FROM ONE HUMAN TO ANOTHER
Dear reader,
This week, I’m not posting a short story or a poem. This
week, I’m not sharing my imagination. This week, I’m sharing my thoughts with
you. It is with great pain yet with determination I write these words, not only
for me, but for you all.
Nearly hundred and fifty dreams crushed, stopped smiling,
and faced real fear. We share not only a border with them, but our souls, as we
stand united and see this terrible phase. The incident that occurred in
Pakistan recently itself writes a new chapter in the history. This incident
itself rises as a question mark for the whole world, is Islam really cruel and
ruthless?
I for one, disagree
with this as I have my own reasons. Maybe the ones behind this incident didn't follow their Holy Book after all. Maybe they all did this in the name of ‘Sacrifice
for God’. But was it all necessary? Mothers
cried, blood was shed, screams roared around everywhere. But was it worth the
idea of ‘sacrifice’?
In this tough time, I pray for the souls that left us. Be it
Pakistani or Indian, we all are humans and this division was created by us, and
we ourselves are destroying everything. Remember, everything around us is not
ours. We are just invaders of a planet that support life. We own nothing. So,
we have no right to destroy anything, let alone a human life.
There is still time for a change. As Mahatma Gandhi said, “Be
the change you want to see in the world.” So stand united, forget religion and
all barriers fight against this, and pray for the lost soul.
Yours Faithfully,
A human being.
P.S: If I have hurt anyone’s feelings, I kindly apologise.

THE FINAL ACT.
Title by: Achyuth.
This is the time of your life
This is the night where you shine
Beneath the dais of the royals
Before the ones of your kind.
This is your doomsday
This is your final act
Shed out your fears, hold in your tears
Act out your heart, like a normal day.
Run off the stage, into the hands
Of the ones that raised you
Escape the town, your love and your home
Into the darkness, the hands of strangers.
Hold out your palms
Catch your fate
For fate is a ruthless monster
Live, if you like it
Leave, if you love it.

BEFORE YOU GO
From my heart, to yours. Enjoy.
Thee shall slip into the moonlight
Thee shall hold your loved ones close
For this night be the last one
Or the beginning of a new era.
Thee shall gaze into the midnight
Thee shall count the stars
For this might be your last sight
Of the infinite world.
Thee shall speak out the words
That clings on to your tongue
For this might be your last speech
That the world might ever hear.
Thee shall let go of your fears
Thee shall lash out your tears
For this might be your last ever chance
To let go of everything you have
