Battles are always fought alone...

But for you, this attempt would be in vain,
Yet I write to dissuade my pain!

Someday you will know to overcome your fears…
Someday, when all is lost and nothing remains, you will learn to be brave…
Someday, when you need someone and you find yourself alone, you will know that life’s battles are always fought alone…
That day, when you need someone, think of me…
I promise not to be there, for I am not one to forgive…
But I will ache for your attempts in vain, to reach beyond the dearth,
That day, I will weep, seeing you fumble, for I chose my path!!
Blissfully ignoring your chivalry, I walk ahead,
A mirthless laugh, a careless word, was it worth it?
It doesn’t matter!

You took away from me, a thing of value,
I am not above foolishness, knowing the bungle in my ways,
I steer through the muddied waters, through the murk, where my doom lurks,
Hell hath less fury than a scorned woman, goes the saying,
I walk ahead, to the precipice and into the hell,
Where I mourn me…

Goodbye, my love, don’t think of me,
You will rise again and into paradise,
My will and wish for your glory…

so well written that the pain it depicts can be felt by a reader even with out experiencing it ever before.
I am really touched.

I think the cliched saying, "Only thing that remains constant is change" or "Time is the best healer" is somehow connected to the whole thing. I wud really like you to think about it and 5 yrs down the line, I hope to read the continuation of this.. Only with a Happy Ending...

His pride took a ride, yet the fear for her, overbearing every rationale. The terrorists are loose in the city and the thought of her life in danger, however remote the possibility caused him to swallow his ego and ask of her again, “Please…” “I would rather be within the touching distance of a suicide bomber”, she said. Turning her back to him, she walked away, muttering, “So typical of him to think I require him now, as though I have not survived without him. I do not need him to feel secure in my life. I am happy and perfect and ….” “Are you?”, her conscience questioned. “Yes” “Stop lying to yourself at least”, her conscience countered. “I am not”, she a...

Happy Birthday, my love

DISCLAIMER: This is a fictional story. All the characters are fictional. The incident itself is a creation. Any resemblance to people or to the situations in the real world, is purely coincidental. --------------------------------------- Abhi was staring at the computer, hoping for some miracle, as his new problem does not seem to dissolve at his persuasive attempts. The clock keeps ticking as the seconds tick to minutes and into hour. At the strike of six O’clock in the evening, his calendar snoozed reminding him that he promised his girl friend a ride and dinner, as her birthday present. His heart did a flip flop as he realized he might not make it and ruin her perfectly good day. “Are you done?”, his manager was standing next to him. “Not even close”, he responded. His manager grunted and went his way. Abhi was frustrated. He loved his work and prided himself on his priorities and days like this, he wished he was working else where than this timeless job he landed himself in. ...

Tag - I, Me and Myself - Past, Present and Future

Thank you Usha for tagging me :). Tagging being new to me, took sometime to understand what needs to be done… The Tag Two questions from the past, present and future. Answer them and then tag your friends from the blog-o-sphere. Leave a comment on their blog letting them know they have been tagged and you are all set. Yesterday Your oldest memories Amazing how things of past cling on to you as memories that last forever. And those memories drive us to live a life amidst every chaos that erupts round us. There are a bunch of memories in my casket, each extremely warm and beautiful. To pick one is likely to be a tricky task. C’mon, I need some help here, which one to pick??? Will pick a memory when I was about seven years old. The kid in me fancied climbing hills, mountains, trees, buildings. But for a kid, do mountains or hills or peaks make sense? I think not, or I remember, trees and buildings are something that I thought should be mounted with extreme caution of a monkey. And I was v...
