God take away my intelligence



Give me back those times when
There were things I did and didn’t
Stay in the sun and climb a tree
Have enough money for peppermint

Give me back those times when
Feelings didn’t have words or voice
Laughter couldn’t contain happiness
Weeping was just another noise

Give me back those times when
We could hold hands for hours set
Never once did we ask
Why the girls’ hands were always wet

Give me back those times when
I could do things because I didn’t think
If this felt wrong or right
My decisions in eyes’ blink

Not once did I know
I wont have these when I grow
The tide of age will bury me deep
And my innocence will go to sleep

Never knew the stages of love
Holding her doesn’t mean u can kiss her now
You are afraid that she might know
She is scared, you might leave and go

All these years that I have grown
I’ve left behind parts of my own
All of that now makes so much sense
Intelligence is a loss of innocence

Being Single

The single guy is such a demeaning proposition. Unless someone has a “Single now” status a single status especially for a guy is such a troubling state of being.

Everybody is born with this status and depending on the age at which the guy becomes cognizant of this fact that he is actually relationshipless he starts bracing up to move away from this status. But here is the trouble. The “what” of the trouble is known, the “why of the issue is also pretty much understood but the “how” of the trouble is a perplexing one because there is not one technique that leads to a relationship. Let’s examine the very natural way of getting into a relationship, love. This is probably defined as the firs...

The Dream

It is important to dream big to achieve something big. I heard this line in a recent interview of Sachin Tendulkar. There is so much power in this statement. That particular dream gave him all the will power to become the most respected sports icon of the country. It’s the dream, a vision that fosters us with a certain scene and people like Sachin dedicate their lives to see that moment become a reality. If you are wondering why am I boring you with such an obvious testimony of a personality that every second Indian adulates, then things are just about to get interesting. I am writing to this to address a certain set of people who don’t have a dream, a la me. I don’t want to be the VP of my Co. 30 yrs down the line. Infact I don’t want to be the VP of any company. I don’t believe in what I am doing. Hence I don’t know what I want. I don’t have any vision of what my future should be like. I don’t aspire to be any one. I would love to see myself being interviewed on TV. But in that progr...
