Lost in Time


Misty mountains, take you back,
to a place, you held close to your heart.
Cool breeze, reminds you of those warm nights
stitched into time, with a tread so fine.

Heart aches, to go back in time.
To do things, we didn't believe in.
Looking for a chance, to rebuild a moment.
Searching for something, and finding nothing.

Warm smell of wood, eyes tear up
Shawl pulled around, but soul bared.
Memories come, memories go
Thinking of wishes made on a shooting star.

Echos of the past, a tug at the heart
Shadows creeping out of the corners of the mind
A sound heard, a voice forgotten.
Faces seen; a person you have never been.

Soul searches, and finds
itself, lost in time.
Lost in time, Lost in time, Lost in Time.

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...

Closure!

What does it mean to not feel anything? To numb the pain that is caused because you felt too much? I have seen break ups in my life, and I have seen friends going through this torturous thing. But what I haven't realized is that, why people need answers to find closure in a relationship? Yes, granted that we have loved that special someone for one, maybe two, maybe more, years. And we expect that, that special someone actually cares about what we feel. But the truth is in a dying relationship, no one actually cares. I mean come on, if they did, why would it die in the first place?? So when we love we love completely...blah blah blah. But when things go wrong, like for instance, your boyfriend/girlfriend cheats on you...or when they act differently to a very crucial situation you are facing, it's taken that the relationship is going to the dogs. When the going gets bad, believe you me, the bad doesn't get going. It only gets worse. And when that happens we say the words, ...
