Precious moments
Difficult times
Stuck in the moment
But time is flying
Growing older
Getting younger
Searching for chaos in this luxurious calm
Looking for the one standing in the crowded plateform
Smothered by the mob
We lost our way
Getting lost as soon as you find the way
Starting over and over before it begins
Running breathlessly to illumination and infinity
Choosing you over myself
Choosing conflict over peace
Breaking the clichés and codes
We found each other and reach enlightenment
Break barriers and bones
We are the conquerors and the oppressors
Refusing to pick a side we fight for powers
It's us against the odds
We strive, we rise, we deprive
We dragons spitting fire
We too smart to crave for material things
Painting the white flag with our blessings
We give the world the truest version of love

Talking to weeping willow
Through her poems at night
Enjoyed and appreciated

Smiling willow was sleeping
Made moon her pillow
Covered herself with star
Studded night blanket

Spreading pure and innocent sparkles

I was sitting beside and
enjoying her beauty
In my dream land
On same plateform

Planted a brown lifeless stick
On the barren land of school
watered it from her water bottle

I asked her
"Dear what are you doing"
She said
"Mam I am planting it to make it green"

I told her
"It has no sign of green. It is not going to turn into life"

After few minutes
I saw her planting a green leaf just very close to brown dry stick

Might be in hope
"To see green leaf dry stick will turn into green stick"

Her innocent act of plantation
Weighs thousand times more than who just gave lectures on plantation on high profile plateform to gain appreciations.

Today suddenly
I realized I am in category of an adult person
When someone had discussion
About my job
After I finish my B. Ed
Other came had discussed about my marriage
My mother is in other plateform
Collecting jewellery for my marriage
My grand mother
After looking me dressed nicely for a marriage party
O! Girl is now fully grown up
Start looking for a suitable guy
My eyes filled with tears
Every one wants to worry for my future
Job, marriage then keep on running
Then for a baby
But just few years back I was in my nineteen
Where those years disappeared
I couldn't see and enjoy those moments
No one wants to see and ask
What is going inside me?
I feel helpless
Sometimes feel suffocating
To run away from all these forced responsibilities
Am I wrong?
Or people around me in hurry to fix me at their desired place
I realized today
Every one around me
Trying to make me realize
Ready to take responsibilities of this society
Immaterial whether I like or not
I enjoy or not
Am now I an adult!

Miss a beautiful tree
Was standing on the round about of beautiful city

When I passed through
way to my school
Its sight mesmerise me

Tall straight hung with
bunches of pink flowery
Blossom and spread it's
spell bound melody

Gave glimpses of its divinity
from very far on the road

Every ascending move for
glorifies its mastery

Nascent sunrays falling
intensify its brightness
Seems to give message of love and purity

After one vacation
It was not traced by eyes

Tree was missing from its place
Only left a deserted raised plateform of bricks and clay

I wish
May see one day
Raised a reverent sapling
From the roots left  behind by the Fallen Tree
