The bright blemish-less sky
The depth of your eye
The Mediterranean hue
Everything is clear blue
A stroke from my paint brush
The early morning hush
Waking up in your warm embrace
I find me in an ecstatic place
You filled all the cracks
I stopped looking at the flashbacks
You healed all the hurt
Life now is one big dessert
Love heals
Love reveals
That life is worth more than one chance
Worth more than a look askance
Everything thanks to you, my romance.

25 Random Things About Moi!!!!
I just noticed this note flying around Facebook with all the cool, uncool and nerdy ones doing this...........Wherever I saw there was this note giving me the come hither looks and yes I admit I capitulated enough to make an attempt to write the same.
25 random things about me for all who were jobless enough to wander to this page and moronic enough to read it......(snigger snigger)....Mean me......!!!!!
1) I am LAZEEEEEE.....I decided to write this 3 weeks ago, wrote the title and saved the draft a week ago, actually started 4 days ago and posted it today....Need any more evidence???
2) I think Micheal J Fox is one of the cutest son-of-a-guns around in the world. Don't ask me to elaborate further for your own health.
3) Time and again I obsess over the question " Did I throw a coin over my shoulder into the Fountain De Trevi in Rome?"
4) I think I threw the coin facing the fountain and not over my shoulder. Legend has it that if you throw a coin over your shoulder into this fountain you will visit Rome again and I sooooo desperately want to go back there again and hence the obsessing part.
5) I think I do not like much of reality. That would probably explain why I like Fantasy Fictions to the hilt. I simply loved the Twilight Series, Harry Potter Series and Aisling Grey Guardian series.
6) I diss the Inheritance trilogy and the Dark matters omnibus. But yes, the concept was good...nevertheless if I wanted to read so much of physics I would have done a goddamn B.Sc in physics.
7) At the cost of repeating myself, I repeat - I love the Harry Potter Series. JKR rules....but naming Harry's second son Albus Severus is where I draw the line.
8) I hate Delhi'ites. If you are one and you are reading this and it hurts your feelings.....well.......ah.....I don't give a rats arse.
9) I suck at invention. All the poems and stories in my blog have a personal episode behind it. I can't concoct even if my life depended on it.
10) Italy is my home away from home and I wouldn't be satiated short of another 50 trips in the least.
11) I will only marry that guy who will take me on a month long honeymoon in Europe; Italy, Greece mandatory. ( Other requirements are that he be less than 30 yrs old, 6ft tall and drop dead handsome :P )
12) One of my complaints in life is that - After 2 Masters Degrees in USA, and hordes of friends from all nations, I do not boast of a single Gay friend. Now what else should a girl do to get herself the perfect best friend????
13) I fell asleep while making this list up.
14) My father is the first brightest star I can see from my bedroom window.
15) Me thinks Euphemism is fun at times.
16) If anybody has any preconceived notions about me which are totally not me, I move sun and moon to make sure that's how they see me till the day they cough up and die.
17) I firmly believe that humanity's greatest illusion is the belief that you can change a fellow human being.
18) I think for every 18 years of the female species, the male needs to be 120 years for a match in the intellectual and emotional maturities. That's why we never get the perfect man for us....They are all dead and underground by the time they are perfect for us.
19) I am NOT a feminist. Feminism advocates the theory of equality of the sexes. I believe the sexes can never be equal. Females are unarguably superior.
20) I like riling up people. I believe the utterly secure can never be riled.
21) I have the memory of an elephant. I never forget ever. When I say I have forgotten something people know I am lying ( Do not use this point for simple day to day affairs. It is perfectly okay for me to forget where I misplaced the TV remote); which also explains why I suck at lying and concoction. For more clarifications refer to point 9 in this list.
22) Edward is my name for the perfect man on earth. I think an Edward exists for every female on Planet Earth.
23) I am waiting for my Edward.
24) I believe my fairy tale expectations in life and romance are foolish on my part given my experiences with the reality of life.
25) Nevertheless I still have fairy tale expectations and I believe in the goodness of people. And yes I know that I am a fool.
Cheers,

A Dream
Enough of poems people....My attempt at a song
I have a dream in my eye
All the longings and a sigh!
Wish it were true my oh my
It’s resounding in my cry
I’ve worked so hard
I’ve come so far
Yet am no near
Haven’t lost all my fear
Its killing me oh yes it is; All the waiting
Frustrations, demonstrations, allegations, agitations;
Wanna replace ‘em all
With outstanding ovations
I have a dream in my eye
All the longings and a sigh!
Wish it were true my oh my
It’s resounding in my cry
At times I lose hope
Think of giving up
Everything is a test of endurance
I’ll strive to carry on
I don’t wanna take the easy route
The challenge is in getting there
Am choosing hope against hope
And am gonna make it there
I have a dream in my eye
All the longings and a sigh!
Wish it were true my oh my
It’s resounding in my cry

