness Wherever you are May you find peace Like you found fame
Last day of life Lived in this universe Hopefully by then I'd have regrets none Grateful for the experiences Made me understand the nuances That's what living is about Took me long enough to figure it out I will be nervous for sure Knowing that death is near Examples of bravery That is read dearly I'd replay it my head Trying to wean of my cowardice The philosophy id internalised I would try to bring it alive Great thinkers views of death Hopefully would give my mind some peace and quiet Not knowing what awaits The other side of life Would probably convince myself Better there than the travails of life Another day to pass Will certainly not be my outlook I'd rather not know that end is near Only increases the bottled up fear Accommodative to my loved ones I'd be both gone and missing them The day would pass by quickly I'll make it longer with my memory Life is a dream I'm not the body or the mind It treats everyone the same It's the end to a new beginning All these ideologies I have read in detail Can I practice this And see if it entails what it promises to entail The only thing Id be excited about The answer I've been seeking I'm now near its whereabouts Matter of time Before i know the answers To the myth of reality Which is going to present itself in all its glory The last thing i would want Comes as a shock Time to leave as told I would be praying for a miracle to unfold
Unable to forget Never left my thoughts In the first place Concentrated thought focussing on you Or even while meandering Wanders around you Easiest solution is to tell you I tell myself everytime The next time is the last time I going to return with my feelings Heart heavy and hurting Standing before you My heart racing Memory the last thing That is working Want to make An impression on you Every second wasted Your presence erases my thought process When will I get my act together Or die a loner Not a crime to like a woman Am i feeling guilty Do i feel unworthy Or am i afraid of rejection Veil of shyness To protect myself From knowing your true emotion Guessing all the time Not knowing what you are thinking Hoping for a miracle If it were to happen It would have already happened It hasnt flown smoothly Which if something you have to get Always does The more the lack of clarity The longer it takes to reach a finality Wouldn't even want to let myself wander in those woods Prayer is for cowards In my case only ratifies it God not your messenger Glowing in all directions Your heart reflecting every second Let me leave it to destiny If it is to be so be it If it is not to be Add one more Atheist Easiest to blame God for the same For he decides fate Of he is fate
No past or future How does one not have a past If he treats everything as present It ceases every moment As present turns its hide from real Which it is To the unreal Which it becomes Under a another name Such a person has conquered time Or realised that time is only a concept of time Gone by no longer existing Yet to come not existing Has an option to play Need not come Such a person is aware And it does not matter Something that does not exist Cannot matter Passed by or Awaited Non existing reality The acts done have a history Not to be confused with the Actors repository Can't write a review for his earlier roles When he's performing one now Role exists player doesn't Roles written player undecided Role now performing Now no more As quick as that Aware of this One leaves no trace Of his time spent Here on this universe We call birth and death Living playing a brief Interlude To connect the two
Yesterday night Two friends Alone together Got into their car Pedaled it afar To the graveyard For a lively party Their dead friends birthday They reached an hour late Bang on time Stayed sober by drinking Woke up late as eyes didn't close a wink The climb down was tough As they were starving on a full stomac The deafening silence enroute Even though it was a short distance Made a rightful mistake Of turning the wrong side
Going straight in reverse The found their way Was the rightful opposite way Which they found immediately in a day
Bumped into a truck On an empty highway Reached their homes Which was broken to By thieves who took Away their valuables Spent the next 6 hours Searching for their keys They needed to enter
Burden and sorrow Are the guards to your gate Knocking on it Going to enter anyway Denying permission is Living in lala land Let it come Occupy some Space in the mind Don't waste your time Uninvited guests they are Dwelling on them Gives the more strength Delays their departure Use the strength and time Used to dwell upon On the issue That granted them Visa to enter Your own end Bear it with strength Pray to god To give you the heart Think of the millions Behind you in the line Get happiness out of that Find peace till the end of time
Woke up today Thank God for that Had a good night's sleep Indebted for allowing that Had my cup of coffee More than contended
A roof over my head How many can claim that Eternally grateful for the kindness Food on the table Whenever the stomach requested Provided in full Obliged to you Whatever has happened Is the best outcome you have granted Relationships in symphony Synchrony you help validate Deeply appreciative for ceding Contended fulfilled clear That's my life today Humbled by the generosity Nothing to ask Everything given without any pre condition There for me to experience Live life the only expectation The mind in between Sows seeds of questions Help me understand That a gift is to be celebrated And shared Not taken with an attitude of i don't care Noticed that the universe Had performed its functions well As the world outside Was bustling with activity Overwhelmed in the least A big thank you For giving me the life With the best help to tend
A life to lead only awareness to To be Thank you Thank you Thank you
Exertion to create A creation Either by talent or repetition Skill and imagination Overlaying in tandem For profession or recreation Has a destiny written Before or after I'm in no position To answer the question If the art carries the artist s fortune Or doom as determined The art is not at fault Just as we are born Knowing only life It searches to display Pride not in itself But its master Inspite of the travails Using his Seeds of imagination Birthed on canvas Record or film Even the creator By virtue of his power Could write its kismet But needed its artisan To use his wizardry Who's life too he can sequence But lacked his creative essence Creating a competition To his occupation Willing to sacrifice it He lacks the nuance Of the artistic brilliance World and his creation Need in abundance Foregoing his monopoly His imagination after all lacked beauty A novice who needed The virtuoso s genius To make this world a better place
