PEER PRESSURE

WHY DO YOU EXPECT ME
TO DELIVER THE GOODS ON TIME
WHY DO YOU SAY ALWAYS
THAT I AM NOT GOING FINE

WHY DO YOU EXPECT IN THE VERY FIRST PLACE
WHY DO YOU DRIVE STUDENTS IN THE FILTHY RAT RACE
A SECOND IS PESTERED TO TRY FOR FIRST
A FIRST FOR EVEN MORE
A FOURTH OF WHAT’S THOSE THREE
A LAST FOR A DECENT SCORE…………….

IF ITS LOVE THAT BRINGS FORTH THIS
IF THE PAINFUL MIND
THEN WHY DO WE TAKE THE TROUBLE TO
MARK IT IN CASH AND KIND

HEY! YOU DON’T YOU KNOW THE EXPECTATION OF YOURS
ARE CAUSING MORE HARM THAN GOOD FOR SURE……

TENSION CREEPS INTO THE CHILD
AS THE DESIRE GOES HIGHER
INFLATION OFTEN CAUSES THE CHILD
TO ECOME A FLATTENED TYRE

DO NOT EXPECT DO NOT SHOW
JUST APPLAUD AND APPRECIATE
FOR THAT WHICH WILL COME OF GOOD
NOT IF YOU IRRITATE

IT’S NOT THE EXPECTATION THAT I HIT
BUT THE CONSEQUENCES FROM IT
THE TENSION PRESSURE THAT IT PUTS ON US
ALL BECAUSE OF YOUR STUPID FUSS……………..

But ask me to justify my love...   I wouldn't , not if I am slain..     Cause, I have seen it all, known it all...  Quick sand, is not just for the beaches...  It has drained life, breath, blood and love,  let alone petty riches..     Cause, I have seen it all, known it all, ti...

Untiled

It all started in Presidency College. The first kiss,  the first bout of anger,  the first getting wet in the rain. Shreya and Srijan loved what they had. They loved being in love,  cuddly, cosy and always into each other.  They were the sort,  who were outcasted from society due to their "coupletiness" . They existed in a world segregated from friends,  family. They were mesmerised by each other,  in a sense they started living in a virtual world that they created, until one day when Srijan went abroad. He realised the potential of being alone,  of creating for himself,  for the joy which he didn't know could come from sheer self indulgence. He realised the matters if the heart blunts the brain, cripples it,  makes it focus on things which need lesser attention. He realised that the relationship though beautiful was a hindrance.
