Anger Management 101

I was attempting to write something funny here, but the rhyming forced a wrong turn. I hate that every second line rhymes, but I couldn't really do anything about it. But I think I will work on a humorous piece sometime later. Meanwhile, try ignoring the rhyming scheme.

Punch a pillow,
Kick a chair.
Smash a glass,
Pull out your hair.
Close your eyes,
But don't despair.

Scream and shout,
And whine and glare.
Now simmer down,
The world is here.
Breathe in, my love,
It's time to repair.
For the world can't know,
Of the turmoil in there.
The chemicals will leave,
The dark disappear.
So close your eyes,
And dont despair.
Because my love,
The world is there.

Naina

Niches

After a long time, I used paper and pen to write. It's been raining heavily for the last one week here, this vision triggered something, somewhere. Happy Diwali, everyone.

***

Two wires,

Lying in the rain

Touched each other,

Sent sparks sprayin'.

In the dark,

There was light.

Something dangerous,

Yet, something bright.

I look back,

To that moment,

When two wires,

Lying in the rain

Touched each other,

And sent sparks sprayin'.

Naina

Out of the Blue

Another one from the days gone by. I think I was on an overload of cheese when I wrote this.

Reminder: I was only a child when this was written, don't be too harsh on me!

And Varun, this one does not rhyme. Sorry. 

Out Of The Blue

Today, as I was walking down the road,

I suddenly saw a someone

Who looked just like you.

And before I knew it, my heart ached

To see you, to meet you again.

I thought of all the times when I needed you

And how I always found you there.

The times when I needed a shoulder to cry upon

And how you always lent me yours.

The times when I wanted someone to be happy with

You were always there, somehow.

The day we parted ways, with tears streaming down our cheeks,

We promised to keep in touch, and forever be friends.

But somehow, we lost each other,

And today, dear friend, I miss you

And wish you were here to tell me

That you miss me too.

And suddenly, I see you, walking towards me,

With a smile on your face which says,

“Thinking about me?”

And I grin and think you did it again.

Once again, when I needed you

You came to me, somewhere out of the blue.

Later, in the evening, as I walked back home,

I asked my God what I had done,

To have gotten a friend like you.

And I heard a voice within me say

“ Your friend just asked the same about you.”
