Mirages

Fool I was to misunderstand the mirages while madly searching for the lost pieces in this heated desert. In such harsh conditions, mind generally play games. Is this all in vain? Should I keep cursing what was brought by the time and eventually move on. Or should I stay, trying to collect and fixing the lost pieces with the blessed feeling I am left with. I have been breathing this feeling for long now and it has achieved its own peak and nadir at times. But it made me believe in miracles, flying high on thoughts and imagining a divine presence around. Hence, the faith on this feeling was unquestionable.

But today seemed to be the day when sun only comes out to humiliate you. Everything in this heat was burnt, feelings, relations and the long cherished trail of past, and all that was burnt into ashes never rose. Why would it be? It was no phoenix. I just wish it would, as beautiful and as eternal as one.

There was love

There was an urge for chocolate bets. A hurry in the morning to reach school little early. Those long hours of conversation with nothing special to talk about. A college life with a crush on the most beautiful girl in the world. Mobile became a necessity. A happiest day of my life. Those frequent furtive trips between the two cities. A flop movie, a first kiss, a red face and a shy downcast gaze. Collage letter and hand-made cards. "m engaged". Amazing friends and lovely parents. Dreams and smiles. Cute little quarrels. Obsession and passion. Craving for being each other's top most priority. Emotional distances. Trying harder to stick around. Heart shredding events. Smeared emotions. Surviving and staying alive. A love tale gone bad. But there was love.

It's about time we stopped being at a loss for words !

Devil May Cry

“She didn't understand that. "How can anyone be afraid of love?"
"How can they not?" His face was completely aghast. "When you love someone... truly love them, friend or lover, you lay your heart open to them. You give them a part of yourself that you give to no one else, and you let them inside a part of you that only they can hurt—you literally hand them the razor with a map of where to cut deepest and most painfully on your heart and soul. And when they do strike, it's crippling—like having your heart carved out. It leaves you naked and exposed, wondering what you did to make them want to hurt you so badly when all you did was love them. What is so wrong with you that no one can keep faith with you? That no one can love you? To have it happen once is bad enough... but to have it repeated? Who in their right mind would not be terrified of that?”

Moving On

To move on from a person might be hard, but moving on from the memories is surely crushing. Then again, time is better at fading memories than emotions. Sigh !!

Reasons

Do we require a reason to be with someone or someone not. All it requires is a heart to do so.

Lord created heart to know thyself and He created mind to figure out the ways to be thyself. May wisdom and love prevail. Amen.
