Words

Do they mean a lot?
Do they hurt you lot?
Where did we go wrong?
We are only humans
Is there anything more?
Why?

And if the world should fall apart hold on to what you know

Dear blog,
This is life. No one asked for it but everyone's got it. It's just weird how sometimes life turns out to be. Sometimes you feel that "You're living it" and the next moment you just spend the 20,000 bucks you saved for an air ticket and steal double that amount from your dad's account and just runaway to nowhere hoping never to come back.
But that's not just how life works. It never tells you what's gonna happen next. Guess that's the mystery of it but sometimes you just feel like had enough of it. These kinda moments come once in a way but when rough times role, they come one after the other. And then you ask yourself back whether this is the life that you wanna be living in. And when the questions don't come right away the life seems to be pretty miserable.
Sometimes when storms come in life and you don't know when the storm's gonna end. Sometimes the only way to hold it on together is by just letting it be, coz sometimes no matter how hard you try, it doesn't get any better. Sometimes the harder you try the worse it gets. Then you feel like the whole world's fallen apart. That's when you just gotta let things be. Guess sometimes it's wise to just let things be.

Even heroes die


Dear mom,
I failed
May be for the right reasons but
I failed

I thought I could move great mountains
Fly beyond the horizon
I thought the time was right

Not yet mom
Not yet
Got more to learn

But the memory will remain
Today, tomorrow and forever
I shall not regret, no I shall not

But I tried mom, I did
Though some say it is stupidity
I tried

Sorry that I hurt you mom
Sorry
An apology cannot replace tears
But it is all I have

Love,
Son.

Burry me in a barren land


Dear mom,
Oh I’m scared
Thousand heads passing me
Without a hello or goodbye

I am all alone in the sea
Not knowing what to do
Now I feel real life
Life as it is

Still I have not given it up
Still I have some faith with me
But I am scared mom

Love,
Son.

Through the misty clouds


Dear mom,
I’m sorry
I did not listen to you
I could not believe your words

But I’m not a fool
Today I may be nothing
But I believe I know something

Now I’m leaving
Where you rubbed my hair
Where I called home

But I did not betray you
I did not lie to you
I did not let you down

Try to remember
The moment I first said Amma
And the moment I said goodbye today

Now I’m going through
The misty clouds of sky
Recalling, reminiscing

I will try
I will fight
I will rise

I might stray
I might cry
I might fail

But what matter the most is
What you’ve learned on the way

Just give me one chance
To prove you what I am
To try for the impossible

Love,
Son.

Loner

"Things will change, I know
              They always do

Loner's life offers a lot
               But I'm not a coward

Brave from the heart
               A lion with a smile

Many rivers to cross
               Sure not where to start"

There's a world I see.....

Dear blog,
There's a world I see. All the people running. All the people fighting. All the people crying.
I do not understand why.
There's a world I see. All the people laughing. All the people loving. All the people caring.
I do not understand why.

Where are they running? Why are they fighting? Why are they crying?
I question why.
Why are they laughing? Why are they loving? Why are they caring?
I question why.

I have to run. I have to fight. I have to cry.
They tell me why.
I have to laugh. I have to love. I have to care.
They tell me why.

Problem unsolved. Life unfound. Meaning unknown.
A deer after the mirage, an unseen tomorrow tied in to the mind.
