For people who beleive in FOREVER

They have told me they are there for me
always like FOREVER and eternity
When I will be deep down under
Or over the worst mountain road
with no mood to walk a step
and no resolve left
In those times and if those times,
Come, they will be there FOREVER

How I love the word "FOREVER"
Promises not just ten but hundreds
Dwelling on every dream you crave for
Earning by every beat that goes up
by simply hearing the word FOREVER
The word is simply the best sales pitch
I have come across till this very date
And yet, I detest it so very much
Is almost a ride against reality

So As I was talking about the many
oops few should I say
Who claim to be there with me
and for me FOREVER
In times as mentioned above,
Should I say that THE TIME has arrived
and you are a trifle late
and nowhere in sight

Don't think this to be a complaint or something
No No I completely understand
You are a bit caught up
in the daily chores very challanging
And please don't worry the least
I am there for myself
Coz I have nowhere to go
other than being friends with me
As I now see you no more

Don't also worry as that is what you may
Of the tiny little time you have
"I will be fine" as I keep saying to myself
like over and over again
Not because of you or my will
but I have great hopes from "Forever"
No time or test or friendship is forever
As "Forever" is hardly ever.

Sarcastically Your's

Some Things Unexplained......

"Oh I was just thinking about it and it happened" is a sentence that I have had the privilege of saying more than once in my life. I am using the word privilege because it seems like an unknown POWER. Its as if we already knew that this thing was certain and yet, didn't listen. There are many instances that come to my mind where unexpected things happened.. literally unexpected ...you know not even least expected but completely unexpected and there was no explanation. I have asked to myself tons of times if we carry knowledge that is so sacred and pure that only when we feel a strong and unadulterated emotion or a want so deep that only the soul can read it, do we sense the Power.

I have no answers. I feel the day we know it, we would have solved the mystery of life and then there would be no meaning to life . In that case, maybe this power is making life interesting by keeping us ignorant.

I have pondered a lot as to Why would few people have the power of Dejavu or sixth sense as you would like to say. I remember an incident back in time when I was at my Masi's place in Jaipur desperately wanting to go back home to Delhi. Unfortunately my Nanaji was unwell so none of the adults could come all the way to bring me home. I was literally praying to be back and missed my Mom like anything. Somewhere around wee hours of morning, one day, I dreamt that my cousin Didi and sister are going to come to Jaipur that very night by 10.30pm train. I told my Masi about the dream but she said that is not possible. Strangely around 5.30pm, I received a call from Delhi stating that both my sister and Didi were coming. And top it all by the 10.30pm train that very night.

I still have not been able to figure that incident and the reason. Just yesterday, I was walking with my sister and wished if I could bump into my friend and get a lift too. Well believe it or not, I met her and she gave me a lift too. There have been times when things have gone wrong, I feel that somewhere I always knew they would. Maybe never wanted to believe the knowledge or felt things should not go wrong, but yes knew it. Knew it well, but didn't want to listen to the wisdom. Primarily because it is so unexplained and illogical at least on the face of it. Maybe as we grow, we become more wise, or not. Who Knows. Or maybe age has nothing to do with it. It is more a function of introspection and purity.

Like having less chaos , more clarity and basically knowing your self better every day than judging others with vengeance and prejudice.
Let me see if I gain qualities that will make me smile a bit more and scoff much less.

Wonderingly Yours
