Karva Chauth Blues!

Image
It is Karva Chauth tomorrow and I see people all around shopping, applying hennas on hands and visiting beauty saloons and then it strikes me that I will never happen to be celebrating this beautiful tradition! Sigh! All my dreams since childhood gets shattered! I hate my boyfriend at such times! (obviously who is not a Punjabi!) Didn't half of the girls in their teens want to get married to a Punjabi? Well I did for their grand weddings and the churas! Love them!  Oh ya for all those who don't know, The Karva Chauth is an old tradition followed mostly in northern parts of India. The married women fast the whole day without food and water until they see the moon and pray for their husbands long life. Sweet thing no? But I see this fasting becoming a fad now. See around and you'll find all girlfriends fasting for their boyfriends/ crushes. And thanks to our very own YRF and the idiot box we have our husbands under pressure to fast for their wives just like SRK did!

Titleless!

I took chances, once too many a times Always dreaded this would happen Being left alone to burn, Am sorry for what I have done. I never wanted to lose the friendship over an inner crisis Wish our love could sustain my madness Not cramping your heart with sadness. Now you stand there on the other side Watching me tortured with glee Why don’t you hear my hearts screaming tones? Death of my brittle bones? My soul’s fractured moans?! I feel afraid and cold Trapped behind these walls My sobs are the only sound Why have you hidden me from your sight? Losing you is my worst fright Why don’t you want to hear me? I long to tell u how I feel Why can’t you hear the echoes of my heart cry in pain? Hurting you was my only fear, All I want now is you near! Tell me what can I do to make this right? To live my dreams true, To create warm happiness? To let my soul breathe with freeness? To make you love me back? For eternity?                                       -PS

The Uncertain Distance

Traveling a thousand miles, to bring back my smiles. The trouble, the pain, will all be worth the gain. The heart being gripped by uncertainty, the wait feels like eternity. Our hearts knitted with each other, to face the struggle together. Our love will pass the test of time and then you’ll forever be mine!         -PS
