LOVE IS MY FAVORITE MISTAKE


How do you keep a heart from breaking?
What can you really do?
How can I possibly stop myself
from falling in love with you?



I don't want to cut all ties
that would make the pain so much worse
why does this thing called love
feel like the worlds greatest curse?

 


It hurts me more than words can say
but I can't get enough
I think I'm more than a little addicted
and I guess that's just too tough.


 
I'm trying a little too hard
just to get along and get by
and I'm crying a little too much
while ending everything with a sigh.



because constantly thinking of you
makes me all the more depressed
because of all of the love that I hold
for you must be suppressed.



and I'm ready to give up and quit
but I think that I will take
my chances with this thing called love
my favorite mistake.



Hope i don't repeat this mistake again - sahiliiti@n

FLUCTUATING DREAMS




A year and a half has passed since I have cleared the most reputated exam of India. Now after seeing much, though not complete of this world things have changed a lot and that change is not automatic and not something that I am loving. I am used to it or in better words addicted to these like the bad habits. Or are these really bad habits?? Things were different when I was in my home with my family. I can’t even say that not being with my family has changed me a lot as I didn’t even change slightly in a complete year away from them in kota where I had worst time of my life. There in Kota was only one lifeline, my dreams about clearing jee which kept me unchanged since so long. I never even wondered about my unchanged nature, physically, socially and mentally before but nowadays I am astonished or rather say puzzled about my unbelievable “no change” there and I am founding it impossible somehow. Maybe it is because nowadays things are very different, scary and easy “to change” or because I have changed in the worst possible way.
I know it is very hard for you to think about a single thing I am talking about. But I am restrained. Restrained to write everything here, especially personal and so I can’t go straight. My dreams till 2008 were special and I always had true optimistic feelings towards them and always had proved myself. Maybe things were easy then. Standing among the best brains of India isn’t that easy and the best thing was my dreams never fluctuated. I never had second thought about my dreams.
But now, when I look at my condition, I found myself pathetic and alone. Now I am afraid of dreaming. I never wanted to be like this but still I am loving it. I am loving this change except something within me that is surprised by this change and that something is not only something to me. It has become everything. Confused?? Me too and that’s mah problem. Now i have multiple contradictory dreams which can’t be fulfilled hitherto m given many lives in my single human life. Whenever my solid mechanics proff taught me structural engineer or take building construction proff, teaching me estimation showing different different models with great enthusiasm, I dreamt myself in some big city of US as a head of some big building project. I felt so proud of becoming a civil engineer in future and that too from IITR. But the moment any programming book caught my sight, it makes me recall my dream of becoming a great programmer and hacker, working in Microsoft or Google. I have a strong desire to clear cat and study in IIMs. But at the same time I can’t even deny my dream to have my MS degree from some reputed foreign university after scoring high in GRE. But this is not the limit of my thoughts. I even sometimes think of going for IAS examination. Infact that is the most respectful field that an IITian can go for. In my every dream I find myself still every dream has a flaw and this stops me every time I think of it and the only flaw in any dream is other dream being superior that it only in some way. I wanna grab all. I wanna do the impossible. Truly I have changed a lot. I can’t even fix my dream. Then how they can possibly be true ever. Or maybe I am finding a reason not to choose any as I am fed up of my dreams or maybe I have started doubting on myself. And sometime I do feel that this is true. Why I have started feeling so weak and alone here? All I am becoming is someone which I never wanted to be, someone I never dreamt of. Life in 3rd semester has brought in me the drastic changes I never expected of. Why life always play such cheap games with me?? All I can do now is pray to god to give me the power of facing these challenges in my life, no matter how difficult these challenges are to me, I must be strong enough to walk on this path, whatever comes in my way, I must be confident of my principles and must not let my morale down.
