His game called Life, I was there too.

We used to exchange pens, I remember
I remember the Hero Pen, the Brown bottom and the top crown gold
You used to get me chocolates, I remember, 
Dairy Milk, the Rupee 5 one 
You used to call me everyday
When the clock struck 8, it was me at the other end
101 Reasons why you are my best friend card you gave me
I actually read the 101 Reasons.
Da vinci code, I loved the book I said
 A week after my Birthday , the day you met me, 
Robert Langdon I read on the cover
It was 3 years after I met you, 
The Rakhi, you let me tie,
The bond we had from day one
Just turned much stronger
It was just another reason for you to shower me with chocolates
This time it was Kit-Kats along with Dairy Milk
You knew it had changed
I still store the bundle of pens and the cards 
All we exchanged, from a pencil to our MP3 players
The song of Everybody from Backstreet boys
I danced with two left feet
While you grooved well to the beats
And the whole school applauded
You were there to listen to me 
All the cries and all the fun I shared
I remember you made me win the game of Housie
In your Birthday Party
The Gol gappa and the drink of Mint
I still remember
I was proud of you, when you took over Casablanca
I thought wow, he's gonna make it high 
Not think, I knew
We spoke about your plans
You joked about marrying me
Where are you now?!
14 years! 14 long years! 
All the way through, the ups and downs, 
the fights and fun, our hangout places
Whom do I talk about it with now
Just a little thought should have crossed your mind
Just a little
I didn't realize when you became so distant
A stranger like
I wish I knew what you had gotten into 
Earlier
I would have tried
I would have tried
I would have stopped
I know I would have
Now all I can do is look back and say , you were there
Once there
And now you are gone
All gone
All gone to ashes
Am I angry, Am I sad..All I know is, I've become numb
Numb to everything.

This is in remembrance to my all time best friend, brother, everything he was to me, he is and he will be to me . 14 years , 14 long years it is. He's not gone. H'es never gone.

Freedom, as we see it!

The Celebrations of independence is  still alive in my street!! Thanks to my neighborhood kids! We complain about Today's kids,but today I saw it live! Happy Independence day!:)    65th year, and the still going strong! 9.00 am, I was still on my bed, until I heard  the chorus of Vande Mataram from outside my window . The boy dressed in white had made everyone stand in a row and was holding a book in his hand and was making the other kids repeat after him. It was a pleasure to watch these kids singing , and all their parents stood outside their balcony with proud smiling faces watching them . After the chorus session a bunch of kids barged into everyone's house and wished all of us a Happy Independence day.   For rest of  us it was just another holiday where we could sit back and relax, but looking at the enthusiasm put forth by these kids really kept me thinking, What are we celebrating for? Have we enough freedom?...

A Blue and Grey Monday!

So the alarm goes off at 6:30 am  on Monday morning, I wake up to the morning sun, facing the window, ignore the cloudy days and the daylight saving which takes its time to kick in .I so wish I could just cuddle up under my blanket and shut that window and go back to sleep. But yeah I am getting paid to wake up , get decked up in formals, put up a fake smile and give in an enthusiastic,' I love to be here with you , this day today', kind of a look and visit my manager who is so eager to meet me and inculcate my mind of thoughts towards his inclination towards work, tools and reports. But I rather ,on the contrary decide to stay in bed, call in sick and say I will be working from home, but if  at all anyone feels the need and desperateness towards me and goes kind of 'I can't work without you! I so miss you at work, how the hell am I supposed to get through this without you', you could probably call me at DON-YOU-DARE. Well the awesomeness of working at home, y...

Give your life a little tinge of adventure, add color , add life, spread your wings , see out there, Go high get the kick and the thrill just by telling that you are in love.
