Vacuum

A window down this heart of smoke
shows lil' things unheard, unsaid..
Lil' things I never spoke
lie in the bottom of this pit of dread.

You can see my colours
all bright and happy
you never eye those duller shades
Oh no..they are wrapped within me
not on me
ribbons cutting through like slivers of blades.

I'm in a crowd
But,I stand alone
Inspite of all the laughter.
The wildly cackle
"Oh!I love your hair
and I even love the halter."


The world lays thus,
smothered with multi-layers,
with smiles sealed in pearly white..
A spirit of dust and flesh
of elegance and grace,
I stand Ms. Perfect at first sight.


Stained with the world
You can see this girl
turn into who she ain't
But wipe the stain,
discover the blurred truths..
the solemn trials of the worldly saint.

Tear me down
Rip my heart
explore this bleeding wreck of mine.

Dig down deep
and amidst the dirt
You'll find shiny diamonds in ruby mines.


I am Ms.Imperfection
I am not what I seem to be
Not merely made of flesh and bone
I have a heart, I have a soul.
Unlock me with the keys of innocence
& see, that within me, lies a world of my own...

The Second Chance

This was a song I wrote when I was 14..came across it while I was cleaning up my room..
I hope it doesn't sound as Naive to you as it does to me =D
The Second Chance
Sing me my favorite song
Show me my favorite dance
Take my heart along
& Give me another chance...

Make me laugh out again
Make me stare at you
with my big brown eyes..
Let's walk together in nobody's lane
and laugh so much until the laughter dies..




The rain falls down every second now..
A trickling sound on my windowpane
As I think about the times we've had..
A trip down the memory lane

We may not be together now
and things are not as they should be.
But I cannot forget you,love,
and I cannot stay, only with me.

I don't sing in the shower anymore
Nor can I write good songs as well..
The kiss,the touch,the mystical look..
we were in heaven and on our way to hell.

They might say,gal,get a life;move on..
Happens everyday, jus' go on with your song!

But I cannot forgive myself
for all the things I didn't do,
Cos' when I had a chance..I jus' didn't say
that I had always loved you.

I did not tell you then
Cos' I was so so naive
and now, when I've lost my second chance,
I'll follow you to your grave.

Big and a better Bang??



As the entire 'scientifically literate' world held it's breath, the universe has come to life again(or is atleast going to).


Finally, 200 Indian scientists embark on something the global world has decided to include them in.To me, it sounds like a factual remake of 'Angels and Demons' minus the religious part.




Half of us are drenched in anticipation and the other half are against this unnatural process. The others are just indifferent.


This is a moment where mankind is on the borderline of either something amazing or something equally amazingly destructive.Statiscally speaking, it's the largest man-made experiment and we're a part of it!!(I mean it's happening in our times)


2000 scientists,a $10-billion effort, 14 years!!Particle accelerators are a common concept in terms of nuclear physics..and the LHC(large hadron collider) went live this morning in the Alps along the French-Swiss border..


It stretches for about 27 km!Conducted by the CERN(a French acronym for the European Organisation for Nuclear Research),the tunnel, buried 100 metres underground, is lined with sensors and 1,600 superconducting magnets across eight sectors, which are held at an operating temperature of 271 degrees below zero — colder than outer space. The LHC accelerator, which is accurate to a nanosecond, will be used to slam particles into each other to try to recreate the conditions at the beginning of time — as in the Big Bang.




This experiment known as the 'holy grail of cosmic science' is a mecca for "major" religious &

scientific controversies all rolled into one.Will this lead to a recreation of the 'genesis era' or will it result in the genesis of a black monster?Can you even imagine that in a span of a nanosecond, without knowledge, we all might be sucked into the unknown and we might vanish from the face of the earth, and the earth from the face of the universe?Scary..The risk involved is a little too much but if fruitful, the results will make us as omnipotent as never before.As the particles smash together they will break apart into smaller, more fundamental components, giving physicists a fleeting chance to observe those particles, some of which have never been seen before :O

"Professor Taylor says the experiment's opponents are completely misguided in their stance.
''One of the things we are trying to do is create mini-black holes which scientifically would be a magnificent thing and tell us we don't live in three dimensions, but that we live in nine or 10 dimensions,'' Professor Taylor said.
''As soon as you say there is the possibility of creating black holes, you have people saying we are going to be swallowed up by black holes.
''That's where the furore has come and it's completely misguided.''
Professor Taylor said if today's experiment showed there were more than the three dimensions height, width and depth it could change the way we looked at life. One of the most anticipated products might be the elusive Higgs boson, or the God Particle, which could explain how other elementary particles acquired properties such as mass."

-Canberra Times

The God particle??One can imagine the possibilities it's discovery might create by the intensity of it's name itself.Phew..

They say that the collision of two protons gives rise to an amount of energy equal to that of two colliding mosquitoes...??


Google searches for the 'Big Bang' has two related topics..

1. Black holes(someone has commented "Is this really true?Can we all die tomorrow?".....Weird)

2.Big Crunch

For all those of you who don't know what this is, here is it's 'wikipediaic' definition:

In physical cosmology, the Big Crunch is one possible scenario for the ultimate fate of the universe, in which the metric expansion of space eventually reverses and the universe recollapses, ultimately ending as a black hole singularity.


It basically talks about the end while Big Bang talks about the beginning.

They say that "At the end, we start thinking about the beginning"..So is this the end??

Well..only time and technology will tell!
