Empty skies why so high
Stuff that I try always make me cry
Took my chance when I had my place
Darling why wont you give away
To touch your lips and to kiss your eyes
Lord can I spend just one more time
I'll hold you in my arms and i'll calm you down
Queen of my heart I'll give you the crown
Darling
Hold me just a little while
Hold me just a little
Your lips dont say but your eyes do show
Hollow hearts just rhym no more
Love your skin and I love your smell
But I gotta act like you cant tell
I'll wait for you till the grasses grow
But promise me girl you wont say no
I'll miss you i'll hold you
But you wont even have a clue
Darling
Hold me just a little while
Hold me just a little

The Simplest Things
Most simple things in life are those, which we always seem to take for granted...and yet when we realize the value of the simple pleasure that these things give us, it feels out of this world.
# Finding money in your old jeans pocket, right when you needed it.
# Cooking for the first time and going horribly wrong!
# Early in the cold morning when you see a couple of very old men, probably best friends in sweaters and jackets, slowly doing their morning walk.
# The simple dots in the sky! The stars! When you start to wonder how there are so many and how they form infinite shapes, its pretty amazing!
# When you are sitting in a garden after a fresh shower and you see butterflies flying about.
# A cup of evening tea with nice jazz playing in the background, and instead of a rainy day outside, you see the sun setting behind the city skyline.
# A day with your phone switched off. You get to hear so many different sounds instead of your annoying ring tune.
# When was the last time you made paper boats and sailed them in the rain?
# When you put pepsi in your ice tray and you had your own pepsi-pops!
# A really really really REALLY peaceful afternoon under a tree.
# When you had a bad emergency, and couldn't find a single empty toilet seat.
# When you go in for an early morning shower, and how you conveniently stay 10 feet away from the cold COLD water!

My Picture...
Times are a changing
The waves are coming
The wings are flying
The leaves are rustling
But I, am still waiting
And I'll wait till my picture's done painting...
Shee...I get so senti sometimes...!

Snip !
Why cant the hair cutters ever cut my hair like the way I want them to ??!!!
What gives them the freedom to just cut it the way they feel like? I mean how hard is it to understand a few simple instructions? I probably would have been better off going bald! No mistakes, no unevenness, no fuss! Straight to nothing!
There is quite a line in this one. I thought this would be a nice place, unlike the others. So I wait for 20 minutes in the line. I spend another 5 explaining to him what exactly I want, how I don't want to pay 500 bucks and get my hair straightened, and how long it should be towards the end.
"Sure! I got it! ", says the guy dressed in white. With scissors in one hand and a green comb in the other, he seemed liked the hair terminator. He even had black glasses on.
I think to myself - "Maybe this time I'll finally get the exact style I want." For a moment I start to celebrate. But clear doubts enter my mind as I see the confused look on his face in the mirror. I ask him what happened? "Nothing.", he says nervously.
Of course something's wrong! Something's horribly wrong!
He quickly begins to snip and snap on my other side, pulls my hair a bit, checks something, snips some more and asks me to take a look.
And this is how I look now.
O.K. I am just kidding. It only looked a little better than this.
Ok. It looked a lot better than this, but still not what I wanted...sigh!

