Women’s day

You were yelled at all the time
There will always be a reason for their rage.
Have a good look around and analyze
They are always there to show you “your place”.


They have witnessed your suffering
Your agonizing screams, your burnt face.
And then accused your clothes
your confidence, and your “modern” ways.


From taking birth to giving one – everything is controlled.
Your mere existence on this earth, sucks even more…
When for a larger part of your life,
you were made to believe you were untouchable and impure.


Even if you did something wrong
Know that you were never worth the hate.
They shouldn’t have caged you to pay the price
Your freedom is not for them to calculate.


“How dare you share the things I did to you”
“How dare you disclose the things I said”
Just like this they prove they are guilty
Don’t be afraid to raise your voice fearing they will get mad.


Recognize when them leading the way becomes
a sign of dominance in the name of care.
Learn to see what’s in front of you
Excuses for them will only push you towards despair.


Wishing you today they will be there in the crowd
They will roam fearless; they don’t need a mask.
Please do yourself a favor and don’t give them another chance
To be treated like a human, is sometimes too much to ask.


I am often told “Things that doesn’t happen to you
shouldn’t be your concern”.
I guess that’s the reason why victims remain traumatized
while culprit never suffers.


It’s painful to see your wounds
I guess physically you were not that strong.
But the child in you is still kind
I guess that’s the one thing where you can never go wrong.


Keep moving and have faith in yourself
It’s the most beautiful thing you can find.
A space that no one can invade
Your hopeful heart and your peace of mind.

Time and Place

We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public.

Bryan White

Ariel had long locks, Noddy’s house was on the wheels…
Little did the small girl’s wish list knew,
How bad does a broken heart feel!

The empty arenas have nothing to do with my tune,
The magical kingdom is too far away from my small room.


There is a time & place for everything you dream,
That’s why it doesn’t make much sense now…
Felt so precious when I was fourteen!


Somewhere one day, I found someone just like me…
Having the time of her life, living the dreams that I am allowed to only see.


Still I feel the same euphoria building inside,
I am proud of her, and happy too…
At least someone got what they needed by their side.


There is a time & place for everything you want,
May be to speak your heart out but sometimes you just can’t!


When my voice is blended with the echo of my favorite song,
That feeling makes me forget everything that is going wrong.


I am aware of all the side glances,
I can hear them calling me crazy & dumb…
But I eventually found out this is much better,
Than having my little heart to always feel numb!


It’s true that there is a time & place for everything that you love,
But some dreams never die…
They will grow up with you and just like stars, they will shine above!

Colors – Lost in time

If you heart is good, don’t let the world elude you into thinking that you have to change something about you to be better received.

Saurav Roy

Open your eyes and have a look around,
Your world is on the verge of turning upside down.
Its time you move on and stop pretending,
The Hourglass doesn’t care for your happy ending.


You float inside the bubble of fairy tale,
Watching the signs of fading hope …
And fearing the fall of the final grain.


You cherish the Colors you have got,
Lived in denial for so long…
Without giving it a single thought.


As the time ticks, your heart races…
You want to escape but destiny chases.
Heart is heavy, sunken, powerless and weak…
Once was a chatterbox, now it might never speak.


The Dreams you ignore, the tears you conceal,
Falling short for words as the days fly by…
Don’t know how to describe what you feel.

Once the bubble bursts,
All your Colors will scatter in the ocean…
A few will move far away,
Others will just be lost in the commotion.


You know your colors are always special and bright…
They never look the same,
When taken out in different lights.
Try harder to find them and keep them close,
You know the only thing that truly define you…
Are the Beautiful Colors that you once chose!

THE MISSING RAINDROP

It takes everything you ever wanted and then losing it to know what true freedom is.

Lana Delrey

Inside the room, they told her to dance in sync.
She can’t focus. Why is everyone around wearing pink?

What’s playing on radio is not her favorite song,
Swaying to the beats in her head, her foot taps along.

Sneaked out in the open, the touch of raindrops felt nice…
Breathing in the earthy scent, she strolled for a little while.

Closed her eyes, letting the breeze play with her hair that moment,
In the reflection of water, she was happily twirling around in her blue dress.

Amid the downpour, someone was calling her name,
She moved closer and was trapped inside the room again.

There was silence, yet a strange ringing in her ears.
The reason behind pink silhouettes dancing is still unclear.

Fearing the stares, she hid behind a curtain
Her screams went unnoticed and silence felt like a burden.

Somehow the air was thick, and hard to breathe right.
She tried to smile. Her lips agreed, but eyes denied.

She again danced chaotic, music not reaching her soul.
They were all angry now, coz her tears were in no control.

Afraid of getting lost, she needs to mellow down.
Good memories stay strong, this she has always known.

Surely, on her, the carefree spirit will take its toll,
But the blue she owns is very beautiful on the whole.

She keeps herself distant from her heart yearning non-stop..
For she knows, the only thing that can make her eyes smile, is The Missing Raindrop.
