Bharat pal-pal 'roya' hai

I wrote this poem some four-five years back. I've tried to mention how India is suffering from several problems like corruption, illiteracy etc. And I hope you'd like this poem that I wrote when I was in 11th standard. IT was published in Dainik Tribune....SO here it is.....

Aazaad bhale hi ho gya,
Par gehri neend mein so gya...
Sone ki pyaari chidiyako,
Bhrasht mantriyon ne nochliya...
Aise bhrasht netaon ne bharat ke,
Sammaan ko duboyaa hai...
Bharat Pal-Pal Roya hai...
Pyar-Mohabbat ki baatein jahan,
Mann ko moh liya karti thi…
Jahan desh ki shaan bachaane ko,
Striyaan bhi khushi se marti thi…
Chir-Sajag rehne waala kyu ab,
Gehri neend mein soya hai…
Bharat Pal-Pal Roya Hai…
Jiski bhoomi ki godi mein,
Heere-Sone ki khaanein thi…
Jahan desh bachaane ki khaatir,
Yahan Laakhon haazir jaanein thi…
Arbon –Kharbon ke maalik ne,
Kya khoya hai, Kya paya hai…
                        Bharat Pal-Pal Roya Hai…
Jis Bharat desh ki bhoomi par,
Tha veeron ne avtar lia…
Jahan ‘Bhagat’ se veer purush ne tha,
Partantartaa ko maar dia…
Us shaan ko ooncha rakhne ka,
Hamne sapna sanjoya hai…
Par…..
            Bharat Pal-Pal Roya Hai…

She's MINE and I'll get HER at any cost



Every person in his/her life has a love(even some people have more than one :) ). Life seems like a luxurious journey in a first class flight when our love is with us but life becomes a burden when your love is apart. I’ve seen people hiding their love from everyone even from the person whom they love. This is the biggest mistake of their life I’d say, because you can’t afford to keep this feeling inside you and expect to get what you want. Some or the other day you’ll have to come up with the challenge to show the strength and depth of your love.
Someone has beautifully said, “Love is a divine feeling”, I completely agree.I mean I've no reason to disagree.I too have gone through this phase or I should say going through this feeling. But unlike others I’m not gonna keep the secrets inside me. I know she might get some objections after reading her but I’m confident enough that at last I’d be the one with whom she’d be standing in front of the world.
Let me start from the beginning, five-six years back I first met her and no doubt I was ecstatic. I got crazy about her and started to do everything what it took to get her.My possessiveness and determination paid and guess what!! She was with me. She said to me, “Gautam, you deserve me. I can feel your possessiveness and love for me. I’m yours.” I used to laugh a lot in front of everyone with her. I soon realized that people were so much jealous to see her with me. Everyone was in love with her from the very first sight. She was very charming and everyone used to dream of having her with them. But I was fool to react in the way that I used. Instead of strengthening my bond with her I started boasting and slowly changed from a conscious person to an overconfident guy. I thought “there’s no one deserving her more than me”; this was the thought that made my life to change. How fool I was to think of having my ownership over her.
An author rightly said, “It’s difficult to get what you want, but it’s even more difficult to maintain your right for the same.”I was at the top of the world, not realizing that everyone around me was conspirator. No one was happy to see me with her. She warned me but I was still an over-confident chap with nothing to worry attitude. And one day I fought with her badly because she was too much worrying about others. She was very angry and upset at my behavior and of course she should be. That day I was totally unaware of what actually the outcome of my attitude could be.
My life was again going to change soon. Luck of someone else’s was soon going to separate her from me.I was scared, called her but she was busy, talked to my friends but they told that I was no match for her anymore. I was down. I was not even able to inhale the air. We were separate again.I realized that she’s gone, gone far away. From that day to now, she rarely meets me. I’m very emotional by heart. Even today, whenever she meets me I get very much sentimental. Even though I can see her, I can see how far she’s from me, I can feel the painful distance between me and HER, I can realize how valuable her presence was in my life, I can realize that how important is she yet I’m not able to get her back. I’m trying my hardest and I’m determined that I’ll get her back soon. I know it’s tough to get her back after breaking her heart once but I WILL DO ANYTHING to get her back.
I take it as the biggest lesson from life that “never go over-delighted and over-confident after getting what you want, because life is full of examinations, treat yourself as an examinee only and don’t try to go beyond your dimensions”. Today, Gautam is living for two reasons only:


             To make my parents feel happy at every moment of life


And for the very much important REASON:


             To get her back into my life. I want people to call her name with mine.


It takes courage to accept the challenge. And she taught me that behind every challenge, there’s always something special for you.
Today, I can say that I’m not over-confident; I don’t work on intuitions and predictions, I’m being pragmatic,I believe that your strength can be your weakness if you’d lose self-control, consistency in your efforts, determination and most importantly being realistic.My friends say, “She looks beautiful with you and you look beautiful with her”, this strengthens my passion for her. People around me expect more and more from me, even more than my potential.
In the coming lines I’d be revealing her identity, but before it I’d suggest you some things which are actually the learning by me. Guys, never change your attitude towards your love. Your love must be always at your priority, the top most priority. And as I always say that people will break you, shake you, fake you, but how strongly you come up is what actually makes you. Believe in yourself, believe in your efforts, believe in your determination, believe in your potential, believe in the almighty and you’ll be at the destination which always struck hard in your mind.Life is too short to think about others and to waste your time in thinking about what others are planning. It’s your life and only you’d be responsible and accountable for the outcomes you face. Don’t get yourself an attitude which can raise negative powers against you.
In front of you all, I commit that I love her madly and soon my love would get her back for me. She’s none other than “success”. Yes!! You read it right, I love success and this whole story was about her only. You might be wandering and guessing names earlier but my first crush success and I’m not gonna back down without getting her back. This or the other day, I’d be making my parents proud of me and soon Me and My Love would face the world together.
I hope that you might learn something from this experience of mine.Thanks for your time. And remember that your first love should be your GOAL, not Emma Watson or Penelope Cruz :p :D……………
