Finding the voices
064 It’s all in the mind : Sealed
Sealed
Captured a beautiful thought,
With all the love,
And all the feelings,
Sealed with every strokes,
With every colors,
And more thoughts.
Draining out with every touch,
And it’s all out, captured and sealed,
In a painting.

063 It’s all in the mind : The Awakened One
The Awakened One
Oh Awakened One,
I know nothing about you,
And yet you call me,
And I know not why,
But a strong call,
Calling me,
Again and again,
To give days,
Try a life without any electronics,
To be in silence,
Without any communication,
Away, far away,
I know not what you want to show,
But I hear you,
I know not when,
But I will come someday.

062 It’s all in the mind : The Lion
The Lion
Such anger when it comes to territory,
Roaring loud and wild to establish your domain,
Such pride,…
Forgetting you are already the king,
You are the lion.Such beauty with thick manes,
Charming all on your way,
Such strength,
Only you could be the king,
You are the Lion.
Roaring loud and wild to establish your domain,
Such pride,…
Forgetting you are already the king,
You are the lion.Such beauty with thick manes,
Charming all on your way,
Such strength,
Only you could be the king,
You are the Lion.

061 It’s all in the mind : Fly away
Fly away
Fly away,
Fly away anywhere,
There is no place for you,
Not in one’s heart,
Not in one’s mind,
Not in one’s soul,
Haven’t you heard enough ?
Haven’t you seen enough ?
Haven’t you felt enough ?
Whatever step you take,
You will be the wrong one,
Fly away,
Fly away anywhere.
Fly away anywhere,
There is no place for you,
Not in one’s heart,
Not in one’s mind,
Not in one’s soul,
Haven’t you heard enough ?
Haven’t you seen enough ?
Haven’t you felt enough ?
Whatever step you take,
You will be the wrong one,
Fly away,
Fly away anywhere.

060 It’s all in the mind : The survival race
The survival race
Raised within walls of home and school,
Learning to duck and lie flat to avoid being hit by bullets as a child,
Shipped away from home to get continous education,
With dreams of living,
Away from schools with empty benches,
For the students in uniform are protesting on the roads,
Away from kidnappers,
Away from letchers and rapist,
Away from bandhs and blockades,
To be ahead in the survival race,
For many ends up in the hands with sick minds,
Leaving one as a corpse in one’s own land,
With no justice.
Facing the survival race once again,
Gulping humiliations and mockery,
Questioning identity,
Changing wardrobe to blend in,
To avoid dirty looks,
With aching heart filled with homesickness,
With long nights missing home,
Staying low and quiet,
To be ahead in the survival race,
For many ends up in the hands of sick minds,
Leaving one as a corpse,
Corpse sent back in one’s own land,
With no justice.

059 It’s all in the mind : Take me home
Take me home
Sitting in a standstill traffic,
By the George Washington Parkway,
Watching the Washington monument,
Watching the lone flight in the sky,
Hits me with a pang to be home,
Take me home,
To watch my mother’s morning worship,
To watch my father walking around,
To listen to them fussing over silly matters,
To breathe the same air and see what you see,
To eat the same meal,
To be together,
Just to be with you and you,
Home is where you are,
Oh, how much I miss home,
Take me home.

058 It’s all in the mind : The Stench
The Stench
One sees the white waves,
Giving one an illusion of pureness,
Blinding and fooling one in close sight,
With such bright white waves,
Luring one to jump in,
As one stood mesmerized,
Unsure of such existence of beauty,
Only to find onself sucked in,
Into the rotten black hole,
Filled with stain, stench and disgust.
