Straight from my heart...

26/11 – One year later!! It’s been a year, Since our lives changed forever, I still shudder at the mayhem caused, As beyond our tolerance limits, we crossed, We’ll go weak in our knees, They had thought, it seems, They were mistaken badly, Coz we united as “Indians” undoubtedly, They wanted to hurt, they wanted to kill, They tried to give us many a wound, That may never heal, But they failed, like they all should, They ignited our mind, To leave religious issues behind, And fight for the country, They united us, undoubtedly, It’s been a year, Yet the bloodshed, The pain, the tear, Is still etched into my head, I salute the brave cops, the armed force, Their resilience strong and hoarse, The saviour from the tormentor, I thank them again, a year later, People died, but the hopes were still alive, India erupted, It came out of its hive, As harsh words were spoken, Yes, India had finally woken, Let us have a moment’s silence, To commiserate the violence, Caused by those bastards, A bunch ...

Terrorism!! We look at the daily newspapers and gasp, Seeing the rise of terrorism in our country, We keep blaming the politicians, the system, But do we ever contemplate, do we ever think, Do we ever reflect and try and find a reason, Is it always necessary to transgress, Is it unavoidable to go astray, To achieve fame, name and success, Is it necessary to give in, To powerful people and commit a sin, Is it compulsory to give others’ sorrow, Just because by that we can have a better tomorrow, We fall prey to easy money, We commit crime in haste, But for once, can’t we think pure and chaste, These influential men tell us lies and give us false hope, They destroy our conscience, brainwash us, And compel us to do their dirty work, And our actions follow their orders, Though deep inside we know, it doesn’t make sense, Who are they to teach us how to live, Just a bunch of corrupt, anti-social minds, We betray innocent brothers and sisters, Do we have an answer to give, To God, to justify o...

We seek peace!! I am feeling extremely traumatized, To see the extent of massacre that is happening. These terrorists have an unassailable amount of fanaticism, Instead why can’t they have even the slightest feeling, Of humanity and patriotism. Seeing the grave calamity on television, I am left wondering how bad would be the real situation. I see the terrified look on the faces, Of people belonging to different religions and races. Innocent civilians have been left stranded, But that’s slightly better than being dead. At least, for them, there’s slight hope for survival. But, in this world of fear and panic, Is there any hope for revival. I look into the eyes of the families of the deceased, All I can see is hatred and utmost grief and despair. It’s such a pity that, For all that has happened, There’s no cure, no repair. From this worst extent of manslaughter. I see the terrorists holding many a gun, I can see the sadistic pleasure, As they see people panic and run. They begin to shoo...