Love, Friendship or Ice Cream ??
If love is the best wine you've ever had, then friendship, is all those years that went into the making of the wine. Without friendship, there is hardly ever good wine. It is important to have a good friendship. Cause love grows out of friendship. Mostly. Lets not talk about the other rare lucky bastards.
So how do you define friendship?
Well...if you kick your best friend in the butt. That's friendship.
You pull his/her hair. That's friendship.
You make him/her do your homework, especially when he/she doesn't want to do it. And he/she ends up not doing it. That's friendship.
He/She promises to pick you up for a lecture in the morning. And he/she ends up getting lost on the way and finally asks you to go for the lecture alone. That's friendship.
When he/she shamelessly asks you to buy food for him/her. And you do it. Cause you also do the same thing with him/her often. That's friendship.
He/she makes you laugh and cry, makes you feel angry, makes you feel beautiful, all at the same time, will burp on your face (not sure how many women do that), draw useless and the worst drawings you've ever seen, picks his/her nose (again, not sure how many women do this either) in front of you, will eat more food than you and still insist that they split the bill 50-50...that's REAL friendship!
Now, lets be honest...when you are in love, you wouldn't exactly kick the other person in the butt, would you? You'll gladly do his/her homework, even if it means that you can't go to pick your Nobel Prize. After all, you LOVE him/her. And if you are in love with the other person, you would definitely DEFINITELY, make sure that you pick him/her up on time, ON TIME, and make sure he/she reaches for the lecture. If you're a guy, you would probably get your car so that her hair doesn't get messed up. If you're a girl, then why bother? You would always try to keep her happy...no matter what happens, you will never forget your manners and will not burp or pick your nose in front of him/her and generally annoy her, and of course you'll pay for almost every lunch and every dinner, even though you can't pay your own house rent!
But isnt it a bit...dead and done? I mean the whole picture seems so much more alive, and familiar with friendship. Sure! People do crazy things when they are in love. They bunk their lectures and together, hand in hand, read the latest edition of "Business News". On their birthdays, they buy big fancy cards from the store and wish them at exactly 12 in the midnight! WOW! I mean seriously! How many people do that ?!
But what you can do with friends is you can do absolutely "normal" stuff like go and spend 2 rupees on nimbu paani, or go to a big mall and play hide and seek, or spend an evening at a quiet corner in college and sing songs along with the guitar, have cups of coffee at the university, or plain have oranges and apples together, etc.....and yet, it seems crazy, feels crazy! It feels great!
I dont know why I wrote this, or why I even thought of this...but if I had to chose, any one, out of love, friendship and ice cream...I would definitely chose a lovely ice cream with my lovely friends!
What about you?

The Story Of The Bird And The Fan
Guess who visited me in the bedroom today?? Emma Watson!!
Nah..I am just messing with you. In fact my guest was tiny. She could almost snugly fit into your palm. She flew in freely, through the open window of my bedroom and settled herself on one wing of my rusty fan. Maybe she was searching for something. Maybe she was hungry. Or maybe she was checking out a small part of this big biiiigg world. As I was watching her with interest, for some unknown reason, I began to wish I was a free bird too!
I could fly anywhere I want to, anytime of anyday I want to. It could save me from huge traffic jams! Imagine all the cash I would be saving on fuel! I can pee and shit anywhere and on anyone I want to...see now, thats not something you or I could do otherwise. Although my sex life would be ruined...(not that I have a great one now). Apparently birds finish having sex in the blink of an eye. Kaching! But thats not that bad...considering they have sex VERY frequently!
Hmmm...I wonder what would happen if a cow walked into my bedroom tomorrow?

Candles and Human Scent
Candles are beautiful. And Scary.
They are present to celebrate happy birthdays as well as to mark the funeral of someone's loved ones. It is so dangerous, if it falls prey to wrong emotions, it can cause absolute devastation. Yet, at the hands of a thousand people who are gathered together to protest the wrong, it is that which gives meaning to the word "peace".
Candles have so many purposes in their life...it's awesome! Be a photographer's experiment, be the evening light at a far away village where electricity is as rare as sugar in the sea, be an item to sell at a shop, be something that will spice up the romance, so many!
They come in different sizes and shapes too! Fat, skinny, broad, big, XXL, square, round, oval, amoeboic and all the other shapes and sizes which you can possibly think of and a few which you probably can't too! They even come scented! Man! I wish humans would come scented too...

Overdose of Vacations
Vacations are nice.
I've had almost a month of a vacation now...and its getting quite boring. None of my friends are around and the only few people I get to meet right now are my band mates. I can't wait to meet the parking guy who always keeps on asking for money. Or to eat the pricey chicken puffs. Or to wake up my friends early in the morning to attend lectures! The Mamas! The ever irritating Mamas!! Hell! I want to go to college and attend lectures! I want to get educated!!!...badly!!
