unplugging useless nostalgies,threatening to spill.
Memories of a guy filled with joy and mischief,
stealing mangoes from lush orchards,
escaping school and fooling teachers,
watching movies in dingy old theatres,
cheating professionally in boring exams,
beating up those rowdy bugging bullies,
kissing my first date from behind a bush,
smacking other girls hard on the bottom.

The guy grows up,sees more of life,
fighting for space in suburban trains,
standing in queus waiting for jobs,
going to pubs,drinking the defeats,
tasting sins in one night stands,
coming back home at last,
a little straight,a lot more crooked.

The rain has stopped,I switch to the mundane present,
there comes the landlord,to collect his long due rent. [comments] => 5 [counter] => 184 [topic] => 44 [informant] => ravi [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Nostalgic )

Nostalgic rains

Topic: Nostalgic

Rain drops crowded around a dirty window sill,
unplugging useless nostalgies,threatening to spill.
Memories of a guy filled with joy and mischief,
stealing mangoes from lush orchards,
escaping school and fooling teachers,
watching movies in dingy old theatres,
cheating professionally in boring exams,
beating up those rowdy bugging bullies,
kissing my first date from behind a bush,
smacking other girls hard on the bottom.

The guy grows up,sees more of life,
fighting for space in suburban trains,
standing in queus waiting for jobs,
going to pubs,drinking the defeats,
tasting sins in one night stands,
coming back home at last,
a little straight,a lot more crooked.

The rain has stopped,I switch to the mundane present,
there comes the landlord,to collect his long due rent.
