candid words

The Driving Force

I flew back in time and I came across myself flying forward in time. I could hardly make an eye-contact with that person..such was the conviction of that young boy, such is the emptiness of this grown up man..

..the older me was totally blown away. Notwithstanding the hurt of this degradation I asked him.."hey, how are we different ?"

..seeing the hopeless old me, the young me wrote something on a piece of paper, folded it, gave it to me and said: "Have a look at it when you finish this journey"

...After the utopic adventure was over, I curiously unwrapped the piece of paper.

All it said was: "I Fly Forwards".

Bengali Market on the Copernicus Marg is named after Bengali Sweet Shop there. We Stopped by

at that place today while returning from office. There were four of us 'AltoBots' as Harmeet terms us five. Harmeet wasnt with us today.

We ordered tea, chowmin, moong ka halwa and Dosa. I was a little low today so I was trying to entertain myself by acting a little crazy. I showed the Altobots how a little kid would eat the Sambhar. I filled the spoon with sambhar and kept dropping it little by little while I took it into my mouth. This littered the table and entertained only me :) . Then we had Gol Gappes. Then we headed to Costa Coffee and had two flavours of cold coffee.

This was all we did at Bengali Market following which we headed home.

if i dont have to think while chatting why is it that i have to think so much before writing a blog. it is because when i am chatting the other person also contributes and this helps alot since i can get hints to carry on the conversation. when writing a blog you have to think of the topic, think of people who will be reading it, and many other things. anyway i was getting bored so i thought if i can churn out thoughts non stop while chatting why cant i do so in a blog. so this is kindof nonstop extempore writing which i am doing today. today my end term exams started and first paper was AI. when some EEE guy asks me which paper you had today, i would say Artificial Intelligence. gives a sense of eliteness..lawl...anyways. the paper was normal...some facts and some fattes(fatte = giving your heart a sense that yes i have done something in the question, but in essence it is crap you have written..nonetheless its GGIPU)..i again got to sit in front most desk..i always get such seats where there is no chance of cheating..but yea today the invigilator was very dont care types..so i got a few chances to exchange thoughts during the paper..yea one thing that just came to mind was the cat fight that happened when we were having last minute preparations before the exam....it was kind of a deadlock where both girls had clutched the hair of other and were pulling..one girl was looking particulary strong and was vociferous also..nevertheless the fight was transient..but we enjoyed our bit..after the exam got over kunal dropped me and sush home (ty)..then we went to McDonald's at kashmere gate..ordered our stuff and sat and ate..after some time McD was all full of BVP or other IP students who were just out of the exam..after some more whiling we returned to our places..came home silver was waiting and i took him for a walk..he has this habit of picking garbage while on a walk, so i decided to somehow teach him not to do so...so whenever he used to pick something i tied him to some nearby tree and left him there and started to walk away...finding himself lonely he would cry and let go of the thing he had picked...anyways..after this i sat on pc..chrome opens last open pages..and that was facebook..some notifications there and some spam on gmail..and then nothing to do..so typed this..like it or not.cheers :)

An Excerpt

2009-07-27T19:43:00.000+05:30

Here's an Extract from Khushwant Singh's 'Train to Pakistan'.

Context: A Village inhabited by Sikhs and Muslims on the Indian side of Indo-Pak border faces the misfortune of partition. Muslims have to go. The feeling of losing one's property and going to an entirely new land, brings tears to both communities.

Here it goes..

Not Forever does the Bulbul sing

In balmy shades of bowers,

Not Forever lasts the spring

Nor ever blossom flowers.

Not Forever reigneth joy,

Sets the sun on days of bliss,

Friendships not forever last,

They know not life,who know not this.

ON TRUST

Only if i was potent

that one moment

when i let go

those precious words he held

with me

i wouldn't have to carry

this burden,

this sorry feeling

of having hurt my closest pal.

i'll brush my teeth before sleeping also

a request

2008-11-16T00:46:00.000+05:30

A Request

ignore me, please.
leave me alone
don’t make me conscious
giggle at my back
think i am a clown
have your views
but ignore me, please
leave me alone.

i like this damsel
her glimpse is all
for the queer thirst
of love, that exists

i wont explain, u ask
why that chase
why that stalk
why those crazy dreams
what good?

so avoid me
i just love her
ignore me,
i am just another teenager!!

Introspection

The house of fantasies

in the world of dreams

houses a child

how old he may seem

He rests carefree

in the lap of time

like an innocent baby

in custody of his mommy

This world is alien

these people so pseudo

their appearances how deceptive

their ways how mean

for some its right

for some its wrong

which side does he take

when wrong is right and

right is wrong

So,he stays apeace

and stays afloat

On the stream of time

Hope dwells,that when life ends

his ways be cherished by at least a single soul in this alien world.......

ahoy dude

the time doesn't

learn to focus

its a lesson to be learnt

thank you mom

for a humble bro

thank you god

for his beautiful co.

"time tested friends"

i dont meet you
but i know you best
although much i know of you
but still remains some quest

i want to know more
so that i have someone i trust
someone i can share my emotions with
someone i can feel free to talk to
someone who doesn't disguise
someone who doesn't care
whether i am right or otherwise

so let me discover
let me ask
let me unveil you
uncover your mask

dear,it takes time
to find a gem
from among the scattered stones
that lay worthless
But once you spot one
the pain is nulled
& it values a ton (stones)

so the answers you give
and the time you spend
is something that'll payback someday
when we'll be "time tested friends"

NOSTALGIA

oooh oooh
touch me gentle
ooa ooa
i m just born
uff uff
turn off the lights
please please
revive the calm

don't you smile
i aint a toy
dare you fondle
i aint for joy
why do ya yell
your voice so shrill
wats so xcitin
why dont ya chill

they took my leisure
and you grin
it was such pleasure
and you grin
they freed me from freedom
and you grin
they made me a victim
and still you grin

now lemme be clear
lemme be clear
i may be weak
but i aint harmless
i am capable
i can steer
the tasty spree
yes dumbo!!
i can pee!! lolz

i miss my closet
the state of trance
everything was pure
nothing by chance!!
and so i bawl
and so i long
my mom's womb
is where i belong!!!

my prayer

i am tethered
by fate,by rules,by limits
i have no say
no deed belongs to me,
no law mine
just a dummy,
puppet at your hands
trapped in the holy labyrinth
without a licence
without a permit
to be free

i doodle thoughts
they make no sense
i resist
i wanna extend
the end of the rope
to breathe
to stand
to be at ease

wanna part
myself from me
wanna see life
exactly as you see
oh lord!
sitting inside of me

wanna swap places?
wanna be me??
for one day sir
let thou be thee

yeah its hard
to take your place
but the pain compares
nowhere
to the light,to the truth
the hidden mistery
that you preserve
so aptly!!

who am i
what do i see
what to write
when asked about me
its your job
your work
your will
that i serve

i want to exchange places
want to be you
for one day,sir
let me be the Master too

my first post

2008-02-25T21:19:00.000+05:30

hiii folks!!! this is my first post

Mirage

i was alone
in the desert of my life
the scenes were monotonous
everything,but love had been tried

i walked on,
the boulevard was rough
every step was sudorific
the thirst kept rising
until i was breathless
and cud walk no more

i moaned and i fell
and everything was blue
but,i kept aspiring
i kept the hope
i know, i knew
the heavenly box of love
had my share too

ireached the verge
ialmost gave up
until i spotted someone,
icalled her you

the view was blurred
but it seemed great
i saw your silhoutte
i cud no more wait
so i had the rush
i compiled my courage
i stood up
to resume my quest
to find the love of my life
