So if I Ask

I believe that we humans think, but nothing of us is made up by our own.

We are consisting the tit bits of all the people we meet in our life, we carry some of their parts and move on to live our life thinking, it is ours but it is not. I am made up of you, you are made up of me.


So if I ask,

Will I be able to borrow your smile

For a while I am not having mine

If I feel hurried

Can I borrow some of your calm

And let go of what is buried

To wait for this time to pass

To be able to break the society’s

Low grade glass.


So if I ask,

Will I be able to borrow your hope

Till I am not able to cope

If I feel lost

In the rumours that

I can’t breach this cage

Made by the one who betrayed

Can I borrow some of your courage

As this soldier is left with rifle of single round

With all the anxiety around.


So if I ask,

Will I be able to borrow your faith

As I have forgotten my pray

If I feel too loud

Can I borrow some of your silence

To hear the whisper of the wind

That it is soon taking me where I belong

If I lose my believe in light

Can I borrow the glitter of your eyes

for my blurred gaze to admire

the dark of these nights.


So if I ask,

Will I be able to borrow your love

'Cause I am not feeling it this time

Nah, I am not here to whine

I just wanna be little hid,

not in a mood to shine

If I feel less alive

Can I borrow some of your life

If I lose my learnings of wrong

Will you stand up and show me the right

‘Cause no matter how much

I believe it all going in vain

Whatever is lost, whatever is denied

Has taken me up, all to my destined gain. <3

Hi! Thankyou for stopping by.

Here we are

A little aligned

And a lot distracted

A little answered

And a lot questioned

A little satisfied

And a lot unsolved

Here we are!

To free ourselves

from ourselves.

Let the posts
come to you.
