PAIN (#2)

EVERY NIGHT HE'D CALL HER
AND EVERY NIGHT SHE'D CUT HIS CALL.
HIS WAIT WAS ENDLESS AND HE KNEW
STILL HE CARRIED ON HIS ETERNAL SUFFERING...

SUFFERING BY CHOICE NOT BY FATE
IT WAS AN ENDLESS HOPE
AND NOT A HOPELESS END
HE'D TELL HIMSELF EVERYDAY...

EVERYDAY THE LIGHT BECAME A LITTLE DIM
EVERYDAY HE BECAME A LITTLE WEAK
YET HE CONTINUED TO WAIT FOR HER
HIDING THE AGONY IT CAUSED HIM WITHIN...

WITHIN THE DEPTHS OF HIS HEART
BENEATH THE SURFACE OF SCARS
WAS A FEELING SO PURE
THAT THE WORLD COULD NOT CORRUPT...

CORRUPT WERE THE PEOPLE WHO DROVE THEM APART
YET VENGEANCE WAS NOT SOMETHING HE DESIRED
FOR HAVING PLENTY WISHES WAS A LUXURY BEYOND HIM
TO BE WITH THE ONE HE LOVED WAS ALL HE LONGED FOR...

FOR FATE WAS HIS CRUEL TORMENTOR
AND HE WAS THE ADAMANT DISBELIEVER
NEVER ACCEPTING THAT HIS LOVE
WOULD HAVE TO BOW BEFORE DESTINY......

PAIN

EVEN THOUGH THE PAIN NEVER SUSIDEDED
IT BECAME A PART OF HIM.
THE AGONY AND SUFFERING
RUNNING THROUGH HIS VIENS
LIKE BLOOD.

FIGHTS WERE ROUTINE
HIS ANGER WAS CONSUMING
EVERYTHING AROUND HIM
AND ALL THOSE NEAR HIM
WERE AFRAID WHEN HE MIGHT EXPLODE.

HIS WAS A SOUL BOUND IN DARKNESS
AND THE FIRE THAT SHONE FROM WITHIN
HAD BEEN LONG DOUSED
BY THE DARK WATERS OF LONLINESS.

HE SURROUNDED HIMSELF
WITH GENINUINELY LOVING AND CARING PEOPLE.
YET ON THE INSIDE HE WAS ALONE.
HIS PAIN SHUT IN A BOX INSIDE HIS HEART
WHICH SELDOM OPENED.

YET WHEN IT OPENED,
OUT CAME THE SUPPRESED PAIN AND AGONY.
AND HIS WOUNDS WERE BARED FOR THE WORLD TO SEE,
HIS WEAKEST MOMENT, THOSE WERE.

HE'D WANTED TO RUN AWAY,
BUT HIS GHOSTS FOLOWED HIM EVERY WHERE.
FOR HIS TIRMENT WAS ENDLESS,
A PART OF HIS LOWLY EXSISTENSE.

HIS EYES WERE THE PERFECT CURTAIN
HIDING BEHIND THEM THE TRAGEDY
THAT HAD MADE THE MAN
LIKE AN OCEAN HIDING THE SHIPWRECK BENEATH.


FOR HIS PAIN MAYBE GREAT
BUT HE HAD VOWED TO KEEP HIS CURSE TO HIMELF.
HE WAS THAT SILENT VICTIM
WHOM FATE TORTURED AT PLEASURE.

I can't sleep

It's two in the night,
But I can't sleep.
I've put out all the lights,
But I can't sleep.
I've closed my eyes,
But I can't sleep.


Whatever

Everyone seemed to be of the same opinion. They were so sure it wouldn't workout. These things never workout. Never. Conventional wisdom and common sense would advice against it. In-fact no-one inH his or her sane mind would advice it. It was the worst way to get into trouble.

Everywhere he went, he heard that. He was being an idiot. He was going to fall on his face. It was something obvious to all of them.

"Why?", he'd ask them.

"Because its wrong.",would be the reply.

"But who defined right and wrong?"

"If so many people say its wrong it has to be."

"Does agreeing with each other make you right. Do sheer strength of numbers and so called "social acceptance" make wrong, right" 

"Whatever son. You're wrong."

IS THAT IT?

Alone I cannot fight,
I tried a million times,
To get over you,
But nothing would suffice.
I can't see bear the curse,
Of harbouring a soul thats mine,
Damned to never smile.
Bringing the same fate that I have wrought,
The melonchaly sadness the you do not deserve,
The faults which yours never were.
But no matter how hard I try,
A part of me hopoes, wishes and cries,
Tells me that I can't let go of you,
That I've to hold on,
'Cause no matter what others may say,
I really have but one pure feeling in my heart,
And that is Achilles's heel,
What I for you feel...

THE PROPOSAL

He knelt and thought hard..... how he'd say it..... how would he put it into words; describe something so pure without corrupting it...... he loved her..... but it would be obviously stupid to say just that.. blurt it out .... he could say something like I'll always keep u happy.. I'll never lie to u.... I'll never break a promise.... our life would be a fairytale.... only love and bliss..... but then...... but then that would also be a lie.... apart from sounding like a obsessed compassionate but clueless lover....

And so he looked into her eyes.... stared deep into them..... and said "Juno, I love u. I love the essence of what you are and what you aspire to be. I want to be in a relationship with you not because you are like the single most beautiful girl in my life..... which.. umm... no doubt you are.... but because... because we connect like .... like...  as if our souls are two jigsaw puzzles which form a perfect hole. I know I wouldn't be be able keep all the promise I make to you but I'll keep those which mean the most.... and even though initially it may seem a fairy tale.. that is if u say yes to me... but when the fairy tale ends.... when you are busy at your job and you come back home and you need a friend to just sit and talk... I'll be that friend..... when you need to smile.... I'll be your clown... and when you are angry..with your ears all red..... I'll be your  punching bag.. but don't punch too hard. I'll be your soul mate...... your companion for life???"""

