Some peace

Is it bad to find peace in melancholy?
A touch of nihilism, 
That broken back, those weak knees,
Some closeted masochism,
Culminating in cheap wine,
The kind that leaves you heady
Most nights, 
I stay up breathing
Eyes wide open
Dreaming,
Taking pleasure in my pain.
Is it bad… to find peace
In myself?

Dream

Fairy tales were nothing, Nothing compared to that dream...  Though beautiful, It was never meant to be,  All a lie, All a deceit... I found myself sitting under the shadow like sky,  Deep and beautiful like the sea, I looked around and saw I had everything I'd hoped for, Everything I wanted was there with me. Thought about how I got where I was, how I got so lucky, And just then, it started to rain, It lasted not for long,  But long enough to make me see,  It had happened before, it happened again, As each drop trickled down my face, It's sweetness mixed with salty tears,  I realised it was just another dream, And some things just aren't meant to be...

Life as we Know it

I often wonder.., Is it really so difficult to show what’s on one’s mind? What they really want? What they think of certain things? I’ve always been curious to know what others think. NO! Not about me. But in general, how they perceive certain things, May it be about the world or things like day to day life or relationships, or even a piece of music, or maybe even a painting… It does not have a psychological explanation. Some things are so connected to us but still somehow so out of bounds and unexplainable. Some things that we can’t have control over. But is it really so hard to understand others? We can talk. Isn’t this fact supposed to make us superior to other species? Then why is it so that we are the most complicated beings in this world? Animals have tough lives, but their lives are still simpler and less complicated somehow… Is it because everything good or better has worse consequences to it? Like if we talk about relationships, then mostly it’s been so that the one ...

Curiosity:

No offence meant, I'm not targeting anyone here but simply just curious. One thing bothers me gravely. If we come to think of it, why not neuter men in India? The sole reason for them to reproduce is that they think more kids means more people to earn. They don't bother about how they'll bring up those kids. (Not all, but most.. Mainly ones who're uneducated, orthodox and poverty-stricken..) And mostly these are the people who mistreat not just animals, even their wives and children. When people justify neutering/spaying saying that it's for the betterment of those animals, they aren't meant to be in the city and they end up dying on the road and what not, I just can't help but wonder wasn't this their land before humans claimed it? Why do humans think they can own everything? Claim everything and get away with it? It's good, we try to help them in any way we can. But for once, can anybody here justify why is everyone so religiously stuck to ...
