Why?

I think I'm losing it. Well, don't rejoice just yet; I'm not referring to my mind; I'm talking about the ability to write something that I would not fall asleep to. Its been quite a while since I wrote anything apart from songs and snippets of my perception of wisdom. But what I really want to do, is to conjure one single solid paragraph, that's not left wanting in something. Every recent attempt at accomplishing this has ended up in the prose being inadequate in structure, language, meaning or flavour. Like authentic Chinese Cuisine. And darn the red line that has just popped up underneath the "flavour" - an upshot of the American infatuation with opposing the British way of life. And I'm not a great fan of the British either. I digress; Crap, the clogging of my stream of thought seems to be getting the better of me again. So before you cut me off, (Static buzz in the background with a vague vision of a screen that cant render an image for nuts owing to its slower than death refresh rate and a mysterious flicker that's ever prevalent in horror movies) here's declaring a war (-buzz-) on you, mind. I'm gonna (-buzz- -flicker- -buzz-) kick your (-buzz-) butt and get back to writing stuff that's (-flicker- -buzzz-) readable and writable. Dang it! I'm talking to myself again. Now, you may rejoice. Adios homies!

Eatable Quotes - Brainless

At some point you begin to realize that its lack of information and not the inability to interpret, extrapolate and analytically predict whats going on.

Fly

Giddy giddy giddy giddy
All the way around.
And now I kinda feel tall
Hold me fore' I fall.

My fancy words are all broken
Even inside my head.
Words that feel so heavy
Like a ton of solid lead.

The music sounds so loud to me.
It makes me wanna scream.
24 different notes I hear
Screeching loud and clear.

One goes down the corridor
Another one down the drain
Thinkin' and talkin' of heaven,
I think I'm already there.

I dont think I'm wasted
I just think I'm cool
Please drop by and watch me,
While I act like a fool.

I'll tell you what I wanna do
It might not sound so real
But I think I might just jump the sun
Coz thats the way I feel.

Hold on! I will come about
Its just a matter of time.
Dare me and I'll pay you back
Dollar, Nickel and Dime.

One goes down the corridor
Another one down the drain
Thinkin' and talkin' of heaven,
I think I'm already there.

A remote birthday

As a friend once told me, I'm lucky enough to say a "Wish you the Same" when my sister wishes me Happy Birthday. Here's wishing you a very happy birthday Varsha. And thanks for paying up the interest accruing on my loan.. hehehe.. Now, there's some money you'll never be seeing again in your life. Hopefully I'll be able to make it to Bangalore in December. Until then... Be Happy, earn well and pay my interest on time.. he he he..

Love,
Harsha.

Growing up

Wake up lil' baby
Grow up my child
Its painful to remember
The way you once smiled.

Blanket your mind with
Sodden shades of gray,
No Son-of-God can ever stop,
This tyranny of time.

And there were blue skies
And there were flowers
And there were birds that sang
And swift happy hours.

The reasons were never there
The seasons, we never cared
The innocence we ever shared
You and I.

Sometimes its hard to hear
Past the siren that blares
Serves you well to close your ears
And pretend its just the air.

The stories you never hear
Are the ones that you live out.
I wonder if I was never told
Hoping I'd never see.

And there were blue skies
And there were flowers
And there were birds that sang
And swift happy hours.

The reasons were never there
The seasons, we never cared
The innocence we ever shared
You and I.

Getting used to an ancient tune
That reeks of hatred and pain,
We never cease to nourish the wrath,
And we Grow up all over again.

And there were burning trees
And barrages of thunder
And there were forgotten ties
And hearts broken asunder.

For reasons that never were
The seasons, they ceased to care
This innocence, we cannot share,
You and I.

Bunch o' my Brain - Conscience

Feels a lot like heaven
When you're outta your mind
And you're never what you're not
In the alleys of your brain.

Bunch o' my Brain - Perseverance

Let me sit, Let me stay
I'll rip it apart
I'll make it stay
I know it'll happen
Just about now.
You just gotta try -
One more time.

Bunch o' my Brain - Time and Hope

Helpless 'gainst the wheel
Pitched 'gainst the world
Time may run you out
But you never run out.

Bunch o' my brain - Sleep

The curtain's falling
It will not hold
Light binds tight
And dreams unfold
