Why can’t you love yourself? Mistakes we all make, But why is it hard, To forgive yourself, When you can forgive others? And when things go right, Why don’t you accept, That it is your work that lead you there, Why tell yourself that its nothing? Pat yourself on the back, For it is the success you deserve. Be comfortable with yourself, For you are […]
Six months into 2019 and I think that time just flew. 2018 was an amazing year filled with a lot of wonderful things. But 2019 is more important to me because it marked the beginning a beautiful journey. Getting married to the person I love has been a wonderful experience but along with it came a lot of changes. Change is a part of our lives but […]
Each day we complain, About the air that is bad. Our pleas often go in vain, This was not what we wish we had. We blame one person or the other, For all the harm to the environment. But if it affects our comfort, we don’t bother, For it is all in the name of development. We protest when trees are cut, But wider roads […]
During the month of Ramadan, if there is one thing that I look forward too, it is food. I had Muslim neighbours while growing up and during every Ramadan, the smell of the delicious food wafting through the air was one of the best experience. The biryani that my neighbour made is one of the best that I’ve tasted. After moving to Bengaluru, the food […]
I stared into the oblivion, Trying to put together my thoughts, And the emotions they brought, In silos, the way they should be. I thought through the chaos of daily life, One that was so filled, With the a list of zillion things to do, Yet, felt all empty. The list of things that I wanted to do, Grew each passing day. Everything remained unchecked, […]
I journeyed through life, With bits and pieces, Of memories scattered, And dreams often shattered. I kept wandering, On roads unknown, Picking up whatever I could, Tagging it as experience. I didn’t where I was going, But the road often seemed, Like one that wasn’t, Leading me anywhere. I searched for answers, To the many questions, Of my existence and journey, Wondering where it was […]
The dark clouds gather in the sky promising some temporary relief from the sweltering summer heat. The gusts of the wind cool down the surrounding. I stand outside my door enjoying the glorious display that nature puts up in the form of the rains during summer. I grab a cup of hot ginger tea and a book and I settle down just outside my door. […]
When things go bad, And I find life hard, You help me find strength, To get face it all. Through times good and bad, You always have my back. You are the reason, That I smile on the darkest of days. Every little nudge to believe in myself, Made my day. I now look at life with hope, And the reason is you. Though the […]
I found myself lost, In a world full of expectations. There was someone, That the world wanted me to be, But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t fit in, Because it just wasn’t me. For I found solace, In doing things my own way. I had to lose myself, In the chaos of the world, To find myself. I chose to be me, […]
A day without you, Seems to last forever. For without you, Time crawls ever so slowly. You make my life so much better, For in every moment, With you I find something special. You add memories, To every little moment. Time goes by, In the blink of an eye, When you are with me. I wish time could stand still, And I could freeze this […]
