I want a simple day
Not one filled with sunshine
But neither one thats clad in grey...
I want a serene sun down
Not one with melting hues
But neither one that besets darkness...
I want a silent night
Not one burning with passion
But neither one thats bereft in pain...
I want a piece of the sky
Not one with starry silvers
But neither one thats dipped in darkness...
I want a handful of earth
Not one with blossoms of nature
But neither one thats arid dry...
I want a gulp of the seas
Not one with a pearly bosom
But neither one thats a wild uproar...
I want a slice of happiness
Not one that lasts forever
But neither one that defines impermanance...
I want a bit of myself
Not one that knows not me
But neither one that is not you...
I want my share of sanity
Not one thats know and be all
But neither one thats devoid of the echo of insanity...

A dialog from Veer-Zaara struck me.. "Woh kehte hain ke main us jaisa nahi, fir kyun woh mujh jaise lagti hain"... I know there isn't any connection between the two lines.. But, thought of sharing it..
