Failing words

Words, thank you for failing me

Neither could I write on it nor reflect

Worlds are built and worlds are lost

On people, yet disappear they do in a moment


Words, thank you for failing me

Words are better at failing than worlds all over

Time and time again do you fail

In need and in deed do you forgo


Words, thank you for failing me

For when it is meant to be told

Is meant not be said, and not be remembered

Words, are just as good as nothing!


Hearts are broken, not to be mended or to chill

Hearts are as hearts are.. being.. breathing!

Time to breathe, to be while words be quiet

The broken hearts just breathe and move on


For losing people is not the pain. 

Words spent in deeds  are not the poisons

The memory of pain is only realised, when

Words in silence can fail just as when spoken


Words, thank you for failing me!

What do you mean you do not know?. I meant what I said I...do....not..know.. How can you but not know... Well, you can sit there and keep asking me all the questions to which I know not the answers to. Or you can sit there and count the phonetics of the words.. either way.. I.. do..not...know... Asking questions were easier, but curiosity all around went too far in terms of what was known and what was unknown. †****************† Two friends met at a park after a long time. They eat and had a chat of lives of the world, lives of others universes and also their own. One was scarred, one undecided. Yet all there was was life, in its base form of survival and beyond. The park was a fairly large one. This was one of those Parks which was converted from a lake to a lake side park with business to boot and events to be done as well. Thankfully, apart from the lake (with some life in it) which was feeding ...

Mrutyunjaya

“Mrutyunjaya”- gasped a passerby when the boy moved by during the usual long walks. The usual influx of cheap and effective fitness bands did their trick of taking care of a lot of things. One of the things that they did not, were the gasps, sights and sounds that just were passing by the boy at times more than normalcy. He realized this was a result of an overtly imaginative mind and on top of it the annual plans of doing things including a trip playing themselves out as mirages in front of him. However, that would have to wait for now. Presently, a family squatted in front, at the end of the footpath. A motley group of family:  a middle aged couple, a not so old man and a bunch of surprisingly well behaved kids. And not to forget, heaps and heaps of bags. Add to it the sweltering heat of the plateau was taking a toll and playing out as a power tussle between the perceived couple. The boy, just getting out another mirage of eating/ binging of some hard core rasam rice came out t...

                                         Just coming along…. To begin with, the other day seems to be happening just again and again. Well not exactly in the BMTC buses nowadays, but rather everywhere. I admit, rather sheepishly, I too have been bitten by the mobile bug (read talking on the road). To start off, we just have to rest the argument of the other day for a while and just move to what has recently happened. Not just with me, or my friends or any other individual known to me. It is simply put the seasonal change for all of them. Not just them but the scores and scores of residents across the sub-continent. Yes, it is the Season that I am talking about. Seasons of multiple color’s which are as varied as the amendments to our con...
