tears.........

tears... tears and rain... two things which do not strike your mind together... and still have an integral relation....
Charlie Chaplin once said.... i love to cry in the rain..because no one knows i am crying... this coming from the funniest man on earth can be a shock...but it sums up the relationship between tears and rain beautifully....
tears... drops of water.. rain... again drops of water...can both be a sign of happiness... or extreme sorrow... and u never know wen they would start coming......

Tears... u hate to see em in your beloveds eyes.... u hate to see him sad.....your heart cries wen u see his eyes wet... n then u cry too....u feel fr him... u love him so much...
nd Rains... integral for a perfect day out wd him :) how.. u wish you could walk hand in hand in the rains with him..... eating bhutta(corn on the cob) :)
tears and rain ... synonymous wd love..... nd synonymous with us...:) :)

ever wondered....

Ever wondered... why someone becomes special to you... so special that you cant even see beyond him/her.... that person is your morning... and that person your night....
u never want him to get away from your sight....
you miss him every breath you take.... you wanna dance with him.. till the dawn breaks... hmm....... din intend to write poetry.. but i guess your heart sings a new tune when ur circumstances aint right!! :D

Ever felt like you could laugh and cry at the same time.... you wanna be happy cz u hv finally found someone who you were waiting for.. since forever... and u wanna cry cz.. you fear that you would lose him and he l go .... go away forever...
you forget the whole world... you smile always...u are not even walking!! you feel you are flying.........

Ever wondered,how much you snubbed ppl talking about this stuff and finally wen u urself are in the moment... u feel u have no control.... no control over what u feel and then ultimately write!!!

people bear with me... i guess it would be okay with time!!! :D :D

is it for real??

I was cleaning my inbox today, deleting all read mails.... reading the unread ones.. and suddenly i bumped into an unread mail... ... it was a poem... and boy o boy what a poem it was.....it was beautiful and magical..
and then suddenly it struck me as lightening.. just like i had missed reading this mail.. i may have missed on many moments in life... words that were unspoken... truths untold...
and then i think.. what if i lived those moments?? My life had been different or just the same....
There were some moments in life when i wanted to tell people how much they mean to me.. I wanted them to know... but I took all those people for granted.. din ever tell them, thinking they would understand..
and today i think and i wonder.. what if those people had something to say to me?? wouldn't I be happier? knowing that i meant so much to someone..
Now, those people are not in my life, the contacts have been broken, the relationships changed and i have missed my chance...
I hope and I wish i never miss these chances again... i ll make sure i don't... and THAT'S A PROMISE....

The Wait

Everything changes,
seconds change into minutes,
minutes change into hours
and hours change into days...
what does not change is the wait....

i am still waiting for you,
waiting for your return..
I hope u do come back..
I still havnt got my turn...

I want to speak up,
The silence is killing me..
who do I talk to??
No one is to be seen...

Engulfed in this sadness,
I want mi ray of hope..
will i ever get to see it?
With this lonelines...
With this uncertainity...
I m not able to cope......
