CHANGING TIMES...

The mind machine is working, cutting the silence,
The clattering is too loud right from the time it commenced.
Filled up with joy, sorrows and guilt,
Trying to avoid the chill she takes refuge beneath the quilt.


The two decades of this fog have made her a nobody,
Oh yes! Time is never steady…
But this fog wasn’t there by birth,
Was it the result of some kind of dearth?
Or is it the heart and mind playing the game.


She has always been the loved one in her family.
The bright star-expectations running high on her shoulders,
But then-don’t know when it all started-she got lost among the boulders.
And then came from under the covers-LUCK and it struck!!


She got more than what she expected, joys and laurels were at her feet.
It is not right-she knew deep down within,
Promises she would make to herself-every time she thought it to be “Sin”.
But ah!!.... So “USED TO” she became to it, all the promises went in vain.


It went on and on and so on…..
Until came this dawn…….


This time she knows she’ll fail,
Aware that luck won’t come to help.
It’s high time for her now or else it would be too late.
Loved ones are sick of her carelessness as they want her to excel.


Fun, frolic, carelessness and merriment-this happiness is momentary,
For her, relationships had always been priority.
What do people mean when they say “grow up!!”
But now she knows people will relate to you if you are worth showing up.


Special streak is there in every individual,
Some recognize it early and those who don’t still work for it.
She has always dilly-dallied the TIME,
Making a fool of herself - hoping that the fortune will bring the dime.


She always knew she has it in her,
Discontented she would end up- when in front of others her efforts would blur.
Now she’s going to give “better than the best”,
The fog can be cleared only by her and nobody else.




This one is a collection of weird thoughts...if anyone can relate to them ...please let me know.....
