Cee’s FOTD

I am learning after an age it is difficult to bend
I am learning some relationships I need not mend

I am learning life flows irrespective of me
I am learning sometimes it’s best to just be

I am learning I have become a sum of all expectations
I am learning not all actions require knee-jerk reactions

I am learning I can lurk in the shadows
I am learning I can miss a few curve balls life throws

I am learning unlearning is an improvement
I am learning moving sideways is also a movement

I am learning to champion causes close to my heart
I am learning to not bother about the popularity chart

I am learning stopping and leaning is alright
I am learning the sun needn’t always be bright

I am learning to allow life to overwhelm me
I am learning chaos allows me to thrive and be…

repeating untruths

manage to wangle sheeple

life’s flow unguarded

यूँ तो समझदारी में कमी नहीं मेरी
जाने क्यों जज़्बातों में बह जाता हूँ

जानता हूँ झूठ है फ़ितरत में तेरी
फिर भी तेरी बातों में बह जाता हूँ

दिन भर तो ख़्याब संभालता हूँ तेरे
कच्चा बाँध हूँ रातों में बह जाता हूँ

कौन तस्सवुर करे रुस्वाई के बाद
आशिक हूँ चाहतों में बह जाता हूँ

सोचता हूँ तोड़ दूँ सारे बंधन अमित
बेबसी है कि नातों में बह जाता हूँ
