HOME :)

Its one of those moments in life where you look back at the times you’ve had and ponder over where you stand today.


You often wonder where you belong. Who you would run to, or call when you have something exciting say…

As I lay in bed racking my enormously and annoyingly vivid memory, searching for all the people I’ve met and have been close to, the times I’ve spent with them and a part of myself I shared with the, something flashed by brightly.

Shruthi’s dimpled smile. Simren’s dreamy look, Kirtana’s “it’ll be alright” tone, Deepa’s “life can’t f**k you unless you allow it to” attitude, Bhavana’s craziness, Nanditha’s sincerity and determination and of course Shreyas’ carefree nature at once reminded me that this is exactly where I belong.

This is where I would be when I want to laugh or cry,jump, cartwheel or eat fryms!

This is who I turn to.Layout friends.

All of us, for years, have journeyed so far and it has been wonderful!

You are the brightest in my memory and like my memory you shall never fade.

When I am with you I am exactly where I belong.

With all of you I am in my happy place. My home 



So I’d like to start this new year by thanking all of you for being here all these years

And thanks for your being here for the years to come

Lots of love to all of you:D

Yeppie!!!

VIOLET

Purple and small

The green grass stands tall

Hiding and protecting me from all



When the wind blew

You tasted my fragrance

But you refused

To acknowledge my presence.



How many feet have scurried by

How many stepped on my face

Even the bees and the butterflies

They never knew

And just like you

Not once stopped to see

What lay behind this grass-tree



how many hearts I have yearned to feel

how much pain I have concealed

not one soul desired to know

that I, too, am a part of this meadow.



Shrunken and shunned I fall

Behind the green grass that stands tall

Blocking me out from all



When the wind blows

You taste my fragrance

But you still refuse

To acknowledge my presence.
In the darkest day he came


Told me his sorrows

And shared his pain.



Tears streaming down his face

He longed for comfort and solace

A friendly smile

And a few soft words

Was all he wanted from this world.



At once I dropped myself

To his side

Until he began to smile.



At once his face lit up

Like the brightest star in the sky

Oh! What bliss it was to see

Such happiness in his life.



On his brightest day he left

No longer pained

By the sorrows that he felt



As he waved goodbye

He failed to see

That behind my smile

Was my own tear in my eye.

The sun was smiling


The sky was clear

The birds were chirping like they knew no fear



Along came a little girl in rags

(and not to forget those gunny bags)

With a melody on her lips like

She had no worries in life



She went on and on

Until she came upon

A tree where little sobs that were

Filled with sorrow and pain could be heard.



She went around to see

What could be so melancholy

For the day was bright

With blinding light



And there by the roots of the tree

Sat a little dog full of weeps

The girl was agape

But managed to say-

“come here little dog

Don’t be afraid

For I mean no harm

And will keep you safe”

The fluffy do turned his fluffy head

His eyes big and round and scared

The girl picked him up and said

“don’t worry little doggie

My name is Amy”



The sun was frowning

The clouds had gathered

The birds were screaming

With a fit of fear



The little dog winced

And Amy said

“don’t worry little doggie

God is always there”



Tiny crystals from the sky

Fell upon them blinding their eyes

Amy ran as though she followed a guiding light

Until she saw her hut gleaming in the moonlight



She nursed her dog

And from that day on

They were an inseparable lot







One day Amy awoke

to find her doggie gone

she said to herself-“ oh well

he might have found his master

by whom he was looked after”

and with that she shed a bitter tear



but as she turned around

she found

a bunch of flowers on her bed

which her fluffy friend had kept with ail

and there he was wagging his tail!

A DEDICATION TO MY GI BUDDIES

'twas summer
when the sun was bright
shining with all itts might

we all walked hand in hand by the sparkling blue lagoon
and smiled at out friendship-our boon.

we jumped, we laughed,we rolled,we danced
we fought,we cried,we hugged,we laughed
celebrated life and promised
never to leave each other's side.

we walked back home with heavy steps
and as we laid down to rest
we waited for another day of zest.

