at the shut of an eye


The morning sun gracefully rises from the abyss, spreading rays of crimson light, dissolving darkness and those lovely dreams. Nature plays numerous roles in one’s life. She can be your friend, family and LOVE. On the contrary, she can ambush life and be an incomparable destructor. Despite the demise of dreams with every fresh dawn, we dream on.

Dreaming has always been my passion. A warm blanket (to cling on to), a little cuddling up on a sofa or a bed and there begins a neo, eternal journey. A voyage through the skies and stars. A voyage so familiar yet so mystique. The uncanny period of life more powerful than reality, paints pretty pictures of the dream job, dream paycheck, dream bike, dream car, dream house, dream love, dream kiss and other endless desires, which are invariably non-existent. A period of intoxication you want to savor forever. The sweet pains you want to relish for more than a lifetime.

However, good things come with unwanted supplements. This intoxication could sometimes give you the worst ever hangover. Those nightmares of god forbidden death of your loved one, followed by groping for your phone and buzzing him in the middle of the night, just to check if he is alright. A smiley that comes as a response to your unwanted fear, romantic (I know), but scary nevertheless. Those examination oriented dreadful dreams, where you are pressing the nib of the pen against the paper so hard, but the ink refuses to follow suit. NERVE WRECKING! A loud yell of anguish and agony that mostly goes unheard, as if a halo of vacuum was sucking up all the screams. SPOOKY!


Dreams have been defined as an unconscious state of confused mind. However, this confusion is that possession of yours which can neither be mugged nor tampered nor altered nor destroyed. It’s a world of mystery where you meet your inside YOU. A sweet world of pains and pleasures. A strong stairway to your goals.


In all the beautiful and grotesque times, I keep dreaming as it unravels the inside me:)



a little update:
Two beautiful members have embarked onto the most joyous journey called ‘life’.Yeah! Its celebration time at my place. My aunt delivered twins last night. Aaryan and Arjun. :) Congrats to the cutest parents’ in the world :)

a small four liner:)
Ever since, I met you,
You have been the apple of my eye,
With, Golden moon light you fill
The gleeful night sky.

i have changed my mind.. dreaming is total waste of time.. its a mindless state of annoyance that leads to repentence.
dear friend, the pleasure of now will get to your neck and sap you to death.. the pain reverberates and your heart is no pain proof, neither is mine.. so keep away from dreaming , cos when you wake up, its all broken, shattered and you could probably not even find it in the debris of a million other dreams.

it only sabotages your heart and leaves wounded for life( who am i kidding? it'll leave me wounded for probably another hour n then i'll be happy again). however, i dont give a rats ass cos things have changed and they will never change back..thank god!! better late than never.

to de author:- i don think dreams can leave u al broken n wounded.....f not nethng..t keeps u alive wen evthng u think s goin down...
