Upside down

My world is upside down
Your world is upside down 
But you are far away
Iraq, afaganistan, baluchistan, norwey..
I dont know where are you from
I am from INDIA 
(this automatically gets typed in capitals)
Well yes my world is upside down
Emotions..tremendously overwhelming emotions 
Love, truth, work, longing..
And i am thinking about you!
For me,
You don’t have any colour, nationality 
Race, gender , face for that sake 
But i am thinking about you
This is fourth day now
You have to understand..
No one thinks about someone for consecutive four days
No body has time to do so
We all are running in such a pace
That we don’t have time for a kiss, a mere hug
And here i am thinking about you
Because I believe i feel your pain
I have chosen a language to express about this.. which is not mine
May be not yours
Still I believe u understand English 
Everyone understands english
Yes i am from colonised country 
I believe this!i believe in many more things
What are your beliefs?
I don’t know whether you are religious..
But i can feel your pain
Pain .. odourless, colourless, shapeless pain
Like God itself!
Or whatever power running this stupid universe..
And in this universe 
Though we are poles apart
May be geographically ..
Nature wise I don’t know
I don’t know you!
I don’t know why you are in the pain!
Is it war, terrorism, poverty or something unsubstantial?
Why your world is upside down
Actually I should ask this question to myself 
Why my world is upside down 
After fulfilling all basic material needs
Why this void.. this loneliness 
Oh am i into a spiritual crisis?
Are you in one?
By the way are you on Facebook or Twitter?
Is there internet where u stay?
Is your pain virtual ? 
Can u share it
Can i like it?
Or retweet the pain?
What’s this fuss?
Over pain?
Over something I can’t explain ..
Can U feel my pain too?
Are you also curious about me
Are you aware of my very existence?
This all fasad is so small??
And at the same time .. its vast 
Can we grow our pain so big,
That the world beneath wont matter ?
And then our world.. which is upside down
.. gets connected.. from within..
To the extent I realise, u realise
We are one!
Our pain is from the same source..
Our loneliness.. we can beat it together..
With a single touch..
Nah.. not on any screen.. but a real one..
...
...
...
Now at least breathe..
Breathe in my lungs..the distance doesn’t matter..
If only i can know.. that u also feel my pain..
That you are also thinking about me!
See it’s already started melting
