Stuck in a moment?

Filed under: Uncategorized — Teal @ 6:23 am

“I’m not afraid of anything in this world
There’s nothing you can throw at me that I haven’t already heard
I’m just trying to find a decent melody
A song that I can sing in my own company

I never thought you were a fool
But darling, look at you
You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere, baby

You’ve got to get yourself together
You’ve got stuck in a moment and now you can’t get out of it
Don’t say that later will be better now you’re stuck in a moment
And you can’t get out of it

I will not forsake, the colours that you bring
But the nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me
I still listen through your ears, and through your eyes I can see

And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it’s tough, and you can never get enough
Of what you don’t really need now… my oh my

You’ve got to get yourself together
You’ve got stuck in a moment and now you can’t get out of it
Oh love look at you now
You’ve got yourself stuck in a moment and now you can’t get out of it

I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm till you discover how deep…
I wasn’t jumping… for me it was a fall
It’s a long way down to nothing at all

You’ve got to get yourself together
You’ve got stuck in a moment and now you can’t get out of it
Don’t say that later will be better now
You’re stuck in a moment and you can’t get out of it

And if the night runs over
And if the day won’t last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass

And if the night runs over
And if the day won’t last
And if your way should falter
Along the stony pass
It’s just a moment
This time will pass

Some fact about the song written by Bono, the greatest [yeah i know :-D] can be found

here     I hope to see U2 perform this atleast once. ONCE! dammit 😦

My own chaos theory

Filed under: Life,Poetry,Sobriety — Teal @ 5:39 pm

The days drag on endlessly, it seems
stagnant is the state of my mind’s stream
Night & day alike, I ponder , I try
but cant stop asking myself, “Why?”

Cant question the almighty’s purpose
Can only count on my lessons learnt
Cant question the crossroad he’s brought us
Despite analysing, days laughed and wept

Cant deny the wavelengths that matched
Friendships that started long after I hatched
Cant forget the great times that have passed
Cant forget the fights that ensued

Can focus on my own self, after all this time
After friendships detriorate past their prime
Can only count on my thoughts and talent, sublime
And the green signal of the almighty divine

Cant question people’s views and actions
or my own moves and retaliations
Spent this life so far, sans a gud luck potion
A light leaf, floating along the stream’s motion

Cant deny letting my guard down, or having spoken
or having had my heart left alone and broken
But cant leave any grudge unavenged
or indifference of any kind, untackled

Is my present a blank tile, a slate?
Or am I too audacious to quesetion my fate?
Where will this journey lead me, what more?
Will the future see me happy or leave me sore?

Will I be having all the money for shopping sprees?
Will I be able to be as joyous free?
Will there be much more to venture, to see?
Will I take a chance, sans any guarantee?

Who knows what the future holds, I am told
So I’m leaving this puzzle on it’s own, to unfold
‘ve decided to move on, to cut all ropes
‘Cos I am stuck like a dope, with none but hope

The new day shall dawn, and we’ll see
the bonds clearly broken, those of misery
Soon the new chapter of this life will begin
The day when I’ll smile again, I’ll sing

The purpose of my life, I’ve come to know
Now I finally know which way to go
To any end I’ll go, I’ll achieve
Climb any mountain, swim every sea!

2008 – The year that will dawn all good and happiness!

Hola Amigos!

This year has dawned as a radiant ray of hope for the months and years that lie ahead. And yeah I have taken a few resolutions, and for once I am planning to stick by them!

Nah not one of those game plans that one lays for the next 5 years .. after trying to plan and then inevitably hearing out popular choices and sticking by them for years … I have decided to take life head on! 😀

My new year’s celebration happened outside the safe boundaries of my home, with the blowing of candles and eating of yummy pastry! I hope the ill luck tat came before that died with 2007.  :-O

This year is going to be instrumental for the way my life will go in the future … a few vital decisions and careful thought is on track for 2008.

Yeah I know it has been 2 weeks since the new year started, but yes,I wanted to post something positive in the first post of this year.

Today happens to be Pongal/Sankranthi.

Wishing you all the happiness and prosperity in the universe!

May this year lay the foundations for the path ahead.

Carpe Diem!
