Without You, I’m Nothing

Praveen — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 13:52:08 +0000

woke up every morning, my lips on your cheek, a sleepy smile and the chase began; as i ran towards the invisible goal, it seemed so far away, yet i ran for years and years, expecting it to be near, but getting fooled again and again; i should have stopped, maybe i should have listened [...]

Alone

Praveen — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 10:33:12 +0000

the sound of silence grows, every minute feels like a hour, every hour feels like a day, as i sit in in the cold light of morning; its far too late, too late to pick up my heart from the floor, as it lay in pieces, right where you threw it yesterday night; little by [...]

I Wish I Could Fly

Antara — Tue, 27 Dec 2011 13:54:01 +0000

lonely and sad my mood again swings with a wish that if I had wings in a flash I would fly high and high in the sky happy and free in the clouds where glee and joy knew no bounds to a land unknown of grief and dismay and make my heart feel happy and [...]

Love or Lust?

Praveen — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 09:09:56 +0000

it was love at first sight, the moment i met you, sparks flew and brought us, closer and together; barely a minute goes by, without me thinking, is this too good, to be true; i pinch myself from time to time, just to make sure i am not dreaming, and not hallucinating all this, between [...]

Together

Praveen — Wed, 02 Nov 2011 05:01:31 +0000

just you and me, holding hands and looking into each other’s eyes, it’s been a while, it’s been a long time; lost in this madness of life, closer but farther away, from each other, i don’t know what to do; alone and lost, this dream is all that keeps me alive, keeps me and you [...]

Love at First Sight

Praveen — Sun, 09 Oct 2011 12:41:05 +0000

i had my mind made up, i was sure of what i wanted to say, and i was very sure of how it was to end; this time it was different, i came, i saw and i fell, in one big moment, hook, line and sinker; I never believed in Love at first sight, believing [...]

Paradise

Praveen — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 10:35:48 +0000

if only we could float away, up, up and away to a new place and start all over again leaving all this chaos and confusion behind; every night i close my eyes and try to forget the life as it is meaningless, void, confused and stuck in a race that no one wins; me versus [...]

Overcast

Praveen — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 07:45:05 +0000

thunder and lightning, it’s been raining all night, standing under an umbrella, i am drenched to the bone; its’ been like this for quite sometime, cloudy and overcast, dark clouds lingering in the horizon, threatening to flood the land below; drawing a parallel, my life has been like this, dark, gloomy and overcast, ready to [...]

Numb

Praveen — Tue, 09 Aug 2011 17:07:49 +0000

as the sun rises, like a zombie, trapped in this dream i watch life pass by; i wandered alone, fighting all that came in my way, struggling to make sense of this war, that does not seem to stop; a shell of what i used to be, i wear a mask to hide me from [...]

Escape into the Shadows

Praveen — Sun, 31 Jul 2011 15:04:25 +0000

I tried too hard to be noticed, I tried to be someone I was not; waiting and waiting I watch time slowly tick away as another day dawns I watch the world scurry around; I wanted to be someone, I wanted to be famous, I wanted life and I wanted love; I wanted a lot [...]
