Its all a mystery



Today we learn, tomorrow we might forget
Still we learn, learning is a mystery!

Today we cry, tomorrow we might laugh
Still we cry, grief is a mystery!

Today we write, tomorrow we might erase
Still we write, writing is a mystery!

Today we speak, tomorrow we might regret
Still we speak, speaking is a mystery!

Today we fight, tomorrow we might patch up
Still we fight, fighting is a mystery!

Today we bless, tomorrow we might curse
Still we bless, blessing is a mystery!

Today we help, tomorrow we might step back
Still we help, helping is a mystery!

Today we enjoy, tomorrow we might be low
Still we enjoy, joy is a mystery!

Today we love, tomorrow we might dislike
Still we love, love is a mystery!

Today we live, tomorrow we might die
Still we live, life is, itself, a mystery!!!

It was another hot April evening when I was going back home in a Churchgate Slow. The ladies compartment in which I was travelling was noisy and entertaining, as usual. Bhelwalas, Clipwalas, etc. were trying their best to convince the “easy-to-convince gender” to purchase their stuff and fill their pockets. In a few minutes since I entered the train, there entered a young man with a boy (supposedly his younger brother). The man had a musical instrument which I had seen in Rajasthan some months back.

Par kuch baat zarur hai in sooni raaton me, thande pattharon me bhi kahin ye aag jaga jaati hai..

The lost thread..

Now I know not what love is,  where it comes from and where it leads to,  what it gives and what it takes,  what it creates and what it destroys,  I know not how love happens and how it rehappens,  now I know not how a special touch feels and how beautifully it heals,  I know not how much somebody's smile can matter, and I know not how, without love, lives can shatter,  I know not how people can be boundlessly selfless and unsound and how love just makes the world go round and round and round..  now I know not what it means by love,   to me, it all seems to be like a sweet old fairy tale..
