A Letter Lost
“My precious,
I write to you with a heart full of serenity, for the mere thought of you stills my otherwise bustling day. Countless clouds have gone past the sky since I last breathed in the aroma of your company. And what charming days were those spent walking beside you along the silent stream of...

Lies
When someone asks you a question, do you measure how long it takes them too respond? The tone in there voice, pitch, intensity, volume? Do any of these things register with you? Which syllables are stressed, and which are not? Should those syllables have been stressed? Would I have stressed those syllables?...

1 CommentTo say you will be with me
Is a possibility
To say you have me
In an impossibility
You could be mine
But I would never be yours
Why not play around?
While we are still around
Who is to say there will be a tomorrow?
Who is to say we might care
Why not make the most of it?
While I still care!

No CommentsGiven the freedom of speech, I write this article NOT from the ANTI-Russian perspective. I aware that many civilians (2000 plus at the time of writing) have died in face of the Russian attacks. Some of my friends freed Georgia, while some still stay in the country.

No CommentsI rise with the sun
I float with the clouds
I wine and dine with the moon
And sleep with the stars
The earth moves beneath me
I rise above it
Sometimes I am from Hindustan
Sometimes I am from Pakistan
I am here, while I am also there
At times I am everywhere
Never you mind who I am?
I am who I am.

No CommentsDeath – a very horrid but truth, such that it is almost impossible to like. The fear of physical pain and misery forms an enclosure around us, so much that we fail to do anything about it and in effect, keep ourselves more engaged in worldly affairs for undying distraction.
No living man knows what death is like. Seeing pictures of the deceased/ wounded in the newspapers or on the television is petty....

No CommentsDNA and I go a long way
It was here before I came along
It will remain after I leave
You and I have only just met
But our DNA has been here
It’s been waiting for us to claim it
It’s been waiting for us to re-name it
It’s been waiting
It’s been propagating
So why are we wasting time?
Why not make a go of it?
