My sister.... My Other Half..... Chaos all over, midnight.... Woke up startled, in dim light... All uttering softly, I felt fright... Dad came by, hugged me tight... Lullabies for me to sleep overnight... It was morning, that too blight... Can't find mom, again I fright... Dad smiled, it felt like sunlight... Gave me a ride, asked to clutch tight... Holding my hand, without losing sight... There I saw mom, so pale and white... Beside her, something, brought to light... I ran to her, she smiled a bite... Told me, she is your sister, twite... My face gleamed with joy, so bright... I danced with so much delight... Getting a sister was a treasure chest, said my insight... I got a sister to play with, I got a doll to dress her up like "my" doll. Having a sister was like everything to me. She was the one I would play, fight, eat with. It was like I got a friend for a life time who stays with me like forever. Days mostly spent fightin...

It's a myth people say, It's to startle people in a way, There is no heaven for real, as they say, It's all human imagination they would say. Then what about all I see.... The lullaby angels sing, The signs we often cling, The faith our hearts string, The first cry of a whipster, The soothing touch of a mother, The endorsement of a father, The curing hands of a doctor, The gratefulness of the nature, I see all around me Heaven. I need not to die to be in Heaven. But its right in front of me.... What I have to do is change my pair of lens with a new one and feel every smidge of embellishment around me. We as humans are so much busy in casting spell and counting negativity around that we hardly pay any heed to all the lustre mother earth granted us with and all the benevolence our Creator, our Almighty has accredited us with. On earth it is heaven, for sure, yes it is in disguise of every smile we smile and every cry we cry when we...

Dad... I know you are pretty much tied up in your schedules. You have to take care of so many lives around you. I am really proud of whatever you do for the welfare of humanity. Amidst, you always forget that you have a daughter who also needs a smidge of your time. It's OK... You know I made a solution out of that... I write to make myself feel right by your side. This way deep down I hope you are listening to me. That feeling is just enough to cope up with at times. Today, I felt like sharing a word with you, so I am writing again. An imaginary world consumes me when I imagine you laughing out loud even to the stupidest things I blurt out. Daddy, last weekend, was a dance competition at school and I urged you to accompany me and you said, " I will be there for sure sweety". During my performance, my eyes were scanning you all over but didn't show up. The program was over and children were running for their parents, parents were appreciating their kids and e...

A springer..... withered, Unnoticed among its own breed, Desiccating with the ignorance, Never been paid heed to, Melancholic, lost all its lustiness, No longer enamored heedfulness, Arid vanes....painfully kissed mother earth, Slept cannily in nature's venter. Birth.....Rebirth....Reincarnation.... A lustrous springer, This time in a beautiful garden, Shipshapely taken care of, Dancing merrily in the soft breeze, Shindig with the concern and affection. Ultimately the day came..... It bloomed....so gracefully, Leaving behind astonished eyes, With the lustre of its youth. Such a beauty,  That can never be unnoticed.... #AfrinFatima

Ohhh my dear baby.... when you were born, they handed me this tiny person bundled up and you just stared at me, when I looked down at you, that feeling, to see my baby for the first time, just hit me, like I've been struck by lightening. Its love, yes, its love to hold your baby in your arms, its like a bliss from heaven, angels bestowing their blessings upon you. Its an inexplicable feeling one can only feel for their child. In that very moment, I knew, my angel, my life has changed forever. To have you in my arms, in that moment was more than enough for me. It was just enough..... I couldn't probably have asked for anything more...... My dear Angel, from now onwards, I will start waking up your slumbers, sleep your sleep, laugh your laughs, cry your cries and will do everything you will do. I, eventually, find no other option than that as you are my flesh and bones...my life, I gladsomely will do all the chores. I will watch you grow right infront of my eyes and will ...

Oo sumptuous moon..... So far yet so close, So serene yet so bustling, So banal yet so bizarre, Every time I look at your tinge, A feel of tranquility shadows me, Feels like an angel following me, Being my espial.... You light up the trails I tread, Even in the plutonic nights of my life. Yeah.... Being an earthborn, I skittle away all the fortitude I consume, But... You taught me to be sangfroid. You are an out and out mystery, A deep valley of quintessence. Oo Dear Moon, always beholden to you, For what you teach just being you.......!!!!!!  # AfrinFatima                                                        

Sourness, you gave to my heart, Its a lifetime thwack to my head. Something, you were aware of, Delicacy, my heart consist of. You never ever had a second thought, Before thumping upon all dreams, purport. Innocently, you kept hurting me, And me, kept taking it as your innocence. All my yearnings fade away in that moment, When your eyes did hoodwinking each time. You, kept lying on my face, I, denied all that was on your face. Well, you did what you had to, And, I did what I had to. You spewed the poison of your swindle, And I gave elixir of forgiveness for your deeds. Now, you have repentance for your trowel, And, I, all remorseless with eyes swivel. Still, I wear a smile on my face, Atleast, I can fake it on your face!!! #AfrinFatima

Listen daughter: I am saying this as you lie asleep, one little paw crumpled under your cheek and your hair curls stickily wet on your damp forehead. I have stolen into your room alone. Just a few minutes ago, as I was reading my paper in the room, a stifling wave of remorse swept over me. Guiltily I came to your bedside. There are the things I was thinking, Dear: I had been cross to you, I scolded you as you were dressing for school because you gave your face merely a dab with the towel. I took you to task for not cleaning your shoes properly. I gave you that wide eyes look when you tend to be mischievous before guests. I called out angrily when you threw some of your things on the floor. At breakfast I found faults, too. You spilled things. You gulped down your food. You put your elbow on the table. You made noises while chewing your bites. And as you started off to play and I made for my train, you turned and waved your hand and called, " Good bye daddy!" and I fr...