But today we awoke
to an eerie silence that provoked
streams of tears to flow down our eys
as we realised the gravity of our separated lives
and painfully we succumbed to the reality of life.

we had vowed to always be together
but now we are torn away from each other

it is a cold winter day
and behind a cloudy blanket
the sun is shying away

we are walking on different lands
with a tear in our eye
hoping that someday
we'll all walk hand in hand
once again by the sparkling blue lagoon
and smile at our friendship which is now a curse'd boon.

walking through life

Once in a while you come across people who make a difference in your life. They are one of a kind because they make you feel like you're one of a kind.They teach you stuff and learn some more. They leave behind a part of them in you which you hold on to even when they are not there. That is why when they let go, they still live on. They have made a mark that you can't erase. A change that you can't reverse.So how do you move on when you"re still holding on?
You move on because you know that you will never be the same anymore and you've enjoyed what came your way but now that your time is up here, its your time someplace else. The walk goes on. It never ends....

MY FAVOURITE QUOTES

SIX FEET UNDER

All the roads in life you take
some are bumpy, some a piece of cake.
some are twisted, some have no end
or they are full of bends.
And yet some might cross each other
but in the end, the all lead you six feet under.
A certain place that i visit 6days a week transports me to a certain state that i have otherwise visited three times already!
Now this place is a very friendly place. In fact its so friendly that it takes the sole responsibility of giving you a hands on experience of the hardships of life so that you are prepared for anything. Sadly, by the time we leave this place that we are immensely attached to, we would have experienced every single form of hardship in every degree that there will neither be any more challenges left to experience nor will we have the strenght to withstand it.This place is also very educational. It has taught me every single effect of stress on humans through direct demonstration. I have learnt how to incapacitate even the most brilliant of people through 3 simple activities that should be conducted every six months.
It is in this place that i have understood what ultimate bliss feels like as i have been constatntly shown and have been pushed to experience evrything that bliss is not.
This place is heaven for those who wish to dwell in hell.
And it is in deep gratitude for this amazing place that i have decided to offer coconuts every morning in praise of its greatness!

YOU'RE THE BEST

stuck in the road
don't know where to go
wish you had someone to tell
you how to get out of this hell

looking around
nothing can be found
tired of searching
tired of waiting
exhausted and messed up
how much more of all this can u sup?

so get up and walk out the door
if its closed,break it down and soar
into the sky
just keep flying high

you're not alone
you're not afraid
yuo've got yourself
so just be brave
and keep on keeping on.

don't look back
just keep running straight
this is yuor life
this is your time

the stage is set
the curtains are raised
so let yourself go
for this is YOUR show!
the door is open
someone is walking in and out

the bird is chirpping
its voice in my eaar is shrieking

the sun smiling
maliciously fills my room
until i pass out into the gloom

suddenly the darkness envolopes me
blinds my eye
chokes my throat
blockrs my ear
until i can feel only fear

there is no door
there is no bird
there is no one.

i am lying still
waiting for the dead silence to kill
but slowly i hear a thump
and i can feel the movement of my lump

i am in a haze
in a never-ending maze

my heart is open
and people are walking in and out.

DARKNESS

Sometimes its nice to be in the dark

you could get lost and no will ever find you

you don't have to search for keys

to open the right door

for in darkness,there are no doors

you don't have to wipe away your tears

to hide them from the world

for in darkness,there is no wolrd

you don't have to search for light

to find your way out

for in darkness there is no way out

you don't have to seek comfort

when in the dark

for darkness is comfort

yet people struggle hard

to fight the dark

for they don't realise

that in darkness there lies

a wonderful place full of peace

if you could pause just for a moment please

you too could relish this dark night

after all, if you don't know the dark

how will know the light?

my first poem

i love writing poetry.

writing comes to me in sudden bursts of creativity.

here's the first poem i ve written in my life...

i was 9years old..

TREE

i think there is nothing as lovely as a tree

for it is a unique thing to see

its branches are spread far and wide

and its bloom is hung down by its side

i think there is nothing as lovely as a tree

for it is a unique thing to see!
