UnInt--ERR-upted!!!

I decided it was time for me to clean my wardrobe. So I set to work on it when someone called me up and asked me, "Ma'am can you spare 2 mins. We would like you to give us feedback on Whoa-Da-Fone's superior network coverage."
"Yeah, I guess"
Sighing heavily!
"Thank you very much Ma'am."
Walking to the kitchen to have a drink.
"Ma'am are you online?"
"Yeah."
Duhh!
"I am happy to inform that we have a new offer..."
Walking back to my bedroom...
A faint voice in the background "He--ll--o Ma-----dam..."
Me in reply "Yeah..errr...Hello...Hello..."
Shucks man!
"Ma'am are you there."
"Yes. I am! Please go ahead."
I decided to take the newspaper from the drawing room...while she kept talking I could check out some interesting stuff.
After much ranting from her end...I figured out that Amir Khan maintains a blog and I should check it out now.
"Are you willing to take this special offer Madam?"
"I'm sorry, can you please brief me on this once again."
Guilty I felt. Decided to walk back to my room.
"Sure! So Ma.........#%#%%^!@!"
"Huh? Hello"
"&(*&(&$@# Dam...I was...Sayi...."
"Hello"
I kept walking...the signal must be dying down...I thought
" ing that this offer"
Ok clear now...which meant signal was strong if I stood in a particular position and facing this direction. Perfect! I kept balancing myself...gave up..
"Blurr...$%$%#^@$#....errr"
"Hello..."
".................(read:silence)............."
"Hello"
Line got cut!

Well, so much for the uninterrupted network coverage you promised!

Why he lives...

He lived a very lonely life.
He laughed alone, cried alone,
He kept waiting, in vain he thought...
until one day he found her.
She hugged him whenever his heart felt lonely again.
She gave him small kisses and then would run away, it made his heart light.
She danced like she had no worries. It made him cry out of joy.
She sang hymns for him, and he silently prayed that nobody took her away from him.
She told him stories with no meanings...
She did little things for him, little insignificant things in the world's eyes...
but things, little and insignificant, meant the world to him.
She cried whenever he fell ill or fell down.
She lifted him up whenever he slipped...
With her smile she lit his days...She loved him...truly
They took long strolls together
They played silly games
They built sand castles
They never once forgot that they were 'one'
Until one day, she was gone
He kept looking for her But she was gone
Gone forever.
But before she left, she gave something that changed his life forever...
She brought back the child in him
She showed him how beautiful life is
She brought back the confidence he lacked
She made him a champ among his friends
She turned him into a star...
He was not lonely
anymore
He had got a new life
The life that she gave him
She blessed him forever
And he 'Lives'
for what she gifted him.

Sometimes...

I want to lose my self
Sometimes I want to forget I exist
Sometimes I want to cry like I'm being stabbed
I want to run away from the crowds...
I feel like blurting out my feelings
But that block...
It keeps choking me
Sometimes I ask God to take away the 'Block' out of my life
Sometimes I talk to him loudly and start crying..but then suddenly I start smiling
I see him...but I see the block more often
He spreads his wings over me at night
I get scared and clutch the rosary tightly...
Once again the wings...they pass...this time sensing his presence...
Turning to engulf someone else...
Oh God...I don't want to see the eagle again...
Sometimes I feel like I have nothing to lose
Sometimes I feel someone wants to take away what little I have
The wings...they bring fear
I feel feverish...
Sometimes I laugh out loud like life is beautiful
Then suddenly I am reminded of the wound
The eagle smiles at me
Mocking
I search frantically for him
I see him
Fighting hard to keep the wings away...
But my deliberate efforts deepen the wound and the wings
They come the next night...
Sometimes...
I am possessed...
By good and bad
I can't tell which is what
But
Sometimes...I am not me.
