Without [yew]

I woke up during a blue black morning.
I looked around, but couldn't see yew.

I waited till dawn,
then stepped outside in my cold backyard.
There were so many leaves fallen down.
I called your name loud, for help.
but I couldn't hear yew back.

Few hours later it started snowing.
I ran in the bedroom in joy.
but I couldn't talk to yew.
I sipped both cups of coffee alone.

I was alone the whole day.
couldn't see, hear, or talk to yew.
it was the longest day without yew.
the longest winter without yew.
it was the longest life, without [yew]

... and she asked if I would ever miss her?

When I look at my cellphone,
and see your name and number in my list,
I miss you.
I call and hang up right away...

When I drive to work,
and see an ugly yellow car,
I miss you.
I smile and drive by.

When I have my lunch,
and its pizza with lots of cheese,
I miss you.
I pause for 2 minutes, and continue eating.

When I'm sitting on a swing,
and the other swing is empty,
I miss you.
I look at the sky and sigh.

When I watch TV and try to grab popcorn from the bowl,
and I see that there is no bowl,
I miss you.
I close my eyes for few seconds, open it, and continue with my show again.

When I'm about to fall on my bed,
and I see my phone, but you still didn't call.
I miss you.
I weep a bit at the end, but I do sleep peacefully...

... and she asked if I would ever miss her?

LiFe on 2nd LaSt bENCH !!

Life was the same till high school.
But later we started college.
From 1st bench to back benches was a very big jump.
But I'm glad I made it till there.

Things were VERY different back there.
I guess only a 2nd last bencher would agree.
Oh, I miss those college days.
There, we used to sleep till three.

People comment back on professor.
Music would always be on.
Radio keeps us updated.
I would know which class was going on?

Thanks to my lovely friends.
They always got food for me.
I know it was college,
But we always felt free.

*There are few people who feel college life is the BEST LIFE ---
I totally agree with them.
I wish college days never got over.
I miss my 2nd last bench days.

Shez all that

Shez all that

She there, on top of the moon.
Sitting with such an attitude that,
even the people down on the Earth think that she owns that spot.
Shez all that...

Shez sitting there with MY Voodoo Doll in one of her hand,
and a pointed needle in her other hand.
and there she shows her wicked smile.
Shez all that...

She starts poking the needle all over the Voodoo Doll,
and I could feel the pain here.
as she laughs so loud as if, everyone is forced to look at this girl.
Shez all that...

She jumps on the Earth, and hides her till dawn.
and as the Greenland spreads all over,
laughingly, She runs under the yellow bright light in her whites with hands spread wide.
Shez all that...

She makes it appear as if she is flying, but thats her, and I'm not lying.
She waits for the clouds to spread their Dark Blanket.
and as it pours, she welcomes the rain with a bow.
Shez all that...

She is a.........................

Puppets

Sometimes I feel that I'm not a human,

I feel like a puppet.

My hands are tied by someone,

and I'm hanging on somebody's hand.

I can't let go of the string also, coz...

I've reached so high with help of others, that--

if I let go, I'm gonna fall really bad.

Slap me, or even punch me hard.

I'm just a heartless thing with no feelings at all.

I'm used only to entertain people.

I dance on someone's fingers.

That's my Life - and I'm a Puppet...

~ Everything's Gone ~

y is there so much hatred in world?

I was never told that when I step down and start my life, I would have to face millions of unhappy moments in this very short life of mine.
I always thought that there are only happy moments.

I was never told that a heart has to go through lots of pain.
I always thought that its the most beautiful gift we got, and its meant only for loving someone.

I was never told that the brains I got would stop helping me when it comes to dealing with people.
I always thought that it would make me smarter every breath I take.

I was never told that the soul I got would be cursed for no reason.
I always thought that I was sent to do good for people, and touch their hearts.

Everything is gone now.
My soul has been cursed,
My brains have been mashed, and
My heart - it started beating me now.

is this what you really wished for me?

