The Sunset!

             The time has come
             And I have to leave.
             There is nothing
             that could postpone this eve...

             I keep looking back
             withholding tears, so warm
             My eyes showing red
             And yet you are so calm!


Darkness is sinking in ;
stabbing every ray of hope...
I close my eyes
unable to bear your repose!

But that is no peace -
I know now for sure...
When my last glimpse of your face
caught the agony... that pain, so pure!

I shall hold to my hopes
still burning bright...
For, again shall we meet
in the morning light!!

Pamper, unexpected!

It was yet another day when I walked into the office... munching silently in my mind, all those pending work that had been pending for quite some time now. I kept my handbag, opened the laptop case and started setting up the system, in the same boringly usual manner that I have gotten so accustomed to by now. I dint complain but at the back of my mind I did reserve some hate for my seat.

It's been a little over a month since I came to this building... my seat is pretty locked away from the window... how it would be if I have to sit near those long glass panes, looking at the magnificient structures and satin roads and lovely lawns and just feel the life out there... how it would be to sit so close when rain drops kiss those glasses and trickle down the panes, unable to reach me yet! Awww... I envy those with window seats!!

As I push the network cord into it's port slot, tucking my head under my desk, I hear a soft tap above me...
"Hey, good morning!"
"Oh, hai... good morning... whats up?"
"mm... you might have to shift your place!"

I look around puzzled. Afterall, did I commit any crime to have been singled out and treated like that! :-o Then I see quite a number of seats, that were empty earlier been occupied now... There have been a big immigration activity early in the morning, I understood.
"Okie... aa, where do I sit?"
"ah... am.. you want to sit in the same bay or want to shift elsewhere?"
"I don't mind either"
"Okie, then you can shift to that cubicle" said the IT ops guy pointing towards the window.

I collected my things and peeped into the place that was just shown to me. My eyes widened... it is a big cubicle just next to the window! Such is usually given to managers, remember! I wondered what it feels like to be a manager... sit in that biiig cube, absolutely undisturbed by cube-mates... and a really really long table to have all your papers and stuff strewn all over... I just sat closing my eyes and wearing a big wide smile! Life, I love you for such pamper!!

Quick blindness..

Here's a post after long... may be a filler kind, but feels so good to me afterall!

I could'nt believe yet that I dint have a minute for myself all this while! Oh, life sometimes decides to take you for a vacation from yourself... lifting you off the ground, tossing plans and activities at you, making people run around you and soon you are blinded momentorily by the mere pace of it! You get this done, get that fixed, go here, reach there, find people, run around, finish things... loads of work done but no time to feel all of it. But that was fun too, I mean, the change in pace.

And after this rollercoaster ride, when you land and feel the firmness of time... tasting the flow, slow and steady... it feels really........ phew!!!
