I'm just like you

This One was written for Sushmita's painting (Still life-vegetables).

There is a pile of dishes lying in the kitchen sink
You've no idea of when it’s going to be clean
It’s like you’re running in a tight schedule
You’re busy and you’ve lots of things to do
But you don’t do them, not even a few

I’m just like you
A dog chasing its tail
I’m just like you
We can smile when we fail

Sight of your desk at work place makes you frown
You desire to have super powers to fly back home
It’s like the clock is stuck in the same place
Everything sounds like a cliché
You don’t like the way the world is on the weekdays

I’m just like you
Mine is a strange psyche
I’m just like you
I wish to do what I like

Many friends you went to school with are getting married
When your mother talks about wedlock it’s a little scary
It’s like your hair is becoming less dense
And the pointer in your bathroom scale is reaching the maximum
Some days you wonder whether you look older than your mum

I’m just like you
I wait for the horse and the cape
I’m just like you
I want my fairytale escape

Frankly my dear I don’t give a damn!

Wrote this based on conversations from "Gone with the Wind".Nothing special about this one, just made it on a monday morning :)

Are you the Belle of the county
or the sweet doll of the town?
Frankly my dear I don’t give a damn

Are you waiting for a knight with a shining armor?
Will you always look for someplace warmer?
Frankly my dear I don’t give a damn

Looking for compliments from every man?
Until death, will you not lose your charm?
Frankly my dear I don’t give a damn

Caring for me with heart and soul?
Swearing your love till end of the world?
Frankly my dear I don’t give a damn

Why don't they stay that way

Leaves, so green and young
why don't they stay that way
why do they turn brown
why do they wilt or fall away..

Pictures, so fresh n rosy
why don't they stay that way
why do they fade with time
why all the dust and grime

Streams, so cool and clear
why don't they stay that way
why do they get dirty
why do they have to go dry

Days that start happy
why don't they stay that way
why the arguments..the face-offs
why not more laughs...

Memories that curve up a smile
why don't they stay that way
make them be the same, all the while
do they have to go away...
