It’s not yet over if that’s not how you wanted,
for He will bless you as your deeds has He counted.
Don’t fear what you’re doing is erroneous, for it may seem to be enigmatic and gruelling at first,
but isn’t that how you understand the mystery of love?
Mystery it seems, history it may become soon,
but the gravity it contains, that’s a fathomless room.
Be buoyant, be sanguine, that’s what will earn you credit when He ranks you in.
Humanity, altruism and benevolence is what He looks for,
that’s when a happy ending might seem not so far.
Who created ignorance and hatred, may I dare to ask?
For a gracious and truthful heart is what I looked for from the start.
Now that you know what it is that makes the end happy and desirable,
do you vow with me, to ameliorate yourself, a promise undeniable?

Courage and Strength
It takes strength to be firm, it takes courage to be gentle.
It takes strength to conquer, it takes courage to surrender.
It takes strength to be certain, it takes courage to have doubt.
It takes strength to fit in, it takes courage to stand out.
It takes strength to feel a friend’s pain, it takes courage to feel your own pain.
It takes strength to endure abuse, it takes courage to stop it.
It takes strength to stand alone, it takes courage to lean on another.
It takes strength to love, it takes courage to be loved.
It takes strength to survive, it takes courage to live.
A Birthday
This time what my fate might be
Shall be accepted with joy by me
Yet I ask to not be told
That my bones and eyes are growing old
I know the road to life is tough
But please keep another day for such stuff!
Techcuffed!
Addiction
Brings tension,
We are prisoners
Of social media, games and Twitter,
All this is junk and litter
Everytime is not fine,
Sometimes one is on cloud 9,
Give fun some space
In this gadget maze,
Take some pain,
Your efforts won’t go in vain,
It might be a little chaotic
But it is also pragmatic,
Try to enjoy life
Without tech vibes,
Your hands are techcuffed,
Cut them and move with your tribes
Life is jovial,
Go outside, see the world yourself,
Be happy with other things,
Then you’ll know that excess gadget use stinks.
Technology, Technology
Technology created a problem
And of course
Needs a solution…
People are busy with laptops and mobiles,
Not just a day
But throughout their life…
Everyday is now
Moving like a turtle
I don’t know why
It has become a boredom…
The boredom was brought
By the word technology
And the tension is that
They find it interesting…
Meet, Zoom and Whatsapp
Are now the ways to meet
the people who are far
Or as near as to tweet.
Now I think
Why I found it so exciting
I was fine at home initially
But now I’m crying.
A Happy Ending
Once upon a time there lived a girl named Alexa who was about 13 years old. She lived in the NYC and her parents gave her whatever she demanded. One day after seeing a senior talking to her friends that she had over a 1000 followers on Instagram, Alexa thought that if she had her own mobile she would have an Insta account too and then she would be famous!
The very same day Alexa asked her father for a phone. Her father knew that he should not give it to her but he couldn’t refuse Alexa and then she got her own phone with a sim and Insta account! Then she decided to post wonderful pictures and have many followers. In the beginning, she had only 28 followers but the number soon increased to 10140 and Alexa was in the seventh heaven!
Once she posted a picture which she loved but her followers detested it and unfollowed her at once and she was left with only 3 followers. She was very depressed. Her father could not bear this. He went up to her and told her that when Graham Bell had invented the phone, it was tied with wires and yet it was really useful. But now that the phones have become wire free, humans are tied to them. It was nice in the start to have a touchscreen phone but soon social media spread and the wire between human and phone turned to an addiction which proved harmful.
Social media praises you but also depresses you. He said, “Alexa, you have got your phone but remember that phone can also be harmful to you. The choice is yours.”
This statement made Alexa think. From then on, she used her mobile phone only for important purposes. She spread awareness about mobile addiction and its harms. In the school she was known not for her Insta followers but for the awareness she created. Her father had opened her eyes. Her father was really proud of her and Alexa was also happy that she was not a mobile addicted person anymore.
Screens Everywhere
Screens, screens, screens, they are addiction machines
You cannot put them down
Even if you do so, you have a big, big frown
Games, Apps and social media
Are harmful for your health.
You can check an Encyclopedia!
Use them to talk to friends far away
But don’t forget the loved ones nearby
Instead of looking at videos
Look at the clear blue sky
Hear me now answer me well
The only remedy for the screen addiction Spell
Is to excess-gadget-use from your life expell!

Speaking for the Mute
Let It Flow
Let it go, let it flow, they said;
but how could I, it’s dearest to me, the soul said;
taking leaps of faith and credence, I tread;
but oh, afflicted my heart they left;
they left and never seemed to return, and that is when my belief made a turn;
were they for real or just a delusion, I seemed to ponder;
the cosset I bestow, it seemed to shatter;
the pieces so many, I lost the count,
but my instinct made me take a round,
it is then that I noticed, the path was clear,
they had made a decision, and it was upon me to configure;
the mind, the soul and this beautiful heart, it will always be, I assure you this part;
it was time to move on, shift the focus a bit, but the void they created, didn’t let me settle in;
it is thus difficult to believe that you won’t do me like they did, for if you do, the heart will forbid;
anguish, dolour, vexation and nothing else,
the only feelings that are now bound to dwell;
let it go, let it flow, they said;
but how could I, it’s dearest to me, the soul said.
