Finding Love

-
We lay under the burdens
Of seemingly accurate assumptions
Learnt  judgements that lingered 
From callous throw aways of people
That were only protecting their own short comings

We assume and brood
And let it drive our lives 
For miles and miles 
Yearning for someone 
That will help us change these misunderstandings

We look in the mirror 
And find a hundred faults 
Hoping one day it'll be perfect
Not realising that perfection is subjective
To approval from similarly misled people 

We look for love 
Forgetting to love ourselves
Re-enforcing flaws rather than strengths
But we will find it by our side
The day we learn to love inside.

That Woman You Know

-
Do you see that woman? Hidden behind the dorky exterior Still shines with radiance and grace Do you see that woman? Hiding behind her silence Still has many stories to tell Do you see that woman? Hidden underneath her skin and clothes  Still fiery and full of spunk Do you see that woman? Hiding behind her shyness  Yet has a wicked sense of humour Do you see that woman? Hidden behind the tired eyes and smile And has stories of daily courageous battles  Do you see that woman? Hidden behind her screen With a heart as deep as the ocean Do you see that woman? Hidden behind her insecurities Still a champion for the meek Do you see that woman? That sits on her dark windows But dreams about the stars Do you see that woman? That looks back from the mirror  She's too much, too little,  Too guarded, too crazy  Too mad and too awesome  In a life of constant storm She is the ray of light.

Leaving The Clocks Behind

Trapped in the hours of the clock I lived life in yesterday Healing scars from the past Allowing them to marr the future Experiences shaped perceptions Of how I viewed life Allowing it to colour The future I imagined The past year however Broke this spell Cast by shadows That hung over me I don't see the future still But not the past either Anxiousness hasn't become trepidation Nor expectations transformed to fear Something inside me Is beginning her new journey Born from this year of time Lived in today She doesn't have answers But to herself she's now kind As she starts a new journey Of leaving the clock behind

mood swings

-
People have always recommended me to blog. Maybe they relate this with my innate ability to talk to lampposts ( translated as everything under the sun), but thats not really true. Silences just make me uncomfortable, it makes me wonder about the opinion people would be forming of me and since i belong to the generation which pretends to "care a damn" bout most things, i just keep yapping endlessly or maybe till someone would "give a damn" to etiquettes and ask me to shut up. It could also be blamed on sun signs and the cruel hour of fate in which i was born and all that drama , since being a Gemini gives me such contrasting mood swings that at a point my friends considered me as a case study for bi polar mood disorder. Some say its just restlessness and i should do yoga to soothe mind and spirit, i tried it too..at the end of the class when people did shavasan and pretended to be dead..my mind would scream for everyone to show some emotion other than calm breathing!...
