![[250] Changing Life, One Haircut At A Time](https://i2.wp.com/rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/screenshot-2019-06-24-at-11.28.59-pm.png?fit=720%2C258&ssl=1)
Mountains with bad haircuts tower above the shiny eyes of the city Shy, they hide themselves under the white blanket of clouds The cities pull the blanket off only forcing the mountain to push the clouds to rain in anger over the city This push and pull becomes old The mountain wear white wigs now [...]

Today the world woke up looking a little forgetful The sun didn’t feel as vengeful The newspapers had empty pages The air didn’t suffocate living Was it because we all remembered our dreams today?

The broken sky and its false promises of respite that some call rain while some wait for it to be called a storm A diversion from the tedious blue that only helps harshness to brittle our sheltered bones It breaks my little heart to acknowledge the void of you I was alright till now I [...]

Personalities mixing up to cause rainbows in a storm I touch one colour to really want another Never understanding a disguise entirely I borrow another to just carry on looking up The afterglow of constellations in your eyes carry themselves into my emotional identity I feel half of what you felt Half of what there [...]

Last day of college Stirring emotions inside; pouring rain outside Awareness of where we've come with a melancholic smile Thinking about how we've arrived here; why is melancholy right here? We're witnessing the birth of nostalgia Heaviness moves with us now Shoulders drooped a little Weary eyes looking at our feet We feel removed from [...]

The fear starts with me turning into a manifestation of grief It grows into the zeitgeist of the decade electing puppets that know how to let it serve them The panic starts with me turning into a pilgrim of atheists who journey towards confusion which becomes a weapon for the headstrong mob The trust starts [...]

I'm a believer in anything but me In need for some time out of my mind Seeing sullen shadows even when it's dark How much can I fight for so long with so little time left by my side? Denigration or adulation My self-worth is pulled to both extremes The audience claps away the little [...]

We are a blank slate generation with electric appetite for honesty Self conscious insecurity Extroverted brutality We come with no baggage of history only a disconnect with reality Imagination is stretched afar We wish we were born in a different age To breathe life into our sweet nothings We wish you were born in a [...]

Grab on to something so you don't disappear This is the ride of the lifetime are you living with your fears? We make up our minds too many times only to live through the night and wake up in a different time Block all your thoughts forget the revolution forget mankind and living for the [...]
![[240] The Man Who Was Always Right](https://i1.wp.com/rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/img_1725.jpg?fit=720%2C405&ssl=1)
There was a man who was always right He closed his eyes to see the world in its entirety He breathed in darkness so reality could never disturb him And it never did. There was an open field in front of him but he sat on his spot unfazed His zen head cut through the [...]
