....living in the moment.

 

 







I was waiting for life to happen to me

and I saw it pass by

better times to see

and not having to cry

I was waiting for dreams to turn into reality

and they shattered one by one

kindness amongst cruelty

and turn around things already done

I was waiting to make it big

and I always fell short

Execution of plans without any rig

and not having to abort

I was waiting for perfection

and everything became a compromise

Confident of my circumspection

and not the same old reprise

I was waiting for an end to this state of flux

and it just took over me

Desperation to get down to the crux

and method in madness to see


 I decided I need to live in now

and find a mean for feeling to vent

I seem to have found the strength to gain it all back somehow

By just living in the moment

Is this what we were meant to do?

(An amateur writer’s impression on the recent chain of events in Hyderabad)

Its lovely weather and I have nothing better to do
So I thought I will ask you
Let form a cause, let’s form an issue, find a reason to brood
Yeah, lets burn some buses dude

We are fighting for our rights
While lag of duties has risen to phenomenal rights
Some action is missing in life
Let do something and create some strife

The climate is creating havoc everywhere
But this is our claim to fame rare
Let’s not waste a moment to stop and think
Let’s destroy everything in a blink

There people to be fed and roads to be built
There are chores to be done and matters to be dealt
Those are responsibilities of others in the city
I have no reason to feel guilty

I can make something of me and do my kin proud

But that takes a lot of hard work for crying out loud
I will break glass; destroy property and burn in this conspiracy crude
Come my brother, let’s burn some buses dude!!!
