My blood will not be on your hands
Though I bleed because of you.

I'm not ur frnd
I'm not ur enemy
I'm a no one
From nowhere land.

Don't expect anything from me
As I don't expect anything from u.
I'm not the same as u knew me.

That person died long time ago.
Now what remains is just a reflection of silence and tranquility.
Time has not dimmed my sensation of revenge.
I can forgive but how can I forget???

But the question is
Who I am now??
I'm what I used to be
From earlier days
The UNKNOWN!!

Universal Truth

I never understand
Why do people fear death??
Is it because it separates
Them from their near and dear ones?
Is it because they have to leave the joys and virtues of colorful life?
Is it because they don't know what awaits on the other side?

All around the world in all the ages
There have been one common factor
That we fear death!

What I think is,
"Men fear what they fail to understand"
Nobody knows what death brings with her?

But for me,
Death is a virtue
End of pain and sufferings!!
Separation from this cruel world,
And who knows if the afterlife
Is way better than this one?

Only death is the universal truth!
Rest is just allurement and opulence!
But......... Is it so!??

The Destiny

I'm not a believer of destiny!
Because,
The idea that I am not in control
Of the events happening in my life
Bothers me!

And trust me,
It's true
There is no destiny
But what we make!

Destiny is just the
Sequence of interconnected events
Which we fail to link or understand.

There is no future
But what we choose.
Or how we act according to the situation.
That defines us!

It is the job of weaker ones,
To sit hand folded
And blame the destiny.
Because,
Stronger people write their own destiny!

The Revolution Poetry Seeks

When someone says poet
Tell me,
What comes in your mind?

A person who is
Lost in the world of his own!
A person who
Exaggerate things!
A person who
Always talks in a romantic way!
And blah..... Blah..... Blah!!!

If that is the description
Of a poet.
Then i'm no longer a poet.

What I believe is that
These are the qualities
Of a victorian age poet
Don't judge me wrong but
Poetry and poets
Need to change with time!!

Because history is the witness that
Whoever fails to change
Gets replaced with something better.

This field of literature
Is in dire need of A REVOLUTION!
SO, who will start this?

You me and people like us!
Tell me are you with me??
I know you are!!

You may disagree.
No offence meant

At the End

It was my pleasure,
To get my heart broken by you!

I am sorry,
But tell me would you mind
If I visualize you in my dreams
Or keep you in my heart
For forever?

Walk straight through the
Shattered pieces of my
Heart and altered ego!
Ignore me, go away
Just use me and throw away.

But trust me!
When its all over
At the end
You will still find me
On your side!

Even if I don't want to
My heart will keep on
Cantillating your name
For forever!

To the girl who stole me from myself!

From the ink of my blood

When you insult me,
And i just simply tolerate
By making a sad face.

Trust me,
Between a sad to happy face
There are many stories left untold.

I maybe a joke to you!
But deep down
I too have got a heart
Full of feelings and emotions.

Sorry, I can't be perfect.
Sorry i won't change myself
For your sake!

I am what I'm
And i won't change myself
For anyone else!

It's your life live it for yourself not for anyone else!
