Twinkle Twinkle little star; How I wonder what you are

"I am twinkle, a star..I let myself be, away from the cluster of stars that are moving away at immeasurable speeds. I am bright magnificent, burning within and brightening out. You see me twinkle high up there beside my companions but there are distances between us light years apart. I am alone but I glitter, I shimmer. I am the proud owner of my gas and dust. But 20 million years has passed, and I hear nothing and bear solitude. A little star had zoomed past before that brief time. Tinkle I still remember its name. It had asked me to join it for an adventure across the milky way. A Puny phase of dust I had told him. It was! A dust ball, shining just because it was too near me and I knew it would glow low once it was away. And what for should I lose my shimmer, my iridescent self, I had thought then."


"But for these 20 million years, I stayed and glowed but I thought if my burning alone was worth. My planets, my own children needed me but even they are no more now, and what shall I give life out for, my shine for. I wish sometimes I could zoom like tinkle and travel across these dark distances that I watch in wonder."

"Oh wait! Did I see it? Tinkle!! Is it you again?"


"Hey! Ya I move on and off this orbit, anyways I have to glide away so bye, may the stars of stars watch over you"


"Hey no wait! I am exhausting now, I want to see the world before I run out of my gas. I apologise for being pumped up with pride. I realise now, I am the same gas and dust as you are. We are from the same big bang. Please accept my apology and take me away. Let me see the milky way, let me pass across the darkness around me, take me to light , take me across the quasars about which you mentioned last time. I want to see the universe."


Tinkle radiated back even more than Twinkle this time.
"I forgive you Twinkle, come buddy, shed off the nebulae of your pride and ego, let out your fire and die like a hero through adventures of the space."


Twinkle is still there in the space and lives through the dust that always stays in between those dark distances

The Saint, Sane and capricious Insane



Why you get attached so much to someone. Heart you bugger! You beg for love, don't you?


Doesn't matter if it comes on self, you let your ego slip, you let your respect go in smoke.
You take it all in, you love the hit but it is only for a matter of minutes and then its gone and you now it, pretty well indeed.

Soul! You are mature, but you don't say a word. You murmur, that is why no wonder, 
seldom we listen.

Streaming water, can it be stopped?

O heart!, Stop making excuses to the limit of harm to yourself. You are no phoenix to rise every time you are ashed.

Mind, Please deal with it, put a collar, tie the heart to a pole.

No! Because you see the heart will fall in love with the pole too.

Oh sweetheart, the glowing bug of the night, don't flutter away. The world will cut your wings.

Behold this is heart, I break and bleed but still I beat.

                 And what shall I tell you about me,
                        I am this little girl, born in a small town
                              Grown under the shades of love so profound
                                    Like any girl, pampered with dolls and dresses
                                        And houses made of planks and plastics
                                            With stomach that filled with taste and sleep that lapped in comforts

                                                                               
                                                           And what shall I tell you about me,
                                                Seeing the sunrise facing the dawn
                                       Departing from home in school uniform
                              Reading and writing and grabbing the lessons
                     Budding and building my self-esteem
              Looking at future weaving my dreams


                And what shall I tell you about me,
                      Seeking out a hand that holds on tight
                          A tender comfort in gasping and fright
                             A flight of freedom taking after all
                                  Through success and failures after seeing the falls
                                        That is when tendrils I leave and stand on my feet


                                                    And what shall I tell you about me,
                                     I have seen the world, ruminated a lot
                              What made me grow should have been my God
                        I am not imperfect rather I can’t be
                 Hence I try to aid and heed


                I know that the lessons have been passed on,
                        And I am naive to understand all
                              Yet I am what I can be
                                     My true self for the past and the yet to foresee
