An Unfine Day

Soundly safe,
Was the promise unkept,
The ways of life,
Now, so unkempt.

Down the hill way,
Over the side,
A promise was made
To keep her alive.

He knew; she knew,
It was true,
His words to her,
Were not to be taken afluke.

"Too far, too good,
To be true,
The bonds that binds me to you."

She had agreed, 
With those sparkly eyes, 
All in time, 
Would she realise..

Beguile and empty, was the life
She wanted to leave,
Dilatory or bizarre,
No matter how the new one would be.

He said yes, 
to take her along, 
The journey to Iraq,
Was just so long!

They'd stayed,
They'd prayed,
They'd hailed,
They'd loved.

Never to leave,
Each other's side,
 And never to get,
Out of each other's sight.

Everything was perfect,
Everything was smooth,
Not one scar, 
And not one bruise.

All until that day
Night walking in the park,
Oh, they loved the stars too much 
to be afraid of the dark.

No, no it was a pandemonium dark,
No mercy,
Just laid out,
everyone apart.

There were people,
With guns,
The civilians tried and failed,
To shun.

The streets were red,
The sky had a tinted hue,
Her eyes turned to him,
Panic turning them deep blue.

His solicitude, 
Shoved him up,
He had to hide her,
Before more trouble usurped.

"No, wait!" 
Were the words she cried in pain,
 How could she let love, 
All go in vain?
Because she had him to save...

He broke down,
Fell to his knees,
The black clothed people,
Close in a heed.

She acted out of instinct,
And impulse, driving her
She held him up, with as much strength 
As she could bring up..

She was then shot,
On her thighs,
But still,
He was alive.

Stifling a cry,
Her tear, heaved down like a boulder;
She looked at her thigh,
The blood gauged from deep inside her.

They came to kill,
So they will kill, 
Not him, 
But her.

SoigneƩ, she had been
SoigneƩ, she will be,
With a little Boadicea, In her,
That she had never seen

For she stepped in, 
At the moment she gained,
Between her husband,
 And the shot gun..

...and he snapped his eyes open in alarm.

The gun had shot her, 
In the heart,
Which was made of her,
So sweet, kind and smart.

Her plan was successful,
They never noticed him behind,
His grey eyes so clueless,
Yet so beautiful and divine.

Her last words,
Simple and clear
She wanted him to
Be aware.
 
To run,
Save his skin,
But in his haste, 
He lifted up her chin.

Gone she was, 
And gone theywere,
The black clothed monsters,
The grotesque sinners.

She had saved him,
All out of choice,
He wished he could do for her,
Something that conjoined, that devoid..

He hid and stayed,
Till the rescuers came in, 
With no one to remember,
His wife's requim.
His wife's sacrifice...

No more would he see,
Those beautiful blue eyes,
Not again, would he see,
That incredible smile.

The memories,
Of that massacre,
Always remained.
For they had killed so many,
All the young, and all the paled.

As for him, he lived,
With the memories of her,
Not willing to marry again,
Never willing to love.

Just living years of hatred,
For those 
who had shot her,
 In cold blood.

The Killer


My wife- I saw her, pacing up and down.
Her hair flowing in beautiful curls,
At that, I could only frown.

She was unrest, 
Picking pace with the wind.
Then she turned to me and smiled.

My heart melted right through my body, 
And I let out a sigh.

I went up to her, "what is the matter?"
She was rummaging through my eyes.

Her sedentary feet picked up pace again, 
Like she knew the time was ripe.

She glanced over,
But for one last time.

I heard a gunshot,
The bullet pushing right through her spine.

I ran up to her,
Picked her up,
But I knew there was no time.

I then turned towards her killer,
Only to stifle a scream all high;
As the sternum face looked into my eyes,
All calm and docile.

I was facing myself, my killer self

The same green eyes,
The same bronze hair, 
And the same turbid mind.

