I wish...

I wish I can stroll on the sea-shore
And hear the incessant ramblings of the sea…

I wish the waves would touch my feet,
Creating flutters in my heart…

I wish I can sit on the rocks
And let that music echo in my ears…

I wish I can gather the shells
And countless pebbles, with the pride of an innocent kid…

I wish I can fly high in the sky
And challenge the mighty eagle…

Wish I can land on the moon
and claim it mine…

I wish I can wander in the enchanted woods…
Hoping to be lost in its vastness

Alas…. I wish I can take a break from the numerous thoughts
that surround me!!!

a good attempt. but...arent the first three stanzas pretty ordinary wishes which you can experience sooner or later but the other stnzas refering to eagles etc,there it is understandable that it is a difficult wish to come true so you wish you would get it.and nice stanza in the end sort of anticlimactic i guess

yeah.. ordinary for sure... but then, i am not comfortable around water, ... sea shores actually scare me. The only time i ever went to a beach, i was sitting so far away from it that i could only hear its rumbling and could not see the sea.. :)

Too late???

His pride took a ride, yet the fear for her, overbearing every rationale. The terrorists are loose in the city and the thought of her life in danger, however remote the possibility caused him to swallow his ego and ask of her again, “Please…” “I would rather be within the touching distance of a suicide bomber”, she said. Turning her back to him, she walked away, muttering, “So typical of him to think I require him now, as though I have not survived without him. I do not need him to feel secure in my life. I am happy and perfect and ….” “Are you?”, her conscience questioned. “Yes” “Stop lying to yourself at least”, her conscience countered. “I am not”, she a...

Ah! Irony?!

There are a lot of things going on in my head right now. All this resentment at being chained is growing in me, to the extent where it threatens to consume me. When things are fine, all these feelings are in a back burner, but at the slightest ripple, all these feelings surface, as a bubbling tornado and every time its as though they never went away. I can feel the blood rumbling, I can feel my eyes threatening to overflow, I can feel the anger in me ready to engulf everything around me. Yet, yet, I need to hold everything in. Life has to be simple, yet we complicate it, with people we surround ourselves with. I mean, even if we live on an island, we cannot really escape people, can we? Family, friends, relations, strangers - all are people, ready to pounce on us, rub their emotions on us and basically just willing to complicate our life. We cannot shut them out, nor can we let them in. Ask, talk, feel, shout, scream, wallow, cry - how many emotions and for what? Who gives a f**k about...

Thank you Usha for tagging me :). Tagging being new to me, took sometime to understand what needs to be done… The Tag Two questions from the past, present and future. Answer them and then tag your friends from the blog-o-sphere. Leave a comment on their blog letting them know they have been tagged and you are all set. Yesterday Your oldest memories Amazing how things of past cling on to you as memories that last forever. And those memories drive us to live a life amidst every chaos that erupts round us. There are a bunch of memories in my casket, each extremely warm and beautiful. To pick one is likely to be a tricky task. C’mon, I need some help here, which one to pick??? Will pick a memory when I was about seven years old. The kid in me fancied climbing hills, mountains, trees, buildings. But for a kid, do mountains or hills or peaks make sense? I think not, or I remember, trees and buildings are something that I thought should be mounted with extreme caution of a monkey. And I was v...
