HibernationLetters (inspiration)

वसुधा

मैं पृथ्वी हूँ
मैं ही आकाश
मैं ही धरती हूँ
आग लगा कर
जल से बुझाने वाली
मैं ही हूँ
मनुष्यों के नए नए
अविष्कारों से परेशान
अपने मतलब के लिए
इस्तेमाल करने वालों से
मैं दुखी यहां रो रही हूँ
ये मेरे ही आँसू
बाड़ का रूप ले रहे हैं
इन्हें ज़िन्दगी देने वाली
और लेने वाली भी मैं
पर फिर भी इनकी नज़रों में
बुरी हूँ मैं
है एक शर्त इस बार मेरी
गर ये लौटा दे मुझे मेरी पहचान
तो इनकी धड़कने बक्श दूँ मैं...
~Auldrin

आजकल का नया दौर

आज कल के ज़माने में
ये नया बदलाव कैसा
एक ओर हमारी माएं अपने
बहादुरी के किस्से सुनाती हैं
और दूसरी तरफ से वें हमें
घर बैठे बैठे खुद को बचाने
की तरकीबें समझाती हैं
खुद वें अपने जुड़ो-कराटे
सीखने की कहानियां बताती हैं
मगर हमें सिर्फ कपड़ो की
लंबाई का ज्ञान देती रहती हैं
क्या हाल किया था उन्होंने
उस लड़के का जिसने एक नज़र
बस उन्हें देख लिया था
पर हमें वैसे ही लड़कों से
छुपकर चलने को कहती हैं
आज कल के ज़माने में
ये नया बदलाव कैसा
जहां माएं हमें हिम्मत ना देकर
डर डरके जीना सिखा रहीं हैं...

HibernationLetters 30

Dated-28/01/2018

For past couple of weeks every Sunday morning I have been going for walks on the empty streets of the Kolkata station. Perfect winter mornings with a cool breeze apt enough just to make your nose tip cold. There is a place where one can stand and see a long road, wide open, nothing filling that void. You stand there and just breathe. Breathe till every single cell in your brain wakes up to think. Then think about life and how amazing it is to be alive. To live another day inhaling the fresh air. You realise there is a destination. It might be a peregrination but in the end you will be relaxed.
Good morning fellas!

Till here all this was almost half a year ago...
Now
Today...

When I found this piece again I was overwhelmed by the thoughts of what I'd planned then and how much things have changed since then.
I am a little scared to tread forward but excited as well for the new journey of my life. Though everything is still uncertain yet I'm hopeful to find what I've always been searching for.
We all dream till life takes its turns but I would say nomatter how our lives turn out to be, we should never stop dreaming high.

Dreams make us an optimist!
They fill us with such positive energy that we are always ready to fight.
Like I am here fighting for myself and I know soon I will win for sure!

P.S. Always remember, time and patience does wonders!
Smiling beautifully

In the past couple of days, I'd say “Life” happened to me!

Yes true.

A lot of things have changed. Some plans have changed. I on the other hand am the same, I guess so.

I've met so many different people telling me variety of stories or their experiences or how one fine day they realised to do what they are doing right now.

I met with my high-school biology teacher, who happens to be one of my favourite people.

For a while I thought meeting her would be a different feeling but I was wrong, we both started again from exactly where we left off 7 years ago. Ofcourse we came across our own ups and downs but we still share the same level of insanity.

I met someone ‘new’ too. Just for a couple of days only. Actually old only but I'm stating as 'new’ because now I really got to know the person, years ago we wouldn't have crossed each other's paths as we had completely separate worlds. We still do maybe that's why the meeting was for hardly any days.

My parents and I, nowadays have stepped into another level of discussion. Talking our hearts out, our perspectives, my future and what we really want to do.

I have been so busy, like literally busy with my own self, thinking about everything that happened to me just in a matter of two weeks, I'm awestruck!

I have taken upon new challenges which are scaring me a little but deep inside I am feeling nothing.

There's a void! No person, no thought, nothing is filling it up. It's just emptiness.

I'm eagerly awaiting for something which I have no clue about. It's confusing as well as strange, for I forgot I had a blog, another place to write some verses, I simply forgot I have quite a few readers waiting desperately to read what I surprise them with.

Honestly, is it normal?

Being so preoccupied that one forgets a totally different world that exists somewhere in between the crumpled pages of an old journal.

I am soon going to change the pattern of these hibernation letters because I am no more under hibernation.

My name means Earth but it's time to see the world outside this soil and come out as a tiny twig of any plant.

I'm just afraid not to be crushed by any random footsteps while I embark on this new journey.

P.S. I promise that I'll still be here, always & forever!

The rains are here as a blessing

so I am out of this hibernation

emerging out of the damp soil

in the form of a green incarnation…

Auldrin

I'm still here!

Joey (Friendship day '18)

Happy Friendship Day ‘18

Wouldn't it be nice if we all could have a Joey in our lives?

The one always giving the rest of the group a laugh.

The one who makes a joke of himself to make his point right.

The one who would eat the crappiest thing you ever cook.
The one who would pamper you, change a part of his own self to take care of your needs.

The one who loves you with his pure heart.

The one who gets you buddy bracelets.

The one who would neither leave your side nor let anyone else enter your palace of boxes.

The one who is everyone's best friend.

Finally the one who would turn out to be the smartest in times of crisis like saving you from a heat stroke.

Could you remember each of these moments?

That's what I call a true friendship!

So friends,

How you doin😉

Auldrin

P.S. For the fans here are some snippets!

HibernationLetters 28

I have been writing for so long that yesterday I didn't want to anymore.
While going through my sister's FB page I found this beautiful picture and thought about you first all over again.
I realised it's not over, not just yet!
So here I am with this poetry and a mesmerizing view, only for you.

Can we start afresh?
From the day we first met
to the midnight conversations.
This time not pretending
but being ourselves.
Not talking too much either but
staring into depth of each other.
I let you be the way you like
and you treating me just right.
Your fingers run down my spine
pulling me closer in no time.
I lock myself around your waist
caressing your skin with my lips.
You strongly arm me to the wall
moves rhyming, song down the hall.
And when finally the sweet nectar
is mixed with some salts, our souls
connect through an art reborn.

Hope you have a delightful weekend!
Auldrin

P.S. The picture is taken in Kauai, Hawaii and you see a couple sitting, that's my brother and his wife. He set a camera on a tripod with a timer and this master piece was born. Amazing isn't it?❤

Don't judge me!

HibernationLetters 27

12 months ago on this date I decided to stay back in the city.

For you.

For me.

For the love.

More than 18 months ago you had set your WA status as “257 days to go”.

Signifying the number of days left for my departure. Clearly I didn't leave on the set date.

You've been so preoccupied with your ownself that even now your status remains the same.

Unchanged maybe because you didn't miss me anymore or you simply forgot just like the rest of our story.

But today my status says “you left”, finally!

No no, I didn't change anything. It's a courtesy by the app developers on their own. If any user isn't using the account for consecutive 90 days, they simply treat them as 'deceased or absconded’ and automatically shut the profile down.

Yet I'm in a dilemma, with my feet being in two separate boats. Of which one is carrying our memories and another my griefs.

I'm afraid to put both of them into one, as they are equally devastating.

So I have decided to stay afloat in the ocean of my tears, till I'm cold and lifeless.

Back into the nutshell…
