The Solitude Bandit

Being a single child
Isolation in life went wild
Slowly I evolved to love it
Today am a solitude bandit

To get that little time
I strive and whine
While its war at work
To-dos at home lurk

Company I surely need
But my space a bit more indeed
Loaded with overlapping tasks
I must adorn multiple masks

Lost am I in my own busy world
With people and thoughts distinctively blurred
Today loneliness is a myth
Meet me, the Solitude Bandit

PS. No this is not the poem I mentioned about in my last post . This one just popped out when a friend of mine wrote about wanting company....and I wrote "Here's my version of  not having ,then having and then wanting to not have any company. But I guess there needs to be a balance. While you need a 'with ppl' break I just need a 'without ppl' break :)

I am Happy today...

because.... Acha had his follow up with his doctor today and things are FINE. Yipeeeeeeee! He is doing good. A Big Relief. Yesterday I had a wonderful evening with friends ( U, S and B) at U's Golu. Achu also had a gala time with N and M. On the work front deadlines have no meaning since we are done with all the files that needed attention. Have to get the office ready for Pooja. Its exciting to plan and execute something otherthan work, at office. God is watching over me :) Ps. Like I said today is beautiful...I am relishing each moment ...I am grateful to alot of family and friends...for there is nothing more peaceful than having a hand to hold and a shoulder to lean :)   

The New Year

This is my first new year without my Acha. It doesn't feel very good. When you don't have that somebody who has been with you all your life It doesn't feel good at all I know I have to move ahead Try to get his dreams come true I know this year is going to be tuff but I count on a set of people who I know will be with me Above all Acha is still with me in a more powerful role With his principles embossed in my heart I move forward Cautiously but Courageously..... Ps.Thank God for all the support my mom and I are getting for the past weeks.....The support has given us strength we barely knew we had. 

Loneliness

Suddenly I feel all alone A shoulder I seek beside Though amidst a crowd Why do I feel deprived With uncertainties around me I seek just one defined One I can fall back on When the world acts blind Wonder which worldly tie is the most strongest and true For I have felt all the bonding But sadly confident of none So a materialistic life camouflaged with fake smiles and superficiality around This lone soul lives on............
