A matchstick stroke
A puff disappearing
Dissolving slowly
in the air
Losing existence
taking something
along with
Long weak threads
Linking life
and beyond
A dot of fire
dazing and fazing
gorging on time
Bitterness inhaled
Life exhaled
"That is not dead which can eternal lie, And with strange aeons even death may die."
A matchstick stroke
A puff disappearing
Dissolving slowly
in the air
Losing existence
taking something
along with
Long weak threads
Linking life
and beyond
A dot of fire
dazing and fazing
gorging on time
Bitterness inhaled
Life exhaled

As I walk in the
shadows cast by
the sarcophagi of
my own happiness
It comes back to me
Same hurt same pain
same longing all again
When refrain was the word
I must be fool
Some people never learn
It holds so true
They say the first cut
is the deepest
Then why it hurts so much
this time too

G: How you define something
which you want so badly
But will give your best
to avoid it from happening
C: There is no definition
no words
but love is something
that happens without premonition
G: Why would I want love
when it always hurts me
when its more of a shackle
than a key to be free
C: A key can set you free
or lock you in
love can be fun too
its your choice baby
G: A key can open a lock
but can't crack a wall
How can you mould it
when you can't control it
C: Uncontrolled craziness is cool
why do you want to bind it
go with the flow
and if you can't
it's ok, u aren't a fool
G: Its not about insanity
the problem is the war
and when both sides are your own
doesn't matter who's at par
C: Don't make war
make love baby
You may be on both sides
but its not about winning
Bow down to your heart
joy will hit you like a dart
G: What do you do
when the fight is between
two splits of your heart
Where can I find an answer
because love games are neither
explained by science nor art
C: I can't give an explanation
not everything has an answer
Science or art
can't explain matters of the heart
Don't get into this discussion
it won't help in any way
Let life unfold its mysteries to you
some may be good, some bad
But let me tell you my friend
love will find you in the end

A conversation between two friends:
U: Take a walk with the stars tonight
Do a tango with the spirits of the night
Let your heart reach out like a kite
Get drenched in the colors so bright
Fulfill every dream in this dreamy night
This poem for you my heart wished to write
When I thought of wishing you a sweet goodnight
I hope to you it seems alright (Period)
G: What sadness that seethes in me tonight
Even stars can't take it away
With their light so bright
Emotional stupidity is the cause of my plight
Thanks for the lovely words
Wishing you good night (Period)
U: Run away from the blinding light
Watch every sadness melt away
Into the embracing night
Emotions are badges
Wear them with pride
Wish i could make you feel better
Could a hug kill your plight (Period)
G: Running is not a solution my friend
Day is half of your life
If you waste half of it avoiding
The meaning of living is rife
Showing emotion is risky my friend
Cuts like a knife (Period)
U: Emotions like people are of different kind
They can heal and warm
Or smother you in binds
They are your feelings
They are you
Don't shun them aside
Feel them understand them
Only then you'll be fine (Period)
U: Another night another dream
Of flying cars or engines of steam
What do you want to be tonight
A soldier, a sailor or a ballerina
With dress of light (Period)
G: Dreams are what you want to be
What you want to do is
What you dare to see
Neither a soldier, nor a sailor
A wandering soul who’s born free (Period)
U: Oh wandering soul
Where do you go
Looking for what treasures
Running from what foe
Born free you were
Like a lark to fly
Then how did these chains
Come to bind you so (Period)
G: Souls are free from responsibilities of life
A successful son, a well settled daughter
A well earning dad, a loving wife
Roles to be played are reasons of strife (Period)
U: Roles to be played
Duties to fulfill
The vicious circle of life
The reason for all strife
But above them all
There’s a duty too
A duty you have to
No one but you
A duty to be free
A duty to dream
A duty to desire
A duty to be
In the walk of life
Amidst all your strife
Don’t forget yourself
Don’t sacrifice your vision
Live out your whims
Hopes fantasies (Period)
G: No matter how good it sounds
Dreams are bound with duties
It may sound funny
But in the end
It all boils down to money (Period)

