Of Stone benches and sweet little nothings

I took a long walk today, a walk back to that stone bench, where we always spoke in silences; and read each other's thoughts on those puffy white clouds across the true blue sky;

Where we always watched the sun go down as we celebrated another day of love!!

The walk was surprisingly longer this time, can't remember walking this far back then. I thought it was closer than this but then, well..it is what it is. I saw a couple down there, on our very own stone bench or so we used to call it ;-)

They sat there in silence, head to head, cheek to cheek, shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand. Ah! just like how we used to sit!

I watched them as they spoke in silence, a language only they could understand...I watched them for a long time.... cuz that's was all I could do, I didn't want to disturb them.. and so I went back to my own memories all over again, memories of a good old sweet and innocent love....

They somehow reminded me of us, and the bond we used to share.. of the days I read your mind before you spoke it out.. of how annoyed you would feel, cuz I always managed to do that... of the bubbly talks and bouncy walks... 

I felt like I was slowly being pushed forward by some force...and I was moving closer and closer to those lovely people; I had this strong urge to tell them, to be together always and never let go no matter what.... I didn't know if it was a right thing to say  to unknown strangers. But someone from deep inside of me wanted me to do that... I walked and crossed the bench.. and moved forward so I could be face to face with them... and what I saw left me dumbfounded, there  I saw us... yes you and me, just like we used to be back then... right there in flesh n bones...I turned back... and ran down the road... back to where I came from ...and while I stopped to catch my breath I realized that walk was... but a walk down my memory lane.... 

Sweet Dreamz

You spoiled my sleep and don't you even dare to think I'll let you snore your way to glory... UP!! WAKE UP N TALK TO ME

He rolled over and looked up... NOOOOO plzzzzzzz.. am soo sooo sleepy... plz plz plzzz

NO WAY! you spoiled my sleep and I WILL see to it that you stay awake with me... EVEN IF I DON"T SLEEP AT ALL

He sat up.. frowning.. she sure has to have it her way doesn't she? Ok now what?? tell me.. you want me to sing for you? or you want us to just talk till 8 in the morning.. and then get ready and move to office? anyways you are used to not having much sleep... that doesn't mean you expect me to be like you.... I need some sleep else it might spoil my day..

He stopped as the shiny pearl drops dropped down her soft cheeks, as he watched she started to sob.. Its been a week since I slept properly.. hardly 3-4 hours I sleep a day.. am unable to concentrate at work.. I get irritated the whole day; you spoiled that 3-4 hours and went off to sleep. I never disturbed you all these days but I couldn’t take it today. Every day you make me stay awake for you and when it’s time for you to sleep you just turn around and doze off. Ever tried to understand my situation and tried to help me ???

Oh ok ok I get it.. am sorry.. Now we need to find a solution to this sleep problem of yours, there's no point in crying. I wish you could fall asleep at the drop of a hat like me. Let me try putting you to sleep today, it will help...

No, It’s of no use.. the harder I try to fall asleep the lesser I get close to falling asleep.

Well, you couldn't do it alone, so let’s try it together.

No use :-(

Trust me... let’s try...

Ok...

Now listen to me.. and close your eyes... close...

ok...

do you see us together in the beach?? mmmm... can you feel the golden sands?? yes.. do you see dreams floating close by?? No.. look out..I can see them.. beautiful dreams...oh I saw but they're far away.. Daz ok.. but you can see them right?? Yes.. now lets walk up to those dreams and ask them a favor.. we’ll take help from them to get you some sleep.. they will tell you their stories and help you fall asleep... they’re too far away from us.. we won't be able to make it... trust me... now take my hands.. and lets walk.... we don't have to hurry... lets just walk .. I want to walk through the water... alright lets walk through the water then... hmm.. the waters warm isn't it.. yeah... can I hold you tight?? mmm.. so he hugged her tight held her close.. so close that he could smell her hair..he spoke as he breather her in….I love the smell of your hair.... mmm :-) ... have I ever told you how much I love your hair?? the first time I played with your hair was when we were watching Someone like you.. I don't think you even realized it.. you were soo deep into the movie... and remember?? the first time I ever tried to tie your hair.. I am yet to master the art of tying hair I guess... do I still hurt you when I try to tie your hair??   sweets??? slept?? Already??? That was quick… baby mine…

Far away she was floating with her dreams with him... ….baby we'll go back in the morning… am too sleepy now… Thank you.. and yeah we made it together

Between... this is my 50th post.. Although this was done a week ago.. I never published it.. since romance is what I love to write about .. I thought of saving this for this special post :-)

