My mobile screams
Its Taylor Swift " I wished it was me"
Wake up folks its 6 am
Let's face another hectic day
Another day of terror and challenge
Unlike the good old days
when life was even simpler
when mobiles were  not a necessity
but communication still exists
in close knit families
Life was even greater
When smartphones and computers
were gadgets of the future
Still relationships went on smooth and happier
Life was even lovelier
when Apples and Blackberries
were merely fruits
for juices and desserts.
but still we need to strive
to face another day
in this concrete jungle
and adapt our life....

Tonight
I'm getting drunk-
I don't care
If I'm not supposed to
I just want
To feel
Warm
For
Once.
She decided she'd go through with it
She took her razor blades
And sat on the stairs in front of her New York apartment
Every time a person would walk by
She would cut
In that one day she learned more than she had in all her school years
Wrists ******, vision blurry, eyes pleading
She sat and cut and cut
Until it was sunset and no one had stopped her
She saw averted eyes, children pulled out of the way
Streets crossed, pitying eyes, shudders
But no one helped that teenage girl
So as the last walked by
She cut again
And died, not of blood loss but despair
*(They noticed her then)

Why?

Do you know?
Do you want to know?
Why ask a question not answered?
Is it possible to breath without living?
Can you watch without seeing?
Do you believe what can't be proven?
Why should we keep faith when we've been lied to so many times?
Do you believe everything you read?
What book are you reading?
If one religion is true, will all others burn in some kind of hell?
Why do winning athletes think God likes them more than the losers?
Do people believe what they want to believe?
What? Why?
It seems like yesterday
I was young ,
an innocent sweet bride
embarked on my new life with my mate
but time has a way of moving quickly
and catching you unaware of the passing years
I wonder where all the years went
Now I only have
glimpses of how it was back then
and of all my hopes and dreams.
Here it is ... on summers day
It catches me by surprise
How did I get here so fast?
Where did the years go
and where did my youth go?
Met an old friend of mine...
looking tired, all old and grey
she brought the news of our retiring friends
some are dying on hospital beds
some are walking slowly in old folks home
some have gone senile and forgotten their way homes
I hugged my old best friend
told her to rest as much as she could
I am thinking now of how lucky I am
To complain of a few creaking bones of mine
I should feel ashamed!
Most people enter into this new season
of their life unprepared for all the aches and pains
and the loss of strength and ability
to go and do things that they wish they had done but never did!!
  I'm not sure how long I will last...
But through another winter.. spring and summer
I wish I could still live to breathe
I am not yet ready for the day
when my life is over on this earth...
yet to begin a new adventure of life...
in the hereafter.....
met a friend, she told me this story and I have written this... for my own reminder about life.
A life without love is not living

It's

merely existing
I may not have much
but all that I have is yours
and yours

alone
You jumped
I jumped
You died
I didn't
I wished
I died with my betrothed
but I survived , I lived...
God had chosen me
to live
to tell about
this greatest love of us
The epic romantic disaster
a love saga
between Jack and Rose
and the mystery of Titanic
the famous sinking ship
in history....
RIP Jack and Rose...
