Reached 25 ?

Why life after 25
Becomes difficult ?
Like why so lost ?
Why so much despair ?
What are we searching ?
Where are we heading ?

 Maybe because till 25,
It's all decided,
Like
After 10th, it's 12th
After school, it's graduation
After Bachelors, it's Masters
After that, it's the job.

 What next ?

 What after you have had parties ?
What about the evenings after the job ?
What about your dreams ?
What about marriage ?
What about kids ?
What about marrying at 25 or 30 ?
What about the social norms ?
What about carving your own path ?
What about your ageing parents ?

 Does any of this haunt you,
Or make you feel 
Too much human ?
Or do these things,
Leave you worried,
And so you choose distractions,
To avoid thinking,
And finally choose to follow
The routine.

An intense grip!

Not having met you Never made me feel empty, But having met you Makes me feel weak, Not that I can't survive, But it's a struggle of not wanting to, A struggle of knowing All that should be known, And yet unable to Hold back from the unknown, A dying sense of urgency Although there is none in the vicinity, A profound feeling of having found A feeling so intense That it just couldn't be spent Even after exhausting every cent.

A Recovering Heart !

Only If We Could See Things Coming ! To see things coming Is a matter of luck, When you can't see On a human plane it sucks To remain prepared Is what we would want, To balance the present Might miss out on the round We fight, we clamor, We plead, we worry, We curse, we wish But after all this, We forget, That's it's a lesson, Not to regret. You or Animals ? The line between...

Mistakes.

A question has been Haunting me Of rights and wrongs, Asking me with bland eyes To figure out the wants, I held to this thought For very long, Having been taught That lesser the mistakes Better the stakes, What I seem to have learnt Is that the more the score Of your mistakes The greater the chances Of knowing what it takes, The lesser you commit mistakes The fewer the opportunities And smaller the gates.
