This piece is called flip flop after the way i was feeling in the DE lab on a friday afternoon in hot hot manipal ... Wrote it while people were too busy catching up on the latest gossip and teachers were more interested in getting pictures clicked for the college mag ! so here it goes ...
The first rays of the sun
Caress the surface of the Earth
As everything beautiful
Comes to life ...
Clouds move away
Cause the sun is here to stay
Illuminated minds and happy kids
Are the very things that the sun guided from the beginning ...
But I want to talk about this guy I know
Still fast asleep in his empty room
Afraid to step out and face the sun
He delays the awakening every moment till it actually comes ...
No one gets him
And he wonders why ?
Should he grow some wings
And fly towards the infinite sky ?
Watching his friends build the circuit of their dreams
He's still stuck in the thought of the girl who he lost
It's been 7 years since that day and he still remembers every second
Of how they moved away and never really talked ...
The rising price of food
And it's impact on the poor
Trouble in Tibet
And the Olympics in China
Are things he thinks about
Or maybe he doesn't
Can one man make a difference
Is something he believed in and it made him cry ...
Rising sea levels
And values corroding
Genocides and mass graves
Are scattered around on this planet on which he stays ...
Forget the past
Work in the present
Let future be the guiding light
That helps you through the night ...
Trying to get up
Move forward
Truly believing in his own beliefs
Is one of the hardest things
A man can achieve ...

i like it, i think you always have an idea of how things should be, but the whole world gives you countless examples of how things work otherwise..and it takes a lot of guts to stick to what you believe, cuz its always so much easier to go with the whole world...but then do you really feel like you lived ur own life...?
as always i like your blog!! it just touches me how your innocent and noble thoughts have been murdered by excessive judgements and stereotypes of life...keep it going find your own way...carve your own reality...one man can make a difference...just some more courage and self sufficiency can bring the magic back...you know what you were...your life is history in the making :)
god bless
