THE SILENT STAR........

How it feels looking at a star in the vast sky...?
Out of zillions, staring only one..
The silent night, with dazzling diamonds. Yet so calm and yet so gracefully composed.
So far from reach of this earth. Yet so promising. yet so impartable.
The caring stars, watching the earth. Talking and sharing..
So close, yet so far apart..

My eyes strucked to that one star. Listening to her. Amazed in her soothing, silent
voice. I dont know whether she was a part of any constellation or she was alone
in zillions. But there was something, that compelled me to leave my combative mood
and get fascinated with her twinkling charm. I saw my watch- It reads 01:32.
I realised I have spent more than half an hour standing in my balcony, staring that star.
A zephyr hit my face. I went back to my calculations and questions that actually took
me here in my balcony. I was fighting with my thoughts, quite natural for me. Lots of
unanswered questions love to take a tour through my mind. Now-a-days there frequency
has increased a little with few more IFs and BUTs. Every day we grow a day older. And
they say- "The older, the wiser". But sometime I wonder does WISER has anything to do
with CONFUSION and DISSATISFACTION. The more you grow, more aspects of everything
becomes clear. More deeply we can penetrate in our thoughts. More clearly we come
to our conlusions. But then it create CONFUSIONS. Yes it creates COMBATIVE mood.

Earlier a smiling face meant a HAPPY person. But today I fight to conclude was it
sarcastic? Earlier a sentence used to have one meaning, But today a sentence can have
DOUBLE MEANING. Earlier DREAM meant ALLADIN and CHIRAG. But today a dream has forced
to bear a REALISTIC outlook. Earlier GOOD BYE meant just for today. But today
its more than that. Earlier I wanted to be Hero for my parents. But today I
fight to increase my audience. Earlier ASPIRATION was for HAPPINESS. But today
its less for HAPPINESS and more for materialistic paramount.
Earlier lines were straight. But today lines have become less important than DEADLINES.
Eariler race meant 100m in school sports day. But today every moment is seen as a RACE
to prove.
Today..............................

I closed my eyes. Took a deep breath. Felt the heart-beat.
And again looked at the SKY. That star was still looking at me.
Ohhhh sorry actually
I was mesmerized by the calmness of that star. Took me out of the whirlpool of clashing
thoughts. There was an inexplicable consolation for the fighting thoughts from that
TWINKLING beauty. The inarticulate moment got silent words.
Dont know whether I have grown older or wiser. But for sure, now there are many
more questions in my head. And sometime these speechless STARS help me, not by
answering them, but by making me compose with their calm and silent voice...... :)
