Changing Times

The winds have formed towards direction anew..
And the clouds have blown hither thither,
Sometimes you are drenched in heat..
And next you fall into a wave of rain,
Times flow towards and away..
...Guess, changing is that time again.

Dard-e-Kaafir na ban sakte hain..

Na dard ko yoon apna sakte hain..

Hosh bhi gawana chahe hum..

Toh aisa jaam na bana sakte hain..

kismat!

Tamannaon ke bane tasweer,
Tassawur ke bane taqdeer..
Khayalon ke bane zanzeer,
...Aur Kismat ke bane faqeer.

.

kagaz yeh zindagi ka

Dosti, mohabbat, ilm aur sabr paa bhi lein,
phir bhi adhoora lagta hai, gharaaz yeh zindagi ka..
kitne josh se humne likhne ki koshish ki hai,
...phir bhi soona lagta hai, kagaz yeh zindagi ka..

..

Samay ke Samandar

Samay ke Samandar mein doobti hai kismat kabhi,
Aur kabhi doob ke ubhar jaati hai..
Bas ek Sawal hai ki zindagi ki yeh leher,
Na jaane Kis Saahil pe jaake ruk jaati hai..

_________

Zindagi mein is paar hum khush toh hain,
Par aaj us paar hone ka mann kar raha hai..
Haste toh hum gamon pe hamesha hi hain,
Par aaj gee bhar ke rone ka mann kar raha hai.

.

Yaadon Mein!

Pehle sirf khamooshion mein tumhari yaad aati thi,
Aaj kal har pal khaamoshi chaayi rehti hai.
Akele rehte to shaayad mar bhi jaate,
Par tanhaaion mein bhi tumhaari yaad satati rehti hai.

Life!!

Yeh Zindagi bhi kitni Ajeeb Hai..
Kabhi khushi deti hai to kabhi gam,
Chalte rehte hain Hum kiski talash mein?..
Kabhi saath mein kisike, to kabhi akele hum!

Sometimes..

- Maverick


Sometimes life seems to be slowing down,
When days seem dull with no joy or fun..
Sometimes days seem to be flying by,
And it looks like you have missed your turn..

Then there is that unanswered question,
You can seem to get past it..
But you just let go and carry on,
'Cause all You can do is get used to it..

Sometimes friends leave,
Sometimes love is lost..
You heart feels heavy,
Like a dark spell is cast..

Everything changes from there on,
And you cant seem to forget it..
But You wipe your tears and carry on,
'Cause all You can do is just get used to it..

One moment you are flying high,
When sometimes without reason..
The next moment you fall to the pavement,
Your wings break and it hurts a ton..

It feels like you can make it on your own,
And you will not get over it..
But you just pick yourself up and carry on,
'Cause all you can do is get used to it..

Sometimes you cant see whats ahead,
Your hearts filled with this binding unrest..
Where you are going seems so unknown,
Whats next is but only a guess..

But you pick a way and carry on,
'Cause all you can do is just get used to it..

Sometimes... Sometimes..

Zindagi....

Arz Kiya Hai...

Hasta hua chehra to bas hamari duniyadaari hai,
Aansoon bahate rahe hum tanhaayion mein..
Dhoondhte jawabon ki roshni, zindagi bhar ek taraf,
Aur Ek taraf kaate raaste, sawaalon ki parchaayion mein..

How did I Celebrate my New Year!!

I always wondered what is the best way to celebrate the coming of a "New Year" and I never got a definite answer. I have yet to actually celebrate the coming of a new year. Usually I used to watch TV watching the world around partying all night like crazy, counting down to the last second of the passing year and shouting their hearts out as clock strikes 12. Sadly my cable was out this week and I was deprived of my yearly tradition.

But I think this was my best last day of the year yet. Why? Because the events of the day couldn't have been any better for me! I woke up at 10:30, and after the usual morning routine reached office at about 12 (yeah, I know). My team was already there celebrating by playing a game of counter-strike. I joined in and we altogether enjoyed brutally shooting each other in the head for about 2 hours, after which it was time for lunch.
Lunch was a bit mellow with chitchat over office food about what we did over the weekend and how and if we had made any plans for the night. After lunch we continued with the game for about another 2 hours(and you think we actually worked, :D).

Finally something I had been waiting for about two weeks. Two of my best friends who had gone to the US were visiting and had come to meet. So I immediately left the game and went down to our local snacks restaurant for an evening of getting updated on whats been going on in everybody's life, teasing each other on various topics, serious discussions on the future and its prospects. Time flew, literally. We talked for about four and half hours, after which I went back to my office, and not so surprisingly found it empty. It was 3 hours till midnight. So I started going through my huge collection of pictures to actually see what amount of fun I had in the last year. I found lots of friends, lots of creations, and lots of puzzles we used to play with. It brought back all the nostalgic moments. I began uploading all the photos and it took me almost an hour.

Finally I went home. My brother had just come back from bombay, so we decided we would check out the night life on the last day and celebrate my brothers last day as a bachelor. So we took the car, with my brother driving at full speed over the flyovers, overtaking almost everybody. When we reached the happening places, we just cruised through watching all the glitter and noise. My brother got tired and we raced back home and we were back 15 mins before midnight. On the way we stopped at Mc Donalds for a midnight snack, and i took just a plain vanilla cone.

Back home still eating the cone, I messaged everybody wishing them a new year, tried to call a close friend of mine, whose mobile was sadly switched off. It was almost midnight and it all came down to standing in my balcony eating vanilla ice-cream hearing the sounds of the new year arriving with booms and bangs.

10 mins later I was fast asleep. Nice way to celebrate the new years, dont u think?

Wishing you a Convoluting in terms of happiness, Randomised in terms of surprises, Filtering in terms of sorrows, and Compunding in terms of prosperity and a very New as in never before experienced New Year!
