लहानपण देगा देवा..

 लहान असताना सगळेच विचारायचे 
 तुला मोठे पाणी कोण व्हायचं आहे
 
 पण आज जर मला कोणी विचारलं
 तर मी एकच म्हणीन
 मला पुन्हा लहान व्हायचं आहे

किती निरागस होतं ते आपलं जगणं
ना कसली फिकीर नाही कसला विचार

सकाळचा अलर्म म्हणजे आईची हाक
आणि डोळे बंद होणार तेव्हा रात्रीची झोप

आता तर झोपेचा नाही ठिकाणा 
आणि नोकरी धंद्याच्या ओझ्यात 
सकाळी नुस्तं अलार्म चा सपाटा

मन मोकळं होऊन बोलायचं ते दिवस
आणि मोजून मापून बोलण्याचे हे दिवस

पिकनिक म्हटले की नुस्तं कल्लं
त्या क्षणा मधे बेधुंद होऊन जगायचे
आणि आता फक्त फोटोच असतात 
पण त्यात आपण किती जगलो ते क्षण ?
माहिती नाही

धावपळीच्या या जीवनात आयुष्याचं मूळ रस
निघून गेला आहे
मोठे होण्याच्या शर्यतीत आपण लहानपण 
गमावला आहे

लहान होतो तेव्हा फक्त मोठे पणा ची ओढ 
आणि आज लहानपणाची किंमत कळली

Yes We Can

What is going on today, I had only read in the history books
Up until now

The levels at which things are moving around, was unthinkable
Up until now

The fear, the paranoia, what we are witnessing at unprecedented levels
Was only seen in the movies by our generation
Up until now

But Todays NOW is not just any other day
It is History in itself
And We are very much a part of it

What contemporary politicians will do today
History will judge them tomorrow

Idol Gods have already left the battlefields
And the real Gods are the ones wearing masks in this war
And fighting day in day out to save lives

The Police, The Media, The Bankers, The Government Servants
Are toiling out their to ensure We Do Not Fall

People are dying for real
And families can't even accept the dead bodies
To contain the spread further

We need to understand the Gravity of it

Hence, what WE as people will do today
Will decide if there will be a future
To tell these stories Tomorrow

So Stay At Home.Stay Safe. Hold Together.

There is still Hope. There is still a silver lining.
We shall OverCome. Yes We Can.

Finding Ears

Lot of things pile up inside you
For you don't get people to share

It doesn't mean that you are a loner
But finding like minded who will 
Atleast respect, not share your enthusiasm

Is something of a rare breed 
You will find today

For people will either ignore you directly
Or make fun of it, to hide their ignorance

Though you can't blame them
Nor it is something like vendetta against you

Just that they are not under any obligation
To listen to you 
Or be as excited as you

True emotions flow only when you let them loose
But when people walk away, it does pinch
In a way or the other, that is true

So it is up to us to find the right channel
To share that enthusiasm 
Which will give justice to that adrenaline rush