Celebrating Love

He: WHAT?? What are you frowning at'?? 
She: Nothing
He: Oh come on now tell me what??
She: Oh!! Its supposed to be a surprise for you... so I can't really tell you what.
He: Ah ha!! lemme guess now.. you are confused .. bout what to gift me for valetines :-)
She: Not fair... you always guess whats running in my mind.. not done..
He: ha ha... baby I read your mind and I understand each and every move of yours.... and thats what bought us together.. and let me ask you a question.. do you really need a specific day to celebrate our love??? aren't we celebrating it each n everyday??? and do we really need a reason to exchange gifts?? and what makes you think you can gift me something better than what you already blessed me with?
eh??? :-| what special gifts did I give you?? they were all so ordinary ...


and he pulled her onto his arms and held her tight.. and then he slowly lifted her chin and cupped her tiny face in his hands and whispered 'You are the best gift I can ever ask for' .. and they kissed.....

Love is a wonderful feeling!!!  and being in love is a celebration in itself. So all you ladies and gentlemen who;s never been kissed by love... never lose an opportunity to be in love...for.... There’s no better way to bring happiness in your life!!

Wish you all a very Happy Valentines Day!!! 

Love is immortal

He took another long leap... turned back and asked her....

You know whats the biggest problem in love??

The good guy always gets  the wrong girl...

and the good girl always gets the wrong guy..

They fall in love and the good one's get cheated.. 

and now the good guy ends up thinking all gals are frauds 

and the good girl thinks all guys are flirts...

Finally when the good girl meets the good guy, 

they avoid falling in love with each other 

and try their best to be just good friends.... 

But with time.. they realize that they are in fact very deeply in love with each other... 

and now.. since they've already been cheated, they chose to remain as friends and stops themselves from letting each other know each one's feelings.. and finally.. love dies..

She walked up to him looked up into his eyes and asked 'What happens when the good girl and good guy tell each other of their feelings???  See love remains and lives in that case!!! '

He looks away and says..... 'Well it does die then as well.. they will sacrifice love for family/career/society.. anything.. and then love dies'

Her eyes wandered. all over his face..... but love never dies ... as its immortal.... people might part ways..priorities might change... but the love ... love still remains.. somewhere deep down within you... in some corner where you wouldn't bother to look at... and one fine day you might stumble upon it.. only to realize it was still there... so much alive!!!

P.S : The beginning of the post was actually a forward message :-)

Pure

You set me ablaze.. without a warning... .

and I feel myself burning..

burning with passion..burning in love...

N that feeling!!..Oh that special feeling…

a feeling beyond comfort.. a feeling beyond pain

a feeling…so wonderful, elite and pure

for along with it burnt my feelings of hatred,

vengeance and envy…. and all such

heinous feelings residing in me

I burnt bright like the glowing sun..

and I feared so much if I would burn you out...

but this feeling Oh! this wonderful feeling

which reduced me to ash…from which

I rose… like the phoenix…..

So divine… so virgin

For I've been touched...

by a touch so pure.. so healing..

a touch that finally purified me

Ripples

I lose control over myself..
as the waves of your love.. 
ripples around me.. 
Please hold me tight... lest I fall again... 

Sunday Letter

I told you I was worked up... really worked up.. and tired and I was so mad and angry at the way things were at work and how life's been treating me.. I tried watching that comedy flick to divert my mind..that didn't help either... I didn't sleep the whole of last night.. and you shouted at me for that.. its not my fault... I tried hard.. and I thought maybe I need to relax, as you said maybe am suffering from high BP :-|


So... I shut down the lights, lighted those perfumed candles, dabbed on some aroma oil and lied down.. with my eyes closed.. they say deep breaths help you relax, so I started doing that.. now stop smiling... you're embarrassing me... 


So. like I said I lay there relaxed, and then all of a sudden I saw you&me... US!!! I could see all those breathtaking moments that we spent together... how we always laughed so hard at each other and the silly things we did, how our fingers used to entwine over those long silent walks... how you held me close when we watched the beautiful sun go down.... and yes the first ever time you pinched my ears and punished me for saying something I wasn't supposed to say.. and it did hurt.. remember??? my ears was all red.. wait till I get back at you for this...  All that and more my love....


All of it... was soo perfect... so good... honey I don't really know if we are in a dream or if I'm living my dream... whatever it is.. its beautiful and I wish it remains like this forever.

