The Hollow Inside

They say it's okay
The silence, is normal
For it doesn't hurt anyone
Lest it shall trouble none.

The doldrums of time
Keep beating itself, as one
Never ending rhythm of
Deep thoughts and tunes

Our friend, the mirror
Tells us stories of laughter
In the silence, which shadows
The storm inside us.

We are for ever, by them
They are, for themselves
In the darkness of loneliness
We are all one.

The greenery, feels black
The sunshine, dims dark
The night is our dear friend
Yet the darkness, doesn't help

If help us, you possibly can't
Understand us, you at least shall
We live with our silences, in
Our own mute wind chimes

It's hard, to go by
Smiling, yet burning inside
Cause no one knows, that you're
Living, yet dying inside.

P.S: An inspiration and dedication to the very recently watched movie - Joker - enacted exceptionally by Joaquin Phoenix, and a marvellous story. More than the comic character, it's a great lot amount on how people should be portraying and considering mental health. It's an important aspect of the human mind, but yet, often, we all don't give too much attention to it, which in turn ends up as calculated negligence.

Congratulations to Sachin!

And after a wait of 369 days, the day has finally come! March 16, 2012 will go down in the history books as the day when the Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkar reached the almost unrepeatable milestone of 100 International Centuries in the Game of Cricket. This particular century had garnered a lot of attention, especially since it was the 100th one. And also because it took such a long time. Possibly the most Sachin has taken between centuries before. But as we say, all good things come with a wait, Sachin also had to sweat it out for 33 innings and then came this much-awaited century. It hasn't been easy for him at all, it's not that you by-default get a 100 if you reach a particular point. He had to strive for each and every run, even for the single after the 99. That's how the game is. Just merely because he is an expert in the game, doesn't make his work easy. It just makes others to consider it as easy for him. For him, each and every match, each and every inn...

elections in d country..

Kerala and various other states of d country went to the vote on the 16th of April as part of the Phase-I of the elections in the country. And this time it is going to be really competitive. coz this time people want change. people r more aware of things. they are not going to fall for those old promises and vote. they r definitely changed. this is the scenario not at all places, but same places atleast. so this time its been different from olden times. so the political parties had to work really hard this time to gather votes for them. But after all, thinking generally, elections must be the process of electing proper officials to power and not just political parites. it must b an exercise that leads to the shaping of the country. And interesting thing is, u can always recollect all the negative aspects of the different political parties in the country at the time of elections. They all pin point mistakes of each others. So u surely get to know more. I am feeling sad that I couldn...

Darkness

As I sit within these walls Those thoughts, the mind recalls Craving for that cosy hand With that familiar blue band The shadows in the moonlight Search for the bright sunlight That once existed, for long Without any inhibitions, forlorn The breeze sings in midnight Though the clock waits for the light With the miles crossing by But the moon floats, as its own alibi The walks sing their ballads Out when they call, the nomads Those who belong to this world Yet, while they lie all curved Along the streets, they speak Of stories which call them a freak Smile along they do with might When others smirk at their sight Forget those who are bemoan Running behinds dreams flown Chasing peaks which are unreachable Carrying loads pretty unbearable A day shall come, long-drawn When the time will dawn Upon them with a light so bright Fight, they shall, with all their might.
