From a young girl to being a mother,

Of sleepless nights and loud tantrums,
Of early morning prayers and school shenanigans,
Of afternoon lunches,

Of evening walks and sumptuous dinners,
Of midnight cravings and late night gossips,

You have made yourself rock solid!

-

Of memories we made,
Of experiences we shared,
"I love you!", my heart still beats,
How do I make it understand?
There's no more of us together,
You have moved "to-get-her"!

-

My bed filled with many of them,
I wake up with an expectation,
An expectation that this is a reality,
Alas, it's just a dream,
Turned into a nightmare!

-

The most cliche thing ever,
You were the best thing...
...that has happened to me!

However, I realized only now,
The 'best' jewel has been locked already!

How I wish I had stolen it earlier?

-

... your thoughts have crossed mine...
Of morning calls to monthly texts,
Of evening walks to unanswered good-byes,
Of Sunday brunches to silent weekends,
Of birthday surprises to oh-no-I-forgot!

When did we change so much, I wonder?

-

...a six year old with curly short hair,
Smiling with pure joy and happiness,
Humming on the tunes of mynah,
Jumping in the park fearlessly,
Curiously discovering new things,
Fading into the blues,

Wonder where she is now?

-

...let go off the load,
And get on the road,
Into the wilderness...
For all you know,
Better things are about to flow...

-

Vicious Circle of life -

Stranger.
Friend.
Best Friend.
Boyfriend.
Friend.
Stranger.

-

Oh thy beloved,

YOU cripple my mind,

I wonder when you'd realize,

I am right beside you!

-

... thoughts of you
never cease to amaze me,

Them cold winters,
Sleepy conversations,
Tight virtual hugs,
Endless tantrums,

Am I living a dream?
