The End!

Thank you all for stopping by & leaving your footprints.
I have run out of inspiration to keep this up anymore.
Sometimes, heart wrenching though it is, you need to say good bye when its time!

Numbed..

Read this.. The worst part is that after reading this our reaction is in all probability going to be.."India..it happens all the time.."
We are a country so full of armchair revolutionsits..yours truly included..who believe that something that has no chances of changing is not worth any attempt at getting our hands dirty..
Travelling is an eye opener i guess.. The view that was taken for granted after years of conditioning is now numbing.. human life..is worth all but a few thousand rupees..when it is invaluable!

From the Idiot Box..

From the time we wake up
to the time we go to bed
our mind is full of questions..
"is he the right one for me?"
"is it going to rain tomorrow?"
"will she make my life as bright as i hope?"
"will there be love again?"

When these questions are answered
by the answers that we hope for...
that is when Happiness begins!

You..

are everything
I am not..
but still
everything
I am

but then again..
you are
everything..

Justice?

Drawing away from what
he had done..
surveying the carnage
all around
the blood spattered walls
seemed to speak
of a new interpretation
to justice..

Post #150

..and I wait
to repeat
& be heady
again..

when my
eyes..speak
to yours

are you
me,or
me you?

Before Sunrise..again

What a movie! I am still all attention when i watch this movie.. I must have watched this so many times but it doesn't fail to hold my attention every single time..The minute detail in the movie are so amazing..the progression of topics that Jesse & Celine discuss..the way they start getting comfortable with each other..the way they start predicting how the other one will behave..The way they try to pretend that this night will not affect the rest of their lives & pale everything else..The cliches..The nuances in the body language..
Just wish L was here to watch it with me...

Far?

Waking in your memory
i realise..
divide us many a
thousand miles..

that cosy cafe..
not cosy anymore
inhabiting sugary
cooing twosomes

The familiar paths..
serve to remind
all the times
i want to rewind..again..

the many miles
now..trivial
sensing your vibes
keep pace with mine..

Sometimes..

Sometimes
just sometimes
the mask reveals
a softer inside

a mask?
Does it really need
a shelter away

maybe not a mask!
we do believe it
when so trained
& for so long..

a hint of moist
for all those
missed most..

the perfect man..

A perfect man shall never be
until the perfect she
knows all his chinks..

armour pierced
to none but one..

solace sought
in unpoken words
in a radiant smile
in a reassuring hug

A perfect man shall never be
until the perfect she
has covered all his chinks

Tere Bin..

Tere Bin Sanu Sonya
Koi Hor Naiyo Labhna ,
Jo Dekhu Ruh nu Sakun Chuke Cho jo Nakhra Mera...!!!

Ve mein sara khum ke vekhya
America Roos MalayasiaNai kite vi koi v pharak c,
Har kisi de koi sharat c,
Koi Mangda mere si sama, koi hunda soorat te fida,
koi mangda meri c wafa,
na koi mangda meri bala,
Tere bin hor na kise mangni Meri ya Bala....

Tere bin hor na kise karni dhup wich shaa.....
Tere Bin Sanu Sonya Koi Hor Naiyo Labhna,
Jo Dekhu Ruh nu Sakun Chuke Cho jo Nakhra Mera...

Jiven rukya c tu zara Nai yo bolna mein saari umar ,
Jiven ankhya c aankha chura
Roovenga sanu yaad kar
Hasya si mein ehsa ajeeb Par tu nai c hasya,
Dil Vich tere jo raaz c,
Menú tu kyu nai dasya

Tere bin sanu eh raaz Kise to naiyo dasna
Teri Bin peed da elaj Kise veid kolo lavan….
Tere Bin Sanu Sonya Koi Hor Naiyo Labhna,
Jo Dekhu Ruh nu Sakun Chuke Cho jo Nakhra Mera...
Milya c aaj menu tera ek patra
Likhya c jiste tu sher bardasht da Padke c usnu aanju ek dulya
Aankha ch band c eh raaz aaj khulya

Tere bin eh mere aanju kise to naiyo chunga
Tere bin eh mere aanju Mitti wich roolna....!!!
Tere Bin Sanu Sonya Koi Hor Naiyo Labhna,
Jo Dekhu Ruh nu Sakun Chuke Cho jo Nakhra Mera...!!!

Zapped??Now check out the translation below..

besides you my love
i shan't find another
who'll give peace to my soul
and indulge me

i have gone and seen it all
america, russia, malaysiana
there wasn't any difference
they all had some condition
some asked for my time
some were fascinated with my face
some demanded my fidelity
none wanted my demons

besides you no one else
wanted my demons
besides you no one else
shall shade me in the sun

(the) way you paused slightly
i shan't forget all my life
you said, looking away
"you shall weep in my memory"
i laughed a strange laugh
but you didn't

you had a secret in your heart
why didn't you tell me
besides you none shall tell this
secret to me
besides you what druid
has the cure to my ills

i found today
a note of yours
on which you had scribbeled
a varis shah couplet
upon reading which
a teardrop fell

what was locked in the eye
was revealed today
that other than you
these tears of mine
won't be kissed by
none else

that other than you
these tears of mine
will wither in the dust


Awesome isn't it? :)
It is such a joy to read such eloquent lyrics..

Mangalored...

Overnight Volvo journey..a very good friends marriage..morning walk in search for coffee..prolonged in search of breakfast..pre-marriage jitters..realization that it'll be my turn someday too!.. amazing lunch..parafet at Pabba's.. wearing a dhoti after eons.. stuffed after dinner.. wine & conversation.. super company..some serious talk & loads of laughter..
bus ride to the hometown.. walking around in the estate.. early morning dew..sweets galore.. those heavenly heavenly twisty roads..
sigghhh.. I want to go back.. & this time on my bike of course... :)