Longing

He sat there and opened the last of the remaining notes she left... "Baby I soo miss our morning cup of coffee together!!!" he smiled.. man she loves me.. she really does love me a lot. That was so cute of her to leave tiny little messages here and there.. but he was sad that this was the last one for now.. he'll have to wait.. wait until he meets her again to get another set of cute lil surprises!! She sure has her way to keep him guessing everytime... and always left him wanting for more.. it made him feel special.. no one ever made him feel the way she did. If only he could tell her how much he loved her and how much he needs her. If only he could rush back now and hold her tight.. to feel her heart beat in rhythm with his... to run his hair through those soft tresses... and sink into those deep brown eyes.. but then he knew he had to wait.. a few more days... days that creeps by like centuries...

She sat there.. slowly sipping her morning cup of coffee..God I miss him soo much!!!  She missed him waking her up everyday with his sweet smile.. Oh! how she missed the fun of lazily brewing the morning cup of coffee. And then she thought of the last of the few notes she'd kept hidden.. Wonder if he'd find it... lol he must be searching the entire place for it  She loved to hear the excitement in his voice when he always calls her up after discovering each one... each day... her happiness new no bounds when she see him happy. Her world has been revolved around his happiness for quite some time.. she loves it the way it is.. and she doesn't want anyone or anything to change it. God if only she could see him now.. and hold him tight.. and let him play with her hair.. run his fingers down her cheeks and see him stare deep into her eyes.. but yes she knows she had to wait..  a few more days...

Waking up

She opened her eyes and looked down.. he was there.. as always lying on her stomach... sleeping like a child.. but she was the child amongst the two and it was he who bought out the child in her.

She ran her fingers through his hair and smiled to herself as she watched his head rising up and down in rhythm with her breathing. Slowly she moved his head down from her stomach so she could get up.. he slowly  moved up and hugged her tight, fluttered his lashes and lovingly looked at her through the windows of his soul. They laid there for sometime... lost in each other.. as always.. and then they kissed each other and rose with the rising sun.

I Wish

I wish I could hold your hands and feel the need to be yours.

I wish I could sink into those oh so deep eyes of yours

I wish I could spend the entire day just listening to the soulful voice of yours

I wish I could go to the beach tonight with you

Lie down on the sand and stargaze with you

I wish I could stay the whole night awake with you

Fly up to the moon and watch the earth with you

I wish you could hear all that I want to say

I wish this distance between us would disappear some day

I wish you would come along n whisper that forever with me you will stay

All at once

'Hey Sheena, what a pleasant surprise!!' said Ronak. Although its been about 2 years since he deleted her number from his phone, it lay there imprinted in his mind, like the stone carvings on the walls of the temple he so loved to visit every often.

Sheena : Hi, how are you?
Ronak : Moving on.. how about you?
Sheena : Am doing good.. enjoying life..
Ronak : Good for you... so what made you call me after such a long time???
Sheena : Well.. Nikhil wanted to talk to you and since you've forbidden me from passing your number to anyone I decided to conference, you can hang up once you guys are done.. I'll just conference and keep the phone aside
Ronak : Oh ok.. Take care..
Sheena: Ok.. you too..


And she left, leaving him with Nikhil...
'Bye Nikihl, do drop in when you get time' he was in no mood to talk..


A strange feeling groped through his stomach and rose up to his chest .. 'NO!
NO NO NO NO WAY!! it took me almost 2 years to gather myself, I won't let a phone call ruin it all for me' he shouted and sat down. He ran his hands through his shaved head.. he was dizzy.. I need some rest.. maybe I'll sleep for some time.. he walked to his room and lied on his bed.. staring up the ceiling.. how I wish she'd come back.


Just then the phone rang, 'You didn't even ask me to come back you moron! You are always like this.. its always me.. am the one who always patches up.. I'm the one to say sorry always.. I thought you would've changed.. but look at you! You are still the same.. the cute little rascal that I've always loved' Tears rolled down his cheeks.. he couldn't believe she finally said what he wanted her to say since 2 years.. 'Baby am soo soo sorry.. I just thought you've moved on.. and didn't want to upset you. You know I need you don't you?? you know I can never say that to you..' 'Moved on?? I'm coming.. am coming over NOW and will slap you hard to let you know how well I've moved on'


He pinched himself to be sure it wasn't a dream. Man it wasn't, he ran down the stairs and rushed to the stores to get her favorite drink and the chicken to go with. I'll make it a special for her... to let her know how much I missed her... All at once he was staring back at the ceiling, he realized it was all a dream or was it just his imaginations running wild?? Whatever it was... it was nothing but real
