Transition

To see but not look.
To hear but not listen.
To touch but not feel.
To talk but not think.

To find the noise outside,
Growing stronger each second.
To hear the silence inside,
Growing sharper each day.
To lose the ability to pretend,
A belief that this is real.

This bitter knowledge.
It's difficult to face,
That words have no meaning.
And thought has no place.

When you walk a narrow path,
Between reason and death,

If you know the casuality,
It's so damn painful.
To silence clarity.

Even for an instant.....

My First Love

This is either a poem or an ode,
Platonic love, yes, that's the word.
I was a mere boy, true,
But she was a fairy for sure,
Her hair, when it flew with the wind,
Her walk, gliding on air it seemed,
Her anger flared, Venus in fury,
And then, she melted, ever so slowly
It was the way she said my name,
Rahul, don't worry I'm fine.
Her eyes hinting a lingering smile,
Breathless, I felt like I'd run a mile.
Once, I made her cry,
Her tears, I thought I'd die.
She looked so weak and tender,
My only wish, to comfort her,
The way her hand felt in mine,
I was lost forever in time.
What I felt, I knew not then,
Now I do, It was an innocent heart's love.

A 'DAS'tardly poem

The Bible says he's the devil,
The incarnation of pure evil.
When he bares his teeth in a malicious smile,
Grave suffering follows in a very short while.
No words, just sounds,
He sounds like a real good flutist.
No letters, just symbols,
You'd be convinced he's a cryptologist.
He looks at you and knows you haven't understood,
And that's what makes him feel really good.
Every semester, in and out,
He increases his supple count.
Whether its aaR Ay Cee or aycH eM Tee,
You can forget your bloody degree,
Coz I guarantee you its impossible to pass,
When you have a subject taught by R K DAS.

Production Technology

A class that I love and hate
The professor, he always comes late
Once you are in, you can never get out
Scream or cry or shout
Sometimes, when people really want to die
They come to this class to try
On and on he goes, about lathes and tool life
So why you might ask, do I go amidst this strife?
Thats because, I need an attendance of 75 percent
Or my life will suffer a 1 year dent...

Sinking "Life"boat

Life is showing me unspeakable horrors,
Yet, anger, I do not know your colour.
Each day, the numbers on my wall tick,
With mind numbing slowness, it makes me sick.
My friend tells me, The Bridge won't break,
Yet, at nights, I lie awake.
Ominous thoughts, holding my head in their sway,
Every second, every hour, every day.
With such a crucial time ahead, I wonder,
Will I stay afloat or am I going under?

Now I tag the other regular blogger that I know: Revathi
So my utterly 'Vetti' friend....you have to write a poem now....

Casanova Composition

Isn't today that very day
You are waiting for someone to say
That you are special to him
But maybe he is too dim
Or maybe he has forgotten
So leave me with paper and a pen
And have no more worries
For, I shall write down stories
Of how much you mean to me
And how I can't live to see
When you get really hurt
So here, let me get to work
Anyonymously, so you can call me Burt
Or think i'm a real jerk
And so towards the end .i.e. finally
Judge me very carefully
Am I really out of line
Or will you be my Valentine.

Dream fueled desires

Days ive spent lookin for u,
Nites ive spent sleepless, thinking of u,
You were so soft and oh so tender,
In all those soothing moments u render,
See how unfair this world is, will ya,
We were parted mea culpa,
Comforting than THE WIND IN THE WILLOWS,
My sweetest and dearest PILLOW.

Thoughts in Verse

Thoughts that transcend time.
I had them in my prime.
I knew then what I would be
Forever,Immortal as far as one can see.
Difficult and different was I
But I knew not why
I realised indifference was the only way.
People told me it was a crime for which I would pay
The only non triviality in my life
Is my purpose and my drive
If you can see what I'm driving at
Join me and you'll never regret
It is your life,What I say you must believe
It is your dreams that you have to achieve.
Remember rationality is immortality
And this is an inescapable eventuality
