Days of our Lives

To Firefly,

Darkness within stretches before and after,
Chasing light, a moth, to end up in ashes thereafter.
Silly it is to presume ashes was the endgame,
For only moth knows the euphoria of touching that flame.
Her warmth will make you fly high,
life would be, could be better than shire.
To ashes yet again, the kingdom fall,
with yet another hope of an empire.
not from ashes to ashes we live our lives,
from flame to flame are days of our lives.

-Moth-
The Moth

~Mekedatu

Seven are the sins you indulge into, not,
For misery and pain you tie with, a knot.
Seven are the heavens mortals seek to cross,
Lust, the only sin with a heaven across.
Insecure we are, us and them,
Top of my life I am, top of the helm.
Despise myself I often do,
For lust has blinded me with you.

The Best of Me

Off late I have got this acquired hobby of collecting (buying) music, which to think of it is a pretty cool hobby I feel :D
It was a day I decided to buy something by Police and the Sting. There were a few choices but everything was settled once I found the label "The very Best of Sting and the Police". Without second thought I bought the CD ( and totally loved every single song of it!).
Later on that evening I went through the Sting and Police collection I had ( Courtesy KGP lan).
Started listening to every track and realized not every song by the group was awesome. Infact not every song was even worth listening.
I felt very happy that they (Studios) come up with something like "The best of...." or "Gold collection" and stuff.
Little pondering and I felt how selfish I am really even in terms of music!
It takes immense creativity and efforts for these artists to come up with every piece of music they compose, and here were are gifted by the liberty to choose what according to us is 'the very best of..' their creativity!
Perhaps its the result of commercial mindset but now we get a chance to take only what we feel is good and leave out the not so good part. Never do we think that perhaps amongst those not so good parts, might be few of the most amazing emotional creations by the artists.
To think of it, I am not sure if I am thinking about a Music CD at all!
Its something you and I have experienced in real life. We always tend to take the better aspects of anyone's life. We force ourselves into believing that the person will never have a 'bad' face (phase) ever or atleast we don't care if it exists at all. We always buy the "The best of.. " part.
I wonder how many people do we meet in life who are ready to be with you in good times and bad. How many do we meet who actually buy the entire discography, how many do actually care to go beyond "The Best of Me" :-)

PS: As a start I avoid buying "The best of.. " types Audio CDs (except in cases where the PlanetM is devoid of any sensible album). And in real life... well I cant claim, but I feel I am among the 'discography' collectors :)
