pressing desires

Am sitting with my legs crossed

With a notion to gauge my soul

To fathom the unfathomable

To see where I am heading towards


I feel I’m different from others

Huh..feelings alone will lead me nowhere

The world’s changing and have different colours

What it demands is something concrete


Looking back into the past

There are some reasons to smile

And more reasons to cry

Deep inside my heart, I pray

Hey God!lemme try

I know I have never failed to fail

But there is always a chance to dance

Maybe, it’s the first or the nth

I simply know I’ve to touch the zenith


Some feel I’ve a poker-face

Some feel I’ve a joker-face

But, I want the world to realize

At least I have a face to face


I have petit desires and burning desires

Embedded within me

Thank God! I have people to share them with

One’s my roomie and the other’s sitting

Some thousand kilometer away

Thanks to the communicator

Which shrunk the thousand kilometer

And allowed me to vent my emotions

Both of joy and sorrow

Which I feel are understood without a raise in brow


Every morning I’m brimming with ideas

Some practical, and more, impractical

People say,” have you gone crazy?

Please don’t do things out of frenzy”


But this uncompromising chap

Wants to enter into the second lap

Where he can drink life to lees

And there’s nobody to charge any fees

Wants his life-motor

To run at full throttle

And champion the cause s which prevent him

From leading the life his own way.


I realize, life has more vistas to open

But, there is nothing to get frightened

Because every dog has a day

And when a dog can have, why not a man? what you say?
