Wishes

all i ask for is a glimpse
all i wish for is a dream
a glimpse into the future
a dream that can come true

Arrogance

Its filth pervades my senses
it splits my brain in half

i try to shut it out
but i cant escape it

its conspicuously everywhere
its the stench of human arrogance

Why?

why should i hide myself in abstractness?
why cant i just write what i feel?
why should i be so circumspect?
why should i be discreet in my wrath?

People - different kinds

some people dont understand you even if u spell it out
while some people understand you even without a word being spoken

Sigh

I grab at things beyond my reach
only to end up with a fistfull of nothing

i wish for things beyond my needs
only to end up losing what i already have

A new chapter

its well past autumn
the leaves have been shed
today i turn a leaf over
and choose a new path to tread

i am off to a new beginning,
i am off to a new start
and no i am not fooling myself
and i am not being smart

Losing your nerve

nothing to lose
and nothing to gain
and yet my nerve
i lost it again!

Logo's

That one was Castrol
and this one is Dettol!
Hey, thats Cisco!
and this looks like Texaco.

All i see is the logo
half done and half to go.

The Language of Thought

What is the language you think in?
Do we need a language to think?
Still probing my mind...

I see

i see people
i see through them
i see through their actions
i see through their innermost thoughts
i see the good in them
i see the bad in them
i see everything

Opportunity

it knocked at my doors
and i refused to open
it pounded with both fists
yet i refused to open
it banged and kicked
even then i refused to open

opportunity:you went-a-begging

In the downs

some people think so well
they make my ideas look so small

some people write so well
they make my lines look void

some people speak so well
i have no words to match them

but some people do nothing
and hell! i excel at that.

The US

a few wish for love
a few wish for cars
but these savages
crave for wars!

Music at its best

brilliant riffs that leave you spellbound
ingenuity that cannot even be dreamt of
genius that is hard to equal, forget surpass
"wherever i may roam" you ring in my mind

Bloggers

Their words are like beautiful beads
strung together with great skill
their thoughts help me question
and to my hearts content they fill

Digging up roads

dust rising all over the place
sickens me to the core
they have dug up all the ways
and yet they dig up more!

Morning

the calmness hangs in the air
too silent for my comfort
in the distance the dawn cracks
and twilight fumbles on its way back
a subtle chord strikes my ears
am brought back to reality by music
wafting through the corridors
someone's playing coldplay
"I awake to find no peace of mind"
its a beautiful morning.

I love my college.

Therapists

why is it that a "therapist" is
awkwardly similar to "the rapist"?

Moonlight

the branches gently sway
the leaves swish and play

a few fall down
while the rest hold on

in the dim moonlight
its a captivating sight

Work

a pleasure when it works
and agony when it doesnt
