As I Wait!

Heres the latest. This is about how we all seem to have some sort of mind block. Why do we feel that the entire world is against us and that we are all alone to wage out fight against everyone else's will. The actual drift is that our mind is blocked and fails to see the ones that care about us and how we only tend to realize our near and dear ones and their good will for us when we are in more than a spot of bother. This poem is one that depicts that realization. We can just hope that it is not to late when we realize that we are not alone.

AS I WAIT!!!

My head hurts,
Drops of Sweat flow down my cheek,
My mind's locked in a wooden crate,
As for death to come to me, I Wait!

Mirrors on the left,
And those on the right,
Reflections seen,
gave me a fright!

Memories linger,
Thoughts wander,
I can feel the touch,
Of people who grew fonder!

Why in this state am I,
when they're still present?
It then struck me,
I had no one else to blame for my decent!

Alas! I had locked my own mind in that crate,
Never once seeing the Twist of fate!
Now realizing Life was at stake,
It was time to open up that crate!

I searched frantically for the key,
Right beside me I did not see!

Now I want my mind released from the crate,
As for death I no longer wait!!!!

The Others!

Hey .. after a long time have started posting new poems again... lotsa them ... will post soon.... this one is about how we tend to worry about other people's opinions and judge ourselves even when we are right. Its about realizing that their's is after all an opinion and does not matter in the flow of things. What matters is whether or not we believe in ourselves and are ready to stand up for what we know is right. It goes something like this....

The Others

Walking in thoughts lost,
I suddenly stopped in my track!
Could feel the heat,
Of a cold stare on my Back!

Terrified as I ran to hide,
My life moves a downward slide!
The best hiding place is'nt far or near,
Only way is to face the fear!

Eyes of fear,
eyes of doom!
Touch spine chilling,
teeth so sharp!
The mind but needs a melody,
to drive away the gloom!
A tune as soothing,
as plays a shiny golden harp!

Wether a foe or someone dear,
when faults not your's why should you hear!

Life's sometimes not all fair!
That ai'nt reason enough to despair!
Just forget about the prying eyes!
Lost in bliss, watch as time flies!

The time has come to burst the bubble,
to make those staring eyes disappear!
The looming storm, the impending dark,
Will also no longer be here!

Set your soul free,
forget and forgive!
Be yourself truely,Let the others be,
Thats exactly the way to live!!!!

The one Dreaded Evil away from home!!!

hi!!! well heres the latest .... its dedicated to all my fellow grad students here in the usa who know what goes on beneath that rosy picture of us that is painted bak home!!! the struggle to meet deadlines... the midnite walks.. the endless outings... the meet ups to finish pending work.. the frantic calls to find out whos completed how much...! everything...! of course the fun factor always finds its own way.. but theres something that we are always up against !!! read on need not say more......!!!

The One Dreaded Evil

They say evil has many faces;
Think I jus saw one!
But the reason why I could, was known to me;
Deep within I saw it coming;
Though never did I care;
After all did it matter that much?
Cos it comes despite all the despair!

This face of evil , one known yet unknown!
Keeps popping with forseen alarms;
It doesnt give me a chance to run;
Efforts to hide are put to rest!
It destroys my mind; It causes great pain;
Yet I gotto fight; one which I gotto win!
Winning or loosing aint in my hands,
But i strive to give my best!

Alas! swinging minds blow me away from the battlefield;
To a place so heavenly n divine;
I loitred around in a state of bliss;
the chance to fight this way i missed;
the fight was still on I had forgotten;
Time was gone to fight again;
I stood defeated conquered by the evil;
bringing with it a state of gloom;

I thought to myself; maybe next time;
Ill prepare n fight the oncoming doom;
But then i found; evil but has many faces after all;
they came in a group this time;
I stood defeated again;
almost out of my mind;
I said aloud ; its of no use;
next i shall not fight;
Ill just give in; whatever be my plight;
The evil was far too strong; it conquered one and all;

Still; in a land far away from home; often screams are heard;
Oh No! here comes the face of evil;
Its called an Assignment!



ps : U cud also replace assignment with Midterms ;) or well thts yet another face of evil !

Whats Inside!!

Heyy! heres the next post... or rather the next poem... well this one is quite simple... we all think we know ourselves in n out..! but it ain't like that..! I think its more like we have many sides , many facets to our own personality.. that we don't know of ! Sometimes the smallest of happenings make us withhold ourselves from doing what we know we should be.
We all try n show off our best side to the world. But sometimes that ain't quite enuf is'nt it? Well so heres a poem that deals with discovering the true inner self that lies within each one of us, n enjoying its beauty to the fullest. Cos inside each of of us lies a close to perfect person, whose potential n ability is just waiting to be tapped! hope this poem provides some insights!

Whats Inside!!!!

Its whats inside that really matters,
needles after all put together bits n tatters!

harsh they may seem,
living sans a dream,
plenty to look back n regret,
some things one would rather forget,

stormy winds gatherin speed,
violent splashes at the creek,
no one do they ever heed,
boulders too feelin meek!

But silent waters indeed run deep,
into thou soul they continue to seap,
within lies a beautiful world,
silently waiting to unfold,

Its never visible on the outside,
access to it is never denied,
visible thru a mirror,
it is waitin to be discovered,
to be understood!

carrying with it a radiant glow,
waiting to reach out n never let go!!

Unknown Light!

Hey ! Welcome to a world where everything u know or want to know about is questioned and also provided with an answer! Since a journey into the unknown is beginning now, let me start off by a poem called the Unknown Light! A lotta people tend to give in when the going gets tough. What they fail to realize is that the very unknown strength they were looking for lies nowhere else but within. So the poem's all about exploring ourselves and discovering the spark within us to get us through the tough times! Here's how it goes;

The Unknown Light

There are always 2 ways to life,
Its not all of sugar and spice!
For you don't play your own dice,
But that ain't making it a game of cat and mice!

There's always something we try to grip,
but are left with the pain of watching it slip!
There comes a time when we lose all hope,
With our troubles ain't able to cope!

Hope always comes out of the impending dark,
To our lost cause provides a new spark!
We always come out of this state of gloom,
All happy as gone is the foreseen doom!

Hope do the people who very much care,
Problems with them we will share!
Don't let your life by any means get diminished,
coz the best things in life are truely cherished!

Always carry your sparkling glow,
Coz only Happiness deserves to flow!!!!
