Shambhavi Sahay Apr 7

I asked God,
What happened to this world...?

Chirping birds became noisy horns,
Majestic trees replaced by haunted thorns.
Dense forests turned to toxic crowds,
Now heaven is hidden in denser clouds.

Humans became demons in daylight,
Every festival now ends in fight.
AI paints beautiful trees,
But a painting can't make us breathe free.

All relations turned into jokes,
Children leave their parents chasing hopes.
Even animals sacrifice for their children lives,
But here a mother killed her own child.

I again asked God, weeping in my silent tears,
God replied me,
Don't worry my dear,
THE END IS NEAR!!

Every religioius textbooks have warned us about the ending of the world because of humans desires but no one cares and soon we will see the circumstances.

"Dare to Try?"

Shambhavi Sahay Apr 3

"Dare to Try?"

Just for one day,
Wake up to the birds’ sweet song,
Not the alarms that feel so wrong.

Just for one day,
Have a chat with those who care,
Not with strangers unaware.

Just for one day,
Be confident in the way you look,
Not through filters and empty hooks.

Just for one day,
Talk to plants, breath fresh air,
Not with those who fake their nature care.

Just for one day,
Spend time with yourself,
Not trapped inside a digital shell.

Just for one day—
Dare to try it?

JUST FOR ONE DAY!!

I know this dare is next to impossible since we are dependent on our screens for work and study but still we can minimize it and explore our beautiful nature.

A False World Of Social Media

Shambhavi Sahay Apr 2

A False World Of Social Media

They pretend to be nice,
But in reality, they are rude.
They pretend to be kind,
But in reality, they are cruel.

They pretend to love animals,
But in reality, they **** their blood.
They pretend to love God,
But in reality, they walk the path of demons.

They pretend to love
But in reality, it's all lust
They pretend to save nature,
But in reality, they make nature cry

All I want to remind you,
my dear,
Nature is not shy.

The Path Of God

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 30

The Path Of God

I was walking through the desolate woods.
I saw two paths.
One was quiet, with fewer footprints,
The other filled with souls tearing each other apart.

Everyone told me to go for the deadly path,
But I chose the silent way.
Even though it was difficult,
Love and truth still lit my stay.

Path of God might seems to be the most difficult path but it is the most beautiful path ever.

Where the sun couldn't reach

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 27

Where the sun couldn't reach

The sun’s brightness urged me to move on,
But the darkness of clouds whispered, "Stay."
Even when the brightness was stronger,
I was standing alone in the "gray."

31st December 2020

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 19

31st December 2020

I wish I could go back, just one more day,
To Dec 31st 2020, before you slipped away.
I wish I could hold you tight,
As on the next morning, you lost your light.

I wish I could hear your scold, one more day,
'Cause now our home's almost silent all day.
I know you are watching us from heaven,
Everyone forgot, but I still remember you 24/7.

I wish I could apologize for that fight,
Which you & I had for TV, that last night.
Now, I hold regret in every breath I take,
Wishing for one moment I can't remake.

This poem is for my grandma who is no more and I still regret that I fought with her when she wanted to watch her religious programme on her last night but I just refused to give her and told her she can watch it tomorrow on repeat telecast but there was no tomorrow for her🥺

The sad bloom

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 18

The sad bloom

A flower,
Forced to be bloom.
It opens its petals too soon,
Everyone loved,satisfied,
But soon,
Left it alone in the gloom.

It's not about flowers 😔😔

Misconception!

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 16

Misconception!

You loved me, I loved you.
For me, it was special.
But for you, just a moment—
Forgotten with time.

For me, you were my future.
But for you, I was just a friend to play tricks.

For me, you became my everything.
But for you,
I was just… a friend.

For me, it was real.
But you told,
It was my misconception!

Afraid to smile

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 15

Afraid to smile

When I smiled,
People said, “Eww, that’s gross.”
When I laughed in happiness,
People said, “It’s ugly.”

When I smiled,
People said, “Your teeth are yellow.”
When I laughed,
People said, “Your laugh is ugly.”

When I smiled,
People made me teary.
When I laughed.,
People said, “you look ******".

And when everything was fine,
When everyone said, “Smile!”
It was the moment
I was afraid to smile.

This poem is based on my childhood trauma when i was around 6 to 7 years old my teeth used to be very big like it used to bulge out whenever I used to smile and my family members often taunt me because of this they even didn't let me smile or laugh and now as i grew older my teeth naturally got fixed but still I'm always afraid to smile whenever i smile or laugh I cover my mouth with my hands. So if any parents are watching this please always encourage and support your child.

What's Beauty??

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 15

What's Beauty??

They said,you're ugly,
I asked,"What's Beauty?"
They said,your teeth are bad,
I said,Oh! So that's beauty,I fixed it.
They said, you're dark skinned,
I said,Oh! So that's beauty,I lighten it.
They said,you're short,
I said,Oh! So that's beauty,I wore heels
They said,you're the ugliest one ever,
I said,Oh! So that's beauty,I wore makeup
They said you're still ugly!!
I again asked,"What's Beauty?"

God created me that's why im beautiful and so you are

Wished

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 10

Wished

I wished,to be where she stands,
I wished,to be your choice,
But I wished for your happiness more,
So my heart stepped aside.
I wished,to be noticed by you,
I wished,to be loved by you,
But..
Again I wished for your happiness more,
So my heart stepped back unnoticed just for you.

Waiting

Shambhavi Sahay Mar 8

Waiting

I waited in the summers,
For the breeze of yours
I waited in the winters,
For the warmth of yours
I waited in the springs,
For the scent of yours
I waited,
But you were at someone else's door
You waited,
Not for me,but someone else's odour

— The End —
