If I had my way..

If I had my way,
I would be in your arms,
crying and laughing in between.
Dissolving into the bliss,
of being together.
Again.

If I had my way,
I would be your world,
and you, my God.
Revolving like binary stars,
in our own private universe.
Again.

If I had my way,
my eyes would not be wet now
and yours, not closed.
Wet and dry,
blind and cry.
Again.

No, I never had my way.
I always let you choose.
And you chose,
to leave.

My world, now godless,
chaotic and dead,
screams my pain,
silently. Through,
what seems a smile.

Only if I had my way!...
I would not be a dead thing now.

I don't know why I took so long to discover your blogs !!! But no matter how late I am, I'm loving them all...Its beautiful..Few people have the gift to express exactly how they feel...I admire the bold expressions of pain and sarcasm in both your poems and also your writings...Sarcasm unlike some people believe does not stem from an uncaring attitude...It comes because you care....I should know because I am the same at times...Wish you the very best...Hope to see more of your amazing writings ....

Thanks Sith.. :)
Yeah, sarcasm is a veil to hide your pain. No many understand that.
Love..

Mookkile Pallu.. :D

Actually, this is a post which needs an amount of humor sense and understanding of Malayalam. If you dont have either, please feel free to browse other posts, or leave for better work. :) And yes, the saying in malayalam "Mookkil Pallu Mulakkya" [Literal Translation- "Tooth growing in Nose" heheh!!! It just means, 'getting old before something that is usually done, is not done.' (Any better interpretations are welcome.:) ) ] So, for the ones who are carrying on, I hope you do really have a bit of common sense. :) Cos, otherwise, the post wont make sense to you.. :) Now, this was a chat, I had with a chat-friend of mine, one month or so before..While I was browsing thru my old chats, I found this piece and felt the analogy beautiful.. :) Sharing it with you... It was kinda 9 o' clock I guess.. An excerpt. Changed from our chat lingo, a bit, for better understanding. " Him : So you had a bonanza this time.Onam n bday. me : :) yeah.. but it was no bi

I dont see much of selfless love around in the world. A mother's love is said to be the best form of love for humans. Even that is cos, the baby is hers. It is her own self or a part of her she loves.. :) The fact that an adopted child is not loved as much by a mother proves my point.

Love Thyself. :)

The bestest thing about being me is that I am unique. No other me in the whole goddam world. Know how beautiful it feels? :) To be me? I love being myself, with all the flaws and goodness in me. Once, I remember telling a friend of mine when asked how I could love people so much, "You love yourself first. Then you start seeing yourself in others. And then you love others as much." Corollary, "If you can't love yourself, you cant love others." [Same as what Jesus advised. ' Love others as you love yourself. '] And trust me, when I love the way I am, it is easier for me to love others. Including their imperfections. And anyways, it is their imperfections that complete them. :) Take care guys.. It feels awesome to be me. :) Dont you too? Cheerz! A happy Durga :)
