It was a fairytale #5



A week went by and they didn’t talk. Then suddenly one day he messages and she replies, “Yeah, I won’t mind talking to you at all!” She kept speaking so much. She was trying to be calm although, but yet she just felt a lot more comfortable with him now. She asked him about his likes and dislikes and what not, just like a very nosy investigating officer. Oh! But he just didn’t mind. He said, “Please continue asking, my lady.” She loved him to be the epitome of kindness and gentleman likeness. She asked him about his biggest fear, he replied, “Losing myself”; she said, “Be ready to lose yourself then”. She told him she feared darkness. He said “darkness is beautiful my lady, hiding in it everything”. She then told how her relation with him was totally different. She didn’t know what she felt with him but all she wanted to do with him was to star gaze in the depths of sky. She wanted to sit beside him in silence and embrace the presence of moments. He asked her, “Should I honestly tell you what I’d like to do with you.” She happily replied, “Yes please.” He began, “I would hold you in my arms and hug you so tight, would whisper in your ears and kiss you all over, just so much that you won’t be able to breathe.” She was breathless then and then a beautiful stanza she composed in reply. The words mesmerized him. She again realized, it was the writing they were in love with. He had no words. He said that is what you do to me. I love you. She replied, “Ad infinitum”. She said “I’d love to be the umbrella to your rains.” They realized it was simply the moments they had just then. The future was unknown. She said “all I need is time as my only tool and resource to uncover your bare soul.” She told him how she also wished to be with him, getting lost in the woods he loved, lying under the sky she admired, gazing into the darkness they enjoyed and the experiencing the madness in silence surrounding them. She wanted him to be the light to her darkness, for her to be the lap to his head, his shoulder to be her pillow, and their eyes to be the sea in which they both can be lost for all times to come. She said that is who they were – sweet bonds over writing. So, he said “I’ll feel jealous if you ever wrote without me - not even alone.”  


Would the story now remain incomplete forever? ( Only he can answer that)

The Truth.

I am in no state to write fancy words. The first truth is that I do not have the vocabulary to sew words into some captivating, mind-charming strings. It's been 7 days since I returned back home under these dire circumstances. The situation still does not seem to improve even a bit. Days have become so contrasting, varying and fluctuating, that too on the stress scale. Happiness and smiles come rarely (fortunately they come), and last only momentarily. Maybe they come during some comedy scene in a movie or during a one-liner joke in a stand-up comedy, but not necessarily every time. Each passing day makes it more difficult to laugh, to stay positive. The early part of the week, we all were still trying to push ourselves hard to stay positive, even when papa stopped going to his office. I could never have imagined him not going to his business for these many days. Even when we had to go for vacations, be it for a day or two, it used to be so difficult for him to take an off. Now, ...

All About Death (unedited)

With the recent demise of my grandfather, the past few weeks have been very disturbing for me. I have been through such varied emotional phases in this short a time, that when I look back I feel is something wrong with me or is the natural process of coping with grief? I’ll begin with my current mental state with making references to the vacillating emotion states that I went through during this time. While I write this down today, I am somewhat at peace with the fact that death is imminent. I am trying to accept death in its raw form without any associations with spirituality, biology or any other field that gives some comfort against the harsh reality of death. As I explored through varied articles all over the internet, I found out that how accepting death and not only of your close loved ones but your own self is important in living your life to the fullest. I am quite spiritually inclined, and so it becomes difficult for me to deny the fact that there is a single existence f...

Ek kavita unke naam...

कभी सोचा न था कि इस कदर आप से जुदा होंगे आखरी बार जो मिले थे आपसे अंतिम मिलन उसे कहेंगे किसे पता था कि आप हमे यहीं छोड़कर चल पड़ेंगे कोशिश करे हम तो भी आपको न कभी भुला सकेंगे कहाँ चल दिए उस घर को छोड़ जो टिका था उस संजीव  नींव पर कहाँ चल दिए उस हाथ को छोड़ अपनी विनीता को भुलाकर श्रवण कुमार जिन बने उन्हें ही छोड़ दिया अकेला खुशमिज़ाज़ और रंगीन था जो भविष्य नज़र आता है आज वही  धुंधला कार्यक्षेत्र में अनुपम गुण संपूर्ण जैसे स्वयं हो केशव पर पहुँच गए सितारों में कोई सीढ़ी न जाये जिस तक यकीन न कर सकूँ अब भी कि न आओगे घर अब आप कभी नहीं लाओगे वो चॉकलेट्स और मिठाई अब न बनाओगे पनीर और पिज़्ज़ा अलग न गूंज सकेगी वो हसी दोबारा रोशन हो उठता था जिससे संसार सारा फिर वह आवाज़ न देगी सुनाई "लड़की देख ये क्या है?" सोच आँख भर आई न होगा अब वह कनपुरिया स्टाइल में बतियाना और न "बवाल हो तुम" यह कहलाना याद करू आपको तो न मान सकू सच इसे कि कल तक जो हँस  कर थे खड़े वो आज लग गए मौत के गले क्यूँ चले गए इतनी दूर हमसे आप चाहकर भी न थाम सके आपका हाथ चले गए क्यूँ दूर...
