Thanks for dropping by at my boulevard of broken dreams.

There is nothing called life
Nothing called fate
Nothing called truth
Nothing called nothing

Look around you
It’s not the same
It’s what you choose to believe in
Or for that matter what you do not believe in

It’s all over
Adios

Very interesting title. What followed was not very expected but I can see where the two relate.

Belief sometimes, is everything.

God, save me from the woes of a blank canvas!

Too many choices.
Not enough choices.
Both can be equally agonising.

Each day starts like the others, with room for play between the lines. It’s those unspecified moment that makes each day unique. Even in a seemingly monotonous existence, there are quiet hints and subtle tints of differences.

Why do these moments often pass unnoticed? Is it because we so often choose to let pass away?

A fleeting sense of jamais vu, you might call it. A canvas etched with invisible paint doesn’t sound like a bad idea at all.

What say?

Ironic. You miss the details, the seeds of randomness, *because* youre lost in the details. Too engrossed in the detail to decipher the pattern.
Interesting thoughts those. Set you thinking...

My dreams avoid my consciousness, mock my will to understand life.
So when I wake up most mornings, I am empty.
I wake up like a slice of fiction sandwiched between facts.
Forged with unclouded dreams.
I miss all kinds of things suddenly.
I overwhelm myself by craving for those eyes to meet mine, the ears to meet my words, the hands to meet my hands.
Waiting for my daydreams to meet the night.
It’s as if I’ve returned from the sea, unable to make contact with the natives on the shore, waving their hands to me.
I need someone’s feet to dance with mine to this tune of craving.
So that I gather the things I don’t understand.
I understand what my life’s missing.
I must figure out before I leave the ship.
I don’t want to sink with it.

It’s a nice bright morning.

I can see the clear white clouds on the crisp blue sky from the tiny little pockets visible behind the green leaves.

I am floating free on the sunny streets.

The sunlight is so low, it reflects back from the masked door, right into my eyes.
It’s difficult to see where I’m going, but I don’t really mind.
I reflect nothing, I suck the light inside me and try to abolish the darkness around.

I remember the time when I was up pretty early one morning and I saw the sun and the moon in the sky, at the same time... wish I could capture that moment.
Wouldn’t it be very much like the way I watch people carefully and shrug the strange differences off?

No, I have nothing to say to myself.

Mute.
Blind.
Deaf.
Silence.
Peace.

Seeing the sun and the moon in the sky at the same time is an amazing experience. I remember when I saw it, I had a camera, but they were so far apart that I couldn't capture it!

Thanks for dropping by my blog and for your comment!

If I’m very happy... it shows. Yeah. I make sure it does.
But when I’m not very happy, does it show? I don’t think it does. What shows is that I’m not VERY happy. But does it show that I’m sad?
Maybe it does... to someone. Someone who can read my mind. Someone I can’t fool. Someone I don’t wanna fool. Someone who knows me too well. Someone who wants me to be happy.
But if you have the guts to look at me. In the eye. The pain is clearly visible there.
I avoid the mirrors. I wish I were a vampire who lacks reflections. I wish I were blind to the reflections I make of myself on the faces and minds of other people.
I see nothing when I talk with them. I laugh in the right places and maybe fail to cry in the right ones.

I’m all fake!

I, unlimited

I light up the wrong side of the cigarette!

I went on a small walk, all by myself, in the rain, in the midst of work.

I pretended he just didn’t exist when I bumped onto him, near the stairs.

I sang ‘Bloom’ aloud while listening to ‘Vertigo’.

I had this faraway look while everyone was going berserk in the brainstorming session.

I gave back all the cold looks to people who think I am a -----.

I gave my boss a compliment, well… actually, he couldn’t read the hidden sarcasm.

I think I’ve lost an inch along my waistline and gained one where it matters most.

I wrote a letter and faxed it to get my handwriting analysed.

I look great! G said this shirt looks great on me, N said I look great in this shirt. Dunno whom I like more!

Still haven’t found what I’m looking for

I like the way we exchange quick, lighthouse kind of glances these days.

I have grown soft feelers on my temples and they are always aimed at your direction.
I sense your antennae as well

It’s just impossible not to enjoy the feeling.

The hunt is always the best part.
Every time my eyes fall on an intriguing soul, a prospective prey.
Walking along the roads of unknown.

Thank you for lighting my darkness, few seconds at the time, randomly.

The Soft Rock says...

Will you hold a rock in your hand?
And try and hear if it has a heart that skips a beat?
Do you have all the patience in the world to wait until it softens up?
Wait until it turns into a piece of life?
Can you keep it inside your soft hand until it has the courage to turn into a flesh?
Do you feel it growing on you?
Do you see the tiny cracks spreading all over its surface, giving way to a larger rift?
How does it feel to hold something that’s writhing in pain?
Have you ever tried listening to what a rock has to say?
The soft murmurs that are almost impossible to hear?
Will you keep it close to you, and hum to it softly as the darkness falls?

Can you care for a stone?
Will you?

I don’t think I will!
(And that title was not inspired by soft porn!)
