UNTITLED

Tell me why do I have so many questions?
Where are the answers? Any suggestions?
Inside my head, there is this web thing
Jumbled and scrambled
The spider's got no wings
Though stick to the sides in the walls
Will it survive, if it falls?

Earth is revolving at a slower speed
Looks like my imagination has got a lead
Faster than ever, its making me feel
Like a horse running the cart on one wheel
Trying to find the route to its field
Confused, if the master will lead his way
Will it reach its destination anyway?

Tick-tock says the clock hanging on the wall
Second by second, minute by minute it talks
Time is always very short, I am told
When a mouse is running to reach its hole
Searching its way, cleverly it goes
Though it may fall prey to cat's claws
Will it survive if its caught?

Tell me, why is everyone stuck in this puzzle?
Trying to learn how will the life whistle
Are there any rules to be followed in this jungle?
When no rays can pass through and mingle
Fast or slow, everyone is betting on the throw
Revolving questions around life's casino
Will I find the answers to end it all?

Weird Adventurous trip

I was in a bus with a ticket but the irony of having a ticket and the journey is somewhat weird and crazy. Let me make some sense out of what I am trying to tell u. Hope u understand!! When I started the journey, even though I had a place to sit in the bus.. n even though I was sitting but I was actually not sitting where I should have been sitting.. Let c if I can make u understand.. There is leg space between two seats in the bus..right.. Now someone kept his suitcase blocking the leg space and a lady was sitting next to my allotted seat. I came and put my bag on that suitcase and went to get water. When I came back (for which I had to climb through the drivers place as there was no place to even stand anywhere in the bus.. it was so over crowded). Somehow when I managed to reach the allotted seat of mine, some guy was sitting on that place. He claimed that seat to be his and I fought with him just to find that lady was occupying my place actually. But because there wasn't any

Life's Zugzwang

As she woke up to answer the phone on her bed Just wanted to hear your voice, he said Holding her breath as she spoke Hello to the person over the phone Thinking about the dream she had Two people under that lovely shed Loosing her thoughts she heard him say Reminding her of the place they once stayed And then he asked her how you are today Never before she felt her heart sway To the tune of words she was hearing Stuck in her thoughts with the man who was speaking And lost was she in her own world dreaming Alongside this only person she kept wishing Her dream world to turn into reality And walk with pride in that beautiful city City which is called as love Having a straight road without any curve Still talking with him she realized She was on the phone, she sighed Wishing for the right time she cried And kept down the phone on her side!

Valentines day and RAM SENA

This is India, and I wonder how many of you are liking this "INDIA"... They say it is a place where every other soul can find a peaceful place to breathe at least one free air but here what I see right now, picking up the red carpet is the cries of the hearts who love each other but are humiliated because they LOVE each other. Celebrating Valentines day is not acceptable to our community, I wonder how come they celebrate New years according to English's Calender. WHERE are the people of acclaimed RAM SENA lost when the whole wide world is celebrating New years eve, kissing the one they love the most. This wasn't a culture of India then how is this acceptable? The News on the pages of The Hindu tells us the new drama which is going to be dramatized on the streets of karnataka, they will not only protest and will carry mangal sutra and other things and get the kids married on valentines day. WHY? just because they both are knowing each other until they decide if they wa
