Hope

Waking up every morning,
Feel like nothing's ever gonna change
You come along looking clueless;
The system got us down
Even your best of hair.

But I like to think
You're a breath of fresh air
To this cemetery of
Broken souls;
Retarded, disregarded and dreams of
Trying harder,
You're the future kid,
In this epiphany of mindless-jabber.

Thoughtless postures,
Staring blankness,
A purpose with no desire;
Softly killing us to retire.
Nothing we hoped for
Was worth all this trouble
The system got us down
Pray, they spare you the label!


But I like to think
You're a breath of fresh air
To this cemetery of
Broken souls;
Retarded, disregarded and dreams of
Trying harder,
You're the future kid,
In this epiphany of mindless-jabber.

    You're the future kid,

    Must say you have a thoughtful mind..:)

Confessions of a Demented Mind

But thanks to some wise men ( and women) around, who brought me back to my senses, here I am with a rather honest confession, about how I see myself and the world around me and how it is still the “ME” part, that stays a mystery to me. I recommend you listen to this beautiful piece of music, while you may judge or witness this long with held post. Confessions of a Demented Mind Ever wondered how the people we are with, may not be because we like them, love them or care about them, but because of our own insecure needs to be liked, loved and cared about or maybe because it is only convenient to be with them.

So, here is a quick list on; why you should be dating a Nirmaiite and yes! I am single and a Nirmaiite. Just Saying! We can Adapt: Each one of us wishes of a date that’ll put up with all our tantrums and oblige to our moody indecisiveness and if there’s one thing, we can do amazingly well, then that is adapting. Be it, meeting up with crunching deadlines, pressure situations or last minute cancellations, we’ve seen it all. Chances of us getting annoyed by your unusual mood swings are rather bleak; the system’s tamed us quite well. So, if you’re looking for a no-n...
