Moving on....

And love
It's not the easy thing
The only baggage
That you can bring

Not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
Before the second you turn back
Oh no, be strong

Walk on
Walk on
What you got, they can't steal it
No they can't even feel it

Walk on
Walk on
Stay safe tonight
You're packing a suitcase for a place
None of us has been
A place that has to be believed
To be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird
In an open cage
Who will only fly
Only fly for freedom
Walk on
Walk on

What you got
You can't deny it
Can't sell it or buy it
Walk on
Walk on

You stay safe tonight
And I know it aches
How your heart it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on
Walk on


Hard to know what it is
If you never had one

I can't say where it is
But I know I'm going

That's where the heart is
And I know it aches
And your heart it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on

Leave it behind
You've got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you feel
All this you can leave behind
All that you reason
All that you care
It's only time
And I'll never fill up all my mind
All that you sense
All that you scheme
All you dress up
And all that you see
All you create
All that you wreck
All that you hate

"The Other Half" - Teaser

"Gawd!! He does have style...i do think he might like you!" she continued in her drawling tone.
"I mean, anyone who can write such a beautiful proposal about you, must think about you a lot.Waise bhi, i heard he wrote it impromptu...that sure as hell seems he definitely likes you!!!......" said Sumi as she kept twirling the rose in her hand.
I was enjoying this talk with my roomie, more so as it was about me....even more so that the topic of discussion was the object of our affection-Vinay.The third month of college and things were already turning interesting beyond my imagination. I was far away from home after much persuasion and much stolid farewells from my dad. The first time i attended a co-ed, the first time i ever had a guy writing poems to me at my fresher party....and the first time i was getting swept away by someone so good looking.
"...Hey! that need not mean that he loves you,yaar...he could just be good at this kind of thing...He is chaalu!" chipped in Rohini the wise one. She was elder to us and was pursuing her postgraduation. Pretty, sophisticated and rich..she had attitude. From men to mascara, sex to salvation, flirting to fashion tips..she had all the answers. She was our men's woman; the Oracle from rohtak.

Vinay was the archetypal bad boy, but he had attitude. He was smart and what was more, he didnt hesitate to show that to anyone, who tried to prove him otherwise. The smartest of the lot- poet, dancer,singer, studious,athelete, funny, babe magnet and a pompous prick to the rest of the guys. If he wasnt running out of scrapes, he would wait for his next hapless victim to open his mouth,
