What is meant by “missing you”? How grave is the word “miss”? The introspection is doing the round since I have read one of my buddies’ custom message on GTalk which read "She was the prettiest one, save a sad song for her. Benazir we will miss you."
Yeah, as you all know the charismatic leader has been assassinated yesterday in Rawalpindi. Sad enough, the poor lady appearing to be the meatiest part in this post is nothing but the catalyst to delve deep into the sea of “miss u”. Sorry Ms Bhutto, to “use” you even after you have left the mortal world. May your soul rest in peace. Amin!
me: lol
Godspeed: ??
me: benazir missed by an indian- be-nazir act indeed
Godspeed: beauty is not bound by boundaries and LOCs all this after im pro musharraf
me: there r 1000s of beauties like benazir she was intelligent. pretty. assassinated
Godspeed: but there aint 100s of Benazirs...
me: am shocked.thats all
Godspeed: am not ...she had the guts to live thru all the heats..and not chicken away...leaders are different...
me: but to be missed by a common Indian...balderdash
(meanwhile, mirza’s take on the issue of missing Miss Bhutto :
me: aaaargh she is dead. assassinated. am shocked. but y what more? she was never from us "She was the prettiest one, save a sad song for her. Benazir we will miss you." this is wat one of my pals has written on his custom msg……………………………………………………………………………mirza: ask the pal to go and fall in the deepest darkest part of hellbenazir is waiting thr)
Godspeed: ye its human too. the person u keep seeing on tv and read about in evry daily. suddenly u hear she is dead...sounds a little more realistic than falling in love with some spanish actor ........
me: that makes u miss her
Godspeed: unheard in the wide world of english speakers
me: dint know the profundity of ur immature self
Godspeed: ye .......sachin retires .....wont we miss himganguly dropped
me: sachin will be missed by all the cricket lovers
Godspeed: dont we miss him
me: benazir will be missed by common pakis. but us?dont be ridiculous
Godspeed: you are a very closed minded baffon expand your horizon...babe
me: u missed another "o"
Godspeed: how can u question whether i miss her or not...
me: coz of this"She was the prettiest one, save a sad song for her. Benazir we will miss you."think rationally
Godspeed: ye
me: she was definitely not ur every nite fancy but bernal is most of the time
Godspeed: if we can listen to songs like Candle in the wind ...
me: i enjoyed his presence on screen
Godspeed: thts ur problem
me: dont dare compare him to that corrupt woman
Godspeed: i used to find her charismatic....man ... u dont identify doesnt mean no one does..
me: even i find her charismatic, that doesnt mean we indians r goin to MISS her
Godspeed: To miss someone you cant have any conditions applied. wat corrupt...
me: yea wat corrupt
Godspeed: she is a courageous leader
me: even we r corrupt
Godspeed: ye evry one is

Godspeed: i dont have problems with your third world dreams
me: oh 3 rd world and pakistan is...in the 1st rung... wow
Godspeed: i never said wat is wat. just said third world
me: coz ?
Godspeed: pakistan is more in news than mexico, more powerful as a nation
me: mexico is third world state, yeah, coz of laden how honorable
Godspeed: a little more GDP than mexico
me: plz dont bring economics here
Godspeed: third world is economics
me: u may now say swiss r culturally richer than indians! i dont care
me: mexico= frida, maya, colors, tequila, life pakistan= veils, army rule, dark ages
Godspeed: it is ideally natural to identify with pakistanis than with mexicans on the other side of the world
me: how fascinating it is to hear that u second our neighbour
Godspeed: i have a lot of paki friends
me: so do i
Godspeed: and i talk to them over ph..wanna find out how much they are like us..
me: that doesn’t mean we will prefer the state to Mexico
Godspeed: i don wanna know bout Mexico...simple i kno lots of pakis
me: then dont compare it wid that al Qaeda land
Godspeed: i kno the situation there pakistan is not al Qaeda land
me: so u put pakistan ahead of mexico...how logical
Godspeed: then bengal is a naxal state
me: so?
Godspeed: any day my neighbours
me: bengal isnt run by some general
Godspeed: if pakistan plays any other country i support them.
ex general
get ur records rite
me: here u can ogle at women...poor paki men, all they can do is to be lost in the darkness of veils
Godspeed: thts misconception
me: oh ex.....i am so happy to know
Godspeed: pakistani majority is like us
its a few islamic radicals
me: that doesnt mean we will bring that country ahead of mexico
Godspeed: and benazir & nawaz sharif was trying power on the radical support
me: that doesnt permit u to insult my admiration for Bernal
Godspeed: the radicals dont want musharraf
musharraf is himself very western and liberal
me: plz i know the contemporary history of paki
Godspeed: insult...... vernal not interested with some culture
i donno these are as good as hebrew to me...
me: coz u r hardly interested in oder cultures
Godspeed: im not unrealistically obsessed like you are
im not

