When Winter stays forever

This is not a very happy Blog! This is 1 of those days (months), when you start to feel this cold winter and the numbness will never end!! You want all sorts of un-realistic things, like turning back time, getting something stupid and feel that is the only that can make you happy!!! The sad songs hit your ears and you are alone in a room, in your office cubical or in a crowded bus/train/road! The fact that you are alone remains fresh into your herat, head and mind. Life seems to be on a long hault, everyday you wake up & the emptiness hits you...gets to you!!

Its not that we do not have a way out, its just that we are paralized not to take the way out!! I know people say, life has its ups and downs, & everytime its(life) at its all time low I tell myself, it cannot get worst! & sun has to shine now, the tunnel has to end and light will be seen any moment from now!! But now I long for the sun & the light, which never seem to be coming! Now I have reached a phase that, good things are just a pass by and the bad things are here to stay!! I know I am being - ve to the core and this will seem stupid, when I read my own words at a later date! But do you guys think I will forget the pain this day or this time of my life gives me??? I know out of the 60-65 yrs (may be) that I will live, this few months will seem like an lil drop in the vast ocean of life, but isnt it not true, that every drop 2gether makes it an ocean!!

I know for sure life is not as bad as it looks!! I know this is in my head & I know I am being over sensitive. People say its always right to listen 2 the head and do what is the "obvious" right!(logical, a=b=c). The heart is somehow always saying the opposite! These days my heart has kinda stopped talking to me atall!! I ask for solution, as I know its only the heart who will make me do the right things!! I wait for it to stop being mad @ me n speak again!!!

I know I will be out of this, and will be happy again....I know I am here cause God wants me 2 learn a lesson in this, there has to something good to this, and I am yet searching for the right answer, the right lesson.....Till then I just hope for the WINTER to get over and Sun to shine again!!! Miss those who always were with me!!

The Summer that died

I could breathe you in
as if air was tight with beauty.
I could wash your tender,
sweet tasting skin,
but only in a dreamin which you would walk toward me.

I hear past conversations
in which we grasped and wrestledwith each other's words.
I listen to friends when they talk of her,
but ignore them when it should be heard.

She reminds me of a shadow,
cowering on behind the moonlight.
I remembered when you walked,
the wind stripped your shadow,
the trees bonded with the breezeand my heart lay naked to your spirit,
and as those days ended,
it became the Summer that died

An Evening on the streets of Colaba..

Saturday 17th May 2008 was a remarkable day for my sis MSA! Reason - 1st so called "outing" in the whole of 2 months vaccation she is being "enjoying"!!! So we headed to do what girls are best known to have done, apart from crying & bitching (thankfully, we arnt best in any of them) SHOPPING!!!
Its like such a stress buster this "Shopping" thingy!!! Seriously!! We left home at about 4, and reached the place @ 6, after traveling like more than 30 kms, to this not so small street called "Colaba" rite behind Gate Way of India, Mumbai! So it all started with searching clothes for her and ended with buying loads of junk jewllery! The "search for the best" attitude makes it all the more exciting! & yea for 1se you can decide what u think is the rite price!!!

But more than all this, the whole street is full of firangs, trying to buy Souvenirs from India, cheap jewelley, the cafe LEO, a place where u apparently get the world's best Crispy chicken! The small roadside shops are really colourful & even if its really humid in Mumbai @ this time of the yr, its not so bad to spend like 3 yrs on that street!!! Its something about the place that makes you wanna come back!!! Its a strange mixed pot of culture and kind of people out there....

You walk like 1 street behind this place, you land up near hotel Taj Mahal and the Gateway Of India! Thtz 1 place you shouldnt be on a Saturday evening!! Its like any busy stn of Mumbai! But the only difference is, this time the run is not cause 2 earn their bread, but 2 getout of that run!!!

Cheers to the spirit of the City that never stops running !!!
