You're not alone, birds of a feather flock together
Many torn umbrellas bearing the gloomy weather

Many beings are sliding along Phillips curve
Won't be counted unless you strain every nerve

Keeping rowing upstream, come rain or shine
Comfort is like whirlpool, take a hard line

If not working then turn over a new leaf
Atop the cliff, shout aloud and devour relief

Empty pockets bake you in holocaustic oven
Smiles and cries, that's how life is woven

They will mock you but believe that you can
Look before you leap or you're the marked man

Visit every bloom like these young moths
In witching hour, save your naive thoughts

Don't wait for another day, though week has seven
Build your castles here only, there's no heaven
Sahil Sharma Jul 2021
Winds were turning, the sun was burning
Some were earning, some were learning

Despite same age, not on same page
Circus and its cage, work and its wage

Before days were salad, life was ballad
Now scant is jealous, fulfilled is callous

Some were putting stamps, some were avoiding lamps
Anxiety became swamps, solitude became camps

Devoid of the vision, dreams in the prison
Blames and reason, grudges every season

Fast as well as furious, adrenaline was curious
Shifting next and previous, life was oblivious

Downers were prevailing, attempts were failing
But refuge against despairing, refute against ailing

Dive deep into sea, nothing will come free
Don't cry, make tea,from sapling to tree

Sweat is often sweet, let's find our feet
Time is dead heat, smile and compete

From morning to night, between joy and plight
Better fight than flight, journey will be alright

No, that's not just soil, that's golden dust
And that's not politics, that's stolen lust
Muting the voices and inducing the bust
The reels , the inks are mere spoken rust

Some may bully you, but no need to hide
Nothing mischievous, it's about your pride
You are brave who can flow against tide
We're free souls, not trapped in four side

One should remember the echo of history
Need to spell loud, nothing comes for free
Clear the illusions flying in the mystery
Need to step out, not still like this tree

Be yourself, don't just copy and paste
There's no afterlife, don't let it waste
Keep the heat on, they'll sniff the taste
Success is gradual, so don't push in haste
Sahil Sharma Jul 2021
There's some nausea beneath the silence
Something daunting to see this violence

Their cries are reaching beyond the star
We all know who's earning from this war

Today they are labelled as blue collars
Who are just dealing in blood and dollars

Only they say, they play and they slay
These armchair critics will soon fray

Don't know when will the peace prevail
If it's too late then humanity will fail
Sahil Sharma Dec 2018
One day I'll come to take you with drums and flute
Waiting for the day when we'll share the same roof
How much we love, doesn't need any proof
We are held together like the shoot with the root

Why would i fear darkness when you are my light
We will be sharing the same dinning table every night
Then grabbing you in my arms and holding you so tight
Handle me, I may turn wild and stupid in this delight

We are inseparable, like the stars from the sky
You are the ultimate reason of my smile and cry
Together we will run we will crawl and we will fly
People have conquered Everest, it was also too high

After having you, my all dreams converged into one
I wanna see this face every morning before the sun
We'll surely live the dreams which we have spun
Nothing should fall short that much I'll earn

The sun is fuming red hot, just unfurl your hair
Buds have turned pale, beware of the spying air
Like your skin, my fate now looks beautiful and fair
I guess that God has finally accepted my prayer
Sahil Sharma Nov 2018
You all will agree that school life was best
Sharing same bench was undoubted blest

Heaven was there for these nestlings in nest
No idea of big world, everyday was fest

Different skins, uniform quashed that contest
Shoes were polished and badges on chest

One disliked his tiffin but others could digest
Football was punctured, but no fall in zest

Compass used to spin, divider stayed in rest
From pet animals to nomenclature of each pest

Notorious as school bus, nostalgic as class test
The story of nails marks, that fight, that jest

We thought it as home, but everyone was guest
Ready for their flight, tickling at the crest

Now few have jobs while others are in quest
One flock in the east, another flock in the west
Sahil Sharma Nov 2018
Rigid and patient, the untold story of the wall..
You'll not be alone, it will always stay tall..
It won't leak your secrets, howsoever small..
Paint with your favourite colour and erase gall..
Hang photoframes, which you bought from mall..
Size may differ,but job is same for hut and hall..
Whether sun aur wind, it will revolt against all..
Shielding you from every strange eye ball..
Caring an introvert,no doubt of slave or thrall..
Starring at silent lips , eyes shedding water fall..
In solitude, it'll listen your screaming call..
And it will surround you in every rise and fall..
