I Miss that


The day is about to end,
and the old playlist is shuffled,
old songs struck some old chords,
You know what, I miss that

The fight to watch the favorite cartoon show,
or the race to reach the best seat somehow,  
I remember how tiny super problems we had,
You know what, I miss that

Winning the marbles was an obsession,
and the barbie was a pride possession,
Little worlds had little treasures to hunt,
You know what, I miss that



Wake up early or wake up late, Everyday
A warm hug from Maa was just a couple of seconds away,
that love, that feeling is now 300 kilometers apart,
You know what, I miss that

Every summer new deck of cards were bought,
cause some idiot didn't remember where's the seven of clubs is lost,
those fifty two combinations created infinite laughs,
You know what, I miss that

Tom kept chasing and Jerry kept escaping,
While watching their game, our childhood got missing,
In the world of winners and losers, they taught us to enjoy the game,
You know what, I miss that

And now I look back at the memories I have,
A tiny smile appears on the grownup face,
A thought to re-live them wonders on my mind,
That time, that innocence, and that Life,
You know what, I miss that

The Book Thief

There are stories. There are good stories. And then there are stories which touch your soul. One such story is written by Markus Zusak, named as The Book thief. Narrated by the death itself, it's a story of a kid from Nazi Germany. Her name is Liesel. Living in a foster home, with her new Papa and Mama. But life is not fair with her. She has memories of a brother, she lost on a train. Her new mother is awful cook and pretty tough on her. She has nightmares every night. As she starts to live this new life on a place called Himmel Street, stuff keeps happening. She makes a best friend Rudy, who's has crush on her. Her father teaches her the art of reading from a book she has stolen from grave yard. And hence the title, the book thief. And then there's another important character, called Max. Who is a Jew in a Nazi Germany, who is given shelter in her basement. You go on a journey from a train, to a football match on street, to stealing apples and bread. From playing accordion...

Writer's block

It's a phenomenon which a writer stumbles into once in a while. Basically s/he is not able to write anything. Somehow, the thought cycle which connects to words resulting into something meaningful is broken.  In other words, Monday blues. Unable to work. But this is little different with a writer. In an office, there will be an external enforcer (a Boss, in fancy words). But with a writer, it has to be a force within. An Intuition. But that's the thing, right? The urge, the motivation, the intuition, at times, just fades out, once in a while. When the linearity of life just stops bothering you. You fall in love with the concept of dormancy. Basically you become a couch potato (Until your mom starts to scold). But I feel, sometimes this block is a necessity. In terms of  industrial engineering, it is called mandatory buffer. A system should never be run at its max capacity all the time, or it will fail. Just like humans.  In life too, we keep figuring out what's next, all ...

Inner Demons

Once upon a time there was a king. He was a nice person, a bit self obsessed though, with a benevolent heart. His image was great in the public. And he always emphasized on keeping it that way. So this one time, a small village within the state had a very big lake, it was so deep that even the professional divers couldn't find the bottom. It was the source of income for all the villagers. A giant monster with big horns had appeared at this lake from nowhere. He had destroyed many fishing boats, taken captured fishes, vandalized people. So villagers decided to approach the king, regarding this matter. Once they told the king about this, a little afraid king(inside), said he'll handle the monster himself. Cause he needed to maintain his greatness. His ego was too big before the fear. Next day, the king went to the lake, alone, to fight the monster. The monster and the king had a great battle. At a decisive moment, the king hit the monster very hard, bu...
