Marvel at the play of light and shadowsMarvel at the dream of life Marvel at the movie we’re a part of All a carefully crafted illusion to forget the suffering until it reminds itselfJoy is a rare metal of the universejostling for its survival in the world of greedMarvel at the realness of emotions when…

[552] Ten Seconds to Eternity
![[552] Ten Seconds to Eternity](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/image.png?w=1024)
Are ten seconds enough to change the mind?Ten seconds at the edge of chaos,ten seconds where order unravels,ten seconds where the human storm begins.A reel flickers answers,but the question still burns:Can you embody wisdom in seconds?Are ten seconds enough to change the body?Ten seconds to forget the slow work of process,ten seconds to drink wisdom…

“You have been silent for too long.Tell me a tale.So much time spent in solitude—In living, in limbo, and in not living at all.You must have a story to tell,Emotions to make me feel,Thoughts that made their wayTo epiphany.”I have been holding a thread on two ends,pulled by fate and fear,ensuring it doesn’t breakunder the…

I wash up on the shore of Tomorrow Island,Sun yet to riseCan I skip the worst parts?Could I? Should I?Don’t want to live in should haves,Just want to feel, I am.Where do you think we gowhen waves return to the ocean?All the sand upon my handdoesn’t slip when it has already rained hereWhen life feels…

Everything he saw merged before his eyes But before it merged Everything was distantLost in his inner world,he stood by the riversideHolding the deadliest sword known to mankindA boat arrives and he sitsThe boatman is smiling The warrior is smiling So he asks ‘Why?’The warrior recollects horrors He reflects on his inner demons He thinks…

![[546] How To Remember and Forget](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/img_2351.jpg?w=1024)
In one sweeping gazeYou can tear it all apartSlippages of my past cut through my stoic civil warIt beats another life to unearth my anxietiesYet it remains invisible, omnipresentMy blindspots become the battlefield ofthe paradoxical dance of my intrusive fearsIt doesn’t make sense to live a lie of purity I suffer rhythmically and make a…

I was knocked out by the secret in the airDismantled by the yearning to touch her hairI wish to come home to the silence of my wordsI wish to come home to the thought of youLet’s meet behind the grief of yesterdayMeet me in suspended animation where we find a moment to exploreThe life before…

The sacred feeling the universe in your eyesThe feeling of self a hazeBut a boundless connection to infinityIt comes, it lifts, then fades away,A fall that stretches, in disarrayTheories of life ripped awayAll instincts devoid of creativityThe sacred feelingthe moon in my eyes From my room’s windowI feel the celestial grace, a momentI carry out…

Hypnotise meMake the source of my anxiety revealed in your livelinessTeleport me to a point where I don’t have any choice but the right oneHum me sweet melodiesLull me and merge me into an endless consciousnessFeatherless, formless, I fall…Eyes open I am shaken into my surroundingsDreams had taken me to a place where every decision…

[542] Come Home

The answer is the simple thing deniedThe obstacle is you in your own wayThe present is tethered to the lifeless pastThe future wails in denial of the presentYou say things to others you want them to say to youYou hear echoes from them, memories fading like dreamsYou see things in the margins known only to…
