At Sea

In a corner somewhere
along the Indian coast
or in some small  island lost
without a worldly care


This is going to be my life
is a beautiful house at Sea
listening to the sound of Solidarity
and of the high tide


To feel the sand between my toes
and hear the sound of the heavy waves
with a good book to while away my days
and for the afternoons to doze

To run along the shore
and leave my foot-prints in the beach
to have good sea-food at my reach
and to taste the salt in the air

A solitary life I will lead
my only friends my dogs
and of course a lot of wines
for company I will have no need

A Known Stranger

When I saw your face
I felt it had a trace
Of some one I knew  in the past
But a stranger in the murky present

I held your gaze
you did not seem amazed
You smiled with charm
And was soon making me laugh

I wanted to get to know you
There were only us few
I hoped it would be soon
And you certainly did not disappoint me

It wasn't long before intentions were clear
We both had quiet a bit of beer
Soon we did a bit of dancing
And you were soon holding me close

I guess I felt the tinge of comfort
And I did my share of being a flirt
as I moved away I felt your eyes
I hoped it was  more than nothing

Snow Patrol - Run


Isnt it funny how you listen to certain songs a million times and you identify certain feelings and thoughts to it. You listen to the words again and again and you believe that those words mean what you want them to mean and then you glorify the artist for being able to describe all those feelings, making you think you are not alone....

Well thats what I felt with 'Run'! The most awesome song by Snow Patrol. Imagination has always been my best friend and worst enemy, and in this case, Im not sure what exactly I should consider it to be in this situation. I must confess, I am also a Drama Queen, well I used to be... over the past one year I have become a bit more passive. Anyway back to the Point!! 

The song was my 'Break-up' song, and at the time I used to listen to it, I was very much in a relationship, BUT I used to listen to it and I used to feel so emotional. And yes, I was no where close to breaking up then! Can you imagine how weird I must have seemed to my now ex-boyfriend then! And he did! I used to make him listen to it as well(I tend to believe he did, because I used to play it once in a while, when I used to speak to him on the phone!!) One would wonder why would I want to listen to a break up song when I was very much in the relationship....I guess we could just call it intuition. Because we did break up eventually....and at the time, this song helped me get through it. 

Well Im never going to use that song again though! Because the 'Light' shined on me one night, when I was having a moment of enlightenment with my friends... we listened to that song and we watched the video....It all made sense to me.

The song is about a Bike. Now watch the video,read the lyrics... and tell me Im wrong!



I'll sing it one last time for you

Then we really have to go
You've been the only thing that's right
In all I've done

And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here

Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear

Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can't raise your voice to say

To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do

Light up...

Slower slower
We don't have time for that
All I want is to find an easier way
To get out of our little heads

Have heart my dear
We're bound to be afraid
Even if it's just for a few days
Making up for all this mess

To Let go

I hold on tight to the memories
but then i need to let go
I hold on tight to nothing
but to a friend i dont need anymore

To have held you close and cried
I was nothing but a fool
what did i do to deserve this
but in that moment it was cool

You were just a loser
a waste of time infact
I could have had something better
but now its just a heart with a crack

I guess I dont hate you
but i definetly spite 'us'
who knows where we would have been
if we hadnt done this

But I  keep you in my heart
because you are a part of me
and I will never forget you
but now I feel free

Serenity

I  felt the sting
I connected the dots
I have reached the edge
And made my peace

I didn't know how
I always felt amiss
I guess I need not worry
For uncertainty has disappeared

I am in a moment of light
I an the footsteps of heaven
I feel a deep sense of calm
It is as if silence is now music

I raise my arms with gratitude
I do not know why I thank
I feel it makes sense now
And all I needed was one hit

I cannot care to explain to the world
I can only show you a part of it
I will say I'm no expert
But truth be told  no one is

Pain will wash away
And fear will evaporate
Sins are cast away
And love will engulf you.

The Story of our Lives

You see the girl smile
And you see how the boys hearts melt
You hope these things really happen
But that’s not how the cards are dealt

The story of our lives
Are not really romantic
We hope for things to happen
But reality is just sick

Man was meant to search
For the meaning of their lives
But its when fate’s last blow hit
That the truth is derived

The stories about epiphanies
Are meant for us to have hope
But in a world filled with lies
We should all just turn to dope