Two demons dwell in me
satisfaction and sanity
blabbering aloud
impiously irreverent
blasphemous profanity
Satisfaction leads to peace
sanity is road to
materialistic vanity
What will it take
to fill this abyss
but one thing I know
I won't leave my fate
in the hands of uncertainty

A knight strolls out
on the withered night
beaming his armour
to wage a fight
The night is young
and breeze is dark
but nothing in world
can snuff the spark
that burns inside
to wage a fight
against the evil
face to face
to make the world
a better place
Some shadows move
across the town
The horse is whipped
to follow around
An empty stretch
beyond the street
Its time for them
to feel the heat
They corner him
exchange of words
We have a gun
now part with sword
Remove the armour
the mask from the head
Now go to your home
and sleep in your bed

With that hurt, that pain
you left me insane
love no longer matters
when you left unsaid
Gloomy are the days
lonely are the nights
world no longer matters
when you left unsaid
You left me to die
and I pine for you
matter no longer matters
when you left unsaid

For those who are unaware of this name, it’s a band which has infused elements of Pop, Rock, House and Electronic to usher hip hop into a new era and take it to the wider masses. The band consists of Will-i-am, apl.de.ap, Taboo and Fergie and has already won 3 Grammies in 4 years of their existence as a professional venture.
The gates are thrown open at 6:30 pm, a good one hour late from the destined time and people start pouring in from all directions. The stage is set and the crowd is getting eager to get face to face with something they have been watching and following on television for this long. The author finds himself a location merely 5-6 feet away from the stage, thanks to his early bird antics. One hour more and the crowd is already on its toes, shouting, a bit of cursing and the stage suddenly shimmers under the blemishes of white light. The deep tone of bass boomed marked the arrival of BEP.
It all started with Hey Mama and moved on to Don't phunk with my heart, My Humps, Pump it, Don't lie and the very melodious Where is the love interlaced with the solo performances by Will-i-am (I got it from my mama, sizzling track and snuggest of random rap) and Fergie (London Bridge, Fergilicious and the very famous Big girls don't cry). Apl.de.ap went back to his Philippine roots with Bebot which was duly appreciated and thoroughly enjoyed by the crowd. Taboo and Apl.de.ap displayed their bboying prowess and revved up the tempo.
A brief stint by rain couldn't act as spoilsport as the ticket amount was too much to be wasted because of a drizzle, kidding. The deadly combination of great music, electrifying lighting and a hot-bod Fergie was enough to keep the crowd hold to their ground. One last announcement, BEP will continue to make music and produce albums irrespective of the solo careers of the band members.
Sneak peak time, courtesy advancements in technology of mobile phones:

The party continued till the wee hours but the meaning of wee hours is a bit different in Bangalore.

Solitude has been my companion
Today I am afraid of being alone
I've been living this twisted life
Today I am afraid of being torn
Hurt was the way of living
Today I am afraid of this pain
I've been fighting this insanity
Today I am afraid of being sane

It was my birthday and I was going to a temple on a rickshaw when I met with an accident and got this one as my birthday gift (Another reason for making it to favorites list) with few others.
I've got a couple of them,a 6630 and a 6585, both by Nokia and both of them look like normal mobiles with a screen and a keypad. But it will change soon with an iphone (Merits of being single and earning ;-)), any operator listening, I am willing to buy one ??
3.What is on the walls of your bedroom?
A pale yellow paint with a few cobwebs, spiders and lizards thrown here and there. Who knows someday I'll wake up a spiderman.
4. What is your current desktop picture?
Requires any description ??
5. Do you believe in gay marriage?

