A kid who loves smiling

Boys, it seems, have a natural inclination towards cars and bikes. The small boy in our home who cannot utter words clearly remains awestruck everytime we go for a long drive. He remains so occupied with cars that he does not wish to return home. We take the longest roads and travel few extra kilometers just to appease him and his love for cars. The dry diaper keeps him dry and happy which is amplified by the beauty of cars and bikes. As he is growing up, his mischievousness is growing too and it takes extra energy for him to remain active all the day.  Not only the nutritious food but also a dry good night’s sleep is necessary for him. How can he learn without making mistakes? We give him space to commit mistakes and learn from them. This liberty makes him smile everytime he breaks his favorite toy.

The smile of serenity in the morning when he gets up can brighten up anyone’s day! It authenticates the fact that the dry diaper has provided a sound sleep to him and he is ready for the day’s battle, once again. Playing for hours during day is his hobby and everytime someone catches his attention, he smiles innocently at him. He is learning the art of loving. He loves meeting people and being in their embrace for hours. The new people enlighten his face with a bright smile as he chuckles giving way to his cute dimples. He can enjoy the warm embrace of the loved ones without getting disturbed by nature’s call.







Kids these days are couch potatoes. When I was of his age, I could not even watch clock but he is one hell smart kid. He knows exactly when his favorite cartoons are to be aired. He takes a diaper and reaches for anyone he can just before his cartoon serial is about to start. He wants no distraction and watches his serials peacefully with remote in his hand, giggling and chuckling. His dimples dig deeper when he smiles while watching television. His laughter echoes inside the walls of our home and binds the whole home in a tone of happiness.

If not appeased by his mischievousness and cartoons, he loves listening to the latest Bollywood tracks and also tries humming them. He has an out of the world smiling expression when he starts grooving to the party tracks. One thing that upsets him is water, may be that is why he loves the dry diaper. However, as soon as he is out of his bath tub, he is back with his smile. May be he loves smiling as I rarely see him crying. He is an observant and every single thing he observes makes him happy, even the small ant travelling to its haven curves his lips and makes him smile. A baby’s smile is enough to fill the ambience with positivity.

17 Missed Calls

"When you kissed me the last time and we, or at least I, didn't know that it was the last time, I didn't kiss you enough. I thought I had a lifetime to do so, I took you for granted. Then, I used to think that it was my faith in our love that makes me believe in our forever, but, we all knew about the inevitability of ephemerals. I wish I would have, everytime, kissed you like it was the last time. That way, may be, it would have had hurt less when you left, may be I would not have had regrets of not loving you enough. Now, that we look at each other and feel nothing, I yearn for the part of me you took away with you, and, left behind a bottomless abyss of emptiness. To say, I felt empty, curling under my blanket, pressing my palm against my face and wailing in agony to not let any part of my reality escape the little world I had created under my blanket, far away from the real world. The real world didn't please me anymore, for there was no you in it. But, this emptin

Slut In Your Eyes!

Don't talk to me about the stars I'll tell you how real darkness is I don't believe in your kind of love I have traded my soul for peace Spent nights in arms of my ephemerals Woke up alone to sunrise I opened myself up like a book To be loved for a night. I have been loved so wrong In wanting to be loved right Like a hotel for travellers on a lonely road Nobody to stay here for a longer while That's how I survive this life Being a slut in your eyes. More power to the all the sluts Who are deeper than breasts and butts You have been judged and tagged And still live like you don't care But, when night envelopes the sky And you try try and try You crawl for that love, for that guy Who leaves you in the morning to just cry Wearing a makeup to hide everything And being mocked by filthy beings Nights to days, days to nights Hoping and believing guys' lies But you, my slut, shouldn't be the one to cry Paying a price, suffering and hu

Demons, As They Rise Again!

Tonight I'm again sinking in myself, Seeing my life turn to ashes. My face wears a blanket of calmness, And soul depreciating with turbulence. Tonight, again my mind is getting louder, I feel like being ripped off my shelter. I'll walk the alley that leads to the end, Take a U-t urn, before the final descent. Tonight again I'll cry till my tears are dry, Like a lifeless heap of flesh n blood, I would lie. The pain of living in every breath I inhale, Giving up on life with every breath I exhale. Tonight I would again want to slit my vein, Perhaps hang myself or jump to ease the pain. I am letting the demons overpower me, Too weak to fight, I am succumbing. Tonight it's going to be dark and obsequious, But, I'll make it through, like I have been doing for years. Although I feel I like I shouldn't try anymore, Yet, I know that I am worth fighting for! Tonight again it's a battle in my head, Either way I lose, part of me will be dead. Not t
