Poetry on Being Stuck

 BEING STUCK The world is moving, but it feels I'm standing still, Just like a rigid and helpless hill. Which stands there unable to move, It got ideas that the world disapproves. But still it hopes for the best,  wishes for a happy sunset. The one where he is free from fears, Experiencing true happiness after many years. -Amrinder

IMPERFECT


They want you to be perfect,
To be the ultimate one,
To be the center of everyone's attention
Just like the sun....


But what if I'm the moon?
The one with no light,
The one that follows the sun,
& swallow its pride.


I reflect my ideas,
Just like the moon.
My mind creating tides,
& in the darkness, is where I reside.


I'm the imperfect one,
Opposite of the perfect sun.
But I am at peace with it,
Happy being the imperfect misfit.

-Amrinder


I have always loved the moon, and can spend hours watching it. It's a symbol of hope, longing and serenity to me. The fact  that moon has nothing no air or gravity on it and still it is able to hold a strong place in the universe astonishes me, as if telling people that no matter how less we feel of ourselves, how imperfect we feel about ourselves, we still hold a value; a special place which only we are capable of filling. Unknowingly like the moon, we affect several lives. Let us keep reflecting our aura like the way moon does and be peaceful and happy in our imperfectly perfect element.

"For you, a thousand times over"- Kite Runner Quote Meaning

"For you, a thousand times over" This quote has been taken from the novel The Kite Runner, written by Khalid Hosseini. This quote has been used by Hassan for Amir. For You, A Thousand Times Over To me this quote is about loving someone, to an extent that you are willing to do anything and everything for them, even a thousand times over. We often associate the word love in a romantic way, but love is diverse. The kite runner depicts love of Hassan for his brother/ friend whom he lovingly called Amir Agha. This quote talks about love in which we put someone else's needs before our priorities, one is willing to do anything for the other person. This love is boundless. But, what I also want to add is self love is very important. At times we give someone such high value in our heart that we totally forget ourselves, our needs, desires, dreams etc. Love should lead to growth. The love where only one person is giving and is willing to do anything is not right. Love yoursel...
