I don’t remember where we met or how we went past that drill. I dreamt of you before I knew you, so whenever you ask me about yourself, I smile. I don’t know whether what I see in you is what I want to see or whether it is for real. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You talk as much as you should. You’re perfect like that. I like your cheeks, and the weed like beard that grows on it; where my fingers get lost. I like resting my face on your head; it covers my face so full. Your arms aren’t tender, they aren’t stiff. I don’t know how they are. They aren’t anything great. You’re fat, even though you lose it easily every month or two. Your legs are long. I can lie on them and fit between them so easily. I hear you like I heard ghosts when I was young. And you always sing to me. Now that I think of it, you don’t look at me so much. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;Everybody said I’m not romantic. I started believing them. But then you came along. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;You feed my thought. I like you for that. You read poems to me. You know how to cook. Sometimes days go by and I don’t hear your voice, I only hear mine. I seem to enjoy this. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;We sit and stare each other for hours. We don’t talk to each other for days.&amp;nbsp; You like the music I like. I love what you introduce me to 3 times out of 5. I think your friends are nice, I don’t always understand what they mean when they crack jokes about you or us, but I pretend to understand and fake a smile. I like your friend Leela the most. She has a very pleasant face and she maintains a reasonable distance with me. She lets me take my time to know her. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The first time I held your hand and dragged you close to me, I did so because I felt misplaced, plus people were pushing me, and sometime around that time I was pushing myself too . I thought where ever I go with you would be a nice place. I assumed you liked me. I never needed confirmation after that. I’m thinking about it only now. You don’t fear anything.&amp;nbsp; Neither do I.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I like that I share with you what I don’t share with anyone. I like having secrets for a change. You like the very different me. You discovered this. Rather, you excavated this. A different me, that I don’t be when you're not around. I never get tired around you. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;I don’t know what else to write to you in this letter. I’m bored without you. Come home soon. We’ll have fun. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center" class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:

