Can you show???

It was post lunch. I was the third student in the third bench in the third column in the class.It was very odd time to have a realization. It was a time when I also realized the saying that teacher is equivalent to God. He was the only reason that I was enlightened to sit and unfold this great work, Though it falls into the category of 'nonsense', I am very much happy to have been releasing it for the sake of those who don't understand the power of the pen, or rather words as I am typing this. Let me not keep you in ignorance, though it is bliss. I am with this script to disturb it.

He came to my bench. I was apparently fidgeting with my books, being crushed by two heavy weighters of our class on both sides. It was inevitable. He asked me "Show me yours". I was shocked. It was like time has frozen for few seconds. It hit me like an ice cream. My thoughts were already drifting towards somewhere I dont know, in search of the answer to the most important question I felt at that moment. He asked me to show something I don't have. Consequent of my mind's absent state, I was punished. He ordered me to leave the class at once."Go out and kneel before the door". I felt helpless. I wanted to ask him,ask the crushers behind me,ask the benches, the black board, God or someone.. Is this fair? Has justice gone on a vacation? But there was no answer. I was punished for something I dint do. Should an innocent, ignorant, fragile hearted boy be punished for some work he dint do? It was after all just one day's home work. Gosh!

Then I took an oath on the ant that was making its way through the sand on the floor on which I kneeled down. I will definitely find a answer for this question. No one else should suffer for the lack of an answer for this. Thats the reason I -affirmed- to write this book "How to show what you don't have".

I am sure folks will enjoy this one-in-a-million magnificent piece of work.

tanhai....

दिल का दर्द छुपाना कितना मुश्किल है,

टूट कर फिर मुस्कराना कितना मुश्किल है,

दूर तक चलो जब किसी के साथ तो फिर,

तनहा लौट के आना कितना मुश्किल है ....