I knew indeed, that I was her killer,
But how could that be?
The thought gazed my mind.

The killer me laughed, and looked down,
"How do you wonder?" 
Was all he let out.

"She died because of your tyranny,
She died because of your pride.
It was all your rapacity,
The ego was in your mind"

I had no answer,
That was all.
My peremptory had, 
Yet again, caused the fall.

I fell to the ground,
Couldn't get up.
Maybe it was just all too much.

"Are you alright?", said a voice I found;
"You were screaming in your sleep"
The voice weighed down my mound.

It was her, flesh and blood,
Right here before my eyes.

It was self realisation that slapped me in the face.
Time vs me, used to be my real race.

Didn't respect her,
I so didn't care,
I thought she'll live,
Her life in this despair.

It was killing her,
Inside and out,
It was hollowing her,
Scintillation was not to be found.

I did not care,
Until now;
Only after a nightmare
Drained me out.

And from that day on,
I gave her time,
Gave her respect,
And a few reasons to smile.

We lived a long life,
Died side-by-side.
 
For legend to know,
There were two lives,
Lost in this world, 
Of scam and swine.

They may not be known,
But they had a perfect time.
He loved her,
And she loved him back for right.

Respect and love, not much for two words,
Not living them up can impeach your efforts.

Love, and spread love.
Respect, and embrace the ones who do...

The Real Light

THE REAL LIGHT, MY FATHER


He loves, He endures,
and doesn't say a word.
We ask, he gives
and loves us even more. 
We are not complacent,
He can't help but pry.
We are irresponsible,
He is prudent and docile.
We get scared,
he daunts like a spirit Jedi.
He is the silver lining,
the one that always shines.


We think he is led by duty,
But he is led by love and pride.
He gives us wings to fly,
and counsels when we are too high.
He inspires, never grandioses, 
He loves so fully, our heart only now realizes.
He understands our language,
relevant and extraneous, all the same.
Then why do we live so to let his love and pride,
all go in vain?
He picks us up, when we are low;
He thrashes us down when we're too high;
And then we take, just one fine Sunday,
To thank him for the hard work he has done,
all our lives?
We hale, get pallid,
He holds our hand.
We laugh, we cry,
He stays right there.

His shadow, 
A synonym of comfort;
His build,
a synonym of strength and trust
His eyes,
synonyms of age and love;
He, himself, a synonym of perfection.

Thank You, Dad
Happy Fathers Day.

A tricky question

What do you fear?

Okay, so I was asked this very simple question yesterday. I was asked, what is it that you fear the most? I thought the answer would be obvious, but I found myself thinking. What is it that I really fear?
I thought about it for a while and realised that it is just so relative. Sometimes it feels like there are just so many things to fear, and sometimes, it feels like there is nothing to fear.
For a long time, I thought that I feared oblivion, the state of being forgotten. We spend years doing a good deeds, only for our memories to fade from the minds of people?
But I dismissed that thought, because I somehow understood that it is the realisation of analysing and understanding our good and bad deeds. Because, as I always say, what is right is relative. My good deeds can be bad according hundreds of different people for a hundred different reasons.
After spending a lot of time thinking about it, I came to this conclusion, what I actually fear is fearlessness it self.
I may be a daunting person, but I am most definitely not dauntless. 
Fear doesn't shut us down, it wakes us up. It reveals us. It gives us the strength to act, to know. And I don't wanna remain in the slumber of no self awareness and instinct to act.
Fear also breaks us down, makes us weak but that Is the way we react to our fears. F-E-A-R has 2 meanings, Forget Everything And Run; Face Everything and rise. The choice is ours.
So, ask this question to yourself, reconsider your choices, what do you fear?

The Secret Diamond Sisters Review.

Book Review of the Secret Diamond Sisters

I have no idea where to start. So..I'm going to divide this review into two parts, first my opinion about the protagonists and then my opinion on the book. 
The opinion is gonna be positive because I am one of the proud people who gave this book a 5/5 on Goodreads.
Savannah. Courtney. Peyton. 

