An ode to hope

An ode to hope

I wonder where you went away,

are you truly dead?

or lost to us all?

either way you cease to exist.

even now that you have gone,

your spirit still lingers long,
i still,

feel you in the Internationale,

hear you in a child's laugh,

see you in spring’s blossom.

and i know most believe your still alive,

but I know it’s a beautiful lie,
why did you go away?
leaving us all astray.

I wonder where you went to die,

in desperation I search every kind eye,

look what i have become,

a mendicant now,
here without hope.

in desperation,

I looked for you in the Styx,

in flowing death,

wishing to find,

remnants of your life,

and

I looked for you in Rishikesh,

in flowing life,

wishing to find,

remnants of your death,
i wonder where you went to die.

hope’s last fleeting steps,

across desolate mindscape,

my last memory,

of the great immortal,

infected with mortality.

i wonder where you went to die

i know why you went to die

I wrote this three days back and reworked it today. Something is off here and i'm not happy with this one :( unfortunately I seem to be getting progressively worse instead of getting better. sigh...

New layout

‘The problem with your blog is that it is not appealing’ said my classmate and he is right. It is unappealing both visually and content wise. In an attempt to fix the latter I downloaded a template and i hope you guys like it.

A shout out to my buddy!

broken, lonely, defeated and dead....

Today on the 25^th of July, my phone, a Nokia n70, has ceased to exist. After battling for her life in a Nokia ‘care’ centre.

Someone very dear to me no longer exists and every time i look at her blank screen and once lively keys I begin to realise the futility of life.
All the moments we shared together will always be edged in my mind but alas they will be the last.



Rest in Peace
you shall be truly missed....

new posts that might come up -

1. my view on life
2. A poem i have been meaning to write

I should be in bed!

Its past 1:30 and I just finished an assignment that is due today! It was given to me seven days back and I had all the time in the world to leisurely work on it. Naturally I was pretty mad at myself at first but I later realised that it isn't really my fault, it's just Parkinson's Law; Work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion.


Anyways
I should be going to sleep now! Before i end this post i would like to share a 'poem' i wrote. Now it's just as bad if not worse that my other 'poems' but it is a little different in terms of style (or lack of it!)

Cliff facing the world,
an uncaged eagle,
perched, endless possibilities,
the world before it,
my broken wing you do not see.

"fly away to any corner,
the world is yours,
yours to make of it,
fly away to any corner."
obnoxious wisdom and shallow care.
my broken wing you do not see?

"bid farewell to the old way
come on now fly away
onward!
onward you shall go!
you shall not retreat
you shall know no fear
in his name all shall fly"
the glint in his eyes
the only illusion that he is alive
my broken wing you do not see?
"cowardice"
my broken wing you do not see!

where do i fly now?
sun down is long away.
"the moon shall bring you no peace,
fly away,
i shall watch you all the way."
blind pillars of hope,
i bid u farewell,
my broken wing you do not see.

how do i say the ineffable?
"you were born to fly,
don't mind the tempest,
stay strong,
calm, after vile storms, how is that wrong."
how do i say the ineffable?
when you see what you say?
my broken wing how can you see?




LOVE IT
OR
HATE IT
ME WANNA KNOW!
