OUR GENERATION VS RELATIONSHIPS


This generation doesn’t want relationships,
We want late lazy mornings with a cup of coffee,
An Instagram post with friends,
An excuse to use the #relationshipgoals.
We invest more time on tinder profiles than knowing people,
All ‘cause we don’t want a relationship.
We talk, we chat, we snapchat, we sext,
But a real relationship doesn’t seem to happen.
We stay awake till 4 am texting that one person,
Still we’re not sure about a relationship.
We like the idea of love,
Just don’t want to “fall”.
We go grab a coffee or a beer,
Anything to avoid a movie plus lunch date.
We want the illusion of a relationship,
Netflix and chill, friends with benefits is the new thing.
The façade of a relationship is appealing,
No one is interested in the work involved in a relationship.
We don’t want to commit,
Our lives are about having fun and chilling.
We are so involved in our social agendas of updating our FB status,
The amazing person next to us goes unnoticed.
We play hard to get,
It never does seem to end.
The problem is that we actually do want relationships,
The commitments just scare us a little………
Enough to keep us at bay…….
Enough to always be thinking, not living.

STAND OUT

Starting out without a grading system, We were children and oh so happy, Rejoiced every moment, it’s form so pure. Being taught knowledge is power, But never did we know what awaits. What if between the pages of life, There was written “As You Wish”? We were not meant to become a leaf on a tree,  But meant to be unique, Meant to be that strange fruit, The one only curiosity can find. We were not meant to reach the sky, That’s where we were to start. Infinity and beyond, Creating ladders with choices unrestricted. We were not meant to fall in like sheep, We were meant to be the brightest star. Creating craters, Touching everything. Being the jack of all and master of none, That wasn’t for us. We were meant to master all. So hold up, think, Would you like to explore endlessly?

LEFT OUT

Craving for attention, Looking to trust. Hoping for better solutions, To the everyday breakdown. The heart and the brain, None with the clue. How to begin? Can anyone be so blue? The emotion incomprehensible, Experience to understand Being left out isn’t bliss. Isolation maybe confused, But your will and their will, That’s where the difference lies. Part of the bloc, are you really? Realizing your mistake, Excess care and love is what you showed. Unbelievable. Yet still thinking, Hope for better or just give up. Being left out isn’t bliss, It’s worse than death. For you live, not alone; But the company of others, Is the reason to live.

MORE THAN JUST BURSTING CRACKERS

The busy schedule of life with exams hovering on our heads and the pressure to create a better future is overwhelming. The craving to get into our hostel beds, for a restful night is probably the most satisfying act at the end of a day. Among all this the phone call from mom makes the day complete. The first time living away from home is tough and thinking you'll not be able to celebrate Diwali with your family. Doesn't that bother you? Being sad 'cause the next day you have an exam, so you let go of all the fun. Although hearing the sound of bursting crackers at night does not make it easier to study. Ah, well the exam is written and the hard work pays off, but do you know what actually makes me smile? It is the package that just got delivered for me. Not just sweets, but the love, care and saudade from my family. That's what's phenomenal. I realize their selfless attempts to make me feel like I'm home, showering me with their blessings, saying we'll b...