The three sisters grew up not knowing their 
father and not quite catching a break. But it looks like their luck is about to change when they find out the secret identity of their long-lost dad—a billionaire Las Vegas hotel owner who wants them to come live in a gorgeous penthouse hotel suite. Suddenly the Strip's most exclusive clubs are all-access, and with an unlimited credit card each, it should be easier than ever to fit right in. But in a town full of secrets and illusion, fitting in is nothing compared to finding out the truth about their past

Protagonists 
So I finished this book yesterday, and I was super excited to write a review on it. 
This book revolves around these 3 sisters and one intruder(as I like to call her). 
First of all, I loved the names- 
Savannah, the oblivious youngest Diamond sister. She is the most sensitive and and alluring one of the the three( by the way, she is the one on the cover). She gets let off easily and lives in a dreamland most of the time. What is right is relative, right? And for her, Right is everything that is expensive, sparkly...and yes, Girly. I have nothing in common with her. But I like how she pulled herself together in times of panic( although for her panic comes only in matters related to clothes). She was my least favorite of the three sisters. A fact all the people who read the book found rather ludicrous. Well, I don't know, Its just my opinion.
Not a lot of people liked Peyton, the oldest sister. I begged to differ, as you have probably noticed, I'm quite a rebel. And that's exactly why I liked her. Although our way of implementation is very different, our choices and way of thinking are very similar. 
Then comes the favorite sister, Courtney. I am definitely a lot like her. Not just me, but every other Indian teenager. Sophisticated, classy and wary of breaking the rules. She is just perfect. 
And Madison, well.
I have nothing to say about her.

 I didn't get her motives. She was just so clueless..so, yeah( She is the intruder)
My Opinion
Positive. So much fun. Its not everyday that I have fun reading books. I read a LOT of books of course. But mostly they have bittersweet ends and they leave me very woeful. Especially after reading my Summertime sadness collection. So I highly recommend it. Go pick it up, its on Amazon. You'll love it. I'm sure.
It was a sweet story about teenagers without any complication. I loved it. Also the male protagonists are awesome. I don't wanna spoil anything for anyone..so I didn't include them. 
Quick Update- I will be reviewing the Spain vs Netherlands match, which is going to be AWESOME. So remember to be back tomorrow to read it.

A new beginning

"Every New beginning comes from another beginning's END"

When we look back on our lives, there are some good things and bad things which remain in our memory.
My thesis is that our life is just a series of fill in the blanks.
We fill out some, get confused at some, panic a lot. But in the end, we get an answer. 
Everytime we smile, we are ecstatic, or low. A blank fills out itself. 
An unremitting series of blanks. That's our life.
We can be genteel or rogue, its our choice. 
We fill out our blanks ourself. 
We answer the questions ourself. 
We reach a penultimate point. The cornucopia of questions in the hands of the Supreme Power(I would regard that as us)
Our life begins a new series of questions, 
and then, a new chapter begins.
This is my new chapter. I have answered quite a few questions to reach this chapter. 
I didn't answer any questions about Life. 
I cannot actually do that, I'm 14.
But what i do know is that, this is a new day.
 The sun eventually sets, Days don't last forever, yeah? 
But I beg to differ. 
Because we can be daunting, delirious, oblivious and still know the truth about everything.
Still love and spread love,
Live and let live. 
Its a new start, i don't know how it will turn out.
But why jump to conclusions when you have your whole life in front of you?
Welcome to my blog.
I'm not this boring everyday, I just wanted to let you know how exited I am for this new beginning. And I know, I believe, the Sun wont set this time.
And when it does, it'll settle in for good. 
I'm not a pessimist, or an optimist.
I'm a realist.
I'm a daunting rebel.
I'm an enthusiast.
PS. thank you for reading.