type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;DAY I&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"&gt;I’ve seen rivers, been through them. I have lived in the mountains, had affairs with them. I’ve flown in air and loved it. I’ve been covered in sand, lived on snow. Nature has so much to offer, why don’t they teach us the world?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I feel like calling the spirits in these unending fields of black that will glow in the morning tomorrow. Then fear sets in me, the fear of encountering the unknown, unheard, and unseen. Who are they? Where do they live?&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Isn’t it just us afraid of ourselves and our unbound, unfettered power?&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;DAY III&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"&gt;What are these stories that keep rewinding in my mind? &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;He has these shifting eyes which deceive you. Though they hesitate to catch a glimpse they make this heart skip a beat. These eyes have grown tired of looking into those eyes. They hardly meet. His charming face, oh! his very charming face!&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The moon is shining in the sea, they meet. Shine in me. &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;You. &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Don’t leave. Shine in me. You make me a sad girl, don’t. Why don’t you just come to me? I loved you across a million people, their million faces and everlasting chatter. I fell in love with you. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;DAY IV&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"&gt;They come with a roar and then they fumble; these waves. They give me so much beauty. I can drown in them and feel the ethereal bliss that life has to offer to me. This selfless love I make so selfish in my self-centered survival.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;This is the most beautiful trip of my life as yet. The dreams that I imagined, that continued &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;with unimportant inputs, that make more remark in these daily philosophies of life, that change at convenience, are coming to my notice now, I’m reasoning with them in this fragile state of my mind. The vulnerability of my mind amazes me, but then I believe it is this vulnerability that allows it to learn so much.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;I walk on a beach which seems to come out of my fantasy, perhaps a dream making machine or a place where fairytales are made. &lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Waves say different things every time you look at them. They come gushing at you and then they submit themselves to the shore and the little while of silence resonates far and beyond.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;When I looked at them from a distance, the waves progress gracefully to the land, something that was perhaps seen in majestic old wars. The waves sacrificing their individual entity and then resuming with synchrony and furor , voluntarily being a part of this cycle.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;It is beautiful.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;This third person experience, next to moonlit sea, with the lustful sea breeze flowing through me, gives me a chance to understand how I've formulated my behavior towards things. How I understand things, why I fall in love with faces. I think it’s because I am able to remain unaffected by these conversations that I’m apparently part of.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;It gives me a chance to understand how I lead my life with subjective conclusions of the incidents that take place in them. How each individual is what he lives.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;DAY V&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"&gt;How different am I from everyone else? I sometimes feel like a big misfit. I think this botheration too would end soon. The orange sun is blaring into my eyes but it’s pleasant. I realize, I’ve always liked jokers. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;DAY VI&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"&gt;Early morn, I haven’t slept in a long time after a long time. At the grey sand beach, yet again in awe of the wonderful sea. I love looking at budding love, where everything is a possibility yet the lovers so restrained. I’m walking down to water, with a part time lover, sharing moments of intimacy on the bare beach. The sea was vast as ever, its endlessness treasuring fables running through time.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;This smile doesn’t fade, I can laugh for days. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"&gt;The bathed grass feels like a balm on these uncared for feet. The cold water cleanses me. The breeze takes away all the qualms that I have with my life.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;The sand scrubs away all the prejudices I hold against things and people. I want to spend my life here but I have to go home, they have been waiting for some time now.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;I’ll come back, with &lt;a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wsFLZ0B51_M"&gt;stories&lt;/a&gt; to tell this time. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3231285552393265335-5006638963848823473?l=on-duty--living.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/feeds/5006638963848823473/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3231285552393265335&amp;postID=5006638963848823473' title='6 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/5006638963848823473'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/5006638963848823473'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/2011/10/goa-30092011-05102011.html' title='Goa. 30.09.2011 - 05.10.2011'/><author><name>I am</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17387224544068632282</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X20IxYfEm3E/TjGxvWBMhrI/AAAAAAAAADs/3qD7FGfgup0/s220/Lonely.jpg'/></author><thr:total>6</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3231285552393265335.post-1152002193470638207</id><published>2011-10-07T12:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-10-07T13:07:31.053-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='dreams'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='eyesm'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mad man'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mind'/><title type='text'>Mad Man</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;They clashed and created music,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;They clashed and made love,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;They always found each other,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Even in this hurry,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;His light green eyes,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Ridden with the guilt and shame,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;For looking into her eyes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;But she just stared.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;‘Can we come closer?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Can we know each other’s name?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;In this haze, my fury settles in you&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;I like looking at your face.’&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" align="center" style="text-align:center"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;He is my mad man.

She was a mere reflection of unimpressive, weak aspirations, and aspirations such that they held nothing but an exaggerated idea of self worth.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;A lot of times we purpose ourselves so rigidly that we give no space to constructive error. We forget that error is unavoidable and is bi-product of effort. So when error finds no place of its own, it eats up the effort and then there is nothing left. It’s a void. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;She filled the void with excuses. She thought she found refuge in this new make-belief reality. But how could she deny the burning of her heart, the void was now feeding on her space to breathe. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;She gained no strength from her desires for they were second hand dreams, she felt defeated after every unarmed battle that she fought.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Such despondency was dangerous because it wasn’t derived from anything, it had no reason.&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;She was an extension to a burnt life, a possible way out, an opportunity. She lived not a life but a duty. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;The only time she experienced any form of solace was when she took the bus or the train. The frenzy in the temple gave her an odd sense of peace too. The madness around he,r balanced the madness within her. Each bus ride would shake her up from her sleeping will, but change was such a fanciful idea. The line between the two people she was living was fading and surprisingly both of them were aware. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;Did she ever see herself as a victim? Was she aware that she was suffering?&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;She &lt;i&gt;was&lt;/i&gt; the villain and the victim, she didn't believe in heroes.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3231285552393265335-7780540457938510408?l=on-duty--living.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/feeds/7780540457938510408/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3231285552393265335&amp;postID=7780540457938510408' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/7780540457938510408'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/7780540457938510408'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/2011/03/noir.html' title='Noir'/><author><name>I am</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17387224544068632282</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X20IxYfEm3E/TjGxvWBMhrI/AAAAAAAAADs/3qD7FGfgup0/s220/Lonely.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3231285552393265335.post-4918899201923631711</id><published>2011-03-02T23:51:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2011-03-02T23:54:33.985-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='time'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='worry'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='assurance'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Mess'/><title type='text'>Clearing Up</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;"&gt;Am I aware of the mess I have left behind?&lt;/p&gt;

