The Dream


Someday I had dreamt of dancing
With you, in a cold night when it’s raining
To me, as it always seemed very romantic
And the thought of the moment everlasting

But fate seemed to have some other plans
Separating us by distance
Which gave me intolerable pain and tore me apart
And made my dream vanish at a glance

Now that it’s raining, I’m reminded of my distant dream
Which  does not seem in any way romantic
It reminds me of you and the lovely time we had
In the world of love and its charm

Today, I hate this rain
As it brings back the realization that things could have been better
If I had a little more patience and strength
Then we still would have been together.

PS- this poem is 6 months old and I never thought I would actually post it but finally I did :P

Leukemia... Not Just a Disease!

People who have not suffered from leukemia think it is a deadly disease, obviously they’re right and for people who come to know that they’re suffering from leukemia are most of the times devastated, provided they know what leukemia is! And as far as my reaction is concerned…well then I was not in a state of shock because then I just knew I had some kind of a problem in my blood and I did not even know leukemia is blood cancer. It was 6 months after my treatment started that I came to know what Leukemia is…Thanks to my Grandfather! Even then I wasn’t upset much, probably just a bit, as I knew I am going to be fine. For me, Leukemia was never just a disease, when I say never I mean it. It has given a meaning to my life. My stay in CMC, Vellore and my Leukemia has taught me a lot of things which some people fail to learn and realize in their life time. Here are six of my realizations:          There is no bigger exam than LIFE itself - Life is t...

Our Story

Once upon a time not long ago, we were in love or at least we thought so. Our story did not start with hatred, it was simply friendship at its best. Friends we were then, friends we are now, or we just console ourselves by saying so. In between somehow love crossed our paths, and the feeling of first love arose in our hearts. Our love wasn't ever biased or partial, it never had any place for betrayal. Not was anybody ignored by us, but we could not control what others thought. We were sure that our love would last forever, but alas! every story has to have a conclusion. It was a sad ending, everyone said, distance, impatience and I were to blame. Still we continued to fight and talk, the break up never seemed the way it should have been though. Awkward silence always filled the space, Yet we continued to try and share. Our ending always seemed incomplete, I thought, a last meeting is all that we need. Misunderstand...

Dear Hypothetical Kids, For once Moon was your Mother's Muse!

I spent the entire day reading about the once-in-a-lifetime lunar eclipse.  Super Blue Blood moon.  ‘Can the name not be short?’, I thought just like I had thought about my cancer - Pre B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, ten years ago. I saw people sharing the time of eclipse’s visibility in different places.  ‘Ahh, not in India.’ Cool things never happen in India,  sighed the multiple-times-disappointed-kid in me.  But, then. I saw someone share the time of visibility in the metro cities of India.  I googled immediately, ‘Lunar eclipse visibility in Hyderabad.’ I saw many articles describing the reasons behind this particular eclipse being unique. I gave it a thought, not much. I am not one of those moon-watchers, you see. The idea of moon’s beauty brought the idea of longing lovers.  I tried, I tried really hard, to bring together love, longing, and moon. It never happened. But, for a little while, somewhere in my...
