Who stole my innocence?

An innocent bliss, an alleviating zephyr and a soothing rhythmic sound,
A Victorian architecture, of grey and white, would offer joys profound.

Who stole my innocence? Who snatched my wind? Who created this melancholy?
Heart beats disbelief, agony writhes in frustration, numbness encumbers soul at this heartless atrophy.

Is it hatred? Is it revenge? Or is it an assault mindless and indiscreet?
Hoping, for the city of spirit (my city) to spring back (once again) to its feet.


In remembrance of all the innocent lives lost and all the brave hearts. In remembrance of the two SP Jain Juniors who lost their lives to this recklessness. May their souls rest in peace.

Life is never gonna be the same... for those who lost their near and dear ones and for others as well!
All we can do is pray that our politicians learn their lessons and do justice to the many lives lost-of our great heroes as well as the civilians! May God bless their souls...

I am too stunned to react to this event.

But I know we will bounce back. Almost unfortunately, as the politicians will never learn the lessons they should as we will bounce back.

How much ever i wish this blatant act will evoke a response from the sleeping giant (our Country), our inactions in the past just make me believe that this time too we will get on with our lives without giving a fitting response to the perpatrators of such acts. This is another occation where the economics of our huge population brings us to a sorry state... High supply implies lower price.

As always, we wish and pray that this time there is more to it than a new movie on the subject. A wake-up call for some people who need to understand that national issues like this rather than the regional battles need more of their attention and their time. These issues which need us to be more united than divided. We have enough people out there who intend to harm us and we can not afford to have insiders contributing to the cause.

If ghosts really exist, may the souls of those who lost their lives haunt these in-humans because us, the living ones are too involved in daily chores.
