I am so lonesome I could cry...


Tonight.. I am so lonesome I could cry...

I got two shocks today.. the first one was about a very close friend.. he is going through a very very tough time, everything that he built his life around is falling to pieces.. and no matter how much I want to comfort him and tell him not to worry.. to tell him that it will be ok.. I know there is nothing I can do and I don't have words to describe how frustrating that is..

I see him there, kneeling helpless
..in pain
I see his tears falling to the ground
..in vain
I see the demons attacking
..in packs
I see his blood spilling
..through cracks
I see his last breath wheeze out
..in defeat
I see him die
..at my feet
and like a statue I stand still
from my little safe bubble
watching the demons eat there fill
unseen tears fall blinded from my eyes
stopping at the invisible boundary
fate has built with my unheard sighs

the second was that my dad is leaving tomorrow for four months.It was so sudden.. I mean he told me today after dinner, and I just get to meet him for half an hour tomorrow and then he'll be gone :(
I'll miss him so much.. now I too need that party tomorrow to cheer me up :(
As Elvis Presley would have said..
I am so lonesome I could cry...

Cry kar le. You will feel better. I hope your friend also feels better knowing that he has someone who cares so much for him.

hmm .. at times a lot of things come rushing to you at the same time .. you friend, I would say might be ok with time, just keep by his side, you don't have to say it specifically he'll realise that and would be pleased with it .. and m sure that would help him too ..

daddy would be back soon too ;)

I hope you enjoyed the party .. however I would have wished to join the party but such was the fate that my bsnl got screwed last nite and my net isnt working till now .. i came to the lab to make the most of it .. but i guess its already over .. bt a grt idea n m sure people had grt fun ..

cheer up .. cheese

sometimes we encounter situations where thrz nothing we can do...
but we can always provide support...moral, emotional...
so just be thr for him and try to always motivate him...and make him face his demons with a smile...

This reminds me of a beautiful poem by Pablo Neruda. "Tonight I can write the most sad lines" or sumfin.

Aap fikar mat karo, sab thik hoga. Trust me, sab thik ho hi jata hai. :)