It’s very hard to get rid off of it. How can you long for something and be afraid of it at the same time?&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="mso-spacerun:yes"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;But the scare doesn’t succeed, it is still beautiful. Little crystals of sugar, waiting inside your mouth to melt. The slow, steady sweetening of the air inside can be some kind of pleasure. She had never lived those days submerged in music; the yellow walls took much of her time. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When her brain lets loose, there is a riot inside her chest, which cannot contain itself, nothing can. The eyes pop out and notice everything; each sensation triggers a caution alarm. There is fire and burning. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;The hazy sunset and her dusk skin, were miserably juxtaposed with each other, I did not know where to look.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;When I awoke I understood I could no longer go on like this.

The Flower Child</title><content type='html'>She sat in her balcony, under the bright golden sun. Gazing at the album she created, with amusement, like she always did.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She was restless, and she would constantly look at her player that played her favorite music, worried that the music would stop. She forgot about her coffee, which lay desolate on the marble that lined the railing wall. Her biscuits were warm, but untouched. The greatest worry of all times was that her music will end. All the jazz of her life will go silent.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She was a flower child. And nothing could make her happier than being called one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Her green dress touched the floor, her feet hid behind it, her arms soft and raw lay on the arm rest and her fingers moved languidly on the pictures.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;She looked up to the sky and smiled, as if sharing a joke with an old friend. She saw her biscuits and her coffee, shut her album and sank into her chair now sipping the dark bitter caffeine balancing it beautifully with the biscuits that she made herself.&lt;br /&gt;She is pious, sacredly untouchable, a motion. She is the energy; which when defined is rebuked, and when preserved is disturbed.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She shut her eyes and thought about her.  That incredible beauty! She ran the movie in her mind, the way she looked at her, the way she walked, the way she sat, the way she observed.  She bent down and tilted her head, watched the loyalty of her shadow and then took advantage of it.

My parents were young and school was not a great priority. It was the best time for me to travel. To take pictures in my mind of overpowering scenery. It has added beauty to the landscape of my thought.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pictures, when I recollect them, don’t illustrate as images, but as feelings. I can feel the comfort of the whether, feel the beauty my vision witnesses.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I remember a road, sided by soft, young grass, a road under the greyish blue sky. I remember gazing at it, giving meaning to its invention, its creation. And that is all I remember as if, it is a land that now does not exist.&lt;br /&gt;And strangely I don’t want to visit that place again, I don’t want to compete with my picture, neither do I want to support it with reason.&lt;br /&gt;It is my wonderland.

A sweetness overpowering the failed attempts at satiating the incomplete wants. &lt;br /&gt;This year has been beautiful, witnessing victory with surprise, my favourite kind.&lt;br /&gt;This year has been a celebration, of a refreshed identity, of existence, of experiencing thought in reality.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You-&lt;br /&gt;I thought it was your smile, the beautiful outlet of your honesty.

Perhaps of higher order skills and refined beliefs but they all obediently cater to our survival needs. &lt;br /&gt;*smiles in surprise *&lt;br /&gt;I guess that answers my question.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3231285552393265335-1971621230143506931?l=on-duty--living.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/feeds/1971621230143506931/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3231285552393265335&amp;postID=1971621230143506931' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/1971621230143506931'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/1971621230143506931'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/2009/08/mismatched.html' title='Mismatched'/><author><name>I am</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17387224544068632282</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X20IxYfEm3E/TjGxvWBMhrI/AAAAAAAAADs/3qD7FGfgup0/s220/Lonely.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3231285552393265335.post-8747935766512770672</id><published>2009-07-15T07:59:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-07-15T08:02:58.174-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Exaggerated Discovery</title><content type='html'>“The motion it creates. Unreserved movements celebrate the easy travelling through the beautiful curves of a melody. The upbeat, jerky bouncing exemplifies the value of time. Colours spills over the birth of each split second thought. Humour nurturers the thrill so everlasting. The diktats of pleasure echo, tasting the delight of sound. The aimless trance and the web of contours of climaxes garnish the ultimate pleasure.&lt;br /&gt;I am now, consumed.” – The sedated woman  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is not uncommon that I feel like this.

