Playing life [>]

Insomniac exploration of possible extremity

Blissfully ignoring the brewing calamity.

Intrepid moves, dreaming of renovation

Failures that lead to successful destruction.

Idolized, synchronized chaos in thought

Switching phases, the mind fought.

A curious case, caught in a maze

On a twisted trip called the testing phase.

Kept the tide high, let the time sigh!

Defiance was interesting.

Fate is resting, history is rusting

And the smiling today looks disgusting

Swaggering around with audacity

Dreaming all day, cursing the almighty

Ignorant moves with dreams of stabilization

Crippled Stairway, it’s the weak foundation

Hope is chilled out and high on dope

The cynical soul is balancing on the rope

Killing the inner-self to feed the outer shell

Flaunting a phony curve, camouflaging an ireful frown

Social impudence, result of swelling self-resent

A phase, when mind best likes the rules bent

Then ignorance finds bliss, dreams get a kiss

Walking between closed walls, nothing more to miss

But life’s not all about closing eyes, while alive

You may hibernate, only to wake up to strive and thrive

Living the dream, dreaming and living

Learning, experiencing & understanding

The competition never dies, struggle never ends

Maneuvering with dexterity, banking at the bends

Until soul ascends, faith and fate make the fences

And the mighty mind tries to master it’s circumstances

You are funny !!

"It is easy to be funny, but your fun may not amuse all and those who do amuse all are those who laugh at themselves, their troubles,

their life ... gradually they hide it and laugh at others, laugh at their mistakes, laugh at their misfortune; but in a lighter vein.

Where, the victim of sarcasm would be witnessing his own mockery in amusement."

A virtual friend living overseas, once remarked that ' i'm funny ' after reading my response to a healthy discussion between us. My reply did not stop with just a 'Thank you' ... the above followed .

She liked it, couple of other friends remarked on a +ve note. The writer in me felt good ... delighted .The quote gradually found it's place on the face book posting space,next thing after food and shelter !! Yeah sadly true, that most of us today might forget to spare few mins to pray or call parents but will not forget logging on to Face Book .

I have also decided today that i'll blog religiously, blog my thoughts and not just post it on face book . More over will ensure my thoughts do not die in my head.Most of my works are on paper, but these days i'm better on keyboard then a pen...couple of years from now i may only know how to touch or write on an imaginary screen in the thin air or may be just thinking with my mind and it would be on my blog while i'm still sitting on the shit pot where as my laptop is on the desktop !!

This is about a friend, who discovered one day that she was in love with her new found friend. They shared a good relation and she wanted to take it further . But, her confession did not give the smile she wanted . He accepted her love but denied to take a vow . Disappointed, discouraged and defeated she decided her fate. She failed to convince herself that she can change it if she had a little faith She thought she can close her eyes and not disturb us, but she did..... Her feelings where not buried with her, they are still alive in my words She is resting in peace now ! This was written 2 weeks prior to her suicide, the day she explained her reason for being down ! Hope you like it !
