Sara- Chapter 1


When I closed my eyes, I realized the hourglass was already full, the picture was moving further away and yet the memory was engraved forever. The Sara I had was a dream and will always remain a mystery for what we could not share. The first time I met her, I thought she was arrogant; knowing her later made me realize that she is actually standing alone on the opposite side of the shore. Getting to know her is like walking on an empty road where there are no bumps but each day is a discovery, sometimes heavy if not understood in its pure essence.  I experienced love finally in an unadulterated package even though it was for a very short duration. There is ambiguity in her simplicity which makes the ride with her interesting. I saw in her my eternal soul mate who is always looking for more, who looks calm and composed to the outer world but is constantly fighting a lonely battle in her head, someone who looks for simple things for pleasure and takes her decisions for that instant. Sara once told me that when she was in 5th standard, a teacher asked her “what is your aim in life?” to which her answer was that she wants to be happy. Very recently she read that John Lennon had said something similar, the fact that she is very proud about!  

We meet new people everyday but very rarely you see your own true reflection in someone else. Very rarely you share your passion, dreams and existence. I found in Sara everything that’s said and a few words unsaid.

"The Shadow"

Sat down by the river side, Happened to see the shadow saying lie The picture was hazy and the light was about to die Not ready to face the truth, I was shy. The day got over but I was hell bound, and the thought kept coming around. Could listen to my heart pounding with a peculiar sound, I was lost but did not want to be loud. The next day was cloudy and it was about to rain, Mustered my energy and went by the river side again, To look out for a new identity and to be sane, Unfortunately saw a lost soul about to be drained. The truth was bitter than what I had thought, But I knew I could fight the situation out, Wanted to forget the past and the callous ghost, Rediscovering the soul looked within the coast. Things were beautiful now and the picture was clear, The roads were wider and the ears could hear, All the eyes were open and there was no tinge of tear, Without a doubt, everyone looked dear. The light was brighter and the belly had a new fire, With an open vision, the destiny was...

"Aarushi Murder Case-An Eye opener"

“Aarushi Murder Case-An Eye opener” What we have witnessed in the Aarushi- Hemraj murder case has been anything but outrageous. The whole case has been an eye opener for the Media and the General public. Media is a very important tool which unfortunately has been misused by the police and the media itself. Each and every Case is being turned into a soap opera as it leads to high TRP’s. Commercialization of the News channels has had an adverse effect on its content. Blaming a Father for the murder of his own daughter is something which is very new to the Indian society. The hearts of an average Indian would not agree to this theory. No one can empathize with the family and the grief they are undergoing right now as it is an all together new territory which hardly anyone has experienced. Though we must respect the investigation by police, the manner in which it has been carried out has left all of us to ponder about the Truth. I was watching the show “We the People” on NDTV and a very in...

"The Sunrise"

Woke up in the morning for a new sunrise, Hoping it would bring some thing to smile. No was the answer from deep inside, When would I see a new sunrise? Lost in the mountains and the crowded lines, Can’t find it in the heavens and between the silver lines, Behind the ocean, in a deep blue sky Raised the sun with the same old sly! There was no cloud in the sky, I was happy and I wanted to fly. Before some one came and said good bye, I was left stranded to clear my eye. A new beginning was in my mind, Though my sight was at the hind. Was there any one to read between the lines? Not ready to give up, hope was my pride. The sun rose again with a different shine, Without being somber, it tasted like a wine, Came out with it a new lease of life, Oh my god I am on a high. The sun is now with a different light, So I’ll try my best to keep it alight, Would never give up and keep up the fight, Before it goes out of my sight!
