~The Lonely Vocalist~




he sang for himself , not for others to hear

to button out the rue , he could no longer bear

he was lonesome , with nobody to fear

felt better , with his insides much clear

he sang ideating her , his only dear

no matter if now , it is a dream mere ..






he sang for himself, n for his only friend

for whom he waited , every rule to bend

was perfect for him , the rightmost blend

made only 1 mistake , one he couldnt fend

one that ruined them , one he could never mend

heard time would heal , the trauma didnt end

so he sings , not for others to commend

but in hope , one day his feels would be send ..

To NAVYA


date- 16 dec 2006
time 10 am




I am travelling in a train from kgp to delhi .
In the same appartment is a baby girl , 7 yrs of age , whose hyper active naughtiness reminds me of my childhood .

The more i watch her NATURALNESS , the more i get bewitched .


In the morning , before leaving , i hand her a note .

She tries to read with her parents , but cannot .

So her mother reads her the GIFT .



***************************************




To Navya ,


Amazing r the childhood days ,
Unique r their mischievous ways .


Given the proper care ,
shapes our character , sets our base .
Free from any worries ,
careless of of any gaze .
Entangled in this world's maze ,
I realise
childhood memories r where my heart lays .



But gone r the days , when i used to be a child .
Used to be exuberant , used to be wild .
Bubbled with energy , never was i mild .
Grief didnt exist , each day i smiled .
Being a grown up , is like being tiled .
Just wanted to show , how i wish ,
how i long , to again be a child .


************************************


Navya listened intently n after the end , asked " mummy . kya likha hai " .

I smiled n answered " beta abhi aapke samajh me nahi aayega , n jab aayega tab aap bade ho chuke hoge , like me :) " .


And her mother pouched that note , which i wrote on a SPORTSTAR white page , and we departed .



The above pic needs mention as i had completely forgotten this poem , when this pic caught my eye n instantly a word came out , NAVYA .

..... PROTECT ME FROM WAT I WANT .....

Read it today on a friend's status message on gtalk .
At 1st i also , like most of u , laughed with a shrug,
" wat in the world is that suppose to mean !! ".
Even dared to ask the guy its entailment . :O

Ofcourse , there wasnt any reply .
That roused my ever so keen interest .
Not concerning my friend's wants n want nots ! ,
But the bewildering statement . :O

Due to various earthly obligations n all ,
didnt really have the chance to digest the msg .
But kept ringing bells even in class ,
And with the prof lecturing how natural RUBBER is formed ! ,
Wasnt long before i had devoted the full attention it rightly deserved ,
" Protect me from wat i want. " !!!

Wat exactly do we each of us want ?
Think HARD n TRUE , without ne wordly constraints ,
n u ll notice 1 common outcome ,
some of ur WANTS would end up giving goosebumps to u ,
create tremors if released publically .

Of course taking into full consideration that ,
whenever our human mind is bestowed with such rare freedom ,
limits , those set by this mortal faux world ,
r crossed .

But still , shud really we ashamed of some of our WANTS ,
shudnt we atleast have the freedom of dreaming abt our WANTS ,
or shud we keep reminding our soul , that we CANT want such WANTS !
thats from where its all cming , this , PROTECT me from wat i WANT .

Y all these rules n limits , surely not created by nature ,
but by us , probably out of insecurity .
Isnt the set of laws provided by nature enough ?
that we r introducing further layers .

N all must be accused ,
all who r following , with or without a fake smile ,
Its high time , when we give these rules a refreshing ,
n follow the only MASTER rule mother nature defined ,
to live NATURALLY .

Until that time , lets share the same thought ,
PROTECT me from wat I WANT .
