I want to live - with or with out you

If it is possible I don’t want to feel this way

I want to enjoy your absence and ignore your presence

My words I want to keep and get a good night’s sleep

I want to get off this lane and fall-out of pain

My pillows, they know your name; they must think I am so lame

For they are never dry as I dig into them and cry

Wind brings your scent; birds sing your name

Every thought of you makes me insane

Walking through the rain; sending myself through pain

I think of you and fall in love again

If it is possible, I don’t want to feel this way

From this pain I want to get-away

On these lonely banks I no longer want to sit and wail

To a happy place I want to set sail

I want to live 'with or without you'

Inspired from U2's "with or without you" <--(click here to listen)

I will figure it out!

I learned to be Alone, Never thought would be Lonely

I learned to stare at Darkness, Never thought would have to live in Dark

I learned to battle for Victory, Never had to fight to Lose

I learned to soak up my Tears, Never to run them down my Cheeks

I learned to control Hatred, Never had to curb Love

There is always a First Time

I will drown into an Ocean and learn to Float

I will Talk myself into learning Silence

I will learn to Lose a battle and Win a friend

I will learn to figure it out

I can and I will!

Nee Sneham lo, Velige vennelo, konnalaina santhoshamga gadichayanukona ....

Fair Trial

It is so amusing to me....
the choice you have made....
you had the power to screen me off your life....
and you chose it...
even the worst in the world get their turn....
to say something in return....
I never got my last words...

If I did something ....
for you throw me away...
to erase my memories ....
and you think I deserve punishment....
then....I demand...
I demand a trial ... a fair trial.....
you be the judge...
I will be the devil's advocate .....

Why today....
Why today you might ask...
It is today because ..
It didn't happen yesterday.... and it may not tomorrow....

Changing oneself

Should we or should we not change ourselves for others...

Ideal answer: No, we should not...
Practical answer: Of course, why not?

But don't call it change.. call it 'adaptation' or 'mutation' and throw in words like 'survival of the fittest' and Bam! Not only you can change yourself but you also have a scientific theory to support your change.

Do not forget! ... You have to lose some to gain some!... Change yourself, adapt to the world, make yourself comfortable... and lose your 'identity'!
