Miles to go before I sleep

Sometime the unpalatable nature of life bangs hard onto me. This unsavoury feel for life is a new development though. The feeling of finding -every- bit of -everything- around you so phony, so contradistinctive from what I thought the world should be like. Being into research these days, there is this phenomenon of 'contemplating' leeching me. Why do people fake? Why do relationships so dear to you begin to itch all of a sudden? Why do tend to restrict yourself to the same finite boundary inspite of yourself?

Whose woods these are I think I know.
His house is in the village, though;
He will not see me stopping here
To watch his woods fill up with snow.

My little horse must think it queer
To stop without a farmhouse near
Between the woods and frozen lake
The darkest evening of the year.

He gives his harness bells a shake
To ask if there's some mistake.
The only other sound's the sweep
Of easy wind and downy flake.

The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

- Robert Frost

May be I should not blame this phase of my life, I am just being extra freaky again. And another year comes and goes. Damn! :P Oh...and its worth a mention that being the winter solstice, today's night is gonna be a long one. But it will end, in the end.
