Words flow ! #GoFigure

When emotions are high ...

Or low ...

An ebbing and throbbing in the head and heart ...

Words flow to express ...

To express the desires embedded...

A deeply rooted need to belong ...

To belong to the one who understands...

Who comprehends the feelings expressed ...

Wuthering blows high and low ...

An egress of matters unknown...

Yet, there remains a constant ...

The consistency of the written word ...

A consent to his desire ...

A consent to her desire ...

A consent to their aspirations ...

For expectations may dash to the ground...

Aspirations soar high ...

Like the kites that shall follow soon ...

Towards the blazing yet quintessentially beautiful golden Sun. #GoFigure 

Encapsulated ! #GoFigure

His smiling eyes...

A remembrance from a few days ago ...

A short but filled with heartache break ...

A realisation ...

Suddenly, he was all over then gone ...

In a jiffy her whole world collapsed ...

A world encapsulated with his voice ...

A voice that couldn't be forgotten ...

Resounding in her ears ...

Her mind captivated by the smile ...

She missed the boyish grin ...

The words ... What would the boys be thinking ...

It wasn't easy ...

Tearing herself away from the magnetic charisma ...

She says on this day ...

She certainly is ENCAPSULATED by his charm ...

She dreams to be held in those strong arms ...

Swooning over his voice belting out songs for her ...

His fingers caressing her hair...

Running in her hair...

Entwining themselves in the greys ...

A slight smile spreads across her face...

As she imagines him reading her ...

While entwined in his warm embrace ...

A pretty bold picture to think of ...

But, what the heck! ...

She gifts herself to the birthday boy ...

Take me as I am ...

You shall have no regrets ...

I swear, she says softly in his ears ...

Nibbling and tugging at his earlobes teasingly ...

Rest is for him to figure out in his imagination ! 

A strong woman #GoFigure

They see the mask ...

A put on ...

They see a strong woman ...

A very strong woman ...

They don't see the vulnerability ...

They don't see the tears ...

All they witness is ...

Their own perceptions ...

Perceptions based on their experiences ...

Or to put it in perspective ...

Their inexperiences ...

She has the mask firmly in place ...

For she believes some day ...

A knight would come ...

He would unmask her ...

He would peel off layers of decades ...

Of fear and apprehension ...

He would know the true her ! #GoFigure 

Shelling peas New Year's Eve ! #GoFigure

She's been shelling peas...

All of the last week of the last year...

New year's eve too spent shelling peas...

Why? 

Because, while shelling peas she goes spiralling into her own world...

Immersed in her thoughts...

She wonders had it worked out ...

Where she would have been...

With whom, doing what ?

The world of imagination takes over ...

While shelling peas...

She's transported into a perfect world...

Of course, of her imagination ...

With the person she liked ...

Smitten as he seemed to be ...

That image remains in her eyes ...

She rewinds to the last few conversations in her head ...

The real ones...

His voice...

Heaving a sigh ...

She shakes it off ...

Both their egos on play ...

Demolished what could have been...

Lack of time or the distance ...

It could have been overcome...

But the lack of sensitivity on each one's part ...

Pulled them apart ...

Shelling peas, she looks beyond...

And yonders ...

It's a vast desert like the Rann of Kutch ...

Nothing for miles ...

She gets back to shelling peas ...

Freezing them for the year ahead ! #GoFigure 

Was it real or unreal ?

It felt so unreal ...

Yet, was so real ...

Then, what happened to the magic?

#GoFigure 

There's no permanence, yet ... #GoFigure

There is no permanence...

They spoke at length about it ...

Yet, there's something that's nagging her ...

What's it about him ?

Something that she can't shake off ...

The voice ...

The sincerity in the spoken words ...

Something about him was different...

Yet, it frizzled out ...

Like a flat coke ...

Yet a coke nonetheless ...

Maybe he feels the void too...

As she does...

But, who will take the first step...

The step to bridge the gap ...

Or it would indeed mean ...

An end to something that was beautiful...

Beautiful, while it lasted !

There's no permanence...

Or, is there? #GoFigure

Relationships have a time frame, just a matter of acceptance! #GoFigure

How profound is it to make a statement ...

Relationships have a time frame ...

Just a matter of acceptance ! 

It was beautiful while it lasted...

Something different...

Pristine and an exhilarating experience at the same time ...

But, it didn't last ...

What happened, is a mystery ...

With a heavy heart one must let go ...

A lump forming in the throat ...

Unshed tears welling at the rim of the eyes ...

A sigh is released ...

And, she walks towards the sunset all alone !

Relationships have a time frame ...

Hence, proven ! #GoFigure 

Full Stop! #GoFigure

There comes a time in life...

When you pause and reflect...

There comes a time when you keep walking and let go ...

There comes a time when you run away from what bogs you down...

And then, a time comes when you put a full Stop to everything ...

Anything that hampers your peace of mind...

You have no time for nonsense...

You don't need anyone around...

You are comfortable in your space...

You don't need an encroachment in that space...

Any activity that disturbs the peace...

The moment you are at ...

Just put a Full Stop to it ...

You don't need drama in your life...

You are happy in your solitude...

That, that moment you put a Full Stop ...

You stop the advancement of any peril...

Even if it's meant to be...
