Intoxication
Aslam M Apr 2018
All I now ask that why I am in the middle of senseless humans who are highly intoxicated and are selfish.  
They Justify their Actions very cleverly and indulge in worldly pleasures endlessly.

Honesty ()
Aslam M May 2018
For I have seen many a times
Those wanting honesty
are the most dishonest ones.
Mostly in any relationships , the ones who always ask for a complete honest relationship are the one who are not honest in the first place.

Hundreds of them..
Echos of Silence.

Some have names.
While others are lost…

Few are remembered
Rest are forgotten.

Not one is worried.

Life - ((
Aslam M Jun 2018
Birds make their nest
Take their own time.  
Beautiful ones too.
And then comes the storm.
We need to learn from these Beautiful Beings called Birds who make their homes ( Nest ) with so much of difficulty and take their own time. And once the storm comes , everthing is shatterred.  Wonder how the bird continues to move on inspite of this and keeps on moving in its short but sweet life.

First Love
Aslam M Apr 2018
The first sight of those beautiful eyes.

Made me free from the lies.

The first sight of the perfect smile.  
Made me walk that extra mile.

Was it your dark long silky  
which made my soul flare.

Was it the lovely voice I heard
which made made soul bare.

At least I Tried …
Aslam M Jul 2024
With heart and soul, I ventured forth so bold,
To climb the peaks and reach the distant goal.
Dreams carried high, I faced the tide so cold,
Through paths so tough, I played my destined role.

Through nights of doubt and days of endless strain,
I chased the light through sun and pouring rain.
In every fall, in every step of pain,
I found my strength, a fire within to reign.

And though the stars seemed ever far from sight,
My spirit shone, a beacon in the night.
For in my quest, no fear could take the light,
I lived with grace, embraced my inner might.

Though victory may not have been my prize,
I lived with courage, and at least I tried.

Whispers of Unity Part 1
Aslam M Aug 2024
The Illusion of Separation

How can we harbor hate in our hearts,  
When the stars we gaze upon  
Shine upon all,  
A creation of the same endless sky,  
Each soul a flicker of the divine?  
Rumi spoke of love that transcends,  
A bridge to the beloved,  
Where differences dissolve like mist at dawn.  
Plato pondered the forms, the essence,  
A realm where shadows are mere reflections,  
Where truth is a shared light,  
A harmony unseen by eyes alone.

Yet here we are, divided,  
By borders of the mind,  
By lines drawn in the sand,  
Forgetting that the earth beneath us  
Knows no such bounds.  
We speak different tongues,  
We walk different paths,  
But beneath the surface,  
Our hearts beat in unison,  
Our spirits yearn for the same light.

The Height of Marketing

Participating in a competition
and being the Judge too.
Competitors are supplying Process Equipments and supplying Validation Kits too inspite of 3rd Party Validation Tools Avalaibile.  This is height of marketing where innocent customers are being fooled.

Ego burn
Aslam M Dec 2020
When they both Exist
Both Burn Inside Endlessly

One takes one Path
While the Other takes another.

They see the Light from A Far
Yet not acknowledge the Path

Mock those who try to show them
Preach Nonsense to everyone else.

Close are their Minds so Tight
No Reason will even make it a bit loose.

No matter what happens
Burn they will in their
Ego and Stubbornness
Unaware for Eternity.

The Game of Hate
Aslam M Jan 2020
Same Body
  Same Blood  
Yet we all indulge  
   In Everlasting Mud Slinging.
I am Right You are Wrong.
  I am Big  You are Small.
Making Fun of each another
Whenever we get the chance.
They call it with Different Names.
And all most all of us are also convinced.
This Game of Hatred is played by all.

Hope
Aslam M Jul 2024
Millions of thoughts, an empty mind,
Searching for purpose, losing time.
Passion gone, interest fades,
Business struggles, debts cascade.

Stuck in a rut, years go by,
Losses grow, dreams seem to die.
Trapped in debt, feeling alone,
No one to talk to, all on your own.

Nights are long, days are gray,
Hopes and dreams seem far away.
But deep inside, a spark remains,
A whisper calls through all the pain.

To rise above, break the mold,
A story of courage yet to be told.
Amid the dark, a light is found,
A chance to turn life back around.

With each step, a new chance grows,
In the garden of tomorrow, hope still sows.
Though the path is rough and steep,
It's dreams pursued that hearts shall keep.

So stand tall, embrace the fight,
For in the darkest hour, stars shine bright.
Though life is hard and challenges steep,
It's in the journey that dreams we keep.

The Odd One.
Aslam M Jul 2024
I find no interest in your daily deeds,
Nor in the company that fulfills your needs.
Your attire, your pet, your meals each night,
These details fail to bring delight.

