An unborn baby's letter to its mother :

Dear Mama,

When stars shine, remember me. When moon glows, remember me. Whenever you look up in the sky, remember that I am waiting for you to call upon me. Dearest mama, remember that even though I am inside you, I want to be cuddled in the same warmth as that of a baby born. My lovely mama, how can I convey my true feelings to you that never for one moment leave me unattended, even after my birth. I love you mama dearly for what you have done for me and I am not sure if I can ever repay you.

But mama, I am scared. I am afraid of being neglected. I don’t want to be ignored. I just want you to be by my side – everyday and every where. I am afraid of being left behind. I want to feel you. I want you to touch me and talk to me. I like it when you do so now, and believe me dear mama, I would love it when you’d continue doing it. Please, oh please mama, don’t leave me at somebody else’s doorsteps; don't leave me at some one else's mercy. Just hold me close like now, when I am much closer to you then anything else.

So mama, when you look up at the creations of God and admire them, remember that I, too, am a creation of God. So admire and look after me. With lots of love and affection mama, remember me.

Your Baby.

P.S. – I Love You!

Thoughts...

4:20 pm / May 04

Too many thoughts
Not enough time;
Too many words
Each worth a dime;
Too much of laughter
Loosing out to sadness;
Too much of emotions
Ending up worthless;
So many options
Such less a time;
So many words
Broken each time;
Life- an empty promise,
Death- the ultimate disguise.

My head bowed in shame.
Even though, I wasn’t part
Of this sinister game.
I watched a handful degrade dozens,
I didn’t know where to look or
What should be my action?

My heart filled with anger.
Those who underwent such disgrace
Were merely our brothers!
Silently they suffered bouts
Of humiliation;
Openly they weren’t allowed
Any recognition.

My conscience cried.
When I saw what they did
Hurt my pride
They are not humans, only
Evil mongers
Who cared about none, blindly
Followed shallow ‘orders’
They say, they were not
To be blamed
Their reasoning inadequate, when
You see the bigger ‘picture’ – it
Sounds much lame!