Greasing myself with love is an ambition now. Greasing myself with you. I miss you.&lt;br /&gt;It’s easy for a lightening thought to strike, and cause what is hard to judge, hard to trace, easy to forget, thus.  It’s like hesitance wanting the spot light, so restlessly that it yields lethargic struggle. &lt;br /&gt;I have been waiting with unreasonable wants, wants that exist with reluctance, wants that are justified, though.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My mind records it. Every attempt, every sensation, each awareness, and the rising numbness.  I lie half dead, with all my powers directed, focussed, concentrated to the task. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Am I foolish?” I ask- to let go, miss out, on the rare chance I get to relish a presence indescribable; or am I wise, as I relive it day after day, moment after moment, since I know it's rare. Exquisite. &lt;br /&gt;Although, lifeless I remain even when it is replayed. It consumes my all strength, half to realise and half to accept it. The trip.&lt;br /&gt;I wait like a child, with the patience of an ending life. Some agitated moments do interrupt my meditation. I plan and forget. I come back and remember, promise to remember, promise to myself that I will achieve the scenery of my thoughts, each tint of my imaginary panorama matching that of my prized reality. Distance is sweet and warm, I assure myself that it is far simpler, but, my stars call me a dreamer. True. I realise now, that the habits I happily possess are dangerous. I still learn no lesson and continue to feel secure in my bubble of contentment.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3231285552393265335-791821133088904247?l=on-duty--living.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/feeds/791821133088904247/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3231285552393265335&amp;postID=791821133088904247' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/791821133088904247'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/791821133088904247'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/2009/05/trip.html' title='The Trip'/><author><name>I am</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17387224544068632282</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X20IxYfEm3E/TjGxvWBMhrI/AAAAAAAAADs/3qD7FGfgup0/s220/Lonely.jpg'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3231285552393265335.post-3274496724471653647</id><published>2009-05-09T09:07:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-05-09T09:10:36.619-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Trance</title><content type='html'>Sometimes is wish my brain could be exposed to music, directly. &lt;br /&gt;Yet again, someday!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3231285552393265335-3274496724471653647?l=on-duty--living.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/feeds/3274496724471653647/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3231285552393265335&amp;postID=3274496724471653647' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/3274496724471653647'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3231285552393265335/posts/default/3274496724471653647'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://on-duty--living.blogspot.com/2009/05/trance.html' title='Trance'/><author><name>I am</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17387224544068632282</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-X20IxYfEm3E/TjGxvWBMhrI/AAAAAAAAADs/3qD7FGfgup0/s220/Lonely.jpg'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3231285552393265335.post-2197621203893604444</id><published>2009-04-01T08:29:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-01T08:44:32.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Disjointed Flow</title><content type='html'>The weather inspired me to write this.

Anyway, period, I shall get back to this question later in this entry.&lt;br /&gt;This, is a very special question for me, rather defining. For the first time, I felt being obviously loved by him. Yes, I affirm, he did over-express is love for me, this way. I appeal, do not be shocked!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He considered me worth a discussion with him, I was honoured.&lt;br /&gt;He has always been this person, whom I silently revere, idolize. He is my eternal inspiration, my rumble, my spark.

No answers required, no questions wasted, valuing the company of self the most. Discovering a lighter shadow, that chased self, muffled and reticently all throughout. No sorrow, no dolor; and no remarkable glee, no jubilation. Occupying a little space, in a world that self would selflessly own. Exempted by others, to take responsibility of self.  Only a beating heart, a waiting stomach, a philosophising mind, a dead brain, and mechanical voluntary muscles. An arrant, absolute peace of mind.??&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sincerely wish, my life ahead, to have the aforementioned excellence. I am trying, to find the answer to my minds descriptive question.
