I
" does that mean I am PROUD?
or
it just shows I am STOUT ?"
Her Image asked to her Shadow......
The candlele light kissed her glossy lips,
Slipped down her silky soft skin,
touched the mirror She held ...
Her Image was bright
As it should be of any teenager
A ' Beauty '- defined by the society...
lovely, sweet, charming...
" ANSWER ME "- she asked again to the shadow
who laid still ,void of life, silent.
DARK as the CLOAK OF SATAN
time and again left unanswered
now impatient , bursting with anger
She called it Her EGO !
....( shushsss) ..... blows out the candle !
( NARRATOR) -
*covered in ignorance
Little did she knew
Her shadow over shadowed the sea of loneliness
Brimming with the tear of betrayal ...

"AM I EVIL ? "-
She asked to her image ...
An image , unclear , wrapped in with the cold dark night ,
a little candle flame passing the warmth to the Lame ...
It was a new moon night ...
a night devoid of a natural light ...
hatred lingering in every corner ,
Wetiko knitting cloaks with tears .....
"TELL ME ,AM I EVIL ? " - she screamed out loud...
tearing down the choking silence for once...
her thoughts imprisoned by the
social judgment ,
She wanted to live , but she was to naive ..
She was a fish ,searching for warmth in a frozen lake ...
May be that was her mistake ...
the beasts devoured the lamp !....
She has turned into a book
with her flesh as the cover ,
and her soul as pages with blood stain...
the night rolled on ,
deepening her wounds ,
slowly piercing into her soul ...
Every time with each strike of clock ,
little by little she was scattered up ....
soft cries ! fainter and fainter every time....
the candle light flickered with each cold breeze...
Alas ! Now Yarn ends ,
Cloak is fully made ,
drenched in her blood and sweat....
all She knows now ...
"If no Mirror , then no Pain "

"Mother, who is he ?"
- I asked in a bubbly voice ,
eyes shining with curiosity .
I pointed towards the stage across the road .. A man dressed in bright red,
his hair painted green,
face as pale as the winter moon,
grinning broadly at the noisy crowd..
"CLOWN - that's what he is called sweety!"
I was fascinated....
my little mind wandering in the fantasy land had stumbled upon a sour candy .....
* Mimic him * my mind said ...
and so I did ....
Making my mom laugh
that was pleasant indeed ...
Time drifts down making its way through the memories....
toddling over the hard stones,
breaking through the soft ones ...
Setting it's own way to the eternal SEA .
The child slowly learnt...
it hurts when she touches a flame,
your father is the Santa gifting you the train ,
mixing white and black give u GREY,
words count more when unsaid,
All Smiles are not necessarily the same ...
THINGS remained same but the reasons CHANGED !!!
few months back , drunk on my way home ,
I came across a clown .
He saved me from being run over by a car .
" hey! young man be careful !" -
those words cut through the thick cold blanket of solitude.
but still way too far from hitting my
conscience.
I SMILED BACK AT HIM .
A known reply ..
He took care of the child till grown up me came for it ...
" U may cry now..." - he said
" I won't LAUGH !.... not even a bit "
A STORM WAS RAGING INSIDE ME ,
FACES OF HOWLING DOGS EVERYWHERE .
AMIDST ALL I HEARD A DROWNING VOICE-
just smile !you will b alright .
just SMILE one more time !!!
Not long after that I heard he passed away,
living his work halfway ...
but don't worry my friend ,
I am READY to repeat ur song !!!
The Clown has reborned..
"THE CLOWN WILL RETURN IN NEW COSTUMES TO MAKE THE WORLD LAUGH AGAIN"

***
जीना यहाँ, मरना यहाँ
इसके सिवा जाना कहाँ
जीना यहाँ, मरना यहाँ
इसके सिवा जाना कहाँ
जी चाहे जब हमको आवाज़ दो
हम है वहीं, हम थे जहाँ
अपने यहीं दोनों जहाँ
इसके सिवा जाना कहाँ
ये मेरा गीत, जीवन संगीत कल भी कोई दोहराएगा
ये मेरा गीत, जीवन संगीत कल भी कोई दोहराएगा
जग को हँसाने बहरूपिया रूप बदल फिर आएगा
स्वर्ग यहीं, नर्क यहाँ
इसके सिवा जाना कहाँ
जी चाहे जब हमको आवाज़ दो
हम है वहीं, हम थे जहाँ
अपने यहीं दोनों जहाँ
इसके सिवा जाना कहाँ
कल खेल में हम हो-ना-हो, गर्दिश में तारे रहेंगे सदा
कल खेल में हम हो-ना-हो, गर्दिश में तारे रहेंगे सदा
भूलोगे तुम, भूलेंगे वो, पर हम तुम्हारे रहेंगे सदा
रहेंगे यहीं अपने निशाँ
इसके सिवा जाना कहाँ
जी चाहे जब हमको आवाज़ दो
हम है वहीं, हम थे जहाँ
अपने यहीं दोनों जहाँ
इसके सिवा जाना कहाँ
जीना यहाँ, मरना यहाँ
इसके सिवा जाना कहाँ***
