The Boy Next Door . . .

The boy next door
when I was four
Has been around always 

Doesn’t matter where he went
He would pass by my door
Peeping in for me to join

We were friends since then
Hitting each other on the face
Singing the songs out of tune

Hitting plans together
Never had we some rest
Unless we put someone in trouble

The boy next door
When I was easy to lure
Stood by my side just in case

Doesn’t matter where I went
He would call me up
Just to know that I am safe

We were friends even then
Arguing about our mates
Dancing in the rain

Planning dates together
Never really doing our best
Unless we want to piss each other off

The boy next door
When my heart was dead
Held me tight in his arms

Doesn’t matter where we went
He would make me laugh
Slowly healing all my pain

We never stopped being friends
Loving each other in the end
Walking around being insane

Having all the fun together
Never seriously giving a damn
Unless it was our companionship at stake


This is somehow a product of listening to "The Galway Girl" for way too long. I have been singing it in the same tune as the The Galway Girl and it sounds cool. You may try as well but I don't think you would be successful. Though I know this doesn't make sense but this is just a lost-crazy-insomniac mind singing here. But I still hope you make some sense out of this non-sense or simply feel the fun mood that was involved in typing the whole of this. [ ;-) ]

Leukemia... Not Just a Disease!

People who have not suffered from leukemia think it is a deadly disease, obviously they’re right and for people who come to know that they’re suffering from leukemia are most of the times devastated, provided they know what leukemia is! And as far as my reaction is concerned…well then I was not in a state of shock because then I just knew I had some kind of a problem in my blood and I did not even know leukemia is blood cancer. It was 6 months after my treatment started that I came to know what Leukemia is…Thanks to my Grandfather! Even then I wasn’t upset much, probably just a bit, as I knew I am going to be fine. For me, Leukemia was never just a disease, when I say never I mean it. It has given a meaning to my life. My stay in CMC, Vellore and my Leukemia has taught me a lot of things which some people fail to learn and realize in their life time. Here are six of my realizations:          There is no bigger exam than LIFE itself - Life is t...

Why am I Single? ? ?

  Because I have built walls around my heart. So even if someone starts getting close to me they cannot penetrate through the walls as I have used Ambuja cement. [:-P] And if by any chance I get a proposal, I am angry about it. So you see, NO chance!   Because I cannot imagine falling in love, not that it is something to imagine but still ‘Me in Love' is the joke of my life and I can really laugh about it for hours. In fact I have been laughing for a long while now. [Hopeless Romantic of all times.]   Because even though it was for a short time period but I had the best relationship which had no demands, no expectations, and no complaints. When they started arising, the relationship ended. [:-P] Because I cannot tolerate any kind of dominance and the ones I see these days, ‘Why do you upload your photo on FB’ ‘Deactivate your account’ ‘You can’t talk to other guys’ ‘you can’t click a photo with them because you’re with me’ 'blah blah blah'  are ...

Dear Hypothetical Kids, For once Moon was your Mother's Muse!

I spent the entire day reading about the once-in-a-lifetime lunar eclipse.  Super Blue Blood moon.  ‘Can the name not be short?’, I thought just like I had thought about my cancer - Pre B Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, ten years ago. I saw people sharing the time of eclipse’s visibility in different places.  ‘Ahh, not in India.’ Cool things never happen in India,  sighed the multiple-times-disappointed-kid in me.  But, then. I saw someone share the time of visibility in the metro cities of India.  I googled immediately, ‘Lunar eclipse visibility in Hyderabad.’ I saw many articles describing the reasons behind this particular eclipse being unique. I gave it a thought, not much. I am not one of those moon-watchers, you see. The idea of moon’s beauty brought the idea of longing lovers.  I tried, I tried really hard, to bring together love, longing, and moon. It never happened. But, for a little while, somewhere in my...
