Anger and bitterness no recollection of my arrival here Almost forgetting the summit when I’m diving down to the ground Power corrupts the feet of a prophet The halo is a chain that makes them levitate Success only increases the distance from the making of it all, it’s just the bracing of the fall The…

Dancing to the tunes of your moods forgetting rational thought as you embrace the emotion and its wave but you can’t ride in a flow state Everyone else mirrors an unreality and you feel out of sync This is not what’s happening is a frequent statement to think but all that’s happening is all they…

The passing of my sleep signal a doom of my dreams where I watch all that I think I needed linking it with the edge of reality Of lost paths, I could have taken to happiness Of the ways, that I could not fear less It arrives to me like a bohemian sensation Light in…

[266] 42.
![[266] 42.](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/0dc44-266.jpg)
Naturally, we’re all filled with self-doubt in every waking moment. A feeling that normally stays dormant till we’re faced with the mountain of expectations. Either from us or from others.

[202] The Performance of an Artist
![[202] The Performance of an Artist](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/img_9713.jpg)
Nothing satisfies an artist. We are creatures who’ve got self-doubt running in our veins. Everywhere we go we remind ourselves of our inadequacy to be better/best. We hold our failures on a pedestal rather than letting our victories dance around our mind. Even to call ourselves artist only springs up an emotion of cringe in us. The myth…

We are told that “don’t upset the system” “don’t be a rebel and lose your mind”. The reason? The functioning of the system is crucial for miscreants to survive. To not politicise art is just another way of submitting to the pressure of not being seen as a rebel. As the word, ‘rebel’ has a…

The sky waves in its colourful intensity I struggle to intensify the thoughts in my head to write them like they used to before to get my mind talking to my fingers The lies that used to come so easily now hide behind the truth of incapability Memorable performances for the crowd is a rarity as…

Dreams of shooting stars because I’m fearful of acting on my own dreams A trip to the mountains A life out of time created out of a vacuum is what exists in my mind An escapist idea it is to run away from the reality or maybe this reality we talk of is just the…

[127] Life: A Parody
![[127] Life: A Parody](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/whirlwind-lovers.jpg)
Aren’t we all just parodies of our true selves? Trying to feign reality but only becoming an amusement in return.
