Milkshakes

Daydream, delusion, limousine, eyelash / Oh baby with your pretty face / Drop a tear in my wineglass / Look at those big eyes / See what you mean to me / Sweet-cakes and milkshakes / I'm a delusion angel / I'm a fantasy parade / I want you to know what I think / Don't want you to guess anymore / You have no idea where I came from / We have no idea where we're going / Lodged in life / Like branches in a river/ Flowing downstream / Caught in the current / I'll carry you / You'll carry me / That's how it could be / Don't you know me? / Don't you know me by now?
-A poem from "Before Sunrise"

PD'S BOOKSHOP

I was eating my bread,
With a poised and tranquil head.

Suddenly I heard a door-ring.
Someone is at the door by the name, ”Bing”.

He told me that my bookstore caught fire,
It felt as I am burning on my pyre.

I was sad and dumbfounded,
Everything I have, is now grounded.

I can not imagine my life without books.
I still remembered those weird looks.

The look, people gave me when I left my job,
With nothing, but a vision to start “PD’S BOOKSHOP”.

Everyone at that time was against me,
But I have confidence and believe in thee.

Initially, I had some problems regarding place,
But then it started, and started in full phase.

I was very happy and excited in my heart.
Finally, I followed my voice and my heart.

But today, everything fell apart,
My world has shattered into bits and parts.

Alas! I only want one wish from god,
That, “Give me power and will to stand against all odds”.

Is it just me or is everything shit?

There was time when I was really happy, but today, it seems to me that I am just feigning my nonchalance. Now I search for excuses to get ecstatic. Why I do it? … When I saw people sleeping on pathways then I feel satisfied that at least I have a home and a mattress to sleep…I never think like this before…Is it happening only with me or is it now a general phenomenon? …I don’t know and I don’t want to know either because If I realize something which I don’t want to confront then it will only increases my conflicts. But then I remembers Benjamin Franklin quote - “knowing is better than wondering, waking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, even the worst, beat the hell out of never trying”…So I guess it would be better if I know rather than always wander to find the truth…

What I write and What I don't....

There is not much difference between what I write and what I don’t…both have not much essence…both have nothing much to comment about…both are born because I have lot of time to think…both should not be disclosed to public…both have not much life....so while reading my posts whenever you feel that I should have written something else…then always remember the first line of this post….

Why poems?

Why I always write poems even when I was sure that the poem is not that much appreciated by many persons…because as far as prose is concerned you have to have a good topic, a good flow and a good style of writing…also when you write a prose then you will be satisfied only after getting some good comments…whereas for me poem means just a thought in a rhythmic style…and you become happy by just writing the poem and you don’t have to wait for the comments...but when you do get comments and something like “ poem mein jyada samajh nahi pata” …then it feel like heaven… so do peak through my blog time and again for some good/bad rhythmic thoughts….and remember comments only inspire me to write more...and I know that you want to read some good poems..so keep commenting...
