I believe!

I saw him yesterday

I saw him in my dreams

He was right here

I tried to touch him

I wanted to strangle him.

He was the one who brought deception!
He was the one who brought division!

He looked me in the eye

Staring straight and deep

Knowing that I have caught him

Sigh! I hadn't

Because he rules

Because he deceives

Because he creates illusion.

He makes you sin

Makes you doubt!

He yet again went away

Just like the air or water or the flames

Just when I thought I had him.

But this too was his game

You see he deceived me in believing in him

In foolishly thinking that I had him

In naively trying to strangle him.

But that's okay.

You know why?

It is because I am aware

I may forget about it

I may astray

But my path is given

It is here

It is this

Because

I believe!

Hypocisy yet again...

Today morning while watching news which is a rarity in my case I got to know of something the various IPL (Indian Premier Leagues) imitations. And truly I was disgusted, because I experienced diplomacy / hypocrisy yet again.

As if IPL was not enough to divide us into states. We have now started state premiere leagues some of them being Jharkhand Premier League (JPL), Karnataka Premiere League (KPL), Orissa Premiere League(OPL), etc. Are we not ashamed of ourselves? Isn't this getting too much? Shouldn't we unite and talk about us as a country and not as states, religion, castes, colour, sex and many more.

We want to eradicate the division or bias from our system but we day by day keep adding more and more to the existing list. Is this EVER going to end? Will there be a day apart from winning the World Cup when we will unite as Indians?

In search of answers....
