Reached 25?

Why life after 25
Becomes so 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.

The Rising!

A tale of  inspiration, building upright, from the gallows of darkness and kingdom of fight, A burning desire to give proof, of abiding strength and courage and coup, An inner whirlwind, rising and falling, like a sand dune with its crests and troughs, magically building the foundation of faith and truth, Its outcome will be a proof in time of all things worthy and filled with chime.

A Rebel?

A rebel is what you call, A fighter is what I prefer, The most important thing of all Is that the qualities don't differ,   To stand for what I believe, To look at people leave, It does break my heart for a while But more than that, it brings about a smile, For it exposes the real ones And the cruel ones, And along it brings enlightenment to my soul, And peace to my mind, To be able to find  A part of me in all,   To be alive and willing, To be thoughtful and thinking, To be educated and building, To be sensible and helping,   Life is a game Battlefield, if you will, To come out alive  Is the mildest of will, Injuries do pain, But can never overpower the gain,   I wish this human race Condemned the norms  And started off believing In possibilities and forms.
