Rebellion

Me and Miley
are going through similiar stuff,
She is rebelling to find purpose,
I am rebelling after I found one.
She is rebelling
after success made her dizzy
I am rebelling
to find success for my own.

Love - Again

I felt touched,
for the first time in years.
I felt love
And it wasn't the
teeny weeny bubble-gum type -
It was love
as I knew should be.

And I felt
the heart throb overtime -
anxious, elated.
And the dreams
came back to my eyes.

Suddenly, I was no more
aloof to the world
and i could see -
love, tears and suffering around.
And I could feel -
Joy, fear, anger again.
 It was as if
I was in love again.

Hitchhiker's tale

Ramblings from today...It feels great to update after so long.

I hop from one to the other
to reach, where the lady is waiting.
I drink from the milk of human kindness
and I drink hard
to get drunk
but my feet won't stagger,
I won't fall,
I won't throw up.
I have a lady waiting
I have to go on.

I enjoy the sights,
all that the road has to show.
Green and concrete,
Old and new.
but I am not lost in history
nor in philosophy.
I have a lady waiting
I have to go on.

Diary of an A-League Girl


Day 1-
Ah! he pines away the night,
while I, his thoughts,
stay impervious to him, in my world.
As neutral to him,
as neutral can be.
Amused at his love -
so unrewarding and hopeless.
Sympathetic....
Sympathetic - nothing else.

Day 20-
He looks at me funnily,
longing dripping off his eyes.
I pretend not to see him,
his face, his sad drooping eyes.
Poor soul,
so hopeless and waste-
Why dream of stars
you know, you'll never get!

Day 101-
And he never looked at me,
whole day,
I passed by him thrice.
The hypocrite -
he had promised to love me
all his life.
Any way, it doesn't matter
I am way beyond his league!

Day 120-
Hey, its a month now
and he didn't look at me -
not one day.
I know it for a fact coz
I was looking at him
all these days!
What does he think of him, that moron,
the vile, wretched man.
So, suddenly his love is over?
that lying, ass of a man.
Its good, I could see through him
didn't fall for any of his lies.
What do I care?
Oh no, I don't.
He is just a dumbass,
vile, wretched man.

a drunk man

Dedicated to one of my drunk friend at a certain drunken night.

And the night
he gulped a bottle down,
the galleries trembled
at his madness.
the stairways swayed with him.
His rocking motion,
to and fro.
No mortal soul dare come near him-
No man, no dog
and not even a fly.
The moon hid back in terror,
even stars trembled at his sight.
The night he gulped the bottle down
he looked a man possessed -
exorcists were called.

the saddest love story


It was the saddest of them all-
the stories of love
that ever were writ,
except she never once had said
Oh dear, I love you.

A day of love

My love - one day long,
One day of madness,
One day of song.
With crack of the dawn
and parting of the stars,
there goes my love too -
Long Live the Scars.

Glowing like a hot neon light

I had been to Kolkata this summer. It is a product of that fine trip.


I had come to her,
from far,
and a long time too.
Her eyes were burning with passion.
The spirit was aroused, inflamed
and she stood there blindling,
glowing like a hot neon light.
The gloss of the night was hers,
as was the glamour
and she stood there illuminating
a thousand passers-by.

Moonlight faded in her presence
and night took heart from her soul
as She stood there bewitching,
a world ensnared by ghosts.

The honey kept dropping from heaven,
the fireflies coming up to light...
Somehow something in me had turned -
though I kept looking afar.

You

And You
in my solitude,
my thoughts for nights at stretch.

Yes You,
in company,
where all I see is you.

Just You,
in frolic
but all I think is you.

And You,
in tears,
the tears making dew.

A love that lasts?

I will bring you a rose everyday
for years.
one day, your face will wear down
and will have lines on them
unlike the rose.
But will I go away from you that day?
Not at all,
I will be old too
and you will be all I will ever want.

I will walk with you
to the garden every evening
and one day,
our love will not be fresh as it is today.
You will not giggle at every word I say,
I will not turn my head every few seconds
to see your radiant face
but our love will have grown,
ripened with age like wine
and i know I will love you more
than I will ever have before.
