You could have had a hundred relationships,
And you could yet still find a hundred reasons to fall in love,
You could have a thousand kisses,
And you could have felt a million butterflies,
Every time you lose someone you thought was going to last forever,
Your heart will shatter into a million fragments,
And you have to teach yourself to pick your pieces up again..
For all the experience in the world, is not going to be enough for comfort,
You have to go back to the start to recover,
Find a reason to live, over and over, and over again.

The last memory of someone
Washed away finally, permanently.

-

It allows you to fall in love while your stomach is full.
Major bummer, love doesn't survive empty stomachs and broken dreams.

Getting wet in heavy rain felt liberating.
Asking out someone is always daunting.
Asking out someone in heavy rain tends to be difficult since you have to yell your feelings out loud.
But it isn't any less romantic. :)

Who were you a year ago,
Have you ever asked yourself that?
Would you say those words,
And not look back, into your fading past?
We often find ourselves ruing,
Caught in an undertow of regret,
But if you never did any of those things you did,
Would you be any better today?
Our remorse defines what we truly become,
Because happiness is but a passing whisper
Our joys merely allow us a pause
But it is our heartbreaks, that forever linger
Peeling our facades of pretense
That we'd carefully pieced together,
Sinking us into our lost senses,
Revealing us to be truly better.

-

I felt your cold fingertips,
From grasping your beer too tight,
I caught your scent,
After until you've left the room,
And I catch myself pondering,
I wish it were this long,
Since I flipped open the album
You've put together of us,
I'd rather have it lying, like it were,
Buried under our dust.

Probably as infinite as time,
Yet given away in only three words.

I always wanted to be someone famous.
For a long time, I wanted to be a cricketer. But I honestly was very boring at cricket.
My parents were very strict academically, and I had high performing cousins. Which meant, I was pushed to be the best at academics too.
And I obliged, I dreamt of being a scientist through most of my adolescence.
And then I wanted to grow up quickly, until I turned 25 and I realised I hated it, because no one told me about the responsibilities that came free with it.

-

You and I can dream
Those forbidden dreams again
Soak in moments that we hide away
In plain sight, during our work a day
When we pretend to be normal,
To the world's tunes, you and I, we play.

-

We are least expecting them.
And that's the truth about life, No perfect moment, but a flurry of chances, strung together accidentally.

You have to grab and hold on to them, hope that this is what you really wanted. If yes, you are lucky - if no, you hold on to them anyway.

That, is life.
