The Mysterious Stranger

-
Girl with a Yellow Umbrella by Daniel Xiao
Why do I care so much
About that mysterious stranger?


Dying to get a glimpse of her,


To see that fabulous smile,


To listen to that melodious voice,
And my heart's wish,
To Never to let her go..
Am I going crazy?
Or is it just my heart?
Who runs like a child
Towards a cotton candy;
Or dances like a peacock,
in the first rain;
Or flowing like a river,
Into the vast ocean of,
Bewilderment..
The pain It feels,
Is more real than,
It's very own existence
Dying to greet,
Its mysterious stranger...

When it's all over..

When it's all over, I will come home, maa, Will sleep cozily on your lap, whole day, Without a worry in the wide world, Like I was born yesterday, When it's all over, I will sit down with you dad, We will have some grown up chats, About getting through the hardship, Then we will raise a toast to our, Newfound relationship, When it's all over, I will buy you that phone, kiddo, Which you always wanted, But first, you gotta promise me that, You will not take this life for granted, And work hard, be a decent man, Read as many books as you can, When it's all over, We will finally take that road trip, guys, Which we always planned, But never really went, Now, I am ready to have, on my car, Some beautiful dents, When it's all over, I will buy you some flowers, my love, We will walk under the blue sky, Lazily gazing clouds, Then I will hold your hands, And promise to grow old together, We will ride the tides, Through each and every weather, W...

About Memes!

Word limit: 1700. One lazy evening I was glued down to my sofa, owing to ennui induced out of nowhere, scrolling endlessly through my news feed, switching back and forth through various 'social' media apps and saw this then I realized that I have been taking memes absolutely for granted till now and took up this unusual yet enjoyable task to write something about them. I bet that you would not need an introduction to this guy, or this great lady,( Yeah, she is great because she voiced her opinion fearlessly ) And I bet, you must have come across this dude  numerous times already.   Strange thing, we are absolutely clueless about who these people really are and yet we are quite familiar with them at the same time. Thanks to what some people call ‘ maymay'’ and others ‘ meem ’, even though this phonetic schism has left us divided, we all enjoy the effect produced by them quite unequivocally. Memes, who doesn't enjoy them? Scrolling down through ...

'Rape Culture' in India

2800 Words. 5th Dec 2019. The rape survivor from the Unnao case was set ablaze on her way to court hearing of her own rape case trial. After reading this news, I was furious and slightly disheartened. What triggered my furor the most was, how men with power try to suppress the voices of the victims by bending the law at their own will. Like most of us, I took it to the social media, vented out my frustration and sympathy for the victim. Days before this news, there was another unfateful incident which made it to the international news. A 26 year old vet, Priyanka Reddy 'Disha' was gang-raped and burnt to death in Hyderabad which sparked fresh outrage and countrywide protests. Last year, there was the Kathua case (An 8 year old Asifa was raped for days and later murdered as a pre-planned conspiracy against the Bakarwal community), and few years ago, the infamous Nirbhaya case happened (the case which shook our nation's conscience). Unfortunately, this list is endless. ...
