Searching Souls

The other day, I was talking to a friend..we were discussing different religions, different beliefs. Religion is a topic which I have always been inquisitive about. Sometimes I feel that I take my religion for granted..Since the day I was born, I was named to have that religion. I grew up in a conservative home, I was raised in a society were religion and traditions are everything. I’m not religious, and I’m not perfect. I worship God. I pray. I try my best to follow the rules of religion, to stay away from sins. I wonder though..why is it that when we are just born with something, we don't feel its importance? I have seen people convert to my religion, and it amazes me, when I see the way they hold on to religion, how it seems like a huge deal to them. Like it’s something precious they found after searching for so long, something they don’t want to lose ever again .I’ve also seen people who’ve suddenly became so religious. People who turned their whole lives around…How does that happen? What changes? I’ve talked to many people, with different religions..People are so different, yet so similar. Christianity,Judaism,Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism…the world of religion is so diverse. I’ve also talked to a lot of people who follow no religion, who don’t find the need to worship a God…
late last night I was tired. It has been a rough stressful week. I’ve had enough arguing, crying and worrying. This harsh world exhausts me, sometimes dealing with people and their coldness drains away all the energy that I have within me. I turned down the lights in my rooms; I sat down in the corner where I have my prayer mat. I held the holly book and I read. Warm Tear rolled down my face. Not the tears of frustration I’ve been shedding all week..no..tears of relief..the ones which wash your soul. I smiled and prayed God would grant me patience and peace of mind. Just then I realized, that I know that someone was listening to me, someone who watches over me all the time, someone who loves me, someone who grants me my strength, someone who gives me the willpower when I want to give up, someone who forgives me and protects me…Who answers my prayers..Then and There..I Felt His Presence..

Silence Like Stone

Day after day
I try to reach out
You seem to be moving further away each time
Again,I try
It hurts, every time I look into your eyes
Still, it makes me smile
Sometimes I feel that being away
is getting easier
But Then I realize
I wonder why
As each day is passing by
Something’s dying within me
Pain of the heart
Leaving my soul empty
Each passing moment
like I’m left alone
They are all smiling
Sweet reality
I watch the world
Memories of other days
All seem like miles away
Trying to reach out
To anyone, anything
Unable
Too tired, frustrated with this confusion
Out of words, so out of tears
My only way left to cope
Silence
That’s how I deal today my friend
Silence like cold, like frozen stone
And when hot tears roll down
They are healing some wounds..

Keep That Mouth Shut

Stupid people piss me OFF
I shouldn’t be pissed off at them coz I think its enough punishment that God hated them that much TO make them that way


Insensitivity annoys me.
It makes me feel so ashamed that I am part of this human race.
Call me paranoid, call me OVERsensitive.
I don’t care
I just know that stupidity sucks
People are so dumb to the extent that they don’t know when to keep their big mouths shut
Seriously, I wanna scream
Keep that stupid comment to yourself you idiot.
No, I don’t have the answer myself so I can’t answer you
Do you really have to ask that?
Is the answer so important to you?
Do you caaare?

Get out my face then you freak
God damn it
Ok..the last couple of days I have been thinking I’m going emotionally dead
Thank God, now I know I’m not
