THE MID-TWENTIES CRISIS

Friends, I am born in 1990, December which makes me 25 plus in age. So, I have always got these feelings that this is an age where you neither are a teenager nor a complete adult. This is the learning period and is usually a little messy from my personal opinion. So, in this post, I have tried to jot down my feelings on this mid-20 crisis. Hope you all like it.


Have you crossed the age of twenty-five?
Then your life may seem to be messed up like a bee-hive.
As you are not a teenager anymore,
So you must have stopped being a day-dreamer.
But still you can’t behave like an adult,
And you may be expressing everything without any halt.

Life has never seemed so tough,
When even if you want you can’t laugh.
Because people start judging you from each word you say,
And for them, your one word has many meanings to convey.
Long are those days, when to a girl you could ask for a walk,
Because at this age, they always think it’s their heart you wanna hack.



Try being serious and you will be termed grumpy and bore,
And when you express more, all say childish nature is still at your core.
The teenager say you have become a generation old,
And people elder than you say you are being too bold.
You are sandwiched between two distant generations,
And both of them try to teach you their thoughts and lessons.

Though the rebellious flame is still burning in your soul,
But it’s slowly extinguishing, leaving away the burnt coal.
For every bad thing where you would have shouted before few years,
Now you just close your eyes and shut down your ears.
You don’t know clearly how to react in a particular situation,
And if you keep quiet ignoring them, people accuse you of taking unnecessary tension.

Your heart says you to say everything you want,
But your brain stops you and says, “No, you can’t”.
The definition of love has changed for you,
And you have now known heart breaks are not new.
Your youth inside you demands you to take revenge,
But then you realize, even if you win, nothing’s gonna change.


You have not become experienced like your nearby elders are,
But also you are not immature like those 18 years are.
The same people who say you that you have grown up big,
When you act too matured, they always take a dig.
Thoughts from both the age groups come to you during any situation,
You confuse between which one to choose and finally learn a lesson.

You must be thinking friends, why I wrote this post?
Even I am a guy from the nineties, who kind of felt a little lost.
With every new day I have changed my own definitions of friendship and love,
And I have come across these feelings which I have penned above.

It may be only me who is having these feelings on this land,
But friends, even if you have felt any one of these lines, then please raise your hand.
Because even one raised hand will make me sure,
That I am not exactly mad which I have always thought for sure. ;) :P



P.S. - Learn learn and learn; until you earn... :)

KARMA IS A BITCH...

Today I encountered a good experience, and my belief on GOD or whatever you call strengthened more. Its true whatever you do, will return back to you because KARMA IS A BITCH... Hope you all like it...  Today morning a wonderful experience I had, Though it felt good, trust me for someone it was bad. But what to do KARMA IS A BITCH, It never leaves till to you a lesson it teach. For every single word you speak that hurts other, One day with interest returns back to you and bother. But I am happy that someone is there, Who is ready to give every human their deserving share. Experiences in past had already made me a believer of God, But today I knew that no human is spared from his sword. The saying is true that, as you sow, so shall you reap; Even in a second the fortunes can flip. Don't hurt someone who's poor due to your present high status, Because even from the mud, someday blooms a lotus. For people who think nothing bad can happen to

LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

P.S. - Please read until the end before drawing any conclusion ;) Living in a dark place, I thought this was my world... Suddenly I felt a pulling jerk, And I started feeling cold...                                                                                                          I went into a shock,                                                    And I started yelling loudly...                                                    I never knew about this,                                                    But a voice came out of me slowly...                                                                                                               I saw few faces staring at me,                                                                                                               As I was in a strangers land...                                                                                                               I saw two things holding me,      

THE GOOD & THE BAD...

Well this post friends is a manifestation of my own thoughts and experiences. The post here says a basic thing. "Every coin has two sides", albeit the story to explain it is a little different. Hope you all like it.. Its little long but usually when emotions are expressed, it takes long. It rained and it rained a lot, I could see a child playing with a paper boat. With no one to ask him not to wet, He was dancing in the rain which many would hate. I always dreamed of drenching myself in the rain, But always stopped thinking of future cough and pain. I saw his eyes lighten up seeing the rain drops, As if he was waiting to play with his hand-made props. Soon after he was accompanied by his sister, And his joy knew no bound as if he was made some minister. Unknowingly before the rain drops they were doing the SRK pose, Even I stopped my scooty and stretched my hands seeing those. I wished I had their innocence and zeal, Even in such a heavy rain,
