Starry nights

Tonight, was a beautiful night,
so i must write.

I must scribble, about the stars,
the bewitching ones, large and bright
that hold us put, with their feeble might.

And also the ones, wispy and faint,
smudged in (light) noise, they hidden, await.

Like so many things, about you
that'd lose their bling, with time, averaged,
thence in a poem, must they be caged.

I must indite, the little gestures,
the blink of your eyes, the grip of your hand
the pat on the head, the heart in the sand.

I must save, the stars of the moonless nights
'cause they fill the spaces, between stars, brightest
'cause they light up the sky, when the night's darkest.

Should there be a trade-off between being happy and making someone happy? Shouldn't it be the same? i can't understand compromises. I cant understand giving up something for something else. There cant be something less and something more... its either something o nothing. i cant understand why we sometimes fake ourselves. or we drift to believe that we are something else. why is inactivity so elusive? What can be achieved from endless conversations tat lead nowhere, head nowhere? Why ...
अजुन माझे चुकले - माकले शब्द तुला टोचत असतील सावलीमध्ये कधी चुकून क्षण ओले भिजवत असतील पाउस म्हणून , वेड्या मनाची समजूत ही , तू घालत असशील मी नसले तरी कधी , चोरून, स्वप्न माझी पाहत असशील नसेन मी , पण हरवलेली प्रीत माझी खरी आहे एक डाव फसला , म्हणून आयुष्यभराची दूरी आहे

Hello world, I am here to talk. No not promises, speeches n slogans and stuff of that sort. No just gupshup. Yeah the around the corner “hi! Hello!” stuff. Candle light march?

No but not at such things. No nothing political. I don’t want to be associated with anything remotely political. No pro no against. Yes I do think about it, sometimes when everyone’s talking. No actually not much. Then it passes. Newspaper?? Ya I read. No news channels, unless it some 26/11 or tsunami o world cup coverage. No I don’t read the newspapers, just page 3. It depresses me. Just the headlines sometimes. Just a glance. But I prefer lis...
