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.

American Tangled

After a hiatus, here I am, back ! I decided I won't be writing until I touch the border of the United States Of America! It's a race my friend said. And it was! One year down, the process..Naah, I won't be talkin bout it! It's a long process like chemical reactions and pathways involving a fatty acid which has a never ending chain length. I have a lot to catch up on, after the long break . Two weeks down, a lot happening. Well right now I have a bunch of guys hanging around, screaming at top of their voices like competing who can scream the loudest and jumping and dancing and  totally lost. Yeah a bunch of totally high hit dramatic boys. Hah, I've been recording the few of their acts, including their gay acts. It's funny though to watch them. Recorded and saved! :) United states of America ! My daughter studies in America , my parents are saying it aloud. But what exactly do I do? Hah. I love this picture which i stole it form someone's wall...--------...

It's Love all the way

“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.”  ―  Albert Einstein So today is your day. Go make a lot of mistakes. It's called the Valentine, the worse thing which will happen will happen anyway if it has to ! 100 years is all you have! And just one day to cherish.Tell her,fall on your knees, just say it. Do everything grand, say it ...say it big. Come out with your best poems, add humor, laugh about it , worse you might be slapped. Slapped and loved. Don't be a bird in the cage.Your only safe, not happy. 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. Write letters, Tell it with the red roses or a candy bar. It's all the love that matters which is stored big in your hearts. So just say it! Don't know who is in love with you? It's easy. Stick around all the people whom you eye on. Spread love. Love everyone, may...

Unpredictability rules!

I’ve given her the best possible education... What more could I do? I pay her music master fifteen rupees a month , her school fees amount to fifteen rupees and I pay ten rupees for her school bus..... ‘Yes’ he replied, ‘by securing endless adjournments.  Life today is most expensive. Well , those lines were stolen from a book I was reading last night , the Man-Eater of Malgudi , written by R.K Narayan.  I’ll get back to this as to why I started off my post with these stolen lines.  The START:  I did have an eventful weekend (That’s what I would say!) Sunday morning: I woke up at 10 am and decided to visit the church as I had nothing much to do. I started home with 150 Rs in my wallet (that’s enough to survive) and with two debit cards. After my visit to the church I decided to go on a shopping spree as I was still left with some money in my card. ‘Some’ over here meant exactly 1289 Rs only! Well , good enough to think of street shopping in Brigade road. Af...