Goodness

That dark night just passed by
and it was a beautiful sunny morning.
The clouds were high up in the sky,
looking down at me walk by.

I crossed the whole big field.
It was golden in color coz of the sun.
I could even hear the far far birds.
and thatswhere I wanted to go - the woods...

I walked thru the woods.
All I could hear was the water, falling..
Thats where my feet are taking me.
Towards the waterfall...

I crossed the woods.
The sound of water was getting louder.
I jumped on top of the huge boulder,
and there it was - a waterfall an imagined before.

I stood there on the boulder with my hands on the waist.
Looking all over there beautiful place.
It was like a mini paradise.
Covered by woods all around, and the water - fall !!!

Everything was just so beautiful.
Until I saw a small kid there.
The Kid seemed upset,
He was crying without shedding his tears.

I walked towards him,
and told him,
"The sun is out to wish you good morning;
and even I'm here to enjoy this with you"

The small kid looked at me, and smiled.

I asked him again.
"hey lil-boy, what happened?
u seem upest,
is everything alright?

The Kid looked at me, and said...

"I don't know whats going on with me.
I've never done bad or even thought bad about anyone.
I've been there at whatsoever time they wished to see me.
still they call me a back-stabber?

When I decide to do something,
I think a lot of times.
and the decisions which I make,
are untrustable for those whom I care?

Today I regret that this World is so cruel,
and I'm so pure.
This World has done wrong with people.
and when I go to help them, they think I'm also part of this World?

I feel so lonely,
But I wont stop.
This World is killing me every second,
But, I'm breathing just to make people realize that...

-- Goodness might not be seen; but believe, and have faith.
as I'm going to prove it to you that I'm here with you."

"I'm here to show you the invisible air"

- Keep doing good. (someone will notice)

The Dark Blue Night

7 Friends,

Beach,

Late night,

Dark blue sky

Empty bottles.

Bright moonlight,

Sound of music,

Beauty of lyrics,

Laughs all the way.

Same thoughts among all

Fact or illusion?

Storm of dreams?

Moments OR Life?

The 7^th finally said – "I LIVED LIFE TODAY"

this one is for Shaina !!

The Longest Step

The Longest Step

Life starts even before we realize about things and human behavior.

It starts even before we are born, and the memories are very shabby.

- As we grow up, and are around 5 years old.

We are always waiting for either pizza, or playtime.

We think that our elders are just so stupid.

- By 10 years old,

It’s just that we are small, and we have to learn from them how to take care of stuffs.

We are little brats now.

We think that our elders are just so dumb. They don’t know anything.

- Teenage life is the considered as the most mysterious life.

This is the time when we start questioning ourselves.

We want to know the answer of all “why?” questions.

But we don’t realize what wrong we are doing at that time.

This is the perfect time to either destroy or build up our life.

We think that friends are everything.

- We are college students now.

Everyone knows that we are having fun.

Everyone knows that we started taking our first step.

Everyone knows that this is the best time of our lives.

We think that we are living our dreams.

- Now the actual first step comes in our life.

We have to find a job, buy a car, and buy a house.

We also have to get married to our mistake from high school/college.

Our socks are always torn from the bottom during this moment of life.

We struggle so hard, but as its said. “Luck favors the brave.”

Instead of thinking in our lives, now we start realizing things.

- We are well settled now, with a very good job.

Our kid is 5 years old now, and now we look at our parents and praise them.

Every single day of our lives is the same.

Monday also we ask people, “When is Friday coming?”

We realize that it’s tough to raise a kid.

- We are old now.

We might have someone to talk with.

Our kids think that we are just so dumb, and so stupid.

They think that friends are everything for them.

When our kids have their own kids, and they start realizing that we were true,

We are on our death-bed, just waiting for life to get shabby again.

Live each and every moment of life with a smile.

Cause you won’t even come to know how how soon you grow old..