me: wet dreaming benazir is so rational....i never knew
Godspeed: i don have time for anything
wet dreaming.....it aint so .....even if
me: u do hav time to be a part of a brawl for winning a lost case
Godspeed: doesn’t matter win or lose
our neighbour thtts period
me: who cares
Godspeed: neighbour ********************** global culture *******be open to ideas and respect others likings
me: plz dont try to sell me ur ridiculous custom msg
Godspeed: tui jerokom 1000 reasons dite parbi y benaziri can also give 1000 reasons y carnal Bernal
me: carnal bernal...wow
i like it
Godspeed: so dont think u r rational ..........everyone is ...
me: ufff...u r going a diff way
i watch bernal's pix
i mean movies
benazir wasnt a part of my life
Godspeed: i like benazir as a courageous leader
me: uff abar shei kathau admire her, respect her. i understand
Godspeed: a female face in the radical islamic world
me: but how can u miss her when she played no part in ur life?
Godspeed: a leader who embraced death for her ppl
tho i feel musharraf is a better leader for pakistan
how can u say she hasnt
she taught me a lesson
nothing shud deter you from pursuing your goal
a small lesson but a lesson
me: and u will miss her
Godspeed: tht cud make my life different
me: i doubt if u really mean the word "miss"
Godspeed: miss simple word miss her in the newspapers miss the issues miss her on tv
me: mis(s)understand
Godspeed: miss about reading about her in the forthcoming elections
me: how praiseworthy
Godspeed: thts ur mistake with english
miss is a simple word
me: benazir is bestowing blessings n love on u from hell
Godspeed: fuck off
.........As soon as Godspeed uttered the four letter word, it was he who disappeared! Must be the supernatural power of Ms Bhutto…a modern, smart, intelligent lady with occidental outlook can hardly bear her ardent fan across the border using abusive language…that too to an innocent meek vulnerable soul.
After coming to learn about the heated episode:
mirza: u know in this heat, u missed out poor rawalpindi local(Mr. Shoaib Akhtar).
He def deserved a mention
me: hey i was thinking of him wen i heard of the venue
i will blog it but mirza honestly tell me if u dont fancy benazir, how can u miss her being an afghan cave dweller?
mirza: is that a trick question?
me: nah just reply that
mirza: you don’t miss someone no cause they are dictators or some hosh posh politician..just how close they were to you
me: exactly...thats wat my point is
how can u miss her? u may feel sorry for her.
but miss...thats a big word
mirza: anyways..probably all he needs is a quite thinking over and he will be through
me: and he is a senior copywriter!
mirza: well lets start with a resignation!

In quest of "Missing You"
Nostalgia
I woke up on a rain washed grey morn
To wish ‘bonjour tristesse’,
To my utter surprise, a yellow glow worm
Impatient in my bosom, crept on a fresh page of the diary.
Pink was I then, renée from a forgettable affair,
The glow worm reaped the nugget of the heart
And some interstellar words were born
Unknown, almost strangers to banal life.
Innumerable hours, numerous moments and some ineffaceable memoirs
Have passed since then;
Some words are still born, some words, sardonic and cynical.
The yellow is all sallow,
The pink remains, yet the source is different,
So does the page…although the worm has suddenly disappeared
In the twilight of the memory.
Love
She used to sit on that park bench
Under the purple colored cherry tree
And when the zephyrs smiled at her,
Her hair smelled of perfumed petals.
She used to have a special liking for saraband;
With her slow steps danced the edge of her red petticoat.
The winking champagne in her hand
Sent bevy of bubbles to kiss her virgin lips.
Necropolis is her new abode.
She has an ocassional liking for sarcophagus;
Who can tell salad days won't resurrect again?
Only to fall asleep by lullabies of the tears of the moon.
Reaching out where the streets have no name
Which is more important? Society or desire? Social norms or dark, deep desires that run in our veins- our veins transforming into blue-black cold desires….they pain us, they pain us a lot….yes!...but with the pain comes the pleasure…..the haunting pleasure, the indispensable pleasure…the indelible pleasure……pleasure that enamors our reveries….pleasure we crave for…yet… alas! We are mere puppets in the hands painted with dry sepia fluid, in the hands of the society adorned with necrophilia…..society, the cage…the cage that ensnares the desire-birds!....and we are the brokers, the losers in the market of desire-catchers…….
