I want to...

I want to write.

I don't know about what, who or where.

I think I know how, but I am tempted to doubt myself.

I am tempted to doubt myself quite a lot these days.

Doubt. Unfounded. Baseless. Uncertainty. Risk. Higher risk, higher returns.

I have been writing a lot about myself these days, but in restricted blocks, with word limits. With character limits.

It limits my character, so to say. I am forced to write what I wish people in positions of power would believe about me. Contrived. Made up. True, but in a way twisted. Something short of real life. Truth far from truth.

I want people to read. I don't know why. Perhaps I have a thing for fame. I just want to get up there on stage and play. Do my own thing. Grab someone from the crowd and pull them up, and not be one of the crowd. Definitely not the one next to the person who is pulled up on stage for that 15 seconds of fame.

Fame. Doesn't come easy. I feel that I am just giving myself away here. The kind of feeling which comes when you have nothing left to lose. I want to gain something. Profit. Loss. Futures. Options. Risk. Returns. Contrived. Made up. Forced...

I want to break free of the cycle. Is there a cycle? I don't know. I just want to break something. Shatter. Destroy.

I want superpowers. To break. To build something new where I break. Fame is power. I want fame. I want power.

I want to rise above it all. I want to just sit there and see. And play. Manipulate. Force. Peel truth away from truth. Make believe.

I want to, but I don't know how...

  • If you be my star
    I'll be your sky
    You can hide underneath me and come out at night
    When I turn jet black and you show off your light
    I live to let you shine
    I live to let you shine

    But you can skyrocket away from me
    And never come back if you find another galaxy
    Far from here with more room to fly
    Just leave me your stardust to remember you by

  • megalomaniacal instincts rizing to the forefront at IIM i can see. i knew these corporate seeds of petty pretend power this place would sow would take root in ur mind of manure and bloom into a tree of god delusion.

    what happened to the little gid i knew who would run in the pastel green fields carefree as a baby goat feasting on lsd laden trash.

    tis worrying indeed.

  • And what happened to the little Gid I knew who would run naked in the white sands on the beach, soaking in the salty wind, cackling in delight whenever the splashes of a wave whipped across his uncovered form, arms widespread like an elegant albatross without a care in the world.

    They do fuck up minds, don't they?

  • Got ur link from arunabh's blog. I created a blog 20 months, n just a week back i started posting.

    Moral of the three-liner: if i can get over it so can you.

    U dont have a thing for fame, but to be heard. Voice out. Kudos.
