PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN?

    Cramming learning and shaking up and down

I leant my roots I learnt all around

I am an Indian I should be proud of that

I should salute the martyr and leaders on stand

They owe us the war, the democracy, the freedom

It’s a tall tale now

We are developing we have overcome

Those were vintage those days are gone

Its India totally transformed

So people are living in new nation

Forgetting the past forgetting the invasion

Can’t you see the war still exist?

Can’t you see we are daily killed?

Killed because we are better?

Or killed because we are meant to slaughter?

When this difference will end I never know?

It’s like earth and sky never meet but show.

Why I chose you?

I dreamt to get my prince some day

Riding a white horse like in fairy tale

Coming close to me, ask for my hand

Changing my life in a shook of wand

But that’s a story it can never be true

I knew it but still my belief grew

I thought about it day and night

And his image is always in my sight

It’s crazy, childish fool you would say

But still I waited for him…and stay

Stay awake every night

Rehearsing my lines every time

I want my perfect man some day

Who takes my breath away!!!

Hold me in his arm and win my heart

That’s total flimsy and absurd

It’s just a kid in her Viking

Building castles in thunder lining

But suddenly I struck by reality

My dreams gone in vanity

I saw love in your eyes……

You are not my prince with golden sword

You are not prefect in my rehearsed word

Still I chose you I don’t know why

Still I loved you, still I missed you…

Tell me why I asked myself

Asking it again n again it might help

So asked this question every time

But my mind can’t answer to mine

I asked again for the last time

To my heart, soul and mind!!!

I got my answer, I got the cause

I got reason why I chose

You may not be the shade I wanted

You may not take me for granted

But your presence, your warmth I felt every time

I feel you and you are mine

You complete me the way I never thought

I dreamt of someone else but now that’s absurd

Reasons are not to be searched for

This is love, you always want more

It never wants any proof, cost and bargain

It’s the divine sense it’s sweet pain

 More you have less you feel

It heals pain without a pill

I was stupid to ask for why

I was stupid to cry

I wanted my prince

I wanted my dream

But failed to see your eyes gleam

Now I know why I chose

It’s because it’s you, without any cause…
