A Picture, My I-Card and A Ghost

You're what you are
A bit of what you've always been
But a tad more than what I took you for

I'm what I am
I fuck anyone in my way to nowhere
Just like that; more perfect than I was before

You're in my mind
In my longing for what I used to be
You're here haunting me, daunting me as always

I read a letter today
It stunk of my tawdriness yesterday
And guess what, I'm more now

Time doesn't soothe, just lapses anyhow 
Like the underdeveloped surface of my tongue 
Wearing off describing what I have done

Mistakes yesterday, pictures today
Both turned pretty as hell for God's sake 
What remains is what is; warm floors then, cold ceilings today 

I should've held it away from my reach
I should've yelled out before you could speak
For a change, I should've listened to nothing but me 

This is what it is
Some of it is what it's always been
Finding ways to bury the rest, but a buried spirit just ages well

A moment is..

Time lapses like hell. Days ultimately come out to be nothing more than tiny numbers in a calender. Time is a joke. Sometimes a clock in a cell phone runs just too slow, sitting in a park, talking, listening, going back and forth in time. It's like ten minutes let us play with ten years of our lives. You can have a lifetime of speed in five seconds. Lifetime- is beyond measurements if you really live. Five second lifetime is enough then. Satisfaction, fractions of moments, reactions we manage like kids in a hurry, blurry vision of the past and the future, first things and last things, beginnings, ends, prayers, layers of knowing- everything formulates time and happiness. That's when you live. Because otherwise years are as worthless as bored seconds of a dead day. Emotions are like drugs I guess. Being low is as tasteful as being high. Talking to everyone, self talking, listening to everyone, ultimately listening to only self- are mere tries to cheat with time. We're all kids. We're all cheaters. If you're not, better try being one today and tell me later if the day goes any longer.

You brake somewhere and ask somebody, "What's the time?" You don't have a phone or a watch or a clock or even the digital thing in the dead dashboard of your car. Why do you need to know what time is it if the time is ready to escape you anyways? Reach there on time, come home on time, leave a friend on time so you guys don't get in trouble, eat on time, sleep on time because the world gets going at 10, take things from someone on time, tell somebody something on time, plan things in time, think about time in time. Clocks never escape us. Neither can we evade measurements. Numbers are everywhere. But drama- is timeless! A quick rough dead metaphor.

Moments and seconds are different. Seconds can't measure moments. A real moment can't be measured at all. A moment is-

when nothing else matters.

"No past, no future, no problems.. Just the moment"

Urge to let go

Honestly, I am fed up of going to college. I am more than cracked by the idea of having education to build a career, a life and a future. I am torn by thinking about the former two things when I think of what I really do and who I really meet or who I learn from or who I sit collinear with. I don't hate my college. But I just hate the fact that I can't get myself safely out of somewhere I can't stand at all.

It's been two years and in August I 'll be in third year. Positive thinking is a good thing but people say, by their experience which comes from what they have learnt for themselves and what they have been through, that Bachelor of Computer Applications is 'one of the most difficult courses that most people commonly pass in four years'. One extra year. Let's be straight and honest, think real and forget about miracles or magic, I am no exception- in my life so far I know the best about how average I have been. Two years still left.

We avoid talking about things till the last seconds. By 'we', I mean people of my category- the last minute ones. But let's consider the facts now 'cause I am really tired of virtually getting rid of things. I am tired of escaping too at the same time. And the misery is, I am still ready to launch myself away in a second at any moment. It's like I am already sitting on a rocket with the final switch connected to my sub conscious.

Chris sings, "Running in circles, chasing our tales, coming back as we are". I think that's what's happening to me. I know well things should be taken care of. But that only applies till a limit. I am spoiled to get back into seats with classmates. Work spoiled me. Just a little money spoiled me. The more I get deeper into things, the more it gets harder to breathe. And this is not exaggerating. Only my personal God knows how I hold on to something that pushes me away like repelling gravity.

