Trying to Break Down an Unbreakable Wall

I was inside a cave,
With no sight of light,
And pitch black filled the space,
Against which I was trying to fight.

I have to break out,
of this shell of a cave,
With guts in my heart,
And me being brave.

I wasn't a caveman,
but was forced inside my lair,
Where i later came to be known as a monster,
And to enter my territory, they did not dare.

I was trying to break down an Unbreakable Wall,
That was once blocking my way,
It was a fight against my soul,
All i didnt know was, it was my day.

Then a ray of light entered,
The eternal realm of darkness,
And for the first time in my life,
I didnt feel absolutely helpless...

Bright Light

You're walking down the aisle,
Where you last found yourself.
It's a long way down to nothing,
Where the winds call themselves.

There's nothing to be seen,
In plain sight,
But I'm counting on that silky,
Bright Light,
There, On the Horizon...

Trying to find something to hold on to,
Something worth doing.
Because there is only a thin line between,
Something done, and something worth being.

...

So, I hope that you too have that Bright Light that keeps you going!

Beyond

You have got to live up to your name,
And go beyond the stereotype.
Hate the player, not the game,
And eat the fruit while it is still ripe.

Be the knight to the legends,
Let your Soul be free.
Be the right to the wrong,
When the others don't agree.

When the night is above,
And the Oracle has foreseen.
Do the dance when you are young,
And become what you need to be...

...

Now that i look up,
It's all I see.

Arrival

My train of thought has arrived,
On a horror-stricken demise.
What is it, this World we live in?
Will the bad things ever end?
Would every bad choice lead to the birth of a sin?
Will the whole World be ablle to comprehend?
That how precious a gemstone life is?
You need to succeed,
To get what you need.
And whole-heartedly believe
To achieve...

Fortune

You're lucky you're not blind,
Thus you can see,
What and how the World is,
So don't throw a fuss and see what you have and what can be!

...

We, Humans tend to forget sometimes how Fortunate we are...

Outer Space

No Wind or any sense of time,
We're moving at the Speed of Light,
Whistling sounds, I hear,
As Darkness masks my sight.

I look to my right,
And I see the Sun shine,
Then I look to my left,
And I see the moonlight sublime.

Into Outer Space,
The most Unknown Place,
Where, of anything, there is no trace,
It's the pinnacle of true disgrace.

I'm looking down at the world in envy,,
Looking at the world rotate,
Looking from up here,
From Heaven's Gate.

I don't know what I'm doing,
Just trying to keep up the faith,
I don't know where I'm going,
Want to believe, where i go next, is a better place...

Perspective

Humans think differently... The world wouldn't cease to co-exist without this thing called "perspective".

Give this a thought. If i say "clock", some might think of time, some might think of numbers 1 to 12, and some others. So, if people have different views on a small item as a clock, how is the world still moving? It is moving because of the different ideas. New ideas = revolution. This could be good and bad. good because of the birth of "Big Ideas". And bad because it leads to war. Now have a different perspective towards "perspective". It leads to different view-points which gives you international and civic wars. both minor and major.

Making Decisions. This is entirely based on perspective. What i think of making decisions is that one has to look from the angle of everybody concerned and then act upon it. This is also a good quality of a leader.

Now, think of judges. Just imagine what a tough time judges of different sports and events have. At times they have to be the bad people because they have to make the right choice. Sometimes, I really feel bad for an umpire when he makes a decision which no player or spectator likes and hate him for that. As Sunil Gavaskar, a famous cricketer said, "The spectators will always remember a bad decision made by an umpire  or a catch dropped by a fielder, but they will never remember the good decisions and the good catches..."

All I'm saying is, people think differently, so the next time you need to make a decsion, or you get into a fight, just think of what is written above.

Thanks...

Thank you viewers!

I am really happy for the number of viewers I've had in 4 days. 150 viewers! I will probably continue writing. Just keep viewing. Also try and comment and +1 (only if liked)...

Thanks, again!

