Genuine Desires..


Today I unwrapped the box of life
Filled to the brim it was
With worldly gems and jewels
I thought I acquired it all
But my existence is yet so incomplete...
I desire for something more...something genuine
I yearn for a gentle stroke of love
In the times of unfaithful passions
Crave for a speck of truth
In the falsities of words and deeds
Searching for traces of faith
In the web of rationality and logic
Longing for a moment of peace
In the turbulence of minds n hearts
Get me a pure drop of tear
In the murky waters of emotions

Help me..
Time is running out !!!

I know how difficult it is to find that genuine concern in today's world.

But need not worry; friends are here to help. So cheer up and keep your focus on exams... just one week left. All the best!!!