High up there Out of sight Out of reach How did they get there Want to analyse threadbare No magic trick Or Sleight of hand Still don't get the big picture Ask the question where Did they start to dare To go out there Wearing their dreams on their sleeve Not afraid to loose Starting all over again Time and again Enjoying the day Even if it didn't go their way Ready for another day Not to repeat the same mistake Respected the game Thought to them By the coach Who's every word Was taken as wisdom Never in doubt Of the coach' s clout To make them win If not today One day later Respect for opponent His skill and effort Every drop of his sweat A piece of advice His coach no less Does the same Finds your weakness How you could be beaten What other lesson Can be taught Than to have a list To have you at a loss Teaching you to win Teaching you to loose Combine both to groove A step up the ladder Right on time Not too soon Not too late Now in sight How the winner Wrote his fate Time to erase To keep a clean slate Unlearn the learnt Cup empty to be filled Process paves the way Endure the pain Don't count the hours You spend to play Start counting after Your breath you are no more sure Is two way
We are told Of a god Never seen him at all Those who passed it on Were put through the same draw We pray and worship Part of our daily life A fallback option Always taken in trouble Or in gratitude We never miss him Plays out like that Put our lives in his hands That's how important he is Has never turned up Faith answers the logic that's absent Never seen never will Never present in our present Home sick not unique God sick a word needed To be added Vocabulary must henceforth Put forth the fact That he's not visited you yet
If God was man made Man was God made This would end the debate Or Creation and Created Both get to perform Both the roles We call it a tie None to vie For the prize Only problem lies Who would be the jury Has to be a mixture Of man and gods glory Adjourned sine die To continue this case Without which our World would no more Be an interesting place
Recieved in times Needed the most Weighing scale tilted Balance against your favour Help and Sympathy When didn't deserve any Came your way By people who Cared for you Digging holes and slipping in the wet sand Time and again Warned before hand Took life for granted Granted it was Instead of being Six feet under They dug deeper To life you from below Their life was in flow You the debris Halting and clogged it slow Two way street Time to treat And return the favor Not to them But to Any other Be charitable in forgiving Be magnanimous in giving Ready to sink Stop the other from drowning Repeated offence more grace the essence Were at the recipient at the podium Time to stand down And next victim passes by Do to them What was done to you The greatest gift was given When no one recalled any event Impressed upon you It was forgotten Or you'd die of embarrassment Charity in giving Memory in lacking World presented to you When you wanted to start life again Easiest thing is to copy Simply follow the duty Forget it after not before Give it before not after
It doesn't matter What you wear The money you earn Never extended a life Professional pride Is your ego s ride All depends on the tide Takes you with it Or takes you with it What matters most Is your thoughts rise high The only place where Mediocrity is a crime Feel for the rest Heart rate is manifest By the compassion inate Born into this world The only way to evaluate If human life were to bear a price The highest bid Will go to the man Who at the plight of the rest Alone in his company None for an audience Says a prayer and Sheds a tear
As a young girl Made to do household work Errands to run Household to please Told it was their duty To make others lazy Sent to school For a few years To read and write Not for their use But to be more useful Married of in their teens To a man never seen Enter a family Numbering many Not even introduced properly Start where they left off Only the address differs Work without pay Continues till after hours Servitude to the husband His family in tow One more joins the row Told to assist in the chores One dimension alone Takes its toll Period of time Mother nature's indifference Had children to raise Not only theirs But many in a joint family New generation to serve Third in a row No reprieve offered No task let go Added on many more Older members to serve Husbands and family To please Children to nurture Guests to be honoured All treated in the same vein Effort increased as did age Born without time But served it fine Did not need a clock As they had no agenda Only time to look at the time Was to ensure others were on time Used as a ladder All their life All climbed and got off right Everything for granted Only life to focus Nothing else mattered How was everything in place and ready to take Never asked the question once Their fingerprints touched many lives All for the better none worse Older age nothing to celebrate More to face Doing it from birth Burden never left a trace When did they sleep When did they rise Are they well Physical and Mental Did they need help One great lacking Is their inability in asking Second nature in giving Did i learn nothing,? Real living is living for others Bruce Lee said These women by example lead Have seen two How did they manage to do What they do One sided transaction Only taken none given None asked is their greatness Did it even occur to me To ask them the question Did you have your meal Food for hunger they provided Food for thought Their lives to be celebrated
A fulfilled life Is a path well travelled The ditches fell into As a part of the process Stinking of the Gutter But a lot wiser Not feel humiliated But a sense of pride Fell into it inadvertently Least a lesson and Never fell again For the same reason Mountains to climb A few successfully A few withdrew Took a detour Not felt like a failure Just a fish out of water Chose the next best thing to do Felt good about the travel Ticketless it ain't Self respect didn't allow that Gained some failed some Cocktail of experience Not to get a sense of high But to remain stable in the head Full in the heart What more can one ask for Memories doesn't make you sour Future lush green or barren Not even in thought Living in the present Crossing the road From past to future Taking a turn no more to return Looking at the mirror To get its permission When the rear view mirror Doesn't reflect the road But the integrity of your soul Needs don't die with death One final request beats inside You need 4 to Carry you from the floor Visiting card to show When whatever awaits At the next door Got your Four More were ready to carry To the gates of Your next journey A life well lead Fulfilled with respect A few regrets Not human otherwise If regrets none Buy a one way ticket As no more trips Back here Signed off forever With no signature required
Causing hurt by act or Words Others forget with time or by indifference Scar caused within Cannot be independent of the inside Neither does time exist outside Exit doors shut Front row seats to watch Yourself wallow in regret Retribution none greater Life sentence in a loop Refusing to let go Mind begs for parole Conscience denies it At one go Thrown to the lions A matter of seconds Living with regret Memory keeps vigil Playing the warden Prisoner in your own mind Trust me the better of with the lions
