All I can say:
I love You!


Salute the man in the mirror,
Never say never to the man in the mirror,
Give it all to the man in the mirror,

--Every morning I am able to see myself in the mirror without shame, remorse or any guilt and that my friend is the only time I am honest to myself. Rest, I am just playing a role.






A perfect holiday is when you don’t remember,
under the dark sea blue sky of December,
For how long at the stars you gazed..?
Spotting each constellation as a kid you had crazed!!
If just spotting was not enough
Discovering my own also was not tough..
‘The Footballer’ I drew with my imaginary lines
V neck t-shirt and dressed to the nines.
Talking to stars, as if I understood their language
Anyone who tried to contact- please leave a message
"I want to see a shooting star" thee said
As if spontaneous, I pointed: "quick, look behind ur head"
The diamond studded sky was my personal drawing board,
the breeze and the waves, played the music in silent mode..
the sand in my feet, soaking my weight away,
the candle on the table, reminding me to burn and light today.
It was morning only when my lips kissed the chilled wine..
N/A was the answer when asked ‘last night where did we dine?’
Clicking pictures of the view was such a waste of time,
Never seen a picture that captured the beauty of a sunset the way I saw
the sun the ship the water the beer and me in a perfect line.
There was only one rule thy followed,
Plan less do more,
Swim less, lazy on the shore
Brain less, heart to the core.
Note:
-they say if you wish on a shooting star, your wish comes true.... if that is to be believed and this holiday was for real, i assume i was caught in a METEOR SHOWER..
-i have actually been able to spot 'The Footballer' on a clear sky night.... its next to the Orient (the hunter) and the small dipper forms its cuffs.
Is it yesterday already?
When I thought, I was asking for too much;
had never dared to even dream for anything such.
Is it yesterday already?
When it added flavor to the movie;
music needed it to sound more groovy.
Is it yesterday already?
When I feared I was weak..
the feeling was terrible, funny and unique;
my world that was sound proof, detected of a leak.
Is it yesterday already?
When I wanted to run from my shadow,
such was the result of the afterglow..
surely could have sold a scoop to the radio.
Is it..?
When I contemplated needs and wants..
When I was color-blind to right and wrong..
When in my dreams I thought I cried….
When all my luck I thought had dried….
Is it yesterday already?
When 3 months looked like ‘A Misson on the Himalayas’.
Is it yesterday already?
When…
YES, it is tomorrow already|
Am standing at the peak of Himalayas, enjoying the view,
Looking at the trail I made, Repeating “God, thank you”!!
A celebration was more cheerful, when you didn’t understand why the party,
all u cared about was, you have the knife that will cut the cake…
all u knew was, that no one else gets to open the gifts….
A meal was more satisfying when you didn’t know the nutrition value,
all u cared about was, you have to finish your food before your sibling….
all u knew was, you have to chew 32 times per bite….
Dancing was more passionate when you didn’t know about the forms,
all u knew was, that you didn’t care who was looking….
all u cared about was you can hear a beat that tell your body to move….
Sleeping was more refreshing when you didn’t know how many hours make a ideal sleep,
all u knew was, that you didn’t care when u have to wake up….
all u cared about was you have a hand patting on ur back….
We crawled, as infants…. Bruising here and there
We ran, a toddlers…. Falling here and there
I swam, as a kid…. Gasping now and then
I drove, as a boy…. Bumping now and then
You expected, as a adult…. Failing here and there,
You expected, as a man…. Failing, Bumping, Gasping, Falling, Bruising all the time.
The same bruise today, horrifies us
The same fall today, embarrasses us
Gasping today is unacceptable
Bumping today is not allowed
The same expecting today is not expected..
Love was more romantic when we didn’t know when valentines was,
all u didn’t know was, what expectations meant….
all u didn’t care about was, what you get in return….
Maana ki jo hua hai
Wo tune bhi kiya hai
Inhone ne bhi kiya hai
Unhone ne bhi kiya hai
Maana ki tune..haan haan
Chahaa nahi tha lekin
Tu jaanta nahi ki ye kaise ho gaya hai
Lekin tu phir bhi sunle
Nahi sunega koi
Tujhe ye saari duniya kha jayegi
Nigal ke.
-lyrics from RAAT KE MUSAFIR, song from Gulaal
It’s a week n little more into this new year
too new than anything I could have imagined
been weak n little more
too strong than I had even imagined
Change is the only thing constant in life,
I always believed strongly
didn’t know a day will come when
being constant will be the only change
Thunder struck with the wonderful effect of lightening so bright
Rained heavy, to get us all dancing in it
no stone left unturned
no drink left undrunk
Rainbow, at night I guess it is rare
It had four colors, the max our pockets could bare
‘ishq kamina’ was the song
being 1st timers, somethings even went wrong
most importantly it was an orgasm all night long
From unlimited bottles of beer
to scotch with soda to cheer
where ex girl-friends come and dance without fear
Friends flying in from far, from not...
some super cold, some purely hot
Day started with beer brunch
surely 3 more sessions to go post lunch
managing some work, between this time crunch
The stealer was the cocktail night
the music was talking to the light
and the dance floor conquered by the kings’ knights
Some black out and some sleep on the floor
still every one is on time for fun galore
drawing room check
band bajao
aare ghodi pe chadao,
Pre mixes check
head banging on the dhol,
u don’t worry, thats our role
phera bag check
sit on sofa at the stage,
come steel the shoes if u have got the rage
rajpath bag check
6 to baj gaye aab to kya karega room mai jaa ke
soo jate hai yahe do chaar lagake
If your back hurts and neck acts as if it’s actually wired
you have done nothing that can get you tired
so get up sweetheart be at office or you are fired
Detox, today and till another tomorrow
when u feel the fun and the sorrow
"It has already happened" I hear from some.
"It cannot have already happened" says my memory “it’s just my illusion, its a morning dream”
At last – the photographs and the videos yield, saying “Yes the Nagpal dream has come true!!”
….. it is so,
Trust me today, or u shall believe it tomorrow.
It is a thought from the past of a conversation about the future,
if only this recurring thought could be controlled, would it actually be called living in the present….
For securing the next step, the ‘aha’ moment of now becomes not so important,
well not a lot can be done about it, cause its none other who is at the gaining or the losing end,
surely can be suggested as a very selfish thought, never the less a perception un-defined….
Life consists of 3 pillars, the yesterday, today and tomorrow,
most of today is spent correcting the yesterday, no doubt it being the best that could be done in that situation;
and the rest in forecasting what can be the available problems tomorrow and the safer option.
“I touch gold n it turns copper!!”, he said
She looked but didn’t react,
He repeated his words, she simply ignored….
once more and that was it, as soon as he started
“whatever I touch……”
She brought up her hand and said 2 words “touch this”
He didn’t understand
she said again “touch this”, pointing at a ring in the thick of her hand….
and continued even before he could react
“ touch this and lets c if this turns copper”
She pulled his hand and made him touch the diamond and the gold,
“will this turn copper now….” She asked expecting no reply
“if it had turned copper, it was not pure….
Never say this again and of yourself be sure!!”
