Thoughts at Dawn

Blessed are the dead from this hideous world
ruled by the unholy,ungodly and the engimatic,
Untroubled I was, sleeping till i woke
to the days filled with anguish and eternal sins

Blissful are the deaf for they cannot hear the
neverending scream that breaks the silence at dawn,
It ends no sooner than its echoes, only to be left
pondering at his inner voice filled with lies

Fearless are the blind for they cannot visualise
the future bringing in more bleeding dawns,
Hell seems easy to be escape with this life that
i live in, repeating itself in a pattern for eternity

Cursed are the dumb for they cannot shatter his
endless sleep buried with confounding lies
The curse is same as mine for lame is my
voice which cannot shatters his very ears

Strangled by world, orphaned by life,
I gaze into the unending well of her demise,
waiting for a thousand and eighty two days
of torment to end in a heart beat
Dream my creator forever I'm your sleep.

Away from India

Being away from home is one of the most bugging things in life. It gives you so many things to take care of; responsibilities you'd be proud if your child had, but really not interested in having them yourself. It is said that it transforms a boy into a man. But for people like me, who've already been through this transformation it doesn't really matter
Language is a small barrier, not because I do not know Japanese. I infact know japanese very well, the only problem being that the people here do not know the Japanese that I know! I know numbers from ippon to nihon(thanks to the innumerable number of tequila shots that i had on new years eve when i was here last time), then I know arigato, and I also know a bunch of expletives which play a vital role while interacting with my people here. Honestly, I can understand japanese as good as i speak persian, very well provided it is spoken when i am too drunk. Whether I learn to speak japanese fluently or not I've started teaching them english.
Houses are generally too spacious, giving the picture of a Rashtrapati bhavan (minus the rooms,balcony terrace and the bathroom) . But here, they are very well furnished. Though the rooms are small, we generally do not face a problem since Arjun Singh has not yet introduced reservations in this segment. If that happens, I'll have to keep one leg outside while taking bath I believe. And then one washing machine per floor, which 25 of us use till the coil burns or the clothes are torn apart.
It is supposed to be spring season here in tokyo. It was infact raining heavily when I landed here and continued to do so for a week, after which the meteorological department played spoilsport. They predicted extremely heavy rainfall here from the 1st of may. The rains stopped on the night of 30th April. Since then, the sun has been shining brightly as if the heads of thousands of Deve Gowdas are being used as reflectors here. I strongly recommend to countries all over to stop investing the money in Met Dept and instead start a dating forum which would be a lot more profitable. Or it can even be used for other useful purposes like teaching Arjun Singh simple mathematics - percentages in particular.
Girls are one of the main reasons people do not wish to leave japan!! One thing which I miss majorly is being out of touch with pubs in pune especially kiva :(:( Those of you who are still around checking this blogspace, HELP!! please help me outta this place!!
Somebody go and eat something on my behalf and pay for it without fail! its been three weeks here and i have not had a meal so far :(:(

Solitude

Death quick and calm as it may come
Yet calm, rejoiced, I am with her nearby
Comfortably wrapped warmly in a quilt
As the cold wind hits the window panes

Here i lay with my thoughts so secure
Feeling not a pang of guilt for the past
With a loved one so close by
Yet calm, rejoiced, with her at my side

Accompanying me at the wee hours
with shattering dreams tearing my sleep
only to wake to a feeling of hate and anger
Yet calm, rejoiced, with her at my side

Hopes of a future wanes as the light fills
For she exists only in darkness
Though have never seen her eye to eye
Yet calm, rejoiced, with her at my side

Naked she shall be as the dead ones
She raises and sinks fast through the sea
Leaving the time we spent to mere memories
Yet calm, rejoiced, with her at my side
