all in vain

By Rini -

 

I saw you in the clouds the other night,

You were a blurry image in my eyes

 

I’ve seen you though a thick fog

I followed you without a thought

 

You were leading me to nowhere

And I've got no place to stay

 

Is this what you’ve wanted me to do?

To make the grave mistake of being lured?

 

Is this how it’s supposed to end?

Or is the something from the past?

 

If I could talk to old me

I would not disturb the destiny

I would not be me

If I erased what made me, me

 

And what made me become the person I amur actions and the words you pierce me through

Has no definite answer, but I know you’re the wolf and I’m the lamb

 

I bled to the floor, into a puddle

Never expected this sadness, so sudden.

 

Well what is sadness, if not a surprise?

What is sadness if it doesn’t catch you off guard?

What is sadness if not a peak-a-boo?

What is sadness if not an uninvited visitor?

What is sadness if not..?

We cannot be sad if we already expect it.

 

If I could live my life again

I would make the same choice, all in vain.

 

With the memories of the future or the past

I would still choose to cross paths.

 

 

 

~The End~

 

This poem is a tribute to people I met during adverse situations. This is my way of saying, no matter how shitty the situation we were stuck in was, i'm glad we were stuck together.

 

Again, the poem, like all my poems, is open to your interpretation.

 

 

 

Yours lovingly,

Rini,

TDD- ten day diary

Ive said it 2 times already, February feels sooooooo fast.

2 months down, 10 more to go- for what? No idea. Time is relative, life is absurd.

Following absurdism to keep sane from now on.

completed my latest comfort show, Schitt's Creek and it is SOOOO good, i laughed so much, cried a lot more than i expected, the writing is just so good. it is one of those shows that knows how to end and when to end.

on a completely random note- how the fk is 'Grey's Anatomy' still going on. TWENTY THREE seasons for damn's sake. OHMYOGSH. that's a LOTT even in Indian serials standards.

stay safe guys.


Saw Jupiter today.

And moon is soooo bright.

 


Yes it was sooooo bright!!

 

Have a great march guys!!!!!!!!!

 

I love you, byeee <333

missing

By Rini -
   Missing things in the way I wanna go back and relive them T rail Of Thoughts- 39 Sto-Rini-27   The other day in work, (during break time- if anyone from my work is reading) my senior was playing video games. And I, who can’t keep her eyes to herself, was watching the game play. He was playing India free fire-something, not sure. That reminded me of the time when I used to play pubg with my brother back in 2020. I told my senior the story where when my brother and i were on a jeep in the game, I accidentally threw the gr4nede on us and killed us both in that round. (Idk why my brother was reluctant playing with me after that, smh)    Anyways, that story caught his attention and I asked him if he plays gta-vice city. That game has been in my home computer for as long as I can remember. I think I remember installing it but I’m not sure, memory’s fuzzy. I was getting excited and was about to ask him about a mission in the game and he goes, “I know what you’re tal...

maths is interesting

By Rini -
Trail Of Thoughts- 13 (the devil number indeed)     If you ever attended a maths class (trying to keep it extremely general), you may have noticed the alphabets come to play as you study higher.   One thing I noticed that was quite peculiar is that, the first few letters are considered to be constants and the last letters as variables. This made me think. How the humans are connected to maths and its beautiful language. Human life. The first few years of all humans are basically constant. They are all cute, adorable (and annoying). As life goes by, the humans change. They don’t stay constant anymore. As they say, change is the only constant, the humans change so much in the course of their life that at the end of it, they are variables. They change all the time.   Their values change according to the equation they are in. In the sense, the situation, place, and phase. People’s values change.   I learnt two things here. We can choose our own equation and consider...

the misery i dont despise

By Rini -
Sometimes I wish that I can just lay on my bed, cry about all my problems, right from the beginning like when my dad tricked me into eating my jalebi when I was like 3 to the unhappened future events like being on my deathbed with my husband on my side in the hospital bed weeping as I take my last breath. I like doing that.   The misery I don’t despise.   That feeling of melancholy that brings me closer to the box I filled with emotions and shut close could be days ago, or even years in the past. That feeling of being wrapped around with a warm heavy blanket even on a sunny day with fan on full speed and AC on blast.   Sometimes I wish to take comfort in the sadness that washes over me due to a tiny conflict.     I wish to be covered with dark grey clouds ready to storm all over my mind.   I wish to stay in a dark blue walled hotel room, with paintings of pretty little flowers not yet ready to bloom, with waterfalls, not so glory when lo...

parasite

By Rini -
  I think I’m a parasite I’d be good at everything you want me to be   If I try my level best I’d be able to accomplish   But what do I really want to be doing? What do I want to be, truly speaking?   If I try, I can do it But do I really wanna do it What if I don’t like it After I complete it? What if my life in this Would be favourless ? What if I try my best Just for it to be hated By me in the future? And the future’s so near.   If I try, I’ll be who you want me to be But what if it’s not what I want   What if I don’t need a stable bridge What if I’m truly adventurous What if I want to have fun?   Sitting behind a desk Typing jumbled letters With more jumbled ones What if this is what I want?   Behind the screen With slow music feels With an half eaten chocolate And friends few texts away With pens all around the table And half eaten snacks beside ‘em And opened te...

an umbrella

By Rini -
Trail Of Thoughts- 12 Its rainy season and it’s only fair to use an umbrella now. I carry my umbrella everywhere in case it starts pouring, hard. But sometimes I want to carry it even if the forecast shows clear skies for hours; in fact, I want to use it even during the ‘clear skies’.   Why, you ask. Number of reasons crossed my mind and stayed above like a cloud ready to p1ss. I’ll tell you why.   Umbrellas help me. They help me hide from people I don’t wanna talk or look at. Yes, yes, im an extrovert but sometimes I need some alone time as well, some time to reflect on myself. for e.g., realize how rude I was to a student, how I could’ve offended someone with a ‘funny’ joke, how I could’ve just kept my mouth shut at some point, how I could’ve just walked out but decided to stay and watch the disaster unfold itself- you get it.   It’s more like im exhausted than being defensive.   It’s like an artificial block from people. I can lower the umbrella, as the saying goe...
