Maybe This is 'Home'


I stand here facing the horizon,
Counting the kisses,
Maybe not, maybe yes
What are you thinking?
My hands are burning
Are you still choking?
Come, let's stay here a little while,
You ,me and your wings of colour.
Our loneliness keep us moving,
Fail me not in deciphering you
You still stay numb and cold
Breaking the twigs
Making a fuss.
Maybe not, maybe yes.
I showed you,
The twinkling eyes of woodpecker.
But you,
You made me listen to the songs of nightingale.
Maybe not, maybe yes.
Your wild smell
And the breezy air
Is holding me back from return.
Your wings of fruits
And the choppy waters
Are promising a home for me.
Your wildness wonders me
spilling around me
After every drizzle.
Come hold my hand,
Let me know you,
Let me walk along you,
Cuddle me close
Your blues and greens and yellows
And their symphonies
Cause the death of my body
And float my soul.
Maybe not, maybe yes.
Your lullabies with nuances
Of a spell,
Make me guilty.
Unleashing my fears
You protect my hate.
When pangs of nostalgia still
Disturbs me,
You tether me to this cascade,
Enlightening and whistling,
'Welcome home'.
And yes, maybe this is 'home'.

Tu Koi Aur Hai

The characters of Imtiaz Ali are always difficult to decipher and can only be done if the actors do complete justice to it. And two such celebrated characters of Imtiaz Ali are Ved and Tara of Tamasha . Meeting Ved in Corsica was accidental to Tara. Both of them came there to be alone and enjoy some time away from their busy life. But what destiny had for them was different. But for Tara, what happened in Corsica didn't just stay at Corsica. What attracted Tara towards Ved was his coolness and the quirkiness which ultimately made her fall in love with him and break up with her boyfriend. She continued to pamper the memories at Corsica even without knowing Ved or his name. But meeting Ved which she longed for four years and being his girlfriend was not what Tara wanted. Tara fell in love with the Ved whom she met at Corsica not the Ved at Delhi. But it was all difficult for the Ved who is actually battling bipolar disorder to accept his reality. Ved wanted to live the life that he d...

Disappearance

  It's funny to think of people who disappear,  They disappear into nothingness Without a warning Without leaving a sign.  I wonder what ponders in their mind During the moments before the disappearance.  They would think of coming back,  Maybe not.  Would they go with a proper plan Or place or a specific medium to travel?  They would probably go for minimalism,  For it would lessen the burden,  the burden of all worldly pleasures The burden of all relationships.  Maybe they would survive,  The disappearance period.  Or they will disintegrate and  Dissolve into seasons.  Or they will be transported to another universe,  Where all seasons come together And day and night  Come simultaneously.  They would experience a new sense of freedom,  Freedom from the monotonous life,  From the caricatures of commoners,  And the ties of restrictions,  From the questionable ways,  Inspiring th...

DiCaprio : The Chief of Broken Souls

No single soul requires an introduction for Leonardo Dicaprio. The man who succeeded in grabbing the attention of millions at a very young age. The man who was destined to be a renowned actor, who was able to take home many awards and accolades. So let's take a moment to appreciate the highly talented and handsome Leo. Undoubtedly he is one of the most excellent & exceptional actors in the world. He has a special capability to lure us into his charm through the portrayal of unconventional characters. He can also literally strangle our thoughts and emotions at the same time. The characters he portrays are not superheroes who can do anything, but simply ordinary people who are broken and are left to face fate. Leo specifically chooses edgy avant-garde characters in most of his films because it can always bring out the best in him. He not only presents a broken man's depression and hopelessness but also his inner turmoil very convincingly. Teddy, Dom, Glass, Billy, and Frank i...
