~Void~


Ever felt lonely standing in the middle of the crowd? Ever felt like you are surrounded but no one is listening... or worse, that no one cares, no one knows who you are, how you feel, how you think? The deep void of loneliness smothers you. I have a large number of teens in mind as I write, who are going through this phase of their lives... looking for attention, affection, love n care; be it Real or Virtual. The longing of being someone 'special', being looked after and pampered arises in everybody's heart, mind and soul. The generation of this era is facing this quite often who join social networking sites to find people. The problem is that now they find themselves lonely not only in their actual world but in their virtual world too.

Void of human contact. Void of interaction...

I've been there. I've been in a place in my life when the yearning for a hug can be so overwhelming that your breath catches.

Real... intimate... something... anything...

It is during this hour when one needs the strength, the strength to face the storm with your feet firm on ground and the strength of character to overcome the tides of passion.

First Impressions

I remember the day when i first met you,
in a room fulla strangers narrating who's who.
There was something about you, something in the air,
that blotted out everyone's presence there.
What kept me occupied was how to be the best,
to make you see ME among the rest.
Tho' I cudn't see your point of view,
girl, how was i supposed to have a clue.

I just knew what I felt like, sailing on a high tide;
wanted to ask you so bad if you'd come along for the ride.
I didn't want to be a poser, nor a despo too;
I'd only wished that you'd see me for what I really am;
A simple guy, who wants to
Impress YOU.



And the reply to the above was:

"Totally smitten with your actions,
i had no idea what were ur intentions,
what ever it was, was totally awesome,
Forever last these First Impressions...."
