Pretend for the sake of a pretentious world

Make a wish when you are down.
Save a wordlist and go through it everyday.
Pick a song,listen to it over and over again.
Obsession,the good parts.

Take the people as they are.
Can you,even in disguise?
Feel so far away that you can see a light house
and the mighty sea waves hurling themselves.

Take a picture of a homeless man in your mind,
reach out.

Close the space between and wait for the season's first rain.
Watch a perfect mingling of the nature.
Let your thoughts kill each other and
you feel free to walk on the streets.

Don't try to be the sun,don't try to reach the sun,
feel the power of it and shine like the moon.

Like the dark chocolates you always hide,hide the true self of yours.
Find the trapdoor in concealed footsteps.Take the cakes out of bag.
Remember capering on dusty playground in summer time when you were young.
Listen to the song over and over again.

PS-Incomplete.

I liked this line as i feel the same...
It is not required to reach the powerful...feel the strength that is in u and you will b powerful...

Well written...:)

Seriusly...awsum comosition

first stanza...i cud associate one or more individual with the every line

the rest was reflection of thoughts or actions sumone comes across quite often

and the last part is like going down the memory lane...memoirs we try to cling onto forever....

Without all these any1s life is InCoMpLeTe....and even when one has experienced all this, Life is iNcOmPlEtE....as he desires to experience it one more time.

P.S. : my eagerness to read more of ur compositions remains incomplete as I wait for more of them :-) :-)

Scent of A Woman....

I remember the day,I was carried away by an aroma to a skinny alley of this tainted town. The scent was diffused all over,I guess. And it was a distinct smell amongst the filth. Then what I saw! I saw an extremely beautiful flower blossoming from a rupture of an austere brick wall. No Origin of S pecies could define it. The colours were vibrant,fragrance was maddening. I felt the presence of a Woman. "Oh!Wicked boy get away from her, please maidens don't pick her up!", I cried deliberately. She was dancing with the wind,waving her body like an angel. I sensed her,touched her,watched her devouringly. But Alas!Time passed by quickly and  suddenly she started wilting. I realized the day had turned into dusk; lights were diminishing. She could not live without Sun. She would die in the cold of Night. Transgressors would strip her,molest her,murder her. She had no tomorrow! I wept childishly and hoped that  the Sun would rise again. But your God did not hear my prayer, all th...

Slipped when it was dry...

And walking out from the bedlam session,created long long time ago,grabbing my hedonic thrills...was like playing the packman again and again... Sneaking through a squalid alley...don't really know... My intentions were fragile and maneuvering was nil... All your credos seemed fake.. My naivety made things worse. Thought of starting out right from zero.. Guess it is not the truth... Love the way it is... Ever changing...bleak... Eventually shows the way!

for a piece of land....

The pungent smell of mud in the air woke him up..... the old peasant...was dreaming of rain... and of golden corns.....how he nurtured.... He woke up from his slumber....It was no dream.... the rain outside was reality.... He took his son to the Piece of land...he owned.... He ploughed all across...till dawn... His fragile hands almost gave up...but the old farmer knew the values... He watched his fertile...harrowed land with his sleep-laced eyes...embracing his son... An old man was lying inert on the field.....the old peasant's.... Thick blood was spilled into the mud....was he shot? The woman was silent...shell shocked..... And the son was crying.... The man,unknown in a silk suit was giving solace to her....was rhetorical... He didn't know the rustic language.... The poor old framer wakes up from his sullen dream....
