PRISON!!


Prison!!

I don’t know where my life’s heading,
There’s no path ahead, no hope,
Only an ocean full of solitude and darkness.
For all the sins that I’ve committed,
There’s no cure, no repair.
Sitting in a six by six room,
As, clutching my forehead, I sit,
I feel I’ve let down my own self.
But there’s no point feeling guilty now,
There’s no use begging for mercy now.
I have to stay here for life,
Yeah, there’s no place worse than prison….

I am really feeling homesick now,
I am missing my wife and daughter,
Why did I, in the first place, steal and slaughter,
Men, women and innocent children.
I have, in the past, been tergiversate,
That resulted in plenty of enemies and foes,
To add to my list of existing woes.
It has left me tattered and devastated,
So I had to take these extreme steps.
But there’s no point feeling guilty now,
There’s no use begging for mercy now.
I have to stay here for life,
Yeah, there’s no place worse than prison….

Sometimes I imagine my old buddies,
Waiting for me outside the premises.
They’ll forgive me, I know.
I am missing my group, I really am.
I wish I had one last chance,
To chat with them; To laugh with them.
Just for a moment, a second,
But one that I’ll never forget.
But there’s no point feeling guilty now,
There’s no use begging for my release now.
I have to stay here for life,
Yeah, there’s no place worse than prison….

My inmates here are brutal dogs,
Savage mongrels they really are.
Life of celibacy has made them really frustrated,
And some of them have even turned gay.
They like expressing their frustration,
On a new inmate like me.
I can see their sadistic pleasure,
As they continue to exploit and abuse guys like me.
I should have tried to entrench myself,
In a stable job; a career.
It would have surely prevented my life,
From ending in such a trench.
But there’s no point repenting now,
There’s no use begging for mercy now.
I have to stay here for life,
Yeah, there’s no place worse than prison….

I don’t know where my life’s heading,
There’s no path ahead, no hope,
Only an ocean full of solitude and darkness.
Daily, for more than an hour,
We have to stay queued,
For obtaining just a morsel of food,
That is both inedible and crude.
Countless swears that I must have muttered under my breath,
Only thing that would relieve me from this pain is death.
I am missing every pleasant memory,
That is soon going to be a part of history.
Sins of the past continue to haunt me,
My life continues to taunt me.
My misery has become an integral part of me,
But deep inside, I still hope to be free.
There’s no point feeling guilty now,
There’s no use hoping for my release now.
I have to stay here for life,
Yeah, there’s no place worse than prison….

I remember a day of the past, When you held my little finger, Took me to school the very first day. I was crying, terribly upset, Coz i didn't want to stay away from you.

You have enriched my life!! In an era where happy marriages are an illusion, In you I see love so untainted, so true, It is pleasantly surprising and gladdening, And I feel so lucky to spend my life with you, The twinkle in your eyes; the caring look on your face, I see, as I open my eyes every morning, I feel your soft hands gently stroking my forehead, The moment is beyond doubt, refreshing, I feel excited while coming back from work, Knowing someone’s eagerly waiting for me, And as we sit and share the day’s happenings, All my worries vanish; I feel happy and free, Sweetheart, let me hold you for a moment, And let all the memories flow, From the first time we met, the first time we kissed, To the birth of our children, and seeing them grow, The times spent with you have been priceless, And I can’t imagine living even a day without you, Dear, your smile mesmerizes me even now, I can spend my whole life merely gazing at you.

DRAVID: THE UNSUNG HERO!!

Dravid: The unsung hero!! An epitome of perseverance was he, A man of resolve; like a wall he stood, Weathering every belligerent storm with ease, Every single time, without an interlude, An epitome of ethics, an ideal sportsman was he, He made us believe, cricket’s still a gentleman’s game, For rarely he shouted, cursed or resorted to unfair means, Never did we see him bring our country’s reputation to shame, An epitome of selflessness was he, A man who would have walked on fire for his team, He did everything he was asked to do; and more, He would die saving someone else’s life, it does seem, An epitome of humility, a true altruist was he, For never in his life was he seen flaunting his records, Preferring instead to be a shadow, an unsung hero, A man who served; without expecting rewards, An epitome of loyalty was he, Like a mother loves her child since birth, Every step he took was in the interest of the country, Yet who never r...
