I'll be your candle, baby!

The candle still burns

The flame still lights

But oh, does it flicker

Stop the wind from blowing

Does it really matter?

For as long as the light guides me home

For as long as the heat keeps me warm

Does it matter if the candle goes out?

But hey, sooner than later it will

And then there won't be the same light tearing me apart

There will be light but the source won't be the same

There will be warmth but the provider won't be the wax

Let it burn, let it melt

Coz you won't ever know what I felt

The darkness shall disappear

I'll be able to see through it as clear

Damn, was it just a candle that burnt

And took with it more than the wax

Well, only if he had known how to save the flame

Given her a little life of his own

For she had the will to light

One blow of air, she was out of sight

7 Things Girls Need to get Right

Disclaimer- This piece is a personal opinion and should not be taken as a remark on anyone. The readers are requested to not be offended since I mean no offence at all. And if you end up being offended, the writer is not to be blamed. Thank you! I have seen a lot of girls previously but thanks to my college, I now see hundreds of them each day. And analyse them. After so much analysis and observation, I finally discovered some things that ladies and girls need to improve upon and get right. Read on. 1. Wax the underarms So this is a big big turn off for most people. Girls, you may wear sleeveless tops and dresses but know that we don't like to see the bushy region in your armpits that you least proudly show off. Ensure that you are perfectly waxed or have negligible growth the next time you decide to wear something with no sleeves. There's enough hair on your head, we don't need any more to admire. 2. Plastic straps If the government was cons...

What's in a Date?

Okay so today we celebrate the last sequential date in this century, 11-12-13. It's the last date with consecutive numbers to appear in the 21st century, but why the hype? Did they forget that every damn date in this century will never repeat itself? Or is this just another money-minting criteria adopted by hotels, hospitals, bars, wedding planners and pandit ji's to brainwash people's minds and inform them about the importance of this one date? Why the craze to tie the knot on this so called 'auspicious' date? Why the craze to deliver babies on this day? Are you going to tell me that its a 'lucky' day and will make your marriage last a year more than mine? Or your baby will be born an actor or IITian? Or probably that the food at restaurants will be better today? Hell, no. If love doesn't see person or time, why does it see dates? Ladies, If babies born on other dates can become Shahrukh Khan and Sachin Tendulkar, why the fuss about paining your bo...

We Think We Have Time

An eerie quietness fills the room Something doesn't seem right today He is waiting for me in bed I slip into the blanket that covers his body I tell him that he needs to be well He doesn't listen to me I am yearning to hear him speak He doesn't talk much I am waiting for his words of wisdom He hardly even says anything I remind him of his strength His body is weak I feed him naan khatai and imarti each day He is thinning by the day I bring him his favourite food He doesn't eat two square meals in a day I cook him his favourite mutton biryani He can't eat two square meals in a day I bring him filter coffee from the nukkad of the street He can hardly even drink water I ask him if he'd like to dance with me He can't stand on his two feet I try to put him to sleep His eyes are tired of being shut I stay quiet for a few minutes He reaches for my hand I can't stop the tears from running do...
