CALLING IT A DAY - Ayush Kumar Choudhary

I set out on a journey for you,
To find you among the rest,
But things got unclear and unsure,
So I built a bridge from east to west.

I waited at the bay with longing,
Yet, let’s say, the day was done.
In this vast sea of sand,
You painted mirages in the sun.

As I sank in shifting sands,
You took my oars, headed to land,
By the bay’s edge, where I lay,
Breathing out, I called it a day.

Tired and weary, I’m worn,
You can go, explore the morn,
Chase treasures on your own way,
Warm sands invite me to stay.

Watching sunsets from the bay,
I embrace the night, no delay.
Mesmerized, I have no fear,
I trust destiny, the path is clear.

I am content, at peace within,
Beginning a journey, new and thin,
It’s time to leave this familiar bay,
For everything else, I bid goodbye today.

AMIDST THE SILENCE - Helan Maria Cyrill

In broad daylight, ‘midst Manipur’s streets so wide, Two women, young and old, in despair reside, Paraded naked, their dignity denied, Groped, molested, their faith set aside. Alone they stood, under countless eyes’ glare, Their hearts turned cold, burdened with the nightmare, Alone they cried, their voices filled the air, Seeking justice, they stood, a silent, solemn pair. Pain nestled deep within, they stood their ground, Grief welling up, they rose, courage they found, Hoping to be heard, voices in resound, But silence and inaction was all around. Hearts heavy, wounds revealed months later on, A nation stirred, conscience awakened, dawned upon, Yet, did they speak out, or remain withdrawn, As a land lay scarred, with stories left unsung. In the background, a land so vast, so wide, Scarred by flames, ashes and tears coincide, Tales untold, within its soil reside, Amidst widows in white, dreams set aside. Families broken, laughter fades away, Homes destroyed, tears flow day by day, Be
