State of Mind

I wrote this one a long time back in November and put it up in my main space on 5th November…just before I left for my trip to Goa… it was penned in one of my "swinging state of mind" :) ...when I was a little upset about a lot of things... *sigh*

When I think of you
I get lost
Past present future
Everything loses meaning
You do know, don't you?
For this state of mind,
There’s no cure

Smiles...laughter...tears
Of joy and of sadness
So many emotions
Flood my mind
Yet I go through each day
I tell you
I’m going thru the motions
daily grind

You want me to be otherwise
change things around me
I wish I cld...

Or do I?
 

Sometimes I’m confused
Sometimes I think you're right
Sometimes...I think
Who am I? What am I?

I'm searching for answers
I can't find them
These questions haunt me
When you lose patience
You tell me
Live with them!

Don’t you see?
I am living with them!!!

When I think of you
I get lost
Past present future
Everything loses meaning

For this state of mind,
Why is there no cure?

  1. Really like the new look...

    Now about the post: Who is that one eyed lady?

    Last line, "why is there no cure?" the thought that comes to my mind is: if thinking of someone makes you get lost, and everything loses meaning...means you're in love :) Don't find a cure, be happy to experience such a state of mind!

  5. "....I'm searching for things that I just cannot see
    Why don't you don't you don't you come and be with me
    I pretend to be cool with me, want to believe
    That I can do it on my own without my heart on my sleeve
    I'm running, I'm running, catch up with me life
    Where is the love that I'm looking to find
    It's all in me, can't you see, why can't you, why can't you see it's all in me...."

    Remember these lines fro'Turn off the lights" by Nelly Furtado??
    The mood matches perfectly,isnt it??
