Hear me out...Sing Along!


Words written are always better than words spoken...
I hate conversations and that's at least what i used to believe,
There's no point in sitting for hours, with goofy eyes, sipping coffee...
Unless we talk and not just speak!

And then there are these words unspoken,
So much that i need to say, i wish you could hear...
For hours i could just sit across the table in silence,
Say nothing at all, i could just look at you, i could smile with no reason...

The distant dream that you are for me...
And i still nurture hopes, and wait for you,
As i cross your path everyday, look around and sneak a glance...
In hope, maybe just maybe, someday you'd see me...
You'd hear those words, someday you'd listen!

So far away that you are from me...
But you've never been as close as you are now to me
And there's still no point in talks, just talks
Unless i tell you this, cross fingers and hope you believe

I know i like you, and i'm glad it is you...
'Coz had it not been you, these goofy eyes, these coffee mugs,
this staring at someone with people noticing...
would look downright stupid...it would look embarrassing!

And there's still no point in all of this,
It's just another So So song i sing...
A song i love, and hum all day...
In hopes you hear this unsung song, Hear me out, sing along! :)

Not So Long Ago...Oh, So Long Ago!



Some places, some faces, some stupid tv shows,
Remind me of you, and us, and more...
Not so long ago...Oh, so long ago!

Some movies, some songs, some walks down the road,
Take me back to the moments we had...
Not so long ago...Oh, so long ago!
Some distances, some journeys, some highs, some lows,
They bring me to my knees, wet cheeks, eyes closed

Some flaws, some fights, some love we couldn't show,
And i regret and can't forget, been a while, i know

Morning calls, Late night texts, busy schedules, heavy notes
All emotions rolled into one now when i miss you,
I know you're not around...though it's hard to let go

The reasons we went away for, are all but a reason anymore,
And when i wake up to the winter mornings, i still wake up to your shadows.
Yet i know you've been gone, gone long since i knew love, knew you...

Not so long ago...Oh, so long ago!

Of coffee, gloom and wait...


Staring through my window, as it rains through this summer night,
I think of things that i wait for ... through this night, through this  life.

Some small, some smaller, some distant, some closer,
Some i can touch, some i dream of... through the smiles, through the cries.

They say i look gloomy, as I sip my coffee, they say i look unlike me,
Maybe it's just one of those days... one of those days when i am me and no more i can be.

Life spelt with the letters that also make flies, flies away one day at a time,
I sit back and wait for the rain to start again... to cheer me up, to bring me to life.

Simple things that i wait for... simple things that i pray for... I wait for them to now bless me,
Through the darkness, gloom and the pain...I wait for a way to see the glow, the light that lights me.

For those moments and those songs... I wait for you and them and more.
Through the darkness, muddle and the rain... I wait for the coffee, the warmth and the smile...

The days of despair are here...days of sun and nights of rain...good days of life, though late... of coffee, gloom and wait!
