WIPED OUT DREAMS!

GUEST POST
A poem by Serene Sarah Zachariah (my sister)



WIPED OUT DREAMS


I lay back down and close my eyes
It has been seven years I realise
The days have passed
The dreams have crashed
I look back again, not in despair
I turn back again, for just a glare
It was a day,my wedding day
Just as I had dreamed, the day would be
Laughter and joy filled the air
Preparations continued with no time to spare.
I looked at the sky with hopes of tomorrow
It smiled back at me without any sorrow
The morning light had filled my room
My heart was glad without any gloom
I looked at my face
And i had began to praise
For the day had come
My wedding day,the most awaited one
I stood there in pure white
And my parents looked at me with pride
Their daughter, oh so dear
Will leave them, in time oh so near
The moment was nearing
There was no point in fearing
Then a sudden phone call
Changed the mood the church hall
In an accident, groom had died
Shattered and heartbroken ,there I cried
I was hoping to go back in time
But the clock had already struck nine
It was evening and I open my eyes
My life has changed, I realise
Old dreams have been washed off
And new ones have taken a loft
Life goes on and there is no stop
More doors will be open
For there is a God, there is much more to happen .

Lost in Two Dimensions

  We gaze at screens, day and night, A world so flat, yet shining bright. Pixels dance, but can’t replace, The warmth of touch, a loved one’s face. No scent of earth, no ocean's breeze, No velvet grass beneath our knees. No taste of rain, no fire’s glow, Just silent echoes, a hollow show. Are we alive, or just a view? A life so crisp, yet missing hue. Step outside, let senses soar, Feel, breathe, taste—be whole once more. # unLearn

To my Dearest Grandmother....

                Cultivating habits like writing a dairy is not a cake walk anymore. Atleast not in this generation where we are all drowning in the ocean of technology. Infact Ayamachi once asked me “ Mole! Ee Phone il entha ullathu? Ellavarum ithu epozhum enthina pidichu kondu nadakunnathu? . Those words hit deep and I realised we are giving more importance to this nonliving man made thing than anything else. Are we carrying the Bible the same way everywhere we go?                     While we jot down our “To Do Lists” Ayammachi has it memorised. There used to be a time when landphones existed  in every house and when she memorised the telephone numbers of her near and dear ones. How many phone numbers can we tell by heart?                   She also has a “Kanaku Pusthakam” where she writes her daily expenses and calculations. She also ...
