Words ?

Verbal expressions are not easy; you see

Easier to pen them down to read

One tries hard to hide

The expressions sometime

Love, hurt, care; are simple words

They don’t capture the emotion one feels

At times the word one says

Make a mess of the emotions in sway

Oh how easy it would be

If the words mean what you see

No matter what you say

No one will see it that way

Chase those demons away

Say what you feel that way

Emotions come and go

Words linger on

Words are a flux

Mind meld is a must

Till such time; capture the essence

Use words as a fragrance

Engineering college days

Beer, Cigarettes, us chasing girls

Oh the college day summers

New people you meet

Some friends you keep

The lab work to do

Work submissions uncompleted

The copying on GT sheets

Late night work; work completed

The year finished, results here

Some smiling, some crying

Easy come; easy go

Start from scratch, same old work to do

Beer, Cigarettes, us chasing girls

Oh the college day summers

New people you meet

Some friends you keep

Another year, new work to do

Some guys are good and some need help

Struggle; late nights; get work done

Another year is done

Final year results here

Some are engineers, others another year to go

End of the blast we had

Now to jobs; responsibilities to take care of

Beer, Cigarettes, us chasing girls

Oh the college day summers

New people you meet

Some friends you keep

Perfect Day

Not a cloud in the sky

No birds flying by

The cool breeze I feel

Reminds me of places I’ve seen

A sense of déjà-vu

I’ve been here before

Was it in a dream?

Was it real?

The serenity of the day

Tells me to find inner peace in some way

How easy life would be

If each day was like today
