Sensible

If something or someone is
getting on my nerves to an
extent that I cannot bear it.
I simply drift away from
that thing or that person.

Not everything/everyone needs
a reaction from you. They might
as well be doing whatever they’re
doing just to get on your nerves,
so that you can lose your calm.

Be a better and sensible person.
Don’t lose you calm and peace
of mind in such situations.

We Grew Apart

So many people, whom I
used to talk to all the time.
So many people, with whom I
used to spend so much of time.
We treat each others like
complete strangers now.

The sad is part is, nothing
went wrong between us.
We simply grew apart.
We grew so apart, that now,
it feels like we never
even knew each other.
It’s like we never even met.

Doomsday

If people will get time from hating each other over religion and language, and if they’ll actually start thinking about the things out there, the voidness out there, the fact that earth is like a dust particle out in the space and that you don’t even know what’s coming for us, they’ll finally be “woke” af. You never know when a big ass asteroid will come and wipe us all out like it wiped out the existence of dinosaurs. If you look at the sky at night, and think about these things you’ll get chills down your spine. But here we are, in this god forsaken world, where people kill each other in the name of religion, which doesn’t even matter, because when this world will end, and it will end someday, it won’t matter what religion you follow, what’s your skin color, white, black or brown. Nothing would matter because nothing would be left. We, humans, are like dust particles if compared to the size of earth, and earth is like a dust particle in our milky way, and milky way is like a dust particle, actually we can’t even guess size of milky way because space is infinite. If people actually start considering these facts, this world will become a happier place to live in. When I lie down and look at the stars at night, all I can think of is that how lucky we’re, that we’re all alive here, how lucky we’re that we live in a planet which is placed at perfect place amongst all the other planets, which makes it the best place where life forms and flourish, but then I also realize that we’ll be the doom of this world, humanity is it’s curse, because no one cares about the nature. We’re killing our nature, our water bodies, this world where we’re supposed to live and let our future generations live. I sometimes ponder, how is this world going to end? Will it be us or something from the outside? To get the answer, all we can do is wait. Till then, breathe, live and let others live peacefully.

Spectacle

My vision is blurry.
I can’t see properly
without my spectacles.

But I still choose not
to wear my spectacles.
For the spectacle I get
when I wear my spectacles,
is of a world filled with
hatred and inhumanity.

Void, I feel, a little more,
every time when I see
where this world’s heading.

Oscar Wilde.

Oscar Wilde once said,
“Each man kills the thing he loves.”
I never used to believe that.
Only when I stepped into adulthood.
I understood, how right he was.
Today, I’ve mastered the skills,
Of killing my own dreams.
– “Each man kills the thing he loves.”
– Life.

Change yourself.

I am just a being, trying to be human.
Baffled, amongst whom, I’m living.
Animals or humans, who is more sane.
Atrocities of humans are making me sick.
I can hear it, in this silence, the clock’s tick.
It’s not too late, o ye homo sapiens.
You’re still not worthy to be called humans.
Do not try to become a god,
Do not try, for you’re not.
Live and let others live.
No, here, there’s no intended pun.
I am just a being, trying to be human.

– Change yourself.

Sabotage.

A toxic relationship.
Bringing unhappiness.
Malevolent humans.
Driven by enviousness.
Away, you need to stay.
From such humans & relationships.
Burn the bridges.
You must’ve heard this, from many.
I say, why burn it?
Destroy. Sabotage. Extinguish it.
To bits and pieces.
Completely. So that the world,
Would see, what can you do,
If they try to hurt you.
You are what you are.
Do not restrain yourself.
Be. What you are.
Do. What you want.
You only live once.

Different.

It’s a hard world to be different in.

Why is it so hard for people to accept other people the way these other people are? Why can’t uncanny be considered beautiful? Why does a person, who’s different, has to be treated as a cast out? Why can’t that different person just stay different and be happy? Why can’t Y’all just let that person be, what that person is?

Stop judging. Stop hating. Stop trying to control.

For the love of God. Just stop.

– Live and let live.
