" IF I "

"Love is blind"
or so said shakespeare.
If he hears my end of the ordeal,
he'll turn in his grave!!
If i...could turn yesterday back around,
since i know how i feel
about you now.

I have a choice though,
and the decision is mine...
I stay or i leave!
If i stay...i perform!!
a performance of a lifetime!
If i leave... i leave for good!!

If i could turn back time,undo the done,
maybe then i would see the clear picture.
if the choice is mine,
which it is...
I'd choose to leave,
since i choose you!

Pretence is an art,
and i refuse to learn it.
since i choose you,
i choose to leave.

Being with you,
i can't be...the old me!!
things have changed,the end is here.
i'll never be...the old me!

"ODE TO THE INDIAN RAILWAYS"

Sudden breaks,
which wake the asleep,
cockroaches by the dozen,
promising you...
of a tough night ahead!!
My quilt smells,
like something has been living in it previously!
the pillow promotes,
some sort of hair oil.
The curtains add luxury,
to my misery!!
the man sleeping in front of me...
can wake the dead city of Mohenjodaro!!
I look out of the window,
the giant crack doesn't help much.
The floor is clean...
and clean are the rest rooms,
now there is a true surprise!!

"MAN WAS A BOY"

Once i knew a happy man,
his happiness was his biggest curse.
he had a book of memories,
with many pages still unwritten...
things unsaid,unplanned.
man was a boy,deep inside...
like all of them are!
close your eyes
in order to see,
beyond what's visible.
pride...love...sex...chasing cars,
its the same "ball"game!
man was a boy,deep inside...
and he never grew up!!
