I love nor hate
I pray nor wait
I sing but not
for someone I ought
I ought? Are you sure?
I look no more
To see if he’s coming
There’s no one there
Don’t you know?
Cant you see
As I see it?
There IS no one
There wont be him, that I’m sure of
What’s it you say?
There ought another, to be?
Oh yes? That’s what you feel?
Well, I know.
And this you should too.
Sit up, straight, you there
And listen, to what I say to you
I will not tell you words you’ve already heard
I will not chant sermons of life oh so sweetly
I tell you this, instead
Life, is too long
Too weird, not always a song
I wont preach I dare not teach
But live it all
As t’were the last
For most are, until they really are
The last, but then its too late
And you remain a lesson
Only for some other
Who wont, mightn’t and perhaps even shouldn’t, learn
For each his life has his own set of lessons
Live yours
To learn yours
Go on living
Keep showing up
Disheartened, yes
Desolate, yes
Alone, yes
Totally lost, yes
But keep living
Keep showing up
Keep going on
Until one fine day, you walk here no more
And walk elsewhere, where, we shall see

Hey ramadevi..wonder what made you write those lines..but there is so much to look forward to in life..whenever you are so depressed be grateful to god for all that u have..there are so many ppl who r not blessed with even 10% of what u have n dnt feel worth thanking god for..so enjoy n smile :)
Emotions are a strange thing, Priyanka. Sadly, when you're overcome with something, you barely ever can think of something else. I'm talking about the engulfing emotions. Everyone needs a let out. Some form of it, to ensure they don't turn suicidal or worse, murderous. People express feelings. I don't see why I'm not entitled to do the same, without feeling any less grateful to the almighty.