Doesn't matter what you say
or what you do
try being parasitic
I won't let you
I don't ask for anything
don't expect to give
I only yearn for things
I need to live
I know that you use me
its not so hard to see
but so do I use you
Its symbiotic baby

Its time for something off the league. Last weekend was an XL one, courtesy me working on Saturdays for last couple of weeks. It started on Wednesday, yes, I know, yippee. But its not as rosy'n fun as it sounds as all the friends had to attend their corresponding offices. So sleeping, eating and watching TV, all the way to Friday night, yeah, lame but couldn't think of anything else.
Comes Friday night and off to a drive on the bike, first to a friend's house but "Sir" is busy and so is everybody else. What next ? Drive alone ?? OK....a quick dash to the MG Road and Man ! Loved the weather !! But while returning, the bike stops in the middle of the road, lots of kicks but it won't budge, checked the fuel, everything seems good, still. Good weather, empty roads, everything fades away with the sweat sweated away in the attempt to start it. Anyways, after some wasted time and frustration, it starts somehow. Meanwhile something else happened as well which will be continuing till next day but I won't be mentioning it here. It was a story in itself so might make it a separate post.
So, after all the hassles,back to house and off to bed, Friday night is over. Saturday morning started a bit earlier than expected, thanks to the linked incident which started last night and ended in the evening. Anyways, everything was planned for Saturday, thankfully. First to shopping and then to a movie at night "The Invasion" starring Daniel Craig and Nicole Kidman. The star cast sounds impressive but trust me, movie isn't. Sounds like a weekend gone bad, not really. A friend suggests a restaurant named "Paparazzi", funky eh ?
Starts part post interval, call it, let the good times roll....the place is uber cool, a lounge on 10th floor with great view of the whole city at night. There is a sense of high-society feel to it. Great ambiance, great music with good food to boot and I'm already loving it. Tried some dishes with names never heard before, can't pronounce them even now but all in all, they were good. The dinner is done with some great chat over the food and time to head back to home.
Sunday is all about getting up late, lazying around, ordering food, some home chores, Oh yes ! bachelors baby ! some TV and whole Sunday is gone. Now what, preparing self for Monday Morning Blues which would stretch till next Friday comes. Good Night then....

Sitting alone here in this room
thinking what is wrong with me
When everyone is enjoying the bloom
I am longing to be free
The shackles that hold me here
those shackles are self made
I've chained my mind, my heart
Soul lying on the edge of blade
My existance no longer exists
I'm a living dead piece of meat
I sense no chill in the wind
My body can't feel the heat
I try so hard to hide it
is that what makes it show
They get to meet a happy me
My heart pumps pain with blood flow
But why this self imposed exile
Why when I don't want it
Why this tormenting of myself
This question is endless pit

Have you ever felt
being a nobody
Have you ever dealt
the words they say
the melting of mind
the moral fray
When nobody likes
being with you
When everybody avoids
being seen wih you
Have you ever felt
being a nobody
Have you ever seen
the hate in their eyes
When nobody understands
your pain, your plight
When nobody wants
to talk to you
When nobody is there
to walk with you
Have you ever felt
being a nobody

This is not mine but this definately belongs to me, painful yet adorable....
Sheets of empty canvas
Untouched sheets of clay
Were laid spread out before me
As her body once did
All five horizons
Revolved around her soul
As the earth to the sun
Now the air I tasted and breathed
Has taken a turn
and all I taught her was everything
I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands
Chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything
the pictures have
All been washed in black
Tattooed everything
I take a walk outside
I'm surrounded by
Some kids at play
I can feel their laughter
So why do I sear Oh,
and twisted thoughts that spin
Round my head I'm spinning
Oh, I'm spinning
How quick the sun can,
drop away...
And now my bitter hands
Cradle broken glass
Of what was everything
All the pictures had
All been washed in black
Tattooed everything
All the love gone bad
Turned my world to black
Tattooed all I see
All that I am
All I'll be...
I know someday
you'll have a beautiful life
I know you'll be a sun
In somebody else's sky
But why Why Why can't it be
Why can't it be mine

Tensions add to tensions
Anguish springs from anguish
Sorrow rests on sorrow
Cravings feed on all
Terrors rise in terrors
Regrets float on regrets
Fear gathers fear
Envy curses all
Confusion sows confusion
Ignorance enthrones ignorance
Weakness causes weakness
Pride shatters all
