Curtains...

Moments of solitude are sometimes those of utmost joy. The silence, the breeze, all encompassing, all consuming. Everything in life seems to come to a gentle standstill. For those that spend their lives for others, without purpose, without drive, like me to an extent, it means a lot.
 
We tend to connect ourselves to people and objects for no reason. There is no reason for liking, there is no reason for love. When things are beutiful in their own solitary self, its an over whelming feeling.
 
There should be no dependables, just silence, solitude.
 
I hold a dagger to myself, smiling, knowing that there is an end, an end i love, knowing that the life i want, but cannot have, will always remain a dream. I still want that silence, that life, for no apparent reason.
 
It gives me pain to know that i cannot have what i truly love. it gives me joy, with hope, that what i cannot have may, per chance, have a better life without me.
 
When you have seen it inside and out, when you have felt it in the vibe that radiates from your proximity, you have seen it all. Its nothing, but a silent story. A silent true story which will remain a dream. The dream has been written, decided upon and will be played, and i will be the spectator.
 
The sight of the stage drives the dagger deeper into my soul, the pain is sweet, so i shall consume it. It could have been sweeter, but when there are things you cannot change, there is no point complaining about it.
 
For some reson or the other, there is no way i can bring myself to accept the truth in its entirety. I want it for myself, but wish its freedom.
 
Its a pain that gives pleasure, its a pain i want.
 
Hoping that the pain would not exist is not an option. Whats done, is done.
 
Curtains.

Bored...

Had an extremely boring lunch.....well, id only call it lunch cos the timing kinda resembled, but in no way was it a real LUNCH.
 
I had soup.
While watching a cricket match at Time Out, i had soup.
 
Those who know me are probably saying "has he actually found his head???"

Here's to a fresh start...

This morning, i realized that my blog is heavily under-blogged!
 
Why do i have to wait to feel bad about something to blog about it? Why not about anything and everything? It is after all an expression of who i am and what i go through everyday...
 
So hopefully, from today, you will hear and read my ravings and rntings about anything and everything that affects me everyday...like those RJs playing idiotic music on one fine day, or the bloody bus wala that was spewing black diesel smoke into my face on Shahrah e Faisal. The idiot wasnt even letting me pass, despite that fact that i needed to rush on. Eventually, i was three minutes late in dropping my younger bro to college. Idiot!
 
Whats more, these bike wala guys are sometimes quite the limit. These days, im particularly wary of the bikers. Nothing happned to me or my car, but just an incident in the family that has left a bad scar. That will take tiem to heal.
 
Im on sharah e Faisal, driving past the royal eyesore (Kawish Crown) intersection when his royal highness passes me by me from the right and decides to cross over to the left lane, while less than a foot infront of my car. Needless to say that there were no indications, either by indicators or a waving of the hand or foot before the turn was initiated.
 
I slammed (softy) on the brakes and managed to distance myself, for the fear of offending his excellency with my close proximity. Close shave...
 
Bad start to a beautiful day.....just when im feelig better from my flu....
Another issue....the nose pressure pads on my specs seem to be misaligned, im getting these throbbing headaches and pains in my eye socket every few minutes.....always happens after a flu!!!
 
Tea time!
