Lost !


Lost I am somewhere in the swarm of men,

In the ever intensifying bloodthirsty world,


We live under the shadows of terror & beg for peace,


There seems to be no respite from our troubles,


We fight for an existence, to become from no one to someone…



Lost we are somewhere in the rat race,


In the quest to outperform each other,


We resort to improbable means,


Breaking free from all the ethical & moral grounds,


Accrediting others efforts as ours…



Lost we are in our hopes & aspirations,


I, me, myself is all what we believe in,


We befriend others for our self interest,


Craving for power, fame & affluence,


We have sold our souls to these devils…



Lost we are in the maze of life,


Where everybody is looking for that one moment of glory,


Where everything is fair, everything is justified,


Where no one can be trusted,


Where only the fittest will survive…



Lost & trapped I am in this imbroglio of hatred, greed & injustice,


O’ thy Lord, be the guiding light,


Show me the direction; let me be illuminated with your divine spirit,


So that I don’t stay Lost in this mesh forever …


The Underdog



He who rises from the ashes,


Who nobody thinks as a winner,


Who nobody associates with success,


Who everybody dismisses as destined for failure,


Who everybody considers incapable, incompetent,


But he proves everyone wrong,


He kills all competition with his grit determination,


He outperforms everyone,


He shows strength of character,


He overcomes all the hurdles,


He not only triumphs but also,


Rejuvenates the spirit of hope amongst the masses,


He makes a mark, stamps his authority,


He shows the world, that ridiculed him earlier,


What he is made of,


He is the underdog,


Rise O Rise and shine with glory of victory,


Spread the light & inspire others,


So that they also come out of their shell &,


Taste the sweet smell of success.

Dreamz....



Dreams


They are one of your most dreaded thoughts,


Or they might be one of your most cherished ones,


They might force you to wake up in the middle of night and wonder…,


Could this really happen to me?


Can I be a millionaire one day?


Can my life end up this way?


Or is this really how I am going to be 10 years down the line?


It s all in the power of imagination,


That takes us to places….places unknown,


Never heard about or seen in real life,


Or you might just choose to travel to far-off places,


To the opera in darling harbor, to the ancient monumental heritage of Rome,


To witness the World War 2 back in the 40’s,


Or to see India get independent,


It’s amazing what all you can do by just dreaming,


You can be the King of Jordan, the owner of luxury-suave houses and cars,


It’s through these little figments of thoughts,


That we are convinced and inspired to turn them into reality,


Whether in a constructive or a destructive way is the prerogative of the individual,


Many nations have been transformed by dreamers, who had faith in their dreams,


Nelson Mandela, Che Guerrera, Mahatma Gandhi amongst many others,


Who can forget “I HAD A DREAM” by Martin Luther King?


With dreams, come ambitions, with ambitions comes courage,


With courage comes the belief, and with belief comes success,


So start dreaming and not just dream shape them into veracity!
