WAR AND PEACE...

A POEM WRITTEN IN 8TH STANDARD...


WHAT WE GAINED FROM KARGIL WAR???
WHAT WE GAINED FROM BOMB BLASTS???
WAS IT REVENGE???
OR WAS IT A PUNISHMENT TO INNOCENTS??


WHAT WE TOOK FROM FREEDOM FIGHT???
JUST WAR AND ENIMITY.
WHY THEY SACRIFISED THEIR LIFE???
FOR PEACE OR FOR WAR???


WHAT WE GAINNED BY SHEDDING BLOOD???
WHAT WE GAINED BY 9/11 TRAGEDY???
TRY TO FIND AN ANSWER FOR THIS.
THE ONLY ANSWER IS “NOTHING”


WHY WE HAVE TO ALWAYS FIGHT??
WHY CAN’T WE STAY IN PEACE???
AND IF WE DECIDE TO STAY IN PEACE
WHY CAN’T WE MAINTAIN IT???


WHAT HAS HAPPENED HAS HAPPENED.
NOW IT IS FOR US TO DECIDE.
WHETHER WE SHOULD GO WITH PEACE OR WAR.
WITH A FUTURE FULL OF LOVE
OR A FUTURE WITH STRAINS OF BLOOD.

TIME FLIES!

did u ever wear a sari made of your moms brand new dupatta? maybe you did! but did you ever put stones in tablet strips and sell them as medicines??ok leave that! did you ever sit on a swing like a godess pretending the swing to be the makhar and somebody pushed the swing like a real makhar? i bet u didnt! but i did! yes! thats my childhood! the best childhood one can ever think of.. jealous?? you should be! because you never set up a hotel and prepared chatni of that itching plant leaves.. and you never let your friends wax your arms with those pink birthday candles! i dont think your mom ever scolded you for trying to sell her brand new cosmetics in your pharmacy! now am sure you agree i had the best childhood ever! and to share it with were my best buddies! we were neighbours, batch mates, school mates, best friends, sisters and everything! yeah, they sometimes ditched me to play with each other. we fought a lot too, almost everyday! but so what? we were friends! and our fights were the proofs that we were the best!
i still remember the tv serial koi apnaa sa on zee tv... about 3 friends. ya we used to watch it, but along with that we used to play it! shal was khushi, d mature one! rim played shruti d simple girl, and me! the immature, childish, fun loving stubborn girl sanjana! khushi shruti and sanjana! we used to call each other by these names.
now you may think, she had such a wonderful childhood so obviously she enjoys the same even now!she has same buddies.. yes i do! but still... seasons change! and along with them, situations change too.. we grew up. started seeing less of each other. and then a single life split into 3 lives! lives of 3 teenage girls. some of us started chasing our dreams and some fulfilling parents expectations.. but there was one girl, who never grew up! waiting for her buddies to come and play with her again.... the girl hadnt changed. and didnt even want to! still the same- childish, stubborn, immature girl! but deep in her heart she knew the time can never go back. she can never have those days again. she had to move on! with the same buddies remembering the treasures of her childhood, and with some new ones to make new memories! and so she moved on.. but sometimes she still remembers those golden days and the happiness of those days sometimes comes out as tears and sometimes as a story..
so now, heres the same girl, closing the book of her wonderful memories and returning back to her teenage life again!

i really dunno what to call this poem! so no title!

Wandering along the lonely path
Reaching where we had a start
I lost myself in those memories..

I missed the hand that held mine
Like in a peaceful dream
Listening to the songs of your heart
That made my my heart beat

But everything has changed now
For you they are just memories

But when you pass by me
Humming the same song
I wonder, has it been so long??

The way you still smile at me
I know you love me with full heart
So tell me the reason that’s keeping us apart......

unknown relations..


Sometimes you meet kinda people you really hate! But within them you see a hidden soul of a kind one can really trust... and that soul not the person becomes your best friend! You start caring for their life more then your own! You strive to kill the person you hate and let the soul within them take birth again... it becomes a struggle of your life.. a struggle that gives you satisfaction in the end! You realize your real strength.. along with that person it’s a discovery of real you! In this struggle there are times when you feel lost but  you regain the faith looking at that person... for a person with low self confidence this can help increase their confidence level..
And the person starts changing.. along with that person you start changing.. its an amazing transformation! He teaches you the meaning of life and fun in living this life to fullest! And you teach him the seriousness in life.. it becomes impossible for you both to think of your life without each other.. your lives combine to become one single life! Even the hundreds of miles distance fails to keep you both apart..
This is a secret bond that you don’t even realize sometimes! It’s god’s blessings! Not everyone has the luck to experience this relation.. a relation that can’t be defined.. some people call it love.. but no its not love.. you don’t get butterflies when you look at that person.. its not friendship.. you don’t feel the same for that person like you feel for all other friends.. its just an amazing way of god to give the two persons what they really deserve! Or maybe more then what they really deserve! Yes, for me its more then what I deserve! A person whom I can trust more then anyone else, who makes me smile in my toughest times! And I am really thankful to Krishna for giving me an opportunity to know such a wonderful, cheerful person.. all I can say is, it’s all just amazing! What else!
