Casio SK-1

-

When I was about 6 years old, my parents got me a small keyboard! The Casio SK1. This had a lot of buttons in it. This is where I discovered music. Back then when my friends played with toy cars and dolls, I played with this keyboard. I was not sent for lessons, but I was allowed to experiment and explore the sounds. This being a sampler keyboard allowed us to record our own voice or any sound and sample them. I took a lot of time exploring this. 

The keyboard also had Mozart’s Toy Symphony as its demo. Back then I didn’t know what the tune was, or who the composer was. I had no option but to listen to the same track over and over again. I discovered harmony, rhythm, selective listening! This keyboard lasted through the years until I was about 13 years and it just stopped working.

Leg > Bike

 I met with an accident today! To save my new bike I used my leg to cushion its fall! I have a crack on my middle toe bone! I had gone to Saptagiri hospital initially, the first doctor who operated on me was a student, he was learning to stitch on my leg. During the stitch, I insisted that a real doctor do this. Then the next guy there tried adjusting my bone back over the stitch without knowing that it’s stitched. I was in soo much pain.  Then we decided to go to Baptist hospital, I got admitted and got my surgery done. Atleast I saved my bike.

It's late at night and neither one of us is sleeping I can't imagine living my life after you're gone Wondering why so many questions have no answers I keep on searching for the reason why we went wrong Where is our yesterday You and I could use it right now But if this is goodbye Just take my heart when you go I don't have the need for it anymore I'll always love you, but you're too hard to hold Just take my heart when you go Here we are about to take the final step now I just can't fool myself, I know there's no turning back Face to face it's been an endless conversation But when the love is gone you're left with nothing but talk I'd give my everything If only I could turn you around But if this is goodbye Just take my heart when you go I don't have the need for it anymore I'll always love you, but you're too hard to hold Just take my heart when you go

Snow!

I know it’s hot and humid, But why do I have cold feet?  Butterflies in my stomach,  I’m feeling all that again.  I know I’m in love.  She’s an artist,  Paints sceneries and teaches me the art too!  Organised, clarity in speech,  My “crush”  Then I noticed the ring,  There was perhaps a man in her life?  I secretly wished for someone, just like her.  Then it snowed, just on the inside, My heart felt heavy A song left my lips,  I prayed, I manifested!  Now I wait.
