The best way to know the self is feeling oneself at the moments of reckoning. The feeling of being alone, just with your senses, may lead you to think more consciously. More and more of such moments may sensitize ‘you towards you’, towards others. We become regular with introspection and retrospection. We get ‘the’ gradual connect to the higher self we may name Spirituality or God or just a Humane Conscious. We tend to get a rhythm again in life. We need to learn the art of being lonely in crowd while being part of the crowd. A multitude of loneliness in mosaic of relations! One needs to feel it severally, with conscience, before making it a way of life. One needs to live several such lonely moments. One needs to live severallyalone.

I AM STILL LIVING IT AS MY SOUL

Let’s go there today, beyond those inhibitions 
Life has taken so long and yet there is no word
Wait is a good experience only when it speaks 
It sucks when silence forgets how to express 
It might have been your soulful decision once
But it has betrayed you for so long that it hurts
You may not express it, but I, too, share its pain
We had walked together when life had a story 
We are still walking together, trying to rewrite it
I have my words in place, but it is your time now
Come along the words our souls weaved then 
In the worlds where the story had a conscience 
I lived my part and I am still living it as my soul  
You could not but I never felt any inhibition 
It was not that I was strong and you were weak
Probably, words could not fall in place for you 
I knew where our worlds were going to take us 
I lived your questions all along, like my echoes
But you found yourself trapped by inhibitions 
Yes, I was strong enough to see through them
I never asked for your reasons but now I say
Come beyond those inhibitions and reasons 
The story that you left there, is still speaking
