a little romance with life

Jumbled words in my head never fall into place And these steps I keep on taking, often keep changing pace Such hurried thoughts in my mind and with despair in my heart I walked out of my home, hoping for a brighter start And out there on the street, a little boy Innocent eyes, innocent smile, could not have been more than ten Working on a school project, walked with a paper and pen And on his back a little bag, full of chocolates I believe As he came hopping down the street Offering one to me I smiled and thanked and smiled some more The sweetest thing in so long I asked him if I could join him in the task And maybe tag along? So off we went onto the street Giving chocolates to the world Little sweets, little joys, to every boy and girl And what I learnt that day my friends, is a little hard to put down As I was forced to take a closer look at this crazy world around When my new friend offered sweets to people on that oh-so-busy street ...

I can see flowers, and sands, and time float away And so much magic in us holding hands I can see smiles, laughs, and giggles, and tickles, And music from our favorite bands I can feel the dance, our steps moving back and forth So perfect in their simplicity, So easy, so free It’s like it’s almost meant to be

I have a list  of crazy things I want to do And on the top of my list is this- sit back, and just stare at you When I'm done doing that, for as long as I please I wish to wear similar shirts, and walk around with ease Hand in hand two stupid clowns Who look so quite the same Hand in hand two simple minds that somehow turned insane..  :)

Bards, poets, lyricists and more, Me, my friends, my lovers or so For centuries, and decades have said so much Of a love we have rarely felt or touched For years they spoke of the inseperable bond From letters to emails to messages and all The connection that two people seem to have shared How one person loved when no one else cared Villians, jealous friends, society refused Yet they fought for a love that mattered the most Millions of stories, and tales to tell A bond to value, an anecdote to sell We all seem convinced it'll come some time "If not now, then maybe when I'm twenty nine" But what would you do, if no one came your way? Are you making the best of your day? So have some goals for yourself alone Aims, ambitions, places to go A list of things to do before you die things to learn before you say goodbye And though it may seem lovers matter a lot If you have someone, they surely deserve the love you've got But let your partner not...

Strange topic right? Well, not as strange as the events that led to this.  My life has been pretty monotonous lately. The only relationship I seem to be nurturing these days is the one with my books and practical file and lets get this straight, I'm in a girls college and with an almost negligible amount of guy friends from either school or neighborhood -- its been one heck of a ride with no boyfriends, no crushes, and not even having the privilege of seeing cute guys for days in a row. (Well, its not as bad as it sounds though! :P ) And so Aakriti Pasricha sits on her bed staring at IPAT ASQ wondering why celebrities get to travel all over the world while she's stuck up at home with nothing to do except study. That's when it happens..one link on facebook transports her to some random guy’s profile and the next thing you know she's reading ALL his articles or blogs or whatever. Great!  And ...

He walked into my life with cold blue eyes, And froze the fire in mine with his ice cold stare He laughed but in his own lost thoughts He heard not a word that I had to say.. He brought me flowers, yellow and bright He brought me lillies, jasmines, tulips so rare He got me gifts that money knew not worth of But never a letter with heartfelt words written there.. He woke me up from my calm dreams With sounds so creaky, so intentional, so loud He was there all the time, night and day And yet even as we walked, I felt alone in the crowd.. And then he told me stories with no beginnings, Later he corrected my walk, my laugh, my style He hit me with bitter words and little lies And yet he claimed to be all mine.. He looked at me with eyes so blank He said words so hollow, so empty, untrue On the promise of a new one, he killed my old little world And then, yes then, he said I Love You.. Dear friend, I hope not, but if you do find yo...

Family Being my clumsy and irritable self, today I cried my heart out for no apparent reason. And when I was crying like a total idiot and shouting for things that weren't even important, when logic was lost from most of my words, I got that one thing I needed the most- a bear hug from Dad. That is when it struck- that moment I realized what a beautiful family I have. Its just so wonderful to have a Mom who hates to see tears in your eyes and a cute little Brother who gets all nice and sensitive when he sees that his elder sister is sad. When you realize how your family accepts even the worst in you, that is when you get to know how much they truly love you! We don't need to do big things, its just the comfort that we feel when we realize that we are there for each other, all the time, no matter what. You realize how much warmth a family provides to you when no matter what beautiful place you are in, you always feel that longing to get home. I know it cause there have been t...

All About Love and Heartbreaks. “Watching you walk out of my life does not make me bitter or cynical about love. But rather makes me realize that if I wanted so much to be with the wrong person how beautiful it will be when the right one comes along.” Here are some little lessons I learnt during the course of getting infatuated, being broken hearted and eventually learning about Love- -That indeed, when you truly love somebody, all you want is for them to be happy. It gives you a kind of satisfaction and joy to know of their happiness, that your own tears cease to matter. As somebody said- Love? It's kind of complicated, but I'll tell you this... the second you're willing to make yourself miserable to make someone else happy, that's love right there. -I learnt that letting go somebody is almost as beautiful as holding on. You hold on to somebody who loves you back, you let go the person who doesn't want to be held on to. "True love doesn...

I guess there is no greater feeling in this world than the knowledge of the fact that you could bring a smile on somebody's face. :) That you could make their life just a wee bit better than it was before. :) That because of your kindness somebody's gonna be nice to the people around them. :) Its sad that we fail to realize how our littlest of actions can make somebody's day. Isn't it true that a bear hug from dad can give the feeling that everything is just all right? Doesn't a smile from mom completely make your day? An 'I love you' from friends, a 'keep it up' from teachers are just the words I need to hear to keep me grinning all the time! Funny but God made a beautiful world where indeed the best things are free. The thought just makes me smile. :) So next time don't even think twice before giving a loved one a hug, a kiss; give a stranger your best smile, and yes, go about distributing chocolates to young kids on the street. They too n...
