Woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown!

Its been one of 'those' days when it seems nothing is right. The entire universe conspires against me to ruin my life.
A million questions flood the mind- Can I? Did I? What if I? Why me?
Suddenly time becomes the enemy. It's won the war. I panic. I didn't even know were were at war.
A million things to do - this hour, this month, the next six months, the next five years.
How will I?
Crying is the best solution. I know I shouldn't, I don't want to but even tears don't listen to me. No one does!
A million expectations to fulfill - theirs and mine.
Why should I?
This too shall pass. I know. It's not the first time. Should I wait till it happens, act like I'm working towards making it happen or believe that I'm making it happen and rejoice at my victory once it does happen.
Why am I blabbering?
Why is this happening to me?
Maybe it's a phase. Maybe its PMS.

p.s.: the title of this post is a take off from the title of the film screened in the audi today....a small validation of the universal conspiracy against me!

You and I

You led the way
Never asked why

Blindfolded I walked
Never asked why

Stumbled over rocks
Never asked why

Saw through your eyes
Never asked why

Struggled to match
Never asked why

You drew the lines
Never asked why

Did as you said
Never asked why

Now, when I yearn to fly
Why do you ask why?

think about it....

'Whatever the rationale, great design is about emotion'

ain't it?

Something Fishy

There once was a li’l fish
Colours of silver and blue;
Splash in the bowl, its only wish
Of the world beyond, not a clue

Suddenly popped the magic wand
Scooped it in a mesh;
Out o’ the bowl, into the pond
To live life afresh

Plunged into the blue with glee
To discover colours new;
Soon ‘twas time to flee
As the level of the water grew

Water pouring, wind howling
The fish lay still with fear;
Tossing, turning, twirling, rumbling,
The flood led it to the river

Looked around, eyes open wide
Sights never seen before;
Swimming through the current in pride
There began a quest for more

More and more, it strives to know
As excited as can be;
Ready to go with the flow
As river meets the sea

A riot of colours

Yellow, red, green and blue
Tints and shades of every hue
Colourful rivulets flow under the feet
In one big puddle, they all go meet
Water and mud mix for fun
Under these layers, all become one
A crazy drink not meant for the weak
Turns the sane into a freak
Piping hot aamti and sweet poli
Why o why, can’t everyday be Holi!

The law of nature!

If a situation requires undivided attention, it will occur simultaneously with a compelling distraction! :)

the aftermath

They barged into the room and attacked with hugs and kisses...
writing four lines was so worth it! :)

Four more...

Glint of masti in the eye
A future bright in store
From mumbai will bid her bye
When she moves to bangalore.

Four lines each...

Multi-tasking is the stance
Never the phone kept free
Loud conversations in the distance
Is that an A plus I see?

Aged, wise and sound
Undoubtedly a dude
God help those around
When he ain’t in the mood!

Balance in the mind
Perfect at the art
Nowhere else will you find
One big throbbing heart.

Contemplative in nature
Not lacking in guts
No doubts about the future
I hear, “Are you nuts!!”

Prances like a kid
Unconditional is the love
Fall, the mighty did
With just a little shove.

If gossip be the game
Compete no other can
All charged up for fame
Still looking for a fan!

A mind full of logic
Less sleep, the pet peeve
A whole lot of senti
Is the trick up her sleeve.

Always in sprightly dance
Can’t do without the phone
At every given chance
Waiting to run home.

Quotes, poems, verses and rhymes
Sure deserve a loud clap
But, be warned my friends
Anytime you’ll hear the snap.

A million memories I’ve found
Times – happy, wild and free
Without these faces around
I wonder how it’ll be!
