Musings of a wanderer


Have been wandering with a mad, wanderlust in my head
A worm burrowing deeper deeper harder
Forcing me, sometimes torturing me
To wander, aimlessly, aim-fully, with disdain in my heart
Across areas I wander, drive sometimes, listening to 
loud music, blaring from the thundering speakers of my car

 My sole companion, a mute spectator to the intensity of the night
Of promises not made, of love made, and of emotions exchanged
Hormonal rushes doused, to be aflame again, to be stoked till
the heart's content be satiated...

 A fuzz, a buzz that pushes me, keeps forcing me to think, obsess
on the sparkle of the eyes, of the whiteness of the teeth, 
of love unspoken but displayed, of passion exchanged over a mere touch
Words flow like a torrential river, sometimes each drop spitefully spew venom

Love, hate like co-brides, inhabit my self, containing within themselves
an intense intertwining of emotions and sentiments, creating an inextricable
bondage, making me catch my breath, forcing me to gulp air...

 Mouthfuls of air...

 Like a fish that is picked up gingerly and thrown on rocky dunes and left to die, I thrash around, life ebbing away slowly...A hand comes by, picks me up softly, running a finger on my scratched surfaces, life force runs through my entire being, making me alive, alive, alive...

Defining LOVE for the Chennai audience :)

Love - An oft misquoted term, which simply means a plethora of misplaced hormones going into overdrive. A strong feeling of magnetism that tries to pull two confused beings into a bubble, which tricks them into a false sense of joy and serenity. Love, is a shortlived emotion. Let it rest! Love, that springs from the bottom of the heart when a week-old baby gurgles at you, has a longer life than the hormonal surge. I am not talking about honey-sweet emotions connected with mothers, siblings and flowers, puppies etc. I am not even talking about the babies sleeping on bathtowels, like those in a Anne Geddes card. I am talking about the bonding between two unsuspecting people, who are unable to behave rationally once they are "bitten" by the love bug. Why I chose to call it a bug, is that once you are bitten, you become devoid of rational thought and behaviour. You tend to forget things, as your hard disk is on an overdrive trying to store images of your beloved! If only you coul

Nithya Suresh Kaun Hai?

Nithya Suresh Kaun Hai? Well, this would be the case a few hours ago. But now, 1 hour later, its a fact. A simple yeah, has completed my journey. Maybe I am crazy to say yes, without even thinking. But I had already decided to say yes even without meeting the guy. The Groom, to be exact. Suresh alias Subramanian, would have been my Prince Charming. A would be husband. But destiny had other plans in store. Suresh, withered away without even a trace. My beloved parents spurned him. He was shooed away, because, he turned out to be something else that he originally wasn't. His lies, had turned him into a non-performing asset. NPA. Suresh had to go. He had not completed the formalities. He had lied about his qualifications and job. He had to be stopped from starting the engagement formalities. A phone call took care of that. And an e-mail did the trick. I was relieved. Woudn't I?

Being All Parts

Have you ever wondered if you were living all parts of your body totally and completely? Have you ever wondered how it would feel to feel and live with all the parts of your body? Do you know that people only accept certain parts of you. Rest, they simply reject. Maybe, because they aren't so comfortable with the parts. Leave alone other people, have you, as an individual, accepted your wholeness with all its flaws. Do you have the courage to face yourself?
