The trek and the girl ....

"Had been on a trek and met a girl". How small can a sentence get sometimes. Well, I was on a trek for about 10 days and met this girl and we became good friends. After climbing for about 7 hours one day, we stopped at a really beautiful camp site. Had penned down a few lines for her at a camp site while we(the entire group) sat around a candle sharing thoughts and experiences.

After a few days I travelled again to the city where she lived and the last 2 lines were added then.

In dark I sit ... in this lovely night....
Next to you ... by this candle light ...
Day dreaming ......wondering about happiness....
feeling good ... with the warmth of your togetherness...
I am tired ....but sleep isn't near ....
Just want to be .... with you ... here...
Want to know why I found you ... always next ....
Whenever I stopped ... to breathe .. or rest ....
I have heard your story .. and so is mine...
don't know .... if that's a sign ...
I have got answers to many questions ....
but there is one ....destiny has to answer ...
and now I travel to see you again ....
Let's see ... this brings happiness.. or pain again ....

A little befuddled philosophy of existence

who am I ....
what is my existence...
what is my identity ...
and where does it lie within me???

If you cut my hand .. I would say .. me and my hand ... if you cut both my hands .. I would say me and my hands ..... If you cut my legs .. I would say ... me and my legs ...if you cut my head ... what would I say .. me and my head or me and my body ??

where is my existence? is it in my head or in my heart ?
