breathe
Steal you away..
You wake up at 8:30
And hurriedly get ready for office
And reach there by 9
There you do your work
Have a cup of tea in-between
Sometimes even a sandwich
Do social surfing and read online stuff
Talk to your boss about the work at hand
Feel drowsy sometimes and hence talk to some friend
Keep on chatting with them and so comes the lunch time
You have a controlled diet and prefer fruits
Over the artificial food being served
You rely much on water cause you think you’ll put on weight
And then the clock stucks 6
And the taxi arrives for you to go to hostel
Before that you spend the memorable times with your friends
With whom you’re open and share your life and options and decisions
And then you return to hostel and have dinner
And talk to your family whom you love the most
Your sisters and mum and dad and grandma
And then you pen down some of your thoughts
And save it for future reference
And then finally after some here there talk with roomies
Sleep hugs you and takes you to dreamland
I want to steal you away
From your daily hectic boring schedule
Not for always but for a week
And take you to a wonderful place
And spend time with you
Talk to you, know you better
Make you smile
Give you flowers
Tease you by calling names
Want you to come back at me for teasing you
Want you to enjoy nature and feel the breath
Want you to stand with your feet on my feet and walk with me like that
Want you to tickle so much that you can’t breathe due to laughter
Want you to cherish the marshmallows and strawberries
Want you to feel love and freedom everywhere around you
Want you to leave behind every trouble and worries at bay
Want you to feel like a Queen and me your butler
Want you to feel the last rays during sunset
Want you to fall asleep with a smile on your lips
Want you to hold my elbow even while sleeping
Want you to be YOU so that we can be WE
And wake up daily with this feeling of completeness
It all came down on me at once..
It was raining when I left office
Had a stressed day
Was in an arguement with my senior
But then apologised and patched things up
But still, I shouldn’t had yelled at him
There I was in the bus
All wet from the rain
Sudden rainfall and you’re heavy
Thankfully got seat in the bus
And that too window was not being closed
And that was the last available empty seat
Rested my ass and exhaled
Closing my eyes and reminiscing the happenings of today
I have to control my tongue
Anger was correct I know that
And it was more irritation and frustration
And so and so
Went down the memory lane looking at the rain outside
How I have reached here, drenched and frustrated
And there it was, everything right in front of me
All the good days, bad days, ugly days
And time just flew away all in a flash
One blink of an eye and I was deserted
As if I was left behind, far behind
And all others, everyone have gone forward at lightning speed
It not only made me sad and devastated but also happy for all
As atleast they are doing good with their lives
I was left staring at my own reflection on the window glass
Which was dirty, misty and that blurred reflection said it all
Just then a drop of tear fell from my eye
And in the window reflection, I saw it’s course down my cheek to edge of the lip to the chin
And pretended(mostly to myself) that something entered my eye
Due to this windy raining evening
And when I saw if someone caught me shedding that one tear
I saw that no on was there for me or atleast looking at me
All were occupied with their own troubles or the temporary phase of happiness
And then I reached my stop
Gathered my bag, excused myself till the exit
And was down again in the rain and all drenched.
I am all yours..
I think of you day & night,
I want you always by my side,
You make me feel complete,
In cold, you’re the soothing heat.
We both are one just be sure,
Our relationship is very pure,
Please don’t worry my baby,
For you I will do things crazy.
The brain is mine but its thoughts are yours,
The eyes are mine but its vision is yours,
The nose is mine but its breathe is yours,
The lips are mine but its words are yours,
The heart is mine but its beats are yours,
The world is mine but I am all yours,
In short, I love you a lot.
You think of me day & night,
You want everything to be right,
Just keep on smiling,
You will be my Queen & I will be your King.

Run against yourself!!
All our life, we believe in running. Some run from home to work, some from work to home, some from one work to another, some on the treadmill, some in the games played in laptops, some from responsibilities, some from laziness, some towards comfortness, some towards each other, some towards one another, some from each other.. Whoa so much running and yet we’re never planning to stop!!
Take a break.. Have a deep breath.. Have a moment for your ownself.. Have a life.. That ideal Peaceful life..
Life is not about a sprint, it’s about a marathon. Running hard for a small period & then gasping for breath won’t help much. We have to be consistent. We have to run at a general average speed, so that no matter how pumped up we are or how tired we are, we must try to hold on to that average speed & maintain it. Hold on to the base speed. That’s what will take your far.
Competing is good. But we have to first make sure we compete against the right opponent.
Choosing the RIGHT opponent is difficult.. Him or Her or Them or Me??
If you make any other guy your opponent for competition, then you’ll aim to be like them & in the process you’ll lose your individual uniqueness or identity. And also, once you surpass them you’ll have to find another opponent & then again do the same drill.
But, let’s say if you choose yourself. You got many advantages like you will try to be(and you will definitely be) a good human being than what you were yesterday. You will try to improve yourself with such an opponent whom you know so very well & surpassing them will not only take wits but will also give you a profound sense of happiness. Run from the monster inside you towards the angel in you. You don’t have to keep on changing your opponent’s, because what you are today, you weren’t yesterday & you won’t be tomorrow. Tomorrow also you will evolve.. Today you’re evolving.. Yesterday also you evolved..
Choose the best for you.. Your friends, family, near & dear ones are the energy boosters in your life, who will help you overcome the hurdles you face in this marathon.. Seek their help, heed their advice but ultimately do what you think it’s good for you because you gotta face the consequences of whatever decision you take, not any of them.
Keep winning against yourself,
Darshith.
