A Heart In The Sand

a heart in the sand
swallowed by the tide
is the story of us
a once upon a time
thoughts carved in stone
in a place of innocence
casually on the surface
as if time had no relevance
the horizon that separates
sky and earth two opposite pages
a sudden drop heavy like a bomb
a blink that turned a thousand ages
what have i become today

Obsessing Odette

Once in a while, an actress will come along and take my breath away. With her eyes and her smile, I’m like a fool always waiting for more of her on the screen.
If I were to recall, the first ever actress that got to me was when I was about 11 or 12. And that [...]

I couldn’t ask for more from the skies as it’s nothing better than the summer temperature we usually have here, like the one just last week which was just unbearable. Stepping out of the [...]

Hobby, Security, Happiness

I went for an interview today at a semi-government corporate body that really pays well. Thought I didn’t make the cut as it’s been more than a month since submission.
If I do get it, this may very well be what I will settle with for the rest of my career life, or at least it [...]
