Inner Voice

Bounded by relations

Being born with the relations he never chose
Under the ambit of a family a kid with ethics grows
Then comes a phase when new people he choose
He calls them friends, he never wants to loose
Now he is a man with set of emotions
Who can be molded like water of an ocean
Then comes a new turn, he falls for a lady
Spends days with her, time for him becomes steady
Everywhere that girl, is all he sees
Should he marry her or let her flee
He can’t live without her, when he realizes
Deep into his heart thought of marrying her arises
Biggest and purest relation is made
Foundation of their lives ahead is laid
With this relation comes a new responsibility
Can he earn enough for his family is the test of his ability
He is struck into a new relation, life becomes even harder
Though the news is good, now he becomes a father
Sacrificing his own happiness, throwing away his desire
He works day and night, his wishes burn in fire
Finding his happiness in his kids’ father
gives them all they need
As the kids grow, they tell him it wasn’t special
it was his deed
Fulfilling wishes of the family, older he grows
How many days he is going to live?
Is the question nobody knows
With sense of resignation he takes his last breath
Sleeps in his sons hands and accepts death
Whole of his life, he twisted and turned like a wire
Left in his heart was only a burning desire
So step out of relations and take your time
Do what you want
Do what you can
Because nobody knows
Bounded by relations how free is a man?

RULES OF LIFE

The life with its complexities
has penty to ask.
Everyday there is a new task.
Some tasks are tough.
Some tasks are little easy.
Whatever and whenever we do,
It gets little bit chessy.
To show our real creativity.
We should stay away from negativity.
Or else there will be
problem to solution.
Whatsoever may be the situation.

MEDITATION

Awareness witnessing itself
In silence and stillness
Without any effort
Fully relaxed
Without reacting
Nor any judgement
Neutrally observing
As a seer
Perceiving the Light
Present in Heart
Removing all covers
Doubts and delusions
Ending duality
Revealing the Truth
Expanding consciousness
Bestowing Freedom
Merger with Source
The Ultimate Reality

THANK YOU

When I wanted to climb higher,
You both became my ladder.
When I wanted some support,
You both came together.
When I wanted to fly high,
You both became my hot air balloon.
When everything felt cursed,
You both appeared as my boon.
Dear MOM and DAD,
Whenever I needed you,
You were just a call away.
Thank you for your perfect DNA.
Thank you for always being there.
