I just paused not stopped!!!

I just paused not stopped,
Paused to look around the world that was moving ahead with the speed of light
No matter if some one is falling apart or standing high
Everyone is trying to be ahead in the race of life.

When I paused in this race
I had a fear of stumbling upon on someone who is still the part of that chase
Fear of getting knocked down by someone who wants to win it no matter what it takes.
Fear of judgmental eyes who will question my existence because unlike others
I took a pause in this race.

When I paused in this race
I came across someone who were unhappy in the skin
Which covered them
few cribbed for being dark and few   cried upon
for being plump
there were also few who were tagged as third gender
just because their soul was captivated in a wrong body
 which society   found hard to blend.

When I paused in this race
I realised that not everyone wants to be part of this race
There are few who wish to change their path
And walk against the way that everyone is walking on
They are the one who wants to sail the ship against the waves
Fighting against the harsh stream chasing their dreams.

 When I paused I realised that everyone is facing their own share of odds
In their own beautiful way and still moving on
It is time for me to pull up my socks and join the run
Hop on with smile and enjoy even the fall
Because I just paused not stopped

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...

DreAmS

DreAmS Pieces of my broken dreams are still poking my eyes, No matter how much I smile something inside me still cries, Tired of fighting with my own feelings days and nights, Just like a pebble in seashore my dreams May get washed away by my cries A part of me is still yelling WAKE UP N GET A LIFE!!!!!!                                 -Anjana Shetty
