Hate Bringing People Together

As ironic it may sound, hate does bring people together. Although we always seem to believe on the contrary. From our childhood we have been taught to spread love and that would bring people together. And I do not deny that it works to a certain extent also. But have you every observed that hate works stronger than that? Lemme show you how. Go back to the memory lanes to childhood and remember the first teacher you bitched about who gave you tones of homework or screamed at you for no reason at all. And then you noticed that others hate her too. How the common hatred of all people for the teacher became a bonding topic for all your friends. How you still enjoy the hate talk about a person behind their back. And sometimes people do have too much in common to discover when they meet. But a common hate is the reason enough for bonding sometimes. Even now the strongest of groups a not build by most common likes but the most common dislikes. It does work in a strange way and if you do think on a deeper level you will realize it to be true. Even as a country people will fight each other over the most stupidest things. But when it comes to hating the neighboring countries, they will all simultaneously and magically their own differences are forgotten.

I am in no way glorifying hatred, because the feeling is unhealthy in itself. But looking at a much wider perspective it is still necessary to sometimes make people come together. I hope this trend changes one day.

Seeing You From Far

Tried hard to put you in words, but could not do so now,

A poem or just a few words would not suffice coz u are so wow.

I look at you over the bays and rows from my chair,

You look so damn beautiful when you just flick your hair.

Your eyes are so beautiful, so real and bright,

They could bring a glimmer in the darkness of a night.

Your face so glamorous reminds me of the full moon,

Makes me think about you always, morning-night & noon.

I don’t know your name but I think I know your heart,

I feel you are the one I have been looking from the start.

You are so far everyday but how does it still feel so near?

You are no one special in my life but still you feel so dear.

Your lips are so like red rubies cant take my eyes off them ever,

If I can make you mine this birth I will leave you never.

If you think these are just words and nothing but a bunch of lies..

Look at me and search the truth, you will clearly see it in my eyes!

Noise

Need the noise around to forget the silence,

Noise that is so chaotic and so freaking tense.

Need that noise to forget the striking pain,

Make so much noise that it numbs the brain.

The peace is sickening, silence tearing me down,

Fill the noise through every street and every town.

Drive the calm away in the forests and valleys deep,

Let the noise shimmer every place killing all possible sleep.

Let noise be so loud it drives all the people mad,

Let it be so devastating it fuddles between the good and the bad.

Give me a noise filled world and noise filled souls,

Louder than a million nukes, larger than a zillion trolls.

Let there be greater chaos so people yearn for eternal quite,

Let them realize the value of peace so they never fight.

Let them realize the pain so they make a better choice,

So they always want the serene and never again choose noise!

Unending Pain

I thought I could escape the pain,

I thought it will pass with the rain,

But all my efforts washed away in vain,

I lie here all alone getting insane.

I don’t understand why I never succeed,

I don’t know why I still have the need,

When will my heart n mind be freed?

When will all this end and I stop to bleed?

When will I stop being blown?

When will they change their sarcastic tone?

I want to be ever out of this zone,

I never ever wanna feel so alone.

Why do I always end up alone in bed?

Counting the tears which are fruitlessly shed,

Why do I always bleed so red?

Why am I alive and still not dead?

A million dollar smile in ten rupees only!

                  On my way to work today, I saw a child who was not more than 3 years old. He stood in shabby clothes, by the signal, waiting for cars to stop so he could beg for money. My car was the first one to approach the changing red light and the boy outstretched his arm, signaling me to stop. He came closer to my window and was trying hard to see in through as he was so small. I pulled down my windows, and he looked at me with expectant eyes. I wanted to give him something special. And a one rupee coin would make him happy, I knew that. But from my wallet I took out the 10 rupee coin, which is very rare to get and which was the only one I ever got. i gave him the coin and waited for his response. He gave me the sweetest smile, I ever received. He gave me the sweetest smile, I ever received. It was a smile which said thanks, which made me want to hug him at a point of time. His innocence touched my heart in ways I never knew something could. He kept looking at the coin for about 30 seconds. He had no idea of its value, but he knew the coin was different and admired the shiny texture. He looked at me again, and showed me the coin with another smile. He came closer to my car again. He wanted to talk, but all he could say was “vala pav chahiye”. The signal turned green and I moved on still touched to the core. If only I could help more!
