Happiness is within

Unless invited you’re incited!

Solace isn’t in solitude

Solace is in seclusion from desperation!

@Rajani Mula

Regression is an abyss of death
No wealth or warmth can rescue
The soul from this pit of shame!

@Rajani Mula

A smile I wore like the dress I wear
Behind the smile is pain unseen
A smile that is a paint of mirth
A smile that seems an art of birth

I coloured my lips with a smile soothing
Though it isn’t soothing my sinking soul
Though it isn’t able to tear my agony
Though it isn’t anymore beautifying my beauty

I lit a light of happiness in my eyes
Though they are in the mine of grief
struggling to stop the stream of tears
Though they are blind to light of joy

Lips complained pain of false smile
Eyes refused to obey my order
Yet my hurt heart teaches me to smile spreading joy
Saying that it is still alive though the pain has pierced it
My artificial smile impresses hearts many
Unreal light of my eyes glorify lives many !

Though nothing is real, they are believed true
True heart is yet hurt feeling its unreal!
@Rajani Mula

Never bestow permanent feelings on a person temporary !

Mobile love

Acquainted to the apps world
A smart world in hand
Not less than a dream world
Prefer to buy gadget brand
A modern techno wand
Possessing one is prestigious
Advantages ofcourse are grand
Yet progress of youth is suspicious

Hold it in hands day and night
The very thing we touch on wake up
Chats and chuckles it brought
In a jiffy we do friendship and break up
Fancy of taking selfies in close up
For likes and comments we get ambitious
This achievement we boast summing up
Concentration on studies is suspicious

Call on phone is important than person in flesh
Addicted to text even to unknown
Improve relations on phone forgetting rest
Unknowingly watch even prone
Can spare many hours all alone
Become victims to acts seditious
Joys innumerable gives this phone
Yet progess of youth is suspicious

Discipline and politeness is blown
Threatening is their attittude rapacious
Prefer to live in the world their own
Progress of youth is suspicious!!

Time, trust and tenderness are so precious to be showered on one who doesn’t know the worth of them!

Repeated repention is reception of rejections and reductions to recreations!
@Rajani Mula

Light that belittles your shadow isn’t eternal!
Trust not the light that elevates your glory which isn’t even eternal!
Follow not the light which doesn’t let you be yourself!
Fear not at the darkness that doesn’t let you see yourself!
Be with yourself to know your inner self
Grieve not at anything that abandons you!
You are with the best person in the world as long as you are with yourself!
Celebrate each occasion, pain too can’t pain you till you let it paint pain!