7 Billion!

7 Billion in the world,
And everyone has something to teach,
One can find kinds of people,
And try and learn what they need to preach...

Belief

I Believe there's no limit to creation and power.
I Believe the monster inside can definitely devour.
I Believe in Karma, what goes around, does come around.
I Believe that the angel in us can always be found.
I Believe a doctor always needs a nurse.
I Believe we're not the only ones in this whole UNIVERSE.

The Ultimate Division

Life is anything but a DREAM,
But the dreamers live it like one.
And realists live to prevent them from getting too close to the sun.

There are two kinds of people,
as i mentioned above.
There's the ones who "DO" to live,
and the others-- to do what they love.

It's the Dreamers who design the building,
But the Realists are the ones who actually make it come true.
There will always be that difference,
the difference between the two...

                                 - Amun Khot

Unusually Usual

The world seems so simple today,
Very usual, what do I say?
The wind at its regular pace,
The sun at its regular place.

Strangely,
this normal day brings out feelings of weirdness.
Genuinely,
either this is OK to be thought by one,
or i might be a complete mess.

I sit here at my usual place,
at the usual time,
seeing the same face,
i.e. the face of the earth,
which I'm desperately trying to embrace...

                             - Amun Khot

Grace

Life is a climb,
A hike to the top of a mountain,
One has to struggle during the climb,
But if you are humble, in the end it is like the radiant colours in a fountain.

Along with victory,
comes trouble.
To find its solution,
one has to struggle.

Be like a hiker on a hunger strike unwillingly,
who finds a fruit that fulfills his needs.
Who says to a greater force,
"Today I am happy and grateful,
For what you have given to me..."

                              -Amun Khot

Those Soaring Entities

Soaring in the sky,
Where they're meant to be,
I feel enchanted looking up at thee.

The invisible wake of those soaring entities imprinted on my inward eye,
The image of them gliding down makes want to deny,
the fact that, in this world, there are also bad things.

It makes me wanna,
Skip and dance, and hop and sing...

Leaving

Not easy, not at all,
It's more than just moving to another place.
Neither is it a movement small,
It's about the grace you replace.

Moreover, you come to learn what you cant leave behind,
What is too precious for you to leave,
Things you can't re-bind,
Things you can't again weave.

When new things remind you of old,
And you realize it is more valuable than gold,
You start appreciating the importance of things, - only,
When it's too late and you're leaving...

Can't Put a Hand On What I see

There is wind in my face,
And of land, there is no trace,
There's water splashing around,
And everything i see is a haze.

My face on the water's reflection, looks like a baboon,
I'm floating around pensively like a balloon,
No one around - no he or she,
I can't put a hand on what i see...

Potential

I think there's always more space to grow...

So, that means we can possess "Infinite Potential".

A wise man once told me, "Potential goes waste without Hardwork" That man was absolutely correct. We - humans - have it in us . It is the ones that really grasp onto their potential who fly with vivid colours...

So just keep in mind whenever you're down,

"You'll always have it in you, whatever you do, wherever you go... All you have to do is 'show' what you got..."

Is There Someone Out There Who Knows?

Who knows another's past as if their own?
Who uncovers every mystery before it unfolds?
Who knows and thinks constantly about the present being a gift?
And who knows, for you and the world, what the "future" withholds?...

                                                              - Amun Khot

Open Your Eyes

Open your eyes to the world outside,
where the birds live under the sea.
Open your eyes to the world outside,
the realm of uncertainty.

Open your eyes to the world outside,
where there is no gravity.
Open your eyes to the world outside,
full of lifeless eternity.

...

If you can see what and how you want life to be,
you're living it correctly...

The Last Time The Sun Was Out

Tonight we ride the horse,
the horses of victory,
while light, to us, feels like,
ancient history.

When the last time the sun wan out,
it was even brighter than day,
and we were the only ones out,
out to play.

With the smell of my country,
and the sound of the drums,
we rode to the place,
the place of daily humdrum.

In the darkness of the nighttime,
we go searching for daylight,
where the night is the jailer,
and the day is a lost sailor...
