Conflicting Minds

Thinking about it all, Though it means nothing at all. Seeing is believing, Hearing is half true Sensing is perception And vibes that are true. Listening to the heart, Playing on my mind. No reason to trust It’s all about time.   A matter of little faith, And thinking about the rest All day and night long Passes the stringent test. It’s all about the perspective And some emotions Whims and fantasies Wash away the scars. In a dilemma of faith Conflicting minds at stake.

Sitting perched on a hilltop, Trees that sway in delight Silently whispering something That reminds me of twilight.   Crossing the sunset bar Or awakens the dawn that rose Meant to be held onto Not letting your faith go.   There’s a lot to say And a lot to hear But the truth is here to stay Threads of conversation so dear   So here am I to make a difference And see the hope that shines When I cut the around the noise All that is bound by the weaver!      

 Ancient times, design sublime Hand of divine, wine and dine Age old cultures The reign of the rich How can one forget The days of the rule Being enslaved with And burdened immense Reigns supreme The world of Antiquity’   Every little corner That binds us in knots Yet we are bound To answer to every scar Lashes and bruises Efforts in vain Does it matter to them? Those who inflicted with pain Victory is power Aghast by ‘Antiquity’

Looking beyond the mirror All I see is me, yes me My reflection of what I am and ought to be. So much does the face speak Of emotions that are hiding, Feelings that are suppressed. As expressive as can be When I stand, I stand alone Tied up in knots, I’m (k)not alone #Akele, no reason to mourn.   The mind is ruffled The heart beats My spirit yearns to be set free! Be it night or day, Rain or sunshine Nothing matters the most Than being myself with me Main, aur meri tanhaiyee More than words can say #Akele, Mirror on the wall, I’m here to stay!      

Dreams within me Hoping to see it come true The reason of my bliss Yes, the secret is all of this To fly so high flapping my wings Into the deep sinking sea I recall how I rose up Amidst all the barriers And trials immense. All I wanted and ought to be, Surprising it turned out to be. Nothing but my destiny.   The journey was too long So, exhausting to carry along My never-ending burdens Dissatisfaction maybe Each time I persevere With dedication and sincerity. I get to know it’s incomplete And room for improvement. All I needed is guidance For what was right and just. That’s the motivation That carved my destiny.

mall steps I take, Mistakes I tend to make. The very flight I take, The sight not so fake. Comes to within my limits, Sets to expectations. Little by little, we achieve. All by itself we need. Just to take the lead. Small steps I take.   Bend the rules a bit, Not sure what clicks. Make a noise above, Singing praise so loud. How commendable it is! The entire world of bliss! No one to dictate terms, Living free, no returns. Before it’s too late Small steps I take.

There is no place where I ain’t be judged, For beauty or for brains, A criteria is set for the poor and the lame, I have no say, no thought that’s strong To overpower too long Yes I lack the experience and the wit The very place I belong and fit. You chose and not have I When pushed too far, Silence and anger explode alike.   I stand for what I believe, I’m not my emotions, I don’t grieve A powerful request and commitment I make, It comes from within, not at all fake. Dusting the past, paving the future. Now at present, life’s a teacher. Accept me as I am and get to know I make mistakes, I accept failures. It’s all about voicing and standing for integrity. Flawlessly imperfect, that’s my entity.

It’s a matter of faith, It’s a question of surrender. My body’s tired, My soul is thirsty. All worried weighing down, Tossed by life’s storms. My spirit never gives up, It’s eternally aspiring To search for a meaning, I never say die!   The universe conspires, What my heart desires, All is said and done, But I need to challenge The very superficial life. Am I living to the fullest? Or my values buried? The only way to stand For the purpose I am here I never say die!

Blending cultures, Mixing bonds, Running errands, Lost and found. Amidst the confusion, I settle in, Find some tranquil And peace within. Here I come with my bags, Leave outbound Greenery surrounds. Fresh air to breathe, No mask, no pretence. Continues my journey, In a mood of travelosiphy.   Wanders away my soul, In search of simplicity, Push away the worries, Seeping in quietly. Taking with me some memories, Of friends made anew Restoring strength My heart yearns for The mind that tries to hide All things in my stride. No wonder how it roams. Cherish the moments Sung to me a sweet lullaby Given no thought, it just happened, In a mood of travelosiphy.
