an almanac of despair (and hope perhaps)

A 'not in this lifetime' list (conversely wishlist for the next one): 

No one to hate

Another chance to be young

A pleasant place to call my own

A little less naivety

A lot more luck

Smaller nights

A warm breath on my eyelids

A familiar smell 

A little something called hope

Some wisdom

A little less emptiness

No reason to cry

An easy way to die

A kiss

A true smile maybe

Some one to love

A touch perhaps

A way to escape the life

A road that goes off the cliff

No fear of the abyss within

A reason to live

A calling to fill the void

No need for pretences

A way to say what ails this heart

A little less anger to bear

No would have been's to think of

Someone to listen to

A second chance maybe

A happy place to run to

A God who would listen

A little peace maybe


Ek Sach

 Hum apne aap se bhi chup ke rote hain