She was blushing..... deep red...... her cheeks...

"Umm.. my knees hurt..."

She realised it was her turn to say........ "Idiot. Moron. Duffer. How can u?......... How can u?....... make something sound so calculated and so..... so cute at the same time. Mr. Mayank...... you think your classy lines will get u anywhere? Your big smile would make me realise how much I missed it? Your shining eyes would make me wanna look into them endlessly?????? Ahaan.. you think so....?"

"Y...Yes..."

"Then I guess you're right Mr. Lucky. I love you too... my geek"..she said it so softly..almost like a whisper.... a secret  kept for a long time.... but finally let out..........

They  kept looking into each other eyes. The pain in his knees was gone... time seemed to stand still... she came closer... or was it him?????  It didn't matter....... They came close.... their heads tilted.... closer..... and they kissed..... after what seemed like a beautiful eternity.... and when they parted...they knew...that .... that their fates were forever sealed...... it was no longer me or you... but us... just us.... and nothing else mattered...

LOVE: from me to us - My b'day gift to my correspondence... my best friend... my girlfriend....

My Princess :-),
It's been so short a time since you came into my life. (Although I doubt its "my" life anymore). But it never really fealt that you actually came inot my life. It never really fealt i came to know you. it fealt as if you were always there. As if I always knew you. Like a part of me I wasn't aware of but when i came to know of it, the sense of completeness clouded every other emotion. The happiness of being one with you was and still is so heartening that its my driving force. The sureity that I have you and you have me is everything I always yearned for. I feel as if I'd been always waiting for you. And I'd waited for a hundred lifetimes more, for you.
Looking back, I realise its been hardly a year since I know you. I wasn't even invited to your last birhtday. But I can tell you this, I'm so happy that I'm with you in this one and know Imma be there for all the rest of them.

So close we were, for so long,
Yet never did we look around,
For then we would have found,
To whom, were our souls bound.

So many years, we waited for us;
The yearning in our heart subdued by surrounding chorus;
Maybe then we'd never accept, that a desire was ever there;
But looking back now, I know a place in my heart for you was always there.

Through the darkest of nights, through the fiercest of storms;
You've held me, when I'd never held my own.
I would've said I owe you my heart but I won't;
'Cause you are my heart, my love, my soul.

A year ago if you'd ask me you whom I love;
I'd given you a dozen names.
Ask me now, Just look into my eyes;
And you's know the answer isn't the same.

It used to be like this,
Someone I'd spend my life with,
With all that love and bliss,
That was all I wished.

Then you came along, and it was never the same.
The very fact that I had my own life changed.
For there was no longer me and nothing was mine,
There was just us, something so divine.

I had this dream of us,
Lying on a full moon night,
With you by my side,
And to you I'd rhyme.

Rhyme my heart to you,
As word and feelings interwined,
Wait, did I say "my heart"?
Its no longer mine.

My soul, my love, my life;
Imma say it a hundred times,
But still not get to the depths of the feelings,
You can see them, just look into my eyes.

You say my arms are your world,
Well you are mine,
Lying in your lap,
That's how I wanna live our life.

I say our, because singularity for me no more exsists,
Or maybe it does, its just that you and me make one,
Its difficult to tell apart one form other,
And you say "you and me together forever".

True it may've been if we were seperate,
But we are not.
A single soul, a perfect whole,
We are seperable nomore.

Look into my eyes and you'll see,
Things which only you saw and only you can see.
For these are things, some just for you,
Others, only my soulmate could see, and this is you too.

I too saw, pain and a soul wrought,
With so much agony that it had sourounded itself with walls.
High they were , and to others, they might have seemed inpenetrable,
For none could break them and set you free, just like you used to be.

But when I looked at them, I could see,
Those walls were built just for me.
I dont know how or why or when,
But somewhere along the way I realised I belonged inside them.

I'd broke those walls and set you free,
'Cause in your eyes I could see,
The desire to just let your self be,
And sometimes I saw flashes, the yearning to be with me.

And I longed to be with you,
But most of all I wanted to be your best friend,
To share your pain which I could see,
To break your walls and set you free.

I'd see you cry every night,
And I'd shed tears too, in my own right.
It was my first time, that I was crying for someone else,
But I could feel your pain,and it was so intense.

I just wanted it to go,
For it I'd even give up my soul,
Just wanted to see you smile once more,
Wished and yearnded for it from my core.

And away it went,
For even if the pain was intense,
But so was my love for you,
And your's for me, I could see.

I held you tight,
Even as you held me,
And slowly we moulded into one,
Just one soul, just one love.

Things seemed like a fairytale,
Nothing could go wrong, or so it seemed,
But then it went,
And time put us to test.

In the beginning I tried to hide,
Tried to run away from it far and wide.
For it wasn't a thing we'd seen,
Fighting with myself, or so it seemed.

Then I realised,
It wasn't something to run from or fight,
It was just a storm, it had to subside,
'Cause although us,the mistakes were mine.

Something snapped, something clicked;
I love you more than I earlier did;
Want you to stand on my feet,
Take you in my arms and kiss your lips.

I love you Jaan, I always will;
I know that you love me too,
May all our dreams come true,
Even if some of them don't, you have me and I have you.



-YOUR Mango Milkshake.

Happy Birthday Strawberry Shortcake.
