One Hundred

One Hundred days
One Hundred smiles
One Hundred broken eyes
One Hundred dreams
Ond Hundred mute sighs
One Hundred walks
over One Hundred roads
One Hundred trips
to One Hundred new shores
One Hundred pictures
of One Hundred memories
One Hundred pages
of One Hundred old stories
One Hundred emotions
that are One Hundred hands old
One Hundred days later
the countdown begins anew

    @ Sakhii... I don't really go on Orkut much, somehow. Actually, to be entirely honest, I've not been up to Social Networking for quite some time now - although I seem to be getting back into it :)

    @ Brian... Not setting any targets for myself, I don't want blogging to be that way. This is what my subconcious spelt out for me, and I woke up as fast as I could to jot it down... and here it is :D

    @ buckingfastard... This one is about a dream I had, which woke me up as it seemed to scream right into my ears "Write, damnit, before you forget what you dreamt about!" The significance of what I could think of was that it's been a hundred days since something happened, something quite important... but I never knew my subconcious knew how to keep count of days like that.

… and she said, “I’m all yours.”

The school bell rang, and finally the moment she had been waiting for had arrived. She was free from school, and she couldn't wait to be back home. To be with the one she had been thinking of, for so long. “Have a nice weekend!” “You too!” “I’ll drop by at your place around five, ok?” “Sure thing. It’s gonna be so much fun, you guys spending the night over.” “We’ll stay up all night long!” The conversations amongst her classmates surrounded her, yet she seemed far away from it all. She was lost the her own thoughts, lost in the memories of the long hours she had spent in the company of her one true love. She got on the bus, and sat at her favorite window seat. She wished with all her will that the bus would start moving soon. Her impatience paid off in the end; the bus jerked to life, and slowly trundled off in the direction of her house. She felt excited at the thought of someone waiting for her. Her thoughts wandered back into the memories of the countless kisses t...

The Friend Circle

Image
"If only I had a gun," thought Ali. "Maybe, if I could blast a bullet in my head, it'd help to stop the pounding." He laughed at the absurdity of the thought almost immediately though, as real life took a grip on him again. He had never thought that he could fight with Raman the way he did. He never thought that he was capable of saying the things that he did, to Raman; his best friend since childhood. He wanted to say a lot of things to him; that he hadn't really meant any of the things he had said to Raman when they fought. That he still was his best friend, in spite of everything. Most importantly, he wanted Raman to know that he did not want him to "die and go to hell" as he had told him to. Ali had tried calling Raman quite a few times, but he had had no luck. He was very hopeful thus, when finally the phone rang. He picked up the phone hastily, only to see that it wasn't Raman, but Kalpana who was calling him. "Kay. I thought it was ...

A Sucky Day Smiles

Morning 6:30 AM, the alarm clock screams into his ears. With a jerk, he was pulled unwillingly from the wonderful dream that he was enjoying. It starred his darling angel after all, and he had the front row seats to it – but sadly, life had something else in store for him. A sucky day awaited him. The after sleep grogginess accompanied him as he got out of the bed, and that's when he got the first taste of the sucky day that was waiting for him. No water in the early morning, his whiny dog whining, while he was in the loo trying to make do with the little water that he had, and a little cockroach in his breakfast. All in all, by the time he was getting out of the house, he wasn't really in the best of his moods. The Day chuckled gently. Reaching college, he found that the first class was that of his least favourite teacher. It's said that teachers are fair, but he was sure that his professor hated him, for some reason. Thus, it wasn't a surprise that he had to endure a ...
