1987

The lanes we shared shy glances on,
The houses we wished upon,
The trees we imagined around that barren land,
I walked through those memories today,
Saw my yesterday transcend today,
It must prick, when you think of me
Or have you locked up memories like I do?
Until a morning like this.
But I pray, for you and for me
That it isn't regret, but wonder
That chances upon you,
When you think of
How we met worlds apart
At 2am, in a cab, riding towards1987.

Confessions of a Demented Mind

Dear Readers, I realize that it has been a while since my last post. Honestly, have been trying to write, but somehow I almost always got too super critical about whatever I wrote. 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. You know, you don’t belong with them, but the conveniency is a rather pacifying idea. Because, it’s only human nature to get by with what comes easy and make-do with the unappreciated. But then,

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

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.
