   A FIRE WITHIN 

The desire becomes the want
The want becomes the need
The need becomes the addiction.
When the fire burns, 


Not in the dense forest
But in the forest of thoughts
Thoughts to achieve
“Its not in your limit”
to prove the author wrong.
This author can’t write my destiny

I know the key
I know the lock
But I don’t know how to open the lock
Or may be I simply cant
Every step I take, every rule I make
Something drags
I know what drags but still I fail to keep it away
This drag throws water to my fire

My fire, my fire, my fire
When will it burn the “drags”
And give light to my desire
I know……………….
This fire will fulfill me, the day it has burnt the drags.

My experiment with Rs5.                                            By Prerna Mishra                        (written in college 5th sem, 2013) In last 31 years, they have only asked for your 2 minutes, now as an added topping with just Rs5 in your pocket.  In the interiors of Jharkhand, a true Indian village lacking in almost everything, where survival is with bare minimum resources, Life goes on because it has to. A few government schools established under “Sarva Siksha Abhiyan” shabby building, teacher sits outside the classroom with hand-fan. I saw Students having their cherished meal. A big bus carrying thousands of packets, parked outside the school. Yes it was Maggi; these children were having and of course free of cost. Mid-day meals have perhaps become very boring for these children! They too...

Beautiful is not always stable… Beautiful and as I say this word, something must strike your mind. Be it nature, love, family and friends. what makes these things beautiful are that they are forever. Beauty as I thought is pleasing, soothing, mesmerizing and of course stable.  As I try and delve this feeling of beautiful. I find myself hanging in the sky. All things I thought to be beautiful have changed. I remember how badly I wanted some things in my life to stay just the same forever, but it changed. Everything changed. All the time I connected these two words beauty and stability, I thought this is it! ooh such a naive I was! Stability is a lie. Nothing is stable. I am changing, the syllabus in my school is changing, relationship status is changing, and even the mountains are shifting. Perhaps no body is at rest. Confused, I realized only change is constant.  This acceptance was hard!  For a girl, who has changed her school every 5 years, ma...

Girl, Go & Grow

Girl, Go & Grow She chose the burning road, the different air, the puzzle that no one dares! I hear the reason they throw at you- “girls can’t”, “get back home”, “time up”. I know the reason you tell yourself. I don’t feel your pain but your passion roars telling its story. She crawls, walks, runs, falls, but refuses to stop. She embraces the pain. That girl goes and grows through pain. Friends, she doesn’t have them. she knew it would be a deserted path. Ordinary girl, no extraordinary skill set, but dreams. She runs forward, detaching herself from this breed. Breaking the chains, she reaches out to new horizon. Through that sceptic glasses, the world would never see the real her. Of all the persons, I met on earth. She is the craziest of the bunch. She is restless and persistent She is weak and strong She is frightened and is fighting. I watch her on battle field, to find whose reason will win, to know how long hope kept her heart beating, to feel he...
