October Challenge

I need it as much as you want it
When I need you and you need me
We shall together do it together
Till then,
Don't misconstrue my silence
And force yourself on me!

Convenient way to cover up for one's actions

Seven

"You can do it tomorrow." said sloth with ease
"What is love without desire?" asked lust to tease
"If you are angry, let it out." said wrath with a frown
"You deserve more." stated greed with a moan
"You are different from the rest." said pride
"Why them and not me?" envy cried"
"You are never devoid of hunger." said gluttony
The sins leaving me in a state of mental agony

3 things I want to change about myself

1) To listen to the head and not the heart, the former speaks from experience, the latter wants adventure

Its high time women are perceived as they are with no preconceived notions and predetermined future!!!

3rd October

I witnessed lots of old parents abandoned by their children at a temple corridor. Their children must be really thick skinned for this gruesome act. The love that the parents have towards their children and the children have towards their parents cannot be compared. Parents accept the children as they are for their love is almost unconditional

Science of Love

For a layman, love is all a mystery
But do they know its a science?
With a solid foundation of chemistry
Between two diverse atoms in compliance

It defies the laws of physics, of gravity
For its all about falling out or falling in
Its a remedy for societal depravity
It's magnetism holding through thick and thin

Love is all biology, for it affects the nerves
Its a constant fight between the head and heart
A platter of variegated emotions that it serves
Its a process, enjoy it in whole or in parts!

PS: The challenge was to write a poem on love inspired by scientific concept or phenomenon

Sleep Paralysis

“Hold me close, hold me tight
Don’t hesitate, you will be all right”
The mumbling got closer and loud
I looked out for the voice in the crowd
“Let me go, set me free
You will be good without me”
Two different verses in a brief span of time
