Where two parallel ends can't meet.

Mixed emotions, scattered thoughts,
pondering on a long deserted road...
dont know where to go
dont know how to go
m just walking on the same path.

whenever i think m almost there
i end up clashing with a mirage.
to myself i give false explanations
hopeful words that push me towards my destination.

m pacing down the street with great strength
not knowing how long is the entire stretch
panting heavily i stop by to grasp some breath
not realising that after running miles
m there itself from where i had started.

m still speeding myself up
i'll be still trying hard
i'll run till my feet giv up
but, i knw i'll still be there
coz its a circumference around which i revolve
its an entangled mystery which can never be solved.

Sunshine, not always shines...

Here i see the rays again,
Here i watch the drowning moon,
Here i watch the birds chirping,
Here i see the swings swinging.

Joy overrules the world,
Happiness has no bounds,
There's no anguish no despair
I hear only merry merry sounds.

Walking by the street,
Giving myself a treat,
I saw a hidden child,
Peeping out, with eyes so mild.

He looked at the burger in my hand,
His piercing eyes made me halt ,
My feet froze to the land,
His reconnaissance like an ant.

He gazed at me with hungry eyes,
It was then that i realised ,
That every ray is not sunshine for all,
Every day is not merry after all,
World is full of prejudices,
So many children born without a bliss,
Rotten are the days for them,
So much of distress and mayhem.

I walked up to the child and gave him the burger,
Turned around and strolled down the street,
Wondering about by mood so chipper,
Disconcerted about his sad treat.
