who cares....

Being in the doldrums,
Bad luck all around.
The track never changes.
Its cycle that keeps going.
Its like the gift that keeps giving.
Who brought this on?
Who cares.
You make your own destiny,
Mostly everyone gets it right.
Some never get it to make it.
Everybody laughs,
Flit and Flutter like butterflies,
and some just watch them afar.
But who cares anyway,
Everyone has problems,
They learn from it.
Some keeps having them
and never learn from it.
But who cares anyway.
Never preach to the masses
When you can't get things right.
Who cares if you live or die.
You are nothing just butt of the joke.
You are the laughing stock of fate.
But who cares anyway.
Its all a bloody illusion,
With an oxymoronic reality.

Black....

I know what I did.
I know I can't change.
Thunder and Lightning.
They don't scare me.
The torrential downpour.
It doesn't bother me.
The flashbacks don't change,
The present remains the same.
The future remains hidden.
Words of wisdom afloat,
from people strangers to me.
I close my eyes and meditate,
They say you should see white.
But I can only see black.
It feels familiar,
Its like deja vu,
I recognize it,
So I know what to expect.
It may be black,
It keeps me safe.
For now the rain stops,
Being in this ebbing black.
I just wish I could fade away
With this calming black around me.

kyun hai...

Kyun Gumsum Hai Zindagi.
Kyun Chupsi Hai Bandagi.
Kyun hua yeh dil ke lagi.
Kyun rooti hai dillagi.
Naa jaane kya deewangi,
Lubaye is khamoshi ko.
Vaade Jhoote,
Dosti Nakli.
Bas Rah Gayi Anjaani,
Is Ajnabi Duniya Mein.
Tanhaye Apnaya Mujhe.
Mayoosi Thama Mujhe.
Kyun Poora Lagta Hain?
Yeh Akelapan.
Koi tho Samjaye Na

Its anything....

Its a whim.
Its a choice.
Its a fantasy.
Its a dream.
Its a story.
Its a song.
Its a sense.
Its a beauty.
Its a mystery.
Its a conundrum.
Its a state.
So many words to describe,
So many versions to know.
It all comes to one thing.
And thats love.
An enigma of sorts,
A surprise to many
Whats in store,
Nobody knows.
Just guesses
To find the way.
That always leads
To the answer in waiting.

A while @ subway....

Waiting for the train
At the subway station.
Trying to count
away the minutes
till it arrives.
Reality goes really slow.
The wait prolonged
At last it did come.
Only a few minutes to enter.
With all the madding crowd flocking.
Invariably pushed into

some random door.
Then gazing around for a seat to sit.
The eyes doing its job locates one.

Settling down heaving a sigh.
Eyes not resting scans around.
To see the fellow passengers
And slowly setting its sight on one.
A face that just stands out for awhile.
With chocolate brown hair
and eyes to match.
With the Sun-kissed

tone of a skin color.
Never would've imagined
seeing something like this.
Messy hair parted one side.
A green shirt reading Hawaii worn.
Holding a novel engrossed in it .
Unaware of me staring
At him with subtlety.
Never once did the eyes
want to leave the sight.
The mind slowly curious
to see the novel's name.
Straining the neck
not wanting to be obvious
Hunts to learn the name.
"The way through the woods".
How apt for the situation?
As the eyes wanted to wander,
away from the woods of reality
to eventually find its way for a while
By looking at the face
that mirrored beauty.
The whole while
came to a slow end.
As the train came to
a screeching halt
Only for the face
to walk away.
Oblivious to the eyes watching,
Leaving a pleasant afterthought.
Thats always cherished forever.
