Gibberish Wisdom

I just realised it has been a really long time since I have posted on this blog - been more than 4 months. Why you may ask? All I can say is I don't know. My blog thrived on me and my emotions providing a foundation on which whatever was written, I felt a need to communicate and share with the world. However, in the recent past, I have felt an increasing need to stay away from writing - for when you write what you feel like, you can come back to it, which needn't always be the greatest experience, to stay away from emoting and people for it leads to nothing but disappointment and letdowns.

Something that I wrote in office.. Highly disconnected but a strong reflection of my state of mind.

The blinking of the eye

The flipping of the hair

The shrug of the shoulder.

The leaves jostling in the air

The branches carefree

The noisy fan.

The thak thak on the keyboard

The dhinchak ringtones of mobiles

Polyphonic and loud.

Debates and arguments in the air

The falling drops of rain

The breaking of crisp biscuits.

Whiling away time

Awaiting the beginning

Of a new day

Of a fresh start

Of a renewed me.

Caught in a web

Unable to break free

Shackled by emotions

Shunned by society

Stunned at letdowns.

A smile

An enveloping calmness

A new found confidence

For I am what I am

Take it

Or leave it.

The thud at the doorstep
Marking the arrival of the newspaper,
The aroma of freshly ground coffee beans
Fill the air
Making the filter kaapi
All the more delectable.

The pitterpatter of the rains,
Jostles you out of sleep
Wanting to languish
Longer in the arms of the bed.

Children at bus stops,
Awaiting the end of their holidays
With glee unbound
Cars overtaking cars,
Buses honking,
"Side please, side"
The call of the vegetable vendor

Looking out of the balcony,
The radio playing in the backdrop
Staring at the golden expanse
That is the sky
Birds chirping
As they fly past electric cables
Chimney chutes

Good Morning
The pleasant breeze embraces.

There are flashes of light in life,when everything falls into place,dissolving all self doubt and questions leaving the mind crystal clear,looking straight ahead at what life has to offer. In one strong wave, all the resurfacing thoughts are washed away, leaving behind new sand awaiting fresh marks of you. Waiting for you to walk on those pebbles, to be trampled upon by you... to hurt you with sharp ends... to be washed into the sea and to settle at the bottom of the ocean... unimportant, immaterial,irrelevant.

Ultimate genness. Sitting in the lib - I refuse to mug... my mind listens and comes up with this.


The ways of the world
are harsh my child
am there for you
when you need me
when you are hurt
and fallen
I shall pick you up
and tell you
Its not worth you.

You mean the world to me baby
But this world is mean to you
I promise
To protect you
To keep you unharmed
You promise
To not care
about what this world has to offer.

Looking at you
Makes me wonder
What is it
That has made all the difference.

The day is brighter
The breeze is cooler
The air smells lighter
What is it
That has made all the difference.

Distances that were short
Have become long
Jokes that weren't funny
Make me hysterical
What is it
That has made all the difference.

Riding high on life
Everything seems to be easy
And light
What is it
That has made all the difference.
