Together We Can

Self clicked

Limped, Vanquished
I treaded among the rubbles
Of million dreams, lying
Shattered around me.

I yearned for a Distant dream
But my world looked grim
Then a voice I heard, a hand
On my shoulders, “together we can!”

Answering some questions


What would you like to convey if you become the voice of Earth?


(Voice of Earth) I have seen many chaos, actually I was born out of chaos. I have seen many mass extinctions but it will be my biggest loss If I lose you, Humans! I will continue to thrive even after you, so don’t destroy yourself. It is my humble request.


What do you do for relaxation?


Reading books and listening soundtracks. Currently I am reading “All the Light We cannot see” by Anthony Doerr.


How do you attract new readers?


Well, you have to be consistent with your blog. Your content should be unique, eclectic and deep. That’s my method.


Favourite genres of music?


I love soundtracks a lot. It churns emotions in me. My favourite soundtracks are-

On the nature of daylight by I think Max Richter. It has been played in movies like Shutter Island and Arrival.
No time for caution, our destiny lies above us from Interstellar by Hans Zimmer.
The other genres which I like are Hard Rock, Punk rock, Alternative Rock. I also hear Bollywood sometimes.


Thank you for reading!

Self Exploration

Lurking in the shadows
Afraid to embrace the unknown
A little courage is what I need
To get out of my refuge
My refuge in false comfort
The comfort that paralyse
My life beyond repair

Hang on My Patience

Self clicked

Sailing precariously
On the surface.
Stuck in the dark swamps
Of restlessness.
Intimidated by the howls
Of my raging heartbeat.
Oh my patience!
Hang in there On the fringes
‘cause it is you my Angel
Who will show me the light
At the brink of
my dwindling hope
At the far end of my
Howling nightmare!

Life of a Sapling

Self clicked

A small sapling breathes
Giggles with life around
Blends with the soul of soil
Which Cleanses it with holy water

Showered with blessings
Of the photons
Cuddles the tiny droplets
Floating in the morning air

An innocent child
Looks up directly at sunshine
Grows up to become a sage
While it’s roots store wisdom

A selfless sage in meditation
Blows life from within
And surrender timber
Even after death.

A Long Walk

Self clicked

Far from home
With my spirits unscathed
I embarked upon a journey
Uphill, on a Callous road

As time elapsed
Each step brought confusion
My fatigue birthed illusion
As I struggled down the road

Then Someone joined me
A creature, selflessly
A pillar to lift my spirit
A dog shared my ordeal

Our steps synchronised
Our spirits became one
Our faces glowed with pride
And we hardly cared for summit

A Yellow Reverie

Self clicked

As haze dwindles
A glowing reverie
Reveals itself
With yellow blooms
A yearning, So strong
To Break the shackles
Of a grieving soul
And lie among
The glistening, Yellow petals!

Embrace Goodness

Self clicked

Sacred is the noble thoughts lying all around us in oblivion.


Respect and Humility are the first steps towards believing in God. Without this you can’t proclaim yourself a Believer.


We all are designed and coded to see and embrace the goodness all around us. Everything else disturbs us. Violence intimidates us. Disrespect hurts us. Hate blinds us. So why we choose to deter from our path?


Is it the law of nature? Entropy or chaos always increases in the universe. Is it true with humans as well? When we are born we are the purest ones, most civilised ones. And as time passes we become corrupt?


No this can’t be true. Yes some people choose wrong paths. But some, in spite of their painful experiences are adamant. They are never shaken, pushed or knocked from their sacred, virtuous path.

It’s only because of these people, there is still order in this world.
So we have to focus and emulate goodness all around us and avoid everything hateful. Because love and respect is the only way forward.

And everything else is an ugly illusion.


Stay happy, spread love and respect everyone!

A Glimpse of Hope

Standing on the edge
Witnessing grief, frustration
Then a glimpse of Hope!
