White



The chill breeze bit into my flesh
Annoyed with my ignorance towards it
Playing hard to grab my attention
As I looked ahead unruffled.

The coldness around me unusual
In this hot summer night
My thoughts numb in despair
Like the wet silhouettes cramping around.

Her face calm and serene
Colored in early morning blue
Her slim body relaxing
In an embrace with eternity.

I tried to feel what she must have
An infinite nothingness in reach
My eyes dark like two black holes
A veil covering a flood of anguish.

I held her frail hands one last time
Amazed as ever at the strength they promised
My soul longed to say a million things to her
But hummed only a tune of silence.

My eyes pained in an urge to let out
The strong current of tears withheld
I rebuked myself for the many instances I hurt her
But the smile on her face had her own story to say

I brushed my hand along her long black hair
And silently vowed to keep my word
To understand what she tried so hard to teach
That love means never to let u say ‘I’m sorry’!

Relish the Moment!

Ah! the satisfaction of accomplishing a feat!
The restlessness of anticipation, the excitement while doing it and the relaxing happiness after completing it...... wondering what I'm talking about???
In general any action we love doing.... could be a bike race, a long awaited movie, a hamburger (preferably Kenzos :)) or a date with the hottest guy around..... well, right now am talking about just a book!
Sigh! all this foreword for nothing! LOL
Read "The Fountainhead"........ mind blowing! well written.....
kept hearing about it a lot in the last 4-5 yrs...... used to wonder what so great abt it???
I can only say, u should read it to feel it in spirit n reality!
Too strict and ethical for a real world but not really impossible to follow.......
Wonder what the woman thought when she created this characters, the man representing a greek sculpture and a iron will and the woman, an epitome of beauty & brains unleashed ..... did she know, that what she was about to accomplish is gonna be read by billions in the next 25 yrs but lived by probably a handful..... (even thats a goal achieved)......
She must have! women say things with such sincerity and confidence only when they believe it!
