It all started in class five
My mum said just study this year
And then its all fun n jive
I trusted her, I was so naïve
Didn’t touch the marvels,
Didn’t fly the kite
Class five cleared with super grade
But promise of fun afterwards was there only to fade
She said you are a good boy
Prepare for Class Eight
And then you can enjoy
Poor me cracked eighth board
Volleyball missed me so did videogame chord
I went to my mom n asked where is joy
She gifted me a calculator, this was my new toy
If you don’t want your dad’s wrath
Better go and focus on tenth’s math
Tenth was tough and so was mom
Girl I liked in my class, labeled me a book worm
Slogging payed off, i got a rank
But hopes of fun in college also sank
Physics, chemistry replaced geography history
When will fun begin was still a mystery
PLUS 2 was crucial to save the face
So you must slog in PLUS 1 to build the base
Bunking classes, Talking to girls was a crime
How can would-be-a-doctor waste time
OK. You passed Plus 2, but its not enough
Try for Medical CET. It is very tough
Once you clear it, you are mahaan
Pados waali sharma aunty gave full gyaan
Neither biology helped, nor did theology
Dream of I being a doctor turned a mythology
I was happy, my whole family was in tears
Don’t worry babu, you can try two more years
Prof kept on telling “Biology is science of exceptions”
We closed our eyes..ticked all mcqs based on perceptions
Chemistry was acerbic, physics got physical, bio was always out of scope
Your rank is worse than last year, why did you drop
I can never be a doctor, It was declared
I danced with fun, my life was spared
You cant open a shop or be a bus conductor
If not human, you have to be an animal doctor
Pets are faithful, how can they cheat
With all my efforts didn’t even get a vet seat
I was almost labeled a super failure
A friend of mine came as a saviour
Don’t worry auntie, if he is not capable of being a doctor
I know a thing for losers, they call it agriculture
You dumb guy pay some heed
At least some how get into crop n weed
Slogged my self roting that scientific name
If plants also reject me, it will be a great shame
(....will complete this next weekend)

Gifts Of God

Once upon a time, I asked for a gift
God said granted, now be worthy of it
With all grace she walked into ma life
Made-in-heaven, she was ma would be wife
Her sweet voice, her magical giggles, her mesmerizing smile
It was all magical with her, time stopped for a while
I thanked god, you are so kind
He said no flower without stings, keep in mind
I said to god, anyhow you will always be there
Come what may, I don’t care
He said, listen son, love has a price to pay
If any of you fumbled, love wont stay
You will be tested, you will be molested
I will put you in situations which you hate
You have to be patient, you have to wait
I said but why you do this, you can keep it simple , you are so great.
He said I only have very little of true love,
I can give you dis gift, if you two are worthy of it
I said but after all this happening, what do we get
You will get me forever, if you sweat
You will lose me forever, if you regret
I said what will we do if we fail
He said love is not for weak and frail
I said but we both trust you blindly without a shake
He said then trust in my gift, never let it break
But how long we will have to suffer
Till the moment you start seeing me in each other
Till the moment you start seeing me in each other
