a sunday night,
lone and bright
with the moonlight,
taking me back to that flight
I sensing a fright,
& you, being my knight!
i felt right,
with you in my sight:)
everything felt alright,
but every delight,
turned into a fight,
& nothing could hold us tight!

-

~ thank you!

~ what for?

~ for the way I feel around you!

~ huh? (blinks) I did nothing!!

~ Oh you did!
For the way you pulled me back,
when the waves on the shore went high.
For the way you let me lean against your shoulder
finding support when I was getting pulled by the wet sand.
For the way you carefully held me close,
while walking around the crowded beach.
For the way you slightly tucked the strand of my hair
that irritated my face while eating bhutta.

I would have a 100 drafts,
But those incomplete pieces,
Sometimes feel complete.
Complete like unrequited love,
Complete like a half played tune,
Complete like an unread letter,
Complete like an unfinished piece of art,
Yet gracefully beautiful to exist!

-

I wrote for days & months,
To realise that I'd never quit writing!
Though the heart breaks,
& the body aches,
I have nothing left,
But an unexpected excitement,
Of writing more and more each day!

Just like that, I landed on the "Stationary" section of a departmental store.
And when I tried diverting my attention, something struck my eye that led me
picking up the Mikado ink eraser.
I could not think of anything but how much easier it was all these years,
that an eraser could help us correct our mistakes as a kid.
But now, as an Adult,
this stage does not come with a user manual
alas an eraser to clean out all our mistakes.

In the end, I left the store wondering the mistakes in choices,
in decisions and even words that I might have made, said and done.

But for a fact I now know,
the more mistakes I'd make,
the more that I'd have the opportunity to learn on!!

I knew life worked on different plans,
But little did i know that every journey was a new adventure!

I knew there were surprises all along,
But little did i know, i was meant to suffer!

I knew things would change,
But little did i know, I would always crave for some memories!

I knew growing up would never be same,
But little did i know, i would always want to go back in time.

I just knew it all along:)

I try :)

I never realised that adulting came as a whole bunch of joy, worries and responsibilities. Today when I try taking out sometime for myself from the schedule that I have, it gets hard.
Hard to understand on whats happening. I feel silence all around, but there's a battle on the inside. There's no destruction on the outside, but there's fire and war of emotions that flow like lava and bleed like blood. It's painful, yet adulting is beautiful!!
