Not all questions have answers.
Not all answers need questions.
There used to be a dark night once, that extended for several sun-lit days and moon-lit nights. It bore but one question, and no answers, but the darkness of the night was such that it soaked every inch of space and time in a way that all words, inter alia, choked to death. The unanswered question still looms large, and will, until it devours itself in its own quest and avarice.
There was one more night, though not so dark and not so stifling, where shadows talked in each others' embrace. And in between the spaces of the interlocked fingers lived an answer, of a question that had never been asked.
Then, somehow, the two nights met each other at an eventful moment, and annihilated all words, spoken or unspoken. The annihilation was almost total, and all that remains is a mini black hole that sits at the corner of my eye disguised as the Kajal....

OMG ! i seem to have begun a habit of being first to comment !
Excellently written, dunno if it is fiction or otherwise, but the emotions are beautifully describe so as to inscribe them into the mind's eye of the reader.
I do not know of what you are speaking, but it appears that after a long time you've written this way.
Beautifully said :-)
Abstract and concise, yet leaving one with unrest and questions.
free to be interpreted, it conjures up magic, and yes no one really understands magic, just like Kajal, elusive, yet present, subtle, yet prominent, dark, yet highlighting :-)
take care

Thanx sweetie...this is just like a tiny partcle that would sta with kajal onto the reader's mind's eye, hopefully that is!

Yes, it's been quite some time.

Well, this comment is way more "beautifully said" than the post, and perhaps undeservedly so.
Thanx anyway:)
It's not a thought of preponderant death that consternates us, even after being acquiesce to the fact 'death is a irrevocability ', but the unapprehended-ness of death that petrifies the intestines out of our preconditioned body and brain, and I believe death like life is a habit, and a hereditary one.
It would be unfair to judge this post.Emotions should not be analysed and somethings are better left unsaid and concealed.
good abstract writing...
keep writing more stuffs like that..
Mainey to itni padhai kar li hai ki mujhey beta annhilation aur pair production hi yaad aaye tumharey post sey,vaisey gist kya thee?
good artistic work thoughh,i must say.
Doesn't this mean that every question meets its answer, in the end, somehow? And yeah, why should someone be so abstract? Couldnt things be said in a simpler way? I dont know, just asking
[no_adjectives_plz]
I think this post was a rare ocassion when i was not directly addressing life and death as such, hence this comment is slightly unexpected but I still understand and agree with the point made. Thanx you.
Btw, Varun, are you taking English classes for gRE or smthng?

It's just a inconsequential piece of writing c'mon, and like most literature, talks of emotions.
Critics wshd shut shop if the listen to you!:P

lolz
Well you better concentrate on those only, ur exam must be around na!
Gist fir kabhi samjhaoongi!;)

Precisely. Every question does meet its answer someday, when whether we realise that or not is a different matter.
The irony is that a lot is lost when those answers are reached, or when the wandering answer meets the purpose of its existence.
Yes it's fairly vague, but that's a lot because of the mood I wrote it in, and those are the times when I like gettign slightly symbolic because then I want not everybody to understand..only those who care to eread carefully enough because those are the people who'd give a thought to a matter that I think deserves a thought. Those who think it's inconsequential may not read it at all because it sounds so abstract that it makes no sense.
Another thing is it that I never intend to give a moral science lecture, mainly because I'm nobody to give a moral science lecture, and anyway all this is not something I logically state and somebody reads pointwse and understands.
So I only opine, nly for myself, and in my complicated terms.
I hope that answers your query!
m not one of those who understand nething & evrything .. and i dont hav a clue here .. can u throw some lite plzzz ..
We don't have to address life and death coz we three are always on parity with modules solicitously juxtaposed to each other, which allows aura of surprise to emanate from my being as regards with your unexpecting exclaims, anyways . . .
And to your last line(or question) to me, I accept evrything you offer with rapture, even if that is sarcasm.
Please take care.
Another query : why and how do you think so much and so clearly at such a young age. I probably used to think a lot too, even though I used to be very unclear and confused in my thoughts. Wish I had discovered blogging earlier, because writing all your thoughts in a diary seemed a waste of time.
first time m goin to comment here
hmmmmm amazing
u r damn gud
oh god how such thoughts come in ur mind yar
just keep it up :))))))
