Song #5 Five Songs and Heartache

-

For all your love and kind words
That I never could reciprocate
All I give
Is five songs and heartache

Two weirdass poems,
With ink bleeding on my skin
You gave me all of yourself
I couldn't even let you in

For all you gave, I took and took
Yet when it's your soul at stake
I drink
And I give you five songs and heartache

The shades of my pencil
Draw things in abstract
So when you look at the canvas
It ain't your face that looks back

The person you believe in
Exists but I'm not in state
To ever love
So take my songs and heartache.

When I dream while awake
These feelings hit me
I never told you about them
Because they don't belong to me

And all the words that I wrote
Made me tired and now it's late
So before i forget
I write the final song with more heartache

If nobody remembers you, do you even exist?  Memory is a fragile thing. You might remember a traumatic event from decades ago but forget what your best friend in high school looked like. But how would one live in a world, where everyone you met forgot you the second you were out of their line of sight. Book: The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue puts an interesting twist to the phrase “Out of Sight, out of Mind.” The book sets the mood for a country-girl who wishes to explore the world but is limited by the narrow-mindedness of her family and society. Life for young Addie, if she obeyed the existing norms would end with her getting married, having a kid and “being settled.” But such a life, she feels would dim the spark in her, and would such a life really be worth living? A life that she didn’t chose for herself? She makes a deal with the devil, trading her soul for immortality – a healthy, long life for as long as she wants it. Unfortunate for her,...

The Man Behind the Camera- Jammu's first Pulitzer Prize Winner Channi Anand

You don’t expect a Pulitzer Prize winner to walk you to the door and wait till you have left the sight on a day which is supposed to be HIS ‘big day’. But that is exactly what Channi Anand does and that is exactly what Jammu’s hospitality is all about. He welcomes all the love and appreciation that comes his way while ignoring the feeble attempts to overshadow this victory through means of regionalist hegemony. “It’s a matter of prestige for all of Jammu and Kashmir. This award is for all the journalists working here,” he says as his family makes all attempts possible to make him look camera-worthy. Usually the one behind the camera, he was shy to speak up about his journey. He is used to letting his photographs do the talking and while receiving the most prestigious awards for journalism was a dream-come-true, he had little to say about how all the events unfolded.   “The award ceremony began at 12 at night and I was awake till 3 am. As soon as my name was announced, I ...
