The truth of my reality comes crashing onto me
All the people stand still
Or in my head, they do
They don’t have time to do that in real life
All my insecurities have finally grown trees inside of me
Their thorns are branches now
There is no leaf to shade the dry ground
A lot is to come
The tsunami stands still
Waves ferocious on the verge of toppling on
My lone standing shadow
And my lone standing leafless tree.

How have we humans evolved
Into this society, this structured world
Where we are always on the run
Buildings stand higher than 1000s of me piled together
The sky is a blurry line.
Things make sense to these residents, but I feel a little unknown
Everyone seems knowledgeable
Everyone seems so happy
Maybe it is this network of social media
Or maybe it is the development of minds greater than mine
To unachievable achievable heights.
I lose myself in random musings
Maybe, this world which is so intimidating
Is not the real world
All of it exists just for a moment
This drop will dissolve in the ocean
I will go away into its depths
To be found by no one, to exist nowhere
To just not be, ever again.

At different points, we belong to different someones
And sometimes, you don’t want to let go
And want to be held on for just a little while more
It felt so good while it lasted
Such few things feel the way this did.
Memories are fresh in me.
It is still not the end, but we are so near to the edge
Would I rush back to the start, when this made sense even though we had not discovered this path?
May be not.
But I would love to be a silent observer again.
Here’s to hoping that more things make this much sense to me
And make me feel human and experience humanity at its best-
Love, separation, vulnerable
This connection that is somewhere getting lost.

Inn shabdo ki dhoop ko humne bhi mehesoos kiya hai
Na jaane aapne kis meheboob ke liye likha hai
Apne waqt ko uske soch mein dubaya hai.
Hum yahin samjhenge, ye lafz aapne humko dil mein dabakar
Ek kagaz par utara hai.