I hope to gain control again. But my God again knows how much I feel like escaping from, not knowing where to though. This is a depression. A craft, flying to an alternate world- not really mine- which I am expected not to eject from. I hope to pass this time like passing a year underwater. I don't want to break this time lapse into pieces of rapid stress.

I know what people ask, "Why now? Why not before?". Sometimes you do get deeper into finding a way to ultimately realize that you must try from somewhere else. If you do turn out to be headstrong through the same puddle, even then it changes your colour in some way or the other. I am changed. And I will be changed. No matter how hard I think of being someone good, by the middle of the day, I end up being only good willed- nothing more.

What is this career thing people sing about anyway? Life is organic to start with. One day we'll be pulp or smoke or just cold skin, till then I guess you just need to follow your will more than following a CV.

People say, "let go of things" and they are perfectly right. Just speak out what you feel, just go ahead and publish your inside to others. But I am trapped. If I really free myself and let go, one of the first things will be relieving myself out of places I feel smothered in. No more answering. No more talks of my career. All I want is a talk of my life and to me, life and career are two separate things. People often live thinking both are parts of the same wheel, perhaps they are right for themselves and maybe it works for them. But people are people. People live in planning, people live in love they fail to understand later, people go door to door with briefcases in hands and in clothes they don't understand, people terrify other people, people find God in things, people rescue others. More or less- I am not people.

I am selfishly my father's son- a simple person with simple wishes inside.

I feel misplaced over and over again. Like I am from somewhere else- not of somewhere either inferior or superior- that is not really the case. It's simply like again and again, second after second I get deeper into The Subconscious Rocket Theory. And 'I realize now, outsider or insider, it doesn't really matter'. 'All that matters is knowing what you really want, AND GOING AFTER IT'.

And don't worry people this isn't a suicide letter or an escapist's will. But a bomb is a bomb right, you just never know! ;)

Ever changing life..

Everyone is wandering around. In hope for something good, in hope for something better, in hope to fix something, or in the deepest of urges to get things simpler. Everyone is fine. Everyone is sick. Life's a cycle, a drama full of characters. Homes are the best. Schools are even better. Homes are asylums. Schools are jails.

Life is a cycle. One moment something is damm right and everything's gone the next moment. Again and again you find a bit of your heart's wishes, and again every now and then you lose your happiness in a way or the other. Everyone's perfect. Everyone's damaged.

Life is a treat. Life is a threat. Its like a heart pulse. One beat is this.. Other is totally that.

But that's the thing! This fricken painting is made up of all colour combinations- this, that, sweet, sour, pretty, ugly, pretty ugly..............

You can't say just once, permanent enough, that you _ _ _ _ life because it just changes all the time with speed of light. Maybe that's the speed of life. Or maybe even faster!!

Control

Sit with me at the back seat and hold the bar behind you or maybe my waist like one of those days when parents traveled on a scooter to fairly far areas of Delhi, with a small portion of that kind of conical front seat left for the younger ones, and stay together with me for our ride. We 'll take our questions and answers and thoughts and happenings to wherever till we feel like as we 're full tanked and full willed. And whatever silly we talk about, we 'll go to the very edges and shores but will stay in control. Sixty one minutes of description of a day particularly full of nothing is just as exciting as is listening to it from the other end of the duo of a wired telephone and a cellphone crying for battery. How about we lose control over that energy we're putting in to keep up the silly work and talk inside out; and feel the straightness of that moment and the silence thereafter!?

Its not that Mr. X wishes for silence right now, listening or Miss Y wishes to shut up because her tongue's dehydrated by each second she amazingly utilizes to fire a round of four words, at least. Neither the realization about the whole silly talk session is bothering them. Tomorrow, because of this and not something more sense making, some part of their lives may get affected.

"So be it!"

But the show goes on.. And we would just not lose control!

To be continued..
