Strange
Strange are the days with each day being the same
I wake up trying to a give the day an inspiring name
Today I will do this; I will do that, I think
But I only manage an empty blink
Today I will be like this; I will be like that, I mull
But I only manage waiting for someone’s pull
Today I will change this; I will change that, I say
But I only manage to hold-on only half way today
Strange are the imaginations of mine
I think someone has sullied my mind with muddy slime
I doubt of someone’s spell,
Shoving me down into the dark hole of slothfulness
I doubt of some cast jinx,
Pulling me down into the labyrinth of carelessness
I doubt of the predatory sphinx,
Terrifying me down into the cul-de-sac of slackness
Strange are my behavioral attributes
I barely manage a to stay afloat during the life’s commutes
I loose my temper over petty irritation,
For I seek unquestioned admiration
I loose my vision when I come across a hurdle,
For I seek shortcut as a rightful dole
I loose my sense of determination,
For I seek a way towards easy gratification
I loose my interest on being discouraged,
For I seek unopposed recognition from the blessed
I loose my self-esteem at the drop of a hat,
For I seek self-respect readily laid out on a mat
I loose my sleep over an uncertain future,
For I seek success hand-delivered as a simple gesture
I loose my belief when I see the next best take the lead,
For I seek to be ahead no matter what the need
These seem to be my eternal ways
The overweight strangeness holding me sways

Zero Sum Game
(Seven) Months back
I was hurt, felt pain running through my veins
I cried, but I tried hard to blur my pains
I thought hard, I asked why
I fought hard, I asked why
But no answers came by
(Seven) Months back
I was hurt, like never before
I cried, but I tried to stand straight like never before
I thought hard, I willed, not be budged
I fought hard, I willed, not be nudged
But nothing came by
(Seven) Months back
I was hurt, for hurting some ones sentiments
I cried, but after hurting others over their predicaments
I thought hard, I asked, did I hurt anybody
I fought hard, I searched, the hurt somebody
But none came by
(Seven) Months have past
Changing things the way, as only time could
Changing things the way, as only time should
For it is true, time is the only healer
For it is true, time is the only resort for a feeler
(Seven) Months have past
Making me realize, justice is round the corner
Making me realize, justice is real sweeter
For it is true, crests and troughs are one and the same
For it is true, life is a zero sum game.