I care not for tales without validation,
For truth alone sparks contemplation.
Governance shifts from poor to worse,
An endless cycle, a binding curse.

Your thoughts of me, like fleeting air,
Are weightless whispers I need not bear.
In the realm of mind and soul, I dwell,
Unbound by notions others tell.

The Punishment
Aslam M Dec 2020
And then they are times
Maybe Seconds , Minutes or Hours.
Days , Weeks or Years.
You are all alone.
No one to Speak
No one to Listen
Many come and go
Some Stay a while
Some Stay a bit longer
And then go
Expectations may never be fulfilled
But there is still hope
That someone may stay for long.

Why ?

Blamed for Everything.
Ridiculed for the Past
Humiliated for the Name.
Blind when proved Wrong.
Dumb when loose an Argument.
Why ?

So much of Hatred.
So much of Anger.
So much of Frustration.
So Lost in this Illusion.
Why ?

Nearly Brain Washed.
Clean and Dry.
Lost all Reasoning
Its all about their Ego.
Why ?

Mute Spectators to all the Unjust.
Always justifying.
Endless Debates.
Confusion Prevails.
Why ?

The Train
Aslam M Dec 2020
Blinded and Intoxicated
Deaf and Ignorant
Board that Luxurious Train
Unaware of the Masses Pain
Stopped by the Few who Dare
Still they hardly Care.

With No Destination No End
Stuck now they are in that Train
Screaming loudly for Help
Dissolving in the Ambience

The Special One.
Aslam M Apr 2024
In the endless maze, trapped, alone,
Lost forever, a silent groan.
Then, a figure, a guiding star,
Showing the way, near and far.

Endless thanks, to him we send,
Till eternity, our gratitude won't end.
Yet few recall, in memory's net,
The one who saved, lest we forget.

Forgotten by most, in the shadow's fold,
Trapped forever, in stories untold.
But in our hearts, the memory stays,
Of the special one, in eternal praise.

Destination.
Aslam M Sep 2020
Same Path..
Different Cars.
Same Destination...
The Observation is of a Typical Highway where many different Car of different Shapes, Sizes and Colors travel from one place to another where the Destination is the same irrespective of the Car.  Is this not a lesson we should also learn and Wake up and Understand that though our beliefs may vary but the Destination is the same.  Hatred towards different beliefs should stop and cease immediately.

Entangled
Aslam M Aug 2024
They lead with certainty, paths well-defined,  
Preach with conviction, in every word aligned.  
They smile, a beacon in the darkest night,  
Guide us gently, towards the distant light.  

Yet shadows linger where their words reside,  
A subtle chill where warmth should abide.  
Is it truth they speak, or am I misled?  
The answers slip through the thoughts in my head.  

Either they're right, steadfast and strong,  
Or it’s my own compass that’s been wrong.  
In this maze of doubt, I'm left to roam,  
Confused and searching, far from home.  

The signs they show, the vibes they lack,  
Leave me questioning the path I track.  
In their gaze, a riddle lies,  
Am I lost, or do they wear a disguise?

Sand Castles Built by
Blood , Tears and Sweat
cannot be broken easily.

Many have tried in the Past.
Many will in the Future.
The Castle may have cracks
Intact it will Remain.

For those who attempt
to destroy my Castle.
Seek some other Castles
built by treachery, cheating and fraud.

Attempt by you  
Will be futile for sure.

Sand Castles Built by
Blood , Tears and Sweat
cannot be broken easily.
Family Business built by Hard work , Sincerity  and Pain cannot be destroyed by External or Internal Personals.  In the last 5 Decades many have tried and have remained unsuccessful and will be also in the future.

Climbing up the Stairways
Hand on the Handle.

Walking on the corridor
Hand on my Chest

Nearly out of Breath.
We had hardly met

Climbing down the Stairways

Sometimes we travel so far with great difficulty to meet someone and hardly have time to meet them and eventually need to return.

Waiting
Aslam M Jan 2024
In the realm of endless waiting,
Where talent endlessly flaunts,
A symphony of yearning souls,
A dance of dreams in endless taunts.

Few cross the threshold, fate in their stride,
To the other side where glory resides.
Fame whispers promises, a tempting song,
A journey awaited, though arduously long.

Yet, the others stand in helpless gaze,
Watching dreams like distant haze.
Talents showcased, a silent plea,
Wandering when their time will be.

Patience, a virtue, some endure,
While others surrender, dreams unsure.
Daily battles, relentless they fight,
Some strive for dawn, some embrace the night.

Their talent, a double-edged sword,
A gift and curse in one accord.
To perform, day by day,
In the wait for their moment's ray.

A stage awaits, the spotlight keen,
For those who persist, remain unseen.
In the rhythm of life's silent sound,
They wait to be found, dreams unbound.
