Distance ~ Its just a scientific notation

The last time i saw you , you were walking up to join the endless line to put on your luggage which goes on a conveyor to 'god only knows where'. And as i was waiting there , looking at you, wishing that this moment never came, at least this soon, you turned around , and smiled. I held back all the tears and smiled back, which brought me hope. "Just 2 weeks Joe, and she will be back". If anyone said time flies, he must be mad or in coma. For all i knew, time stood still as i did, rooted to the same spot. And now, two weeks gone, and with so many nights of dreams of being to gether, lovely dreams which filled my heart, and when i woke up, realization of reality welled up thru my eyes.

So what if it is so many miles away. My heart is still in my reach , and you are there , warm and cosy , safe and sound, just like you cuddle up oblivious to all the surprises and sorrows that are awaiting. Distance is inevitable. Distance is real. There is nothing that you can do to UNDO that realisation that you are so far from me.

Now i stand here, where i stood 2 weeks back, thinking of the happy times, for a long time to come. Like said, the slow motion running and the rains. Things will be lovely, and when you hug me tight and the distance between us is no more.

I would then realize that Distance is just a scientific notation. Not space between us.

Small Surprises

So what if you are clumsy,
So what if you have misplaced your keys,
So what if I tell that you are have to be resourceful,
So what if I scold you,
So what if I tell you I HATE you,
You always know that i will come around, hug you tight and tell, 'Its ok doll, I love you' 
All the small stupid things you do, adds up to the lovely journey of life and being yourself,
How can I hate you when you are so much yourself,

How can i hate you when you are so much a part of my OWN self..

Really a HAPPY NEW Year

When the whole world was either celebrating, driving, shouting or Drunk, I decided to take the extra effort to put on my jacket and come to your place. It was a surprise and I never stop loving the way you make a face when you see me at your door step, EVERY-TIME. You hugged me, oblivious to the ever watchful eyes of people around, and some how, for once, i did not mind at all. The sweet talks, the way you lie on me, the way you look at me, I thought I could see them only in stories, in some distant fairy tale. But this is no fairy tale, since this is not a '... happily ever after'. But it is ..' happy for the moment, for every single moment'.

The night sky lit up with fireworks when the clock struck 12 and there was so much fun looking at the fireworks from the terrace, reading constellations, you were listening to me explaining the stars, the orion's belt even though you knew them all. The way you hugged me, the smell of my jacket lingering on your shoulders, reminding of all the nicest things around. Seems the whole world was celebrating the new year, when we were celebrating the newest year to come.. filled with happiness.

Perhaps the fireworks were not just in the sky.

Its special ~ Just Today

The long stretch of sandy beach, walking with your sandals in hand, so much running in your head, but nothing to think, those sweet nothings, to see the horizon brighten up, losing its hope to contain the sun from the sea carpet, which will do anything to tear it apart and shine on me, yet another Sunday.

Never did I know the feeling of all these, of walking in the sand though I hate it sticking all over my feet, feeling the sudden chill of dirty sea water washing upon the shores and over me, the warm breeze over my face, the serene moment in my head.

Never would i felt any of these, if you were not there by my side, looking everything which lovely innocence, with wonder, talking to me even if i am staring at the sea birds, running from the baby crabs to hold my hands, just standing for a while silent, very silent.

For once, the beach which i hated, seemed so special, Just Today.
