Old and sick



Could i close my eyes and think of us
Old and weak
Old and sick
Stupid and dumb
Lazy and not plumb
Grumpy you or grumpy me?
Both of us wrinkly?

Could you close your eyes and think of us?
No tooth to spare 
Or black pair of hair 
Cant move too fast
Or laugh too hard
Our brown eyes
that's become so grey

Of the time i speak
When I am not pretty ,
Our brain is slow
And you are not smart
Yet will i love you,
Will i love you enough?
Will you hold my old hands?
Will you love me enough?
For i aint pretty and 
You are not smart
Will we love us?
Will we love us enough?

For, this is the time
I will need you by my side
As growing is the deafness
And plummeting is our sight
Will you help me walk the stairs?
As I help you read the paper
We complain and take our medicines
We laugh and play with little kids
We forget, forget and keep forgetting
Yet everyday you kiss me good morning


And even in the darkest days of our life
I pray we shine
With love so pure
and life lived to the fullest

Am only human, too much on my mind, you only add to my pain Oh my mother don't know But she has nothing to worry about She asks me to help her But i cant move a feet She is tired of physical pain I am tired of my thoughts At nights i awoke, there was a fight i had to win Asked for help And now the enemy is butchering me My body lies in my bed Lifeless I cant move a feet I can only see My heart is so heavy Weaving thoughts and we...

My Lucid Dream

I want to spread my arms As wide as i can Close my  eyes  Shut everything off And let myself go Fall so deep And as i fall I want to fly  As high as i can go Live my dream Feel the excitement of flying No more as a dream No more so real yet so dreamy feel The clear blue sky above me And oh so far the land is I rest then upon the green grass ground See the beautiful white clouds Like a hot air balloon In the sky I see the beautiful mountains Oh so beautiful they are As i am flying  Only my eyes and memories have them captured My eyes open I am in my bed But i cant let go of my dream So i wana spread my arms As wide as i can Shut my eyes off And let myself go Fall deep  Fall so deep  And as i almost touch the ground I will find my wings....

A strange friendship

Lately I haven't been a morning person. Well who am i kidding i have never been a morning person. Anyways, today i had to visit a temple nearby because my mom wanted me to. So in my own time i went there. I organized my puja thali. And when i was doing so I noticed a little girl who was looking at what i was doing fascinatingly. There was this goat as well who was also fascinated by some flowers and a raddish i had in my thali.  I started doing my puja, fully aware the goat was eyeing my puja thali.  In our culture we first offer puja to lord ganesh. Only then we offer puja to other gods. After doing the same, offering my puja to lord ganesh,i went inside the main temple of Bhairav. She tagged along and later i realized so did the goat.  The goat was disturbing  in a cute way. And the lil girl forcefully offered her help by holiding my thali for me. While i was kneeling down and doing my worship, she was making offerings from the thali herself.  And our b...
