When Loneliness Strikes..

God hath given you one face, and you make yourselves another.
                                                                               -William Shakespeare


Given the world with many people.. some varied, and some stereotyped.. But yet that one moment when from the entire universe you feel detached..

..And that is when Loneliness strikes..
Some call you a lonesome victim, some call you maniac depressive..
And sometimes, what others call you doesn't make any sense,nomore.. for you are in captivity of dicey situations like Schizophrenia, Split Personality, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder..and the list is endless..

Its good to be out of the crowd.. Its not good to be out of the crowd..
Its good to be different.. Its not good to be different..
..Such questions and situations never abandon us..
DO THEY?

When there are people in this very same world in which YOU live.. Who suffer from sick things called Necrophilia and addiction to BDSM.. 
..And you called yourself weird, eh?
When there are people in this very same world.. who can kill their very own family.. who have homicidal tendencies.. & you thought you were the one who is pathetic in life?

When there are people in the world, who literally still practice incest.. & you thought, you don't deserve to live?

When there are people in the world, who are sadistic.. & you thought, dying is the only option?

Instances maybe endless.. people may get it or they may not..
But deciding the verdict aint our task!
The Almighty has created an individual with a purpose.. & serving it should be one's sole aim..
When loneliness overshadows you.. think of what makes you sustain.. the reason.. 
When you think of letting go..wonder why did you hold on to it this far?

The quote by Shakespeare at the commencement of this post says it all.. Realize your worth, utilize it, live it.. do it!
And when loneliness strikes?

.. When Loneliness strikes, Fall in love with yourself..
That's the best you can do...
To you..
To the ones you Love..
To the Almighty.. ||

Dark is the way..Light is a Place..||

When Dark meets the Light

They say that the time between 3.00 am - 3.30 am is not good. Maybe because of the formulation or the belief of the power of the Anti-Christ!

But this time seems nothing bad.. Atleast not being in my shoes.. Having visited a nearby  Cemetery over here at such an odd hour of the night..

Dawn- That shall be more appropriate.. 
For, the sky looks just like this right now-

So, a cemetery is all what suggests the end..

The Ultimate..||

The graves do make you wonder, that- Is the belief of the Egyptians to have "Life after Death" really true?

If it were so..

Then why this Stillness?

Why no voice?

Why no whisper?

Why no soul?

Why no EXISTENCE?

Why N-o-t-h-i-n-g?

Maybe.. because its just the Other Side..|

Which one can't "see" .. unless, there we "be"..

And then, there is Fear..||

But what is it that we fear?

Death?

Ghosts?

Loneliness?

Futility?

... I believe.. we must fear ourself!

What does it feel like.. to have your own soul, your very own shadow turn against you?

I wouldn't really like to bring in the theories of Matter- Anti Matter..

But its just something else..

How would it be, when you can see your own negative self in front of you, trying to suck away your darn life out of you?

.. WE are all sinners..

And we know this.. very much.. deep down under..

No matter how.. No matter what, we do..

Be it just a lie we tell, a betrayal we commit..

A pain we give.. Or just hurt someone..

Not even for someone's good..that's not how one can defend one's opinion/thought/idea about life..

Noone can decide for others..

Who gave us that right?

And who defines R-I-G-H-T-E-O-U-S?

No Human Being can..

Because, we are among those.. who has a demon  as well as an angel residing in us.. Its imbibed in us ever since our birth..Though, Empericists say that when we are born.. our mind is a "Tabula Rasa" meaning blank sheet of paper..But me, being a moderate empericist, cannot defy the ideology of the Rationalists either.. that we "do" have some Innate ideas.. ever since our birth!

And hence that angel and demon are always playing hide and seek in our minds.. ever since we come into existence..

It just varies .. which is more dominant  and when?

But then.. there is also something, that binds us all?

What is that?

LOVE?

No..

Love is just too much secretion of the Oxytocin..

The need and hunger for survival, binds us all!

Wearing the masks, playing in the stage called LIFE..

Nothing but a Masquerade Party.. where we all are something else underneath that joyous piece of attraction..

Something else from what we portray ourselves to be..

Beneath the Layer.. called "Lies"..

Ever wondered?

How and what it would be to stand in front of the mirror and have your own reflection NOT follow you anymore?

How would it be for your reflection to not behave the way you do? Not follow the commands of YOUR existence?

Because, you believe it or not..

Dark and Light.. go hand-in-hand..

As, we have both of 'em IN us..

The Demon( Dark).. The Angel(Light)..

And just when the Dark meets the light.. a new life blossoms into existence.. & The moment they are apart..

That is when "we" depart..

...... So, Dark is the way, Light is a place!

Do think about it..

Maybe, only then..

You can Reconcile the violence in your heart..

Recognize that the beauty is not just a mask..

Exorcise the Demons in your past..

Satisfy the undisclosed desires in your heart.. ||

And Readers, if you didn't get what that meant..

Just see this-
