Being in love

I'm in love with a someone,
who withstood the onslaught of time.
See her around once in a while,
thoughts of her turn to a smile.

She knows not, my feelings for her,
Too confused to say, total fear.
Mutual respect, we have in plenty,
When I see her, my heart turns to confetti.

I write to her, pages & beyond,
she reads them all, doesn't respond.
We live in the city, worlds apart,
Yet, there's no one else in my heart.

Beauty, riches, success and intellect,
We're poles apart to even connect.
Art, passion and yearning for love,
These, our similarities as of now.

Is it lust, envy, sloth or greed?
Hell no! I don't belong to that breed.
Love, care, respect and comfort
That I know is our only need.

As my feelings for her grow,
so does my fear that I'll have to let go.
And as I stand alone today,
Wish to tell her that I love her, someday.

Time without you

My darling angel, The first time we had a long gap in seeing each other early this year, I mentioned that you can't do this to me. I have already missed so much of you that I miss you every moment I'm not with you. You said you would make it up to me by baking me something special every time we stayed away. I said you would have to give me time to compensate the days I miss you. For around a month or so, I took you to classes and brought you back home. We would spend an hour in all, driving to your class and back. So, we had agreed that for each day that you missed seeing me, you would give me an hour more of your time. It has been forty days now since we met last and I feel terrible without you. So, I decided to make note of the amount of time you need to give me now. Current period = 40 days Previous time = 30 days approximately Days in between = 15 days (Roughly the days you didn't have class) That makes it 85 days. In other words, you need to give me 85 hou...

I'm sorry

I'm sorry that you loved someone, But they made you feel like you asked for more than you deserved. I'm sorry that they abandoned you, when you needed them the most. It has made you believe that, being in love hurts. I'm sorry for all the trials and tribulations, that you had to face on your own. The sympathy, the snide remarks, the apathy, the bickering and the confusion. I'm sorry that you had to undergo all that you did. But it has made you a warrior from a queen. I salute you for your undying spirit and, for fighting your hurricanes with courage and poise.

High School Reunion - The aftermath

Dear friends, I'm back in Coimbatore and would like to share my thoughts with you. I would first start off with the customary 'thank you' for being there and having shared time with me. Those who couldn't make it, I hope we get to meet again some time. This is going to be a long long long really long read, so I suggest you take some time out to read through this. Grab a coffee (only coffee/tea) if you want. Make it two. This is heartfelt to each and everyone of you with whom I have spent the glorious days of my life, my childhood. About myself (blah, blah, more blah) - Matter of fact, those have been the only days that I have been mobile on my 'own' feet. Today my car is my feet, taking me to places and allowing me the liberty to meet people from various walks of life. Life took a nose dive for me when I was 16, thanks to the generous effort of Dr. Arvind Sangolli, whom most of us would know. Was given anabolic steriods without prior information for a nast...