A Single Day Late!
Was browsing the net and accidentally got lost....came across this poem in a Philippines website...
we were friends,
we were friends,
we had been for so long,
but i wanted something more,
and it didn't feel wrong
i felt that i needed you,
and now i know i do,
but fate is my enemy,
because i truly love you
i never could tell you,
i thought you were taken,
how could i have so,
foolishly mistaken
that all that time,
that i loved you,
you had felt the same way,
and loved me too
the secrets i carried,
you carried as well,
and i would have carried them,
to the depths of hell
for you.
for you.
now i love you,
and i burn against fate,
for i declared my love,
a single day late
you looked to the floor,
and i asked what was wrong,
and the truth spilled out,
but it didn't take long
to realize that you'd,
felt the very same way,
and loved me the same,
but for one single day
you'd finally accepted,
i would never love you,
and gave up on me,
because you never knew
that every time I touched
you I cried,
and when I said I liked to be friends
I lied,
I want you so badly,
I've just myself to hate,
for i was oblivious,
and a single day late
just a single day late.
so if you ever love someone,
and they just don't know,
tell them and tell them,
and just tell them so
because worse than rejection,
and never having met,
is the most horrible feeling,
of having regret
i can't go back,
i can't change a thing,
but you've still a chance,
so do it for me
get up and call them,
or go for a walk,
i ruined my chance,
when i could've talked
all that time,
we'd felt the same way,
but she left me alone,
just a single day late
so tell them right now,
please don't hesitate,
because just one day could be,
a single day late

Pell - Mell Thoughts
There are times when my imagination goes zoom full speed....poems, articles, scripts, thoughts, all float around in the small cramped space that I carry on my shoulders all day....And then Zilch! Its all gone......Nothing there any more...no thoughts no feelings nadaa....nothing to share nothing to tell....I panic; Wondering why there are long gaps between my works....
On one hand, I try to console myself into believing that I write when lightning strikes, when the ground beneath trembles, when the moon is a blue hue, when doves cry --- Have you people caught on or do I need to ramble any more??? Lol...Basically when I feel strongly, passionately about something....But then shouldn't a writer also have a dispassionate element within? A writer should be able to write about anything right? Or have I got my concepts wrong and am mixing journalists with writers??????
What can be a source of inspiration? 'Tis true, its a matter of perception. It could be a bird singing, a child smiling, a boring class, roomie's snore.......All of Europe's dazzling beauty invoked nothing in me to write.......All of America's splendor sparked nothing in me to color this virtual canvas with......As I tread the tiny stone bridge that connects to stone steps leading to my apartment complex, I stop a moment to watch the fall colors on the trees and the puny stream that flows amidst them below the bridge, I think of my mom, my friends and the heart I've left behind and I feel the longing to pen the emotions......I am online, chatting with Ting and our conversations cover the important, the unimportant and the utter nonsense and in her smile and our memories I find the spark to light a flame in me which connects the thousand dots before my eyes to make a picture........In my lonliness, I cover my ears to stop the shouts of my past that haunt me on some nights, the madness, the pain, the tearful rain; all the mumbles of my nightmares become poetic words with which I decorate my present.....
Inspiration! You cant find it.....It finds You.................!!!!!

Impish Delights!
It was a dull gloomy day in June
'Twas her smile, as bright as the Moon;
I saw her by the bulletin board,
It caught my eye, the vision and lights,
Showed me a hint of all the impish delights.
Girl friends and confidantes we soon became,
Stood by each other, hurdles we overcame,
Pranks and naughtiness galore;
We matched our wits, even had cat fights,
Evening and Nights; all the impish delights.
Fell in love, got our hearts broken,
Consoled each other, Said or Unspoken,
In a depressed moment, I cried out to my lost love,
She said “Twas for the best that it’s over, Needn’t be stuck on one forever”;
“Scores of Handsome boys and Celebrities to ogle all over”,
Laughed and cried, carried on with might
Those were our glory days of impish delights.
Today am seven seas afar,
Some worldly wise, fewer words spar;
Things seemed to have slowed down a notch or two,
Feels like I have split into two, one here, one with her;
I saw a face in the crowd, a known smile,
My imagination took fanciful flights,
Gosh it reminded me of those impish delights!

An SID original copy
Doing More with Less
We the unwilling
Led by the unknowing
Have done so much
For so long
With so little
We are now qualified
To do anything
With nothing
For the really really ignorant SID == SID :)

A KPR original...................!!!!
In your eyes
Call it destiny call it fate
Why we met oh so late
Twas a phase when I wasn’t merry
Truth be told I was very wary
Of people places things feelings
I had lost lots of life’s meanings
Then we met as the gods’ willed
I heard you first and then I stilled
My first reaction wasn’t love or contempt
It was just indifference to all your attempts
We were kind and polite and there in began my journey into light
Boisterous you were, taking initiation took you far
Wasn’t long before you were crowned czar
In your eyes I saw a glimmer
Of hope and truth, excited shimmer
Kind, friendly and a leader you were
I never noticed that you were near
I don’t know how the three witches of fate
Spin the yarn of our mortal life
But it just happened on one starry night
You can call him the Judas in this story
He may have been a traitor,
But for us an apostle
For he was the catalyst,
If only for a small fraction
Twas the first moonlight; for this strange reaction
Our first walk, we held hands;
It drove me to distraction
People can call it what they want
I know it’s not just physical attraction
In your eyes I saw a glint
Of warmth and trust, love in a hint
I noticed things that were obscure
It was now clear as never before
I don’t know how the time flew by
How everything to this day comes by
It was wonderful the journey till here
Passionate considerate, more than a mere
We were confidantes without a fear
Twas joyous as a love filled song; hear hear!
One fine day you left me bereft
It all just happened so abrupt
I can’t fathom the whats and the whys
Now I just want to stop all these cries
I wish you peace, and don’t begrudge these bends
I have known all along later that you want us to remain friends
It isn't like I dint try but things are too raw; maybe within time it wont seem like a war,
In your eyes all along
I saw this desire, yes, for this song
Today I am giving what you so long
And yes, this really is our song
~ KPR
