Dad's Lil Girl...!

Dad's Lil Girl...!
                                 
She was lost in her thoughts ,
blank in her eyes ,
broken in her dreams,
crumpled in her life.

still managing to stand bold upfront
expecting fate to turn right
after all she is dad's lil girl

the eyes that are blank today
once had dreams to chase in every way,
the thoughts that are lost today,
once had a words , joy and may.

Staring blankly at the hospital wall
unknowingly fidgeting with the cancer tumour,
behind the oxygen mask
counting her breath on heartbeat monitor.

Dad's lil girl holded his hand
who was trying hard to be strong
and said something that broke him down

'"Daddy cuts and wounds ,bumps and bruises
required all your love,
then how this cancer ran so deep
that it can't be cured even  by your love "

Puzzled and shattered! dad was trying hard
to find answer in chaos of hospital ward

He said "my lil princess cancer is a monster
that knows only to hurt one who is stronger,
its just lump of tumour that is hollow
which will be cured only with your smile's shadow "

May be this was the words that her ears were longing for
because today she looks more prettier
even with shaved head.
when she hold her dad's hand and walk on lane.

She = MOTHER !!

She = Mother !!!!!! She is the first person to listen to our heart beats, our smile and our cries But today we end up saying “MOM GET AWAY ITS MY LIFE !!!!!”. She carried us, long nine months without complaining even once, But today standing with her for some of us is big offence. She ate half bread to feed us with three times meal, But today we are so busy that we can’t accompany her in one meal. She buried her dreams to give life to our aspirations, But sometimes in this run we even forget her soul existence. Only she has strength to withstand your ignorance, to pardon your mistakes, And to give best of all to you no matter what it takes. Be the shoulder on which she can cry, be the reason of her smile, Be the strength if she breaks down, Be the best thing that can happen to her in her life and make her proud, Cos MOTHER is the only one whom no one can replace in world’s CROWD - Anjana  Shetty

Don't let the DREAMER die!!!!

  Don't let the DREAMER die!!!! To the beautiful YOU, to those pair of twinkling eyes which are reading this through, I know you are willing to get lost in the words that I am going to write, Let me guess ! You are searching for the pair of rhymes which is capable of describing gist of your life Words that might end  up touching the dead nerves of your life, or may tickle you and bring the unstoppable laugh that is heard through miles. Few phrases that I scribble here might even take you to the journey through  memory lane, where you might have acted stupid,serious,funny,brainy or may be just lame!!! But ain't we all have stories that can be narrated hours and days long, even then it gets confined within few words and vocabulary strong. Hey look!!  there's someone sneaking through, isn't that someone just like you?  I got it! its the painter or writer or may be actor within you that was trying to peep through. It is drea...

Drops of Scar!!!

Drops of Scar!!! Spilling the brutal truth beans Unveiling the ruthless move of human being, Tightening the grip of scarf Hiding the face covered with brutal   scars, She narrates the misery of human kind How droplets of acid have stagnant her life, Drops of liquid that were splashed not to drench her body But to burn her DREAMS, Tarnish her thoughts and melt down are living Screaming her lungs out pleading for help, Road was jam packed with people but none came ahead to help, Death was more tempting than the urge to live, Melting skin dripping over the edges of her body parts Made shiver run down her spine, She closed her eyes to avoid the dreadful scene Just to feel her eye lid melting down.                                                  -     Anjana
