If you are Dating an Artist

Oh you going to get yourself into a lot.. Trust me a whole lot!!

If you are dating an artist, be prepared to witness the invisible

Because we tend to read between the lines, exist in spaces between the spaces

We will be vocal about everything and subtle at it, all at once

The same way we pour our hearts out on the paper or canvas?

Yes the exact same way

We will tell you upfront sometimes, what we are up to

But also want you to read us in the silence, something we do before starting an artwork

If you are dating an artist, expect the unexpected

We will take you on the rollercoaster ride of your life

If you are really making an impact out there,

You will sometime feature in some of our arts

Coz most of the times, we are just all about ourselves

We have a whole parallel world that breathes inside us

If you are dating an artist, try not to fall into frames

Because we don’t follow that regime

We work on vibes, and not otherwise

You might never be able to decipher if it’s really dating

Or just friendship?? And you will end up super confused

So leave that bit to us

We will take it as it goes, and take it slow

If we had an instant connection, brownie points for you

If we didn’t, it can appear out of nowhere, one day when you are almost giving up

But we also tend to have switches to the internal parallel universe

And yes, trust me when I say we can totally switch it off out of the blue

So keep us engaged with attention and novelty and pure emotion shit

Because you never know, when that switch goes off for you

We will love it if you take interest in our orgasmic artwork,

If you don’t we will be silent and maybe slowly cut off

If you are dating an artist, trust me you are going to remember it for a long long time

Because you are in for the best of what you have managed so far

We will open up the layers one day at a time

And every time you meet us, you going to discover something divine

If you are dating an artist, it’s going to look quite simple and normal on the outside

So far you are pouring love, it’s not going to go away anywhere

But we like the limelight both on the art and ourselves

Things will get complex, don’t tell me later I didn’t beware!

We will demand and ask real hard

If you are dating an artist, THINK hard before you go far

Half Mesmerized

There are habits – old ones and the new ones, habits that we have lived with for years with and habits that we have recently acquired. Old ones become addictions and new ones become passion. Old ones are the ones we no more think about, they are like reflexive actions and the new ones, we long for them, we try to seek them – to get them into our systems.

Old habits – they are realized when they seem to be sneaking away , when one fine day we suddenly discover we are no more doing them or rather not doing them consciously , they are just happening – themselves- like an auto button!

New ones- we love them, we crave for them, we take conscious efforts for them and try to pull them – towards us and even if they are off the sight a second, we miss them – terribly!

So it becomes a war between addictions and passions! Addictions- something that we can’t live without and passions- something we don’t want to live without!

But passions might fade away if not nurtured, kept like a baby or even if not thought about for some time. Addictions have been there since forever. They are more like need of the body than the soul – after all we have tamed our bodies to be habitual of them. Passions- they rock our ecosystem – brains, hearts and souls. Most of the thinking goes in thinking about the passions. But if we consider the cumulative account of the thinking gone in both of them, addiction cannot be defeated by passion.

And then we are left midways, we are in a puddle of dilemma and have no idea which way to complete; we are almost mid ways both ways. We can’t leave addictions and are unable to leave the passion. We are left bedazzled, like a leg on one boat and the second on another – and deep down we know, this will certainly not take us anywhere. So basically, neither we enjoy our addictions anymore nor we can really do anything to fulfill the passions. 

So what do we do?

We enjoy only half the fun, we see only half the beauty and we feel only half the ecstasy.

We are left Half Mesmerized!

PS- Old habits die hard!
