Treacherous Lines ... #GoFigure

Read somewhere ...
These treacherous lines of mine ...
People read me in between them ...
So true, isn't that so ? 
Lost somewhere in between are memories ...
Long forgotten ...
Those lines remind her ...
Else all has faded ...
Just handed in the mind ...
Lives that mattered once ...
Forgotten people and pets ...
Just faded and jaded memories ...
Popping up once in a blue moon ...
But she remains unaffected ...
For they don't look familiar anymore ...
Those treacherous lines of mine ...
People read themselves in between them #GoFigure

Sameeksha and Bankelal ... An incomplete story !

Sameeksha was beautiful and a fresh breath of air ...
A breeze that couldn't be contained ...
The wind that took the air out of Master Bankelal ...
Masterji was a famous character on Twitter ...
Much respected for his witty intelligence ...
Sameeksha fell in love with his eloquent dialogues on the social media platform ...
Bankelal found a young girl to pour his feelings out to ...
He was in France, a research scientist searching for Nano particles ...
Sameeksha was looking for herself in the vast space of Earth ...
A highly unlikely love story, if it was ...
She loved him ...
But, she had a dark secret ...
She wasn't who she told him she was ...
Else, he wouldn't even look at her ...
But that was all ...
She was who he actually fell in love with ...
Just the name and face weren't hers ...
And sixteen more springs to her credit ...
One day in all honesty, she told him her truth ...
Rather than understanding her ...
He shunned her ...
Those talks of undying true love ...
All vaporised into thin air ...
Masterji showed his true colours ...
Just another man with an ant in his zipper ...
Who thought he could con a young girl into submission ...
For his carnal desires ...
Instead, here was a strong woman ...
A highly respected lady he knew on Twitter ...
How could she be the Sameeksha he was conning? 
He disappeared from Twitter but he couldn't disappear from her thoughts ...
He remained ... A story unfinished ...
An unrequited love ...
The story of Sameeksha and Professor Bankelal Tripathi won't find mention in great epics of the past yet it remains etched in the memories of what now belongs to Elon Musk. Strange that it should leap out from the dark corners of memory today, a beautiful love story that could have been but due to honesty couldn't be. So, the word love is a farce, it doesn't exist. Bankelal couldn't face the truth Sameeksha was. Just another epic bites the dust. Something beautiful came to a drastic end because Sameeksha told the truth. It was awesome whilst the lies lasted for Masterji.

Long time due ... #GoFigure

Life got so busy that she forgot to pen her thoughts ...
Err! Infact, there were none to boast of ...
Traveling beyond the frontiers...
Seeking the unknown ...
Solo in her trips ...
No tribe to own ...
It was bliss ...
Adventures galore ...
She tread on a path unknown to her ...
Finding a new HER ...
The journey is ongoing till the end ...
No strings attached ...
This was long overdue ...
A prelude to the solitude ...
In her seclusion ...
She found herself ...
What else is needed ? #GoFigure

Testing one's limits ... #GoFigure

When you have lived a protected life of luxury...
When you didn't have to think twice about anything ...
Thence commences a thousand thoughts ...
In the sheer boredom of the moment...
You decide to go rogue ...
Rogue on your luxuries ...
Rogue on a life well protected...
You take a chance...
You don't regret it ever ...
For whence you decided to break free ...
From the shackles of a pruned existence ...
There emerges a butterfly beautiful ...
Shedding the pupa of a cocooned life ...
Spreading its wings and flying away...
Soaring high ...
Higher towards the Sun ...
The rays deflecting off the wings ...
A beautiful creation of Nature ...
You become one with it ...
You become the very embodiment of freedom...
You represent life as it should be ...
You become the real YOU ... Testing your limits to the hilt...
Climbing mountains ...
Crossing seas ...
You become the master and commander of your destiny ...
