Depression

Depression is like a shadow,

It may come and go,

Suddenly it will disappear,

In a flash, loud voices will blow.

                                                                            

Why do we hide it?

When we already know,

Where did it rise from,

Is what we need to show.

It is not a shame,

Nor something to sham,

It can make life harder,

And take away all the glam.

Mental health is rarely a talk,

Let's voice it like written in rock,

Let's vouch to spread the word,

And stop all from being an ignorant herd.

 

Words Left Unsaid

You asked why not?

I said but how?

Do you still,

Think about it now?

We were young and naïve,

We were fun and felt like greave.

Things hurtful were felt,

But everything was gracefully dealt.

Words were left unsaid,

But what mattered was the heed we paid.

Did you try to hear

What I never said?

Did you try to phrase

What you wanted me to hear?

Its been a while since we did 'us',

May be write to me sometime,

May be describe a moment,

May be pass on a comment,

May be fill in the spaces 

Which were left void.

Departures

Departures are hard,

They make me feel like you are miles apart,

Just ten feet away,

You have that piece of paper,

Which I do not,

Called the boarding pass,

Drives me to think we are drifted by class.

That last hug, that last tear,

I wish you come back every year,

To start things again,

To kiss me gently in the rain.

Please tear up that piece of paper

You are holding so tight,

To board that flight,

Of your dreams.

Please come back to me once,

Because departures are hard

And they make me feel we are miles apart.

You Are There

You are there,

I am here,

Will we again meet somewhere?

You were there,

I was there,

We had called it forever near.

But then came a turn,

Which seemed like a burn,

We tried going back with lot of yearn.

But faith had a plan,

It put us through different clan,

Now, when I think of how it began,

It brings about a smile like a magic wand.

You are there,

I am here,

Will we ever meet somewhere?

Illusion of Permanence

In today's ever changing world,

Have you ever wondered 

That we assume a lot of things to be permanent.

A baby gives out a happy giggle

The moment he is thrown into air by his loved one,

Without the fear of falling down or getting hurt. 

There would have been times,

When we would have believed a fictional story

Or related it to our lives,

Like our creation was meant to be the beautiful tori.

How we trust that one person,

To be with us forever,

Until we break faith,

And the relation becomes a whatsoever.

How I wish the illusion was permanent

So that our existence felt like firmament.

But its great that we are open to be amazed,

The message lies in the universe's ways

That we are creatures not to be caged!
