Why do we fall?

In life
In dreams
In the darkness
Watching a distant lantern's gleam
Why do we fall?

Because of 'heart'
From a hilltop
Or a crashing plane from a dream
With a blaring scream
Why do we fall?

Like everyone else
Once I fell
And hence I asked
Why do we fall?
And I begged,
Mochiagete! Mochiagete!!

PS - "Mochiagete, tokihanashite!", line from a Linkin Park song 'Jornada del muerto' it means, "lift me up, let me go!"

Heart is in qoutes cos it's the wrong organ to blame!

blah! blah!!

There is a darkness in me, I do not know how it’s shaping me.. Or is it I, turning into me? To find the things choking me, I went to the desert across the sea, To find nothing but a lonely hill. I crept forward and climbed the hill. I saw; struggling worm, in a bird’s bill, I smiled; ‘It’s me who’s withholding me.’ ================================================ I’m gentrified, Oh! I didn't lie. I say this not to defy, But to say good-bye. I tried hard to play my part, But couldn't keep your thoughts apart. So, the hardest part was letting go, not taking part. I knew I had to tell, To break this spell. But you couldn't tell, What made me fall, And why you look so tall… =======================================================================

Pictures

All these wars All these peace talk All these love And all these hate Are painted deep into my mind Please, take these pictures away; go ahead Erase everything from my head All my good All my sins All my friends And every kith and kin Are painted deep into my mind Please, take these pictures away; go ahead Erase everything from my head Let me refresh ...

Death of a star!

I watched the folks in a jewellery store, gaping at the gold led before. They smiled and awed at the shining gold, and wondered why. Unaware, ignorant of the fact that it once shone brightly in the sky. In order for us to live, A star must die! The sun, the moon, the planets and asteroids, including    the earth where we reside. Once shone brightly in the sky. In order for us to live, A star must die! The air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat, the clothes we wear, the life we love, and the death we fear, it’s possible because  it  died. The things we love each other for to the gold we kill each other for, once brightly shone in the sky. In order for us to live, a star must die! A star that lived before us, brightly shone in the sky. It still shines brightly, as us, now that it has died. In order for us to live, a star must die! A star must die!       ...
