No matter how big is the setback. No matter how badly you are hurt. No matter what people say. No matter how bad you are feeling. You've got to pick yourself up against all odds. Yes ! this is life. Sorry ? You ask me how...? Well ! the answer is ...to Dream And Yearn !!! Cause it is that 1 hope which keeps your soul ticking, that someday Dreams shall be a Reality ! Amen !

I’m born free but living chained.

My wounds are fresh & clothes stained.

Here’s another of my whims of an idle hour.

Albeit nothing’s lost or gained,

Life to me seems two-laned.

Only my side is sans sunshine

And drenched in rain.

I’m wet and cold,

I have no options is what I’m told.

They say I don’t have a voice.

I deny, find reprieve

In a Hobson’s choice

To dream & yearn

So my dreams be reality

Not reality be nightmares.

It was a routine affair by now. Mid sem exams of the 2nd semester were on and I for some reason wasn't prepared well for my Law exam too. I wasn't keen on trying to copy and  besides the strict invigilator too seemed to be paying special attention to me for some reason. As a result I was sitting idle and went into thinking mode. So, out came the following lines at that time...

Set me free of this elusive logic,

What might work is a few good wishes

Or even some black magic.

Yet again I’m sitting idle,

The paper seems like a call from a rival,

I hang up, move on,

Fantasize about my future.

How’s it gonna be like?

Does it echo success?

Or just like my present,

Even that’s in a mess!!!

Perplexed I close my eyes,

Resolving, to stand by truth always,

And never by lies!!!

It so happens in life at times, that you keep wishing for things a certain way, but you don't really act that way. As a result, time passes by and the choices you once had are no longer there. Hindsight invariably makes you feel if only you'd taken different decisions in life.

Many a times

It just so happened

When I wished to say

But my eyes did the talking.

It just so happened

When I wished to stay

But my feet did the walking

It just so happened

When I wished, for her to be around

But fate (seldom by my side) with other plans, came by knocking.

Only when you left did I realize,

Had I done what I had wished.

There would be no regrets, sulking or longing.

Everyone has had times in their lives when they miss someone really bad. More so, when you yourself are the cause for the other person drifting far away from you.
It gets to you so much that you are willing to make any sacrifice or even beg for forgiveness in hope of a reconciliation. The following lines echo the same sentiment.

Missing you ain’t  so good

Wakes up thoughts in my mind.

Listen to me, don’t be rude.

Let me own up,

I’m sure as hell guilty

For everything I screwed.

I still remember,

When saw you 1st time

My heart said dude!!!!!!

You came into my life

Like a lovely breeze!

You brought my life to ease.

Then I broke your trust,

You left without a token.

I swear to God My heart was broken

I beg of you - let me explain

And when I’m done,

Please forgive me...So, there be no pain!
