Friends, My Life!

You are my Butterfly...is a song sung by Crazy Town. But I am not writing this post to tell you about how wonderful the song is, but what wonderful memories it conjures up in my mind. This is a song that probably 6years ago every young soul was rocking too. I was no different. I was enjoying the best years off my life - College!

I was in an all girls convent college, but I am not complaining because I have made memories and friends that would last me a lifetime. It was the time I first fell in love, put on eye makeup, went out pubbing, and realized I could write (my poems were published in the College Mag).

Life was good. I was having a ball. I made two good friends. We bunked classes together, we danced in the canteen together to beat of FIVE, we went to RSI parties, we bitched about classmates together, and the best thing of all, we shopped together. Then we decided to do something crazy...we decided to Gate Crash!

There was a party that one of my classmates had told me about. She said that it was going to be a great hit as there was a DJ who was going to be playing the latest hits and the best part was the BOYS!! She said that her friend's friend was organising this as it was her 21st Birthday. She also told me that she wasnt very sure if she knew her that well. But my mind was already tuned off to her muttering. I was thinking of going there with the girls and gate crashing.

To my suprise when I ran the idea across, my friends agreed and said it sounded like fun. So we bunked the last hour of college and sped off on our two wheelars to Amrutha Castle (thats were the party was being organised). We were a little nervous when we reached. But soon we saw some common friends and felt at ease. We walked in just as the DJ was playing Butterfly. We felt like those beautiful little creatures. Come Come My Lady... the beat was beautiful. We swayed to the music, let ourselves loose. Looking at us the entire crowd joined in. We were laughing and dancing and having a good time...You Are My Butterfly! It was so much fun. Friends are the best thing that can happen to anyone.

Then suddenly, they recognized us. We were actually in a wrong party!! This was an another party that was going on in a different section of the same place.
We were laughing so much that embarrasment hardly touched us. We slowly let ourselves out and when we were safely out in the open, burst out laughing like small schoolgirls. But the song still played in our minds. Come Come My Lady... You Are My Butterfly!

Explicit

When people talk, do they always say what is on their mind? Or do they live in a fear that words once thrown, like stones, can create ripples in the water? I have been thinking of how honest people actually are, when I got the news that honesty is a flexible term and can be moulded according to the situation or circumstance. As I rode my two Wheeler to office today, I looked around on the street and saw 'dishonest' people. Where are they going? What are they going to say next which may not be honest? I was infuriated at the thought that at some point of time I can also be 'dishonest'. So what is honesty? Should people be explicit with their feelings to be considered honest? A friend who comes dressed like a Fashion disaster wouldn't want to hear the words circulating in your head. So you say nice things to her like, oh what a lovely dress! But do you really mean it? Most often NO. Then are we being truthful? We two people fall in love, it is an amazing feeling. We...

What can I say...

What is it about life? We smile when we don't want to. We answer questions even when our lips barely want to move. We look excited when our insides scream for some quiet. I hardly know what life wants out of me? I am not expecting life to give me anymore than it has given me. A caring family, lovable friends, and an intelligent mind. But there is a void inside my soul, which I can't quite understand. Man, they say, is a species that has always wanted more than he has. There is an old story that says that, when God asked man what he wanted, he said he wanted the sight of an eagle, the agility of a leopard, the strength of a lion, and the wise mind of an owl. So be it, God had said. But the animals knew what man actually acquired - the virtue of Greed! Why am I telling you this? Well, I feel the same want. Though its not materialistic, a want is a want, none the less. I want to know what it will take to fill the void inside my soul. I want to know where I am headed. I want to kn...

SILENT TEAR

Every time a tear drop falls, I tell myself never again will it happen. I hug myself and promise the universe, no matter what I will not hurt again. But love makes it so hard for me to hold back all the memories & emotions that flow from my eyes. I keep quiet, listening to my heartbeat slowly. I feel the pain in my chest, but a smile covers my face! How ironic life can get? But we still believe in it. One door closes, a window opens, they say. But in a room with no windows, do we breath, do we stay alive or do we die? I don't deserve this love-less state of mind! Patiently, I waited all these years, believing you would come to me, in a dream, like a dream, like a ray of sunshine through the dark night! I smile at the sight of you, a tune struck a cord in my heart, and I begin to dance! Dancing my pain away? No, a welcome dance. A dance to fresh pain, for a new tear drop on my cold cheek. I stand still now, I suddenly realize that my heart is under an attack. Open, my heart is ...
