Dusk

Soon the sky was covered
With duvets of stars, flickering out of clouds
And the gleaming moonlight
Halt to calm bright sunlight

The birds high,
Surfing the ocean of clouds
Turns back to shore
On the trunk of oak.

The diminished lamps 
along the avenues
Enlighten with faith to overcome
The darkness of darkest night.

And there along the same street
Were the lonely hearts
Pumping the oxygenated blood
Tasteless of love.

Few of them were broken
While few were on its verge
They wish to stay in dark
Where inebriation is a urge

Who are they without their name?
It's nothing, just a game of fame
Whosoever will survive from dusk to dawn,
Will own the heart and the crown.

Soon the bizzare sun will rise
Fading the miniatures stars
The devil mind will laugh
Over the helpless sinking hearts...

The girl i met on train

She wasn't the only pretty girl I had ever seen. And no doubt she was too pretty than others. Her dark eyes loaded with purple shades drowning into greens. While small nose with big tip ends around her big cheeks creating dimple when she smiles. All around her, red glossy perfect lips she wore on face turning down. Her dense hair were curly a bit, pleated down in a pony tail binded by round pearls in an elastic. The peacocks feather shaped earrings curated with metal painted bronze and beneath it connected eight pearls, smaller than that of hair ribbon she tied. The earring hanging down her ears gleamed her beauty letting the taste of moonlight fail. The curls escaping from her forehead, hiding imperfections of her face. Down her face over neck she wore a garland of black beads woven down in thread to which a pink butterfly is attached symbolises her beauty. Like all girls pink seems her favorite too. The top she wears was alluring and around the arms of which pearls are stitched...

Mythology

According to Hindu mythology, If you commit any kind of crime/abusing/discrimination you will be directed to hell after death.  Hell : A mystical place where your soul will be tortured based on your sins. Torture punishment is different for various sins like they will keep you starving if you denied food to somebody or they will let you born with disabilities if you harm anyone physically. There they give special services like frying in oil or body massage with intense pain.  Well the point is I don't believe in any of these psychic theories. This is the religion(which I've observed) which doesn't give male and female equal status. Men are always shown dominating in front of female. For instance, it is mentioned in garudpuraan they female must worship her husband and always listen to his decision, she'll fall asleep after her husband and will wake before him. And if women disrespects her husband she'll go to hell. My question for the society is "if the female i...
जब राज़ हो दिल में गहरा हर ज़ख्म पे यादों का पहरा जब मंज़िल ने भी मुंह फेरा यारों ने भी आशियाना छोड़ा। जब आसूं भी बह ना पाए नज़रों को भी मिला ने पाए जब लफ़्ज़ों ने भी ज़बान ना हो कम्बख़त इश्क़ भी अब साथ ना हो। बस हंसी भी ख़ामोश रहे हर दिन में रात ढले मन में कुछ बवंडर सा है अपना जो था आज़ पराया सा हैं। -Praful Maheshwari
