Diary of a Bookworm

Sneaking over Holmes’ shoulder

I silently munch into words,

And crawl onto the book holder

Riding on the Chariot of Gods;

Defeating Jules Verne I go round the world safe and sound

In mere a week and reach the Baskerville’s hound.

The ‘Famous Five’ and ‘Secret Seven’ make the best of my friend

Dozing off against Shakespeare I meet my day’s end.

But my Tuesdays are no usual as I spend my time with Morrie

And have my bit of lunch with Anne in the War’s red glory,

Then I board the Train to Pakistan

And peep into a Brief History of Time as I learn

The secrets of Narnia and its magic;

The tales of Oliver Twist makes me pale and sick.

The Diary of a Wimpy kid amuses me the most

As I spend my leisure on Monte Cristo’s coast.

I am a captive on a land

Of print on paper in my hand,

But do not be bothered, do not fear

‘coz I am a blissful captive here.

Perfect, Not Perfect

Behind closed doors when the curtain closes, Too many voices screaming through A few rooms extend to that of a million losses All they are obsessed with what was never true; Stumbling back falling in the globe of fake smiles Every bit so damn perfect ,never fails to leave cue, Expectations running ahead a million miles Leaving to deal with a state of Black and Blue! Falling back again ,pretending what we never saw Still making alive through thick and thin Invisible scratches on the pale skin, they like to draw Hiding away from the world, away in the ripped jean. Perfect ,ever been so damn perfect Now it's scary to be the odd one out; Just like the fortune cookies burned beyond baked Never gets old what the fuss is all 'bout! That distant world of constant criticism All they do is judge at the first sight Breaking up the bars of the good old prison Who ever returned unstained from such a fight? An unhappy generation with happy pictures Ashamed of a broken heart h...

Yes, I know it's all gone wrong Now I'm left with the broken songs; Instead of fighting all day long, Should have tried to make the sweet times more prolong! We are all tired of masking smiles My dreams look hazy hiding away Just like a three million more miles I still look away, sighing and lying it's 'kay! No longer an immature teen Expectations in my mind are too keen Wish there was no body to lean The fake moments are never really seen. Eighteen and two long years more, All I think 'bout in my dreams and nightmares Makes my head a bit too sore All of these resembling a miserable bunch of uncertain dares. Counting up the ticks on the to-do list I made Wish I could be skilled enough to get paid Even the hopeful words now seem like a shooting spade! And every time I feel like it's way too much said; Then I'm gushed out of the building of this old city Now I miss that awful evaluation or maybe Just a random pat on the back rather than pity Is it scary tha...
