The One

Many have come and many have gone
But it's only me, struggling to move on
I miss them...miss you most of all
The void you left behind isn't small

"Let go", a phrase I don't really get
If there was love, how can you forget?
"Time heals all wounds", they say
Then why do I cry everyday?!

You let go of my hand and walked away
Didn't turn back once to look my way
In the world we created, you left me alone
Broken, I strive to live on my own

I engage in work to divert my mind
Start anew, leave the past behind
But memories remain of me and you
Erasing is painful, remembering is too

Past fights are no more a bitter memory
I see I was wrong, "I am so sorry"
I want to make amends, I want you back
I want another chance to fulfill what I lack

Your absence is hard for me to accept
Without you I am lonely and bereft
I cannot forget, I cannot replace
I don't want to give you some space

For we are like two peas in a pod
We belong together, "Thank God"
Our love is true, it's His boon
Please don't give up on it so soon!

What will it take, to be yours again?
Take me in your arms, end my pain
Let me relive our first embrace
The warmth of love as our hearts race....

You still love me, I know you do
Your love outweighs the hurt I gave you
Now that I have turned over a new leaf
There will be joy, no more grief

I promise I will take care
I promise I will be there
I promise I will even read your mind
I'll love you so much, they will call me blind

I pray, you shall be by my side forever
As soulmates that will be apart never
Like no other, my heart you have won
You will always be my...The One

The Night Shift Unheard Of

Image
I and my mate scurried through the empty hall. The light rustling of leaves and continuous chirping of the cricket were the only sounds that reverberated. No one was present. It was finally our time to take control of the night. The whole day the hustle and bustle of the men had made the place inaccessible to us. Tonight when finally the last person left the room, the lights turned off. This was our cue. The moon was kind to light our way. It was time for revenge. We didn’t have any particular grudge against the people of this company. We used to live in harmony with them. We made ourselves inconspicuous to make them feel comfortable. We never disturbed them when they were busy working. We even worked the night shifts, to keep the place bustling as they probably wanted. I always wondered if the work we did was appreciated or not. There was always this nagging doubt whether they even acknowledged our presence. But nevertheless, we kept working to our best. Every night our s

ELECTRONIC LOVE

Once upon a time in the land of Electronics, there lived a young woman called Resistor. She was jovial, amiable and the apple of everyone’s eyes. A just and fair person, she resisted all worldly temptations, leading a plain life.  She had no family except the Wires, who proclaimed to be her distant cousins. She had some doubts about it, but well, she loved them nevertheless. Like all young girls of her age, she was blossoming in her youth and was madly in love with her beloved-charming and magnetic Inductor.  She got introduced to Inductor who was this shy, weird and twisted friend of the Wires but surprisingly they hit it off like two peas in a pod! It was the best thing that ever happened to her. They complemented each other so well; people of Electronics even believed Inductor would wrap his coiled arms around her pointy figure, something that only a true lover would do! The people of Electronics had a simple livelihood and shared everything with each other. Every day they

Butterfly, Fly Away!

(Based on a real incident)  The morning was beginning on a rather dull note. I sat alone and had my breakfast amidst a huge crowd of my colleagues at the office cafeteria. I noticed one of my breakfast buddies sitting a few tables across from me. I tried to call him using my Apple watch, but like any technology, it was just the right amount of a tedious process for me to give up and continue munching alone. I stared outside the window at the bright sun rays lighting up the broad leaves of a tree and was soon lost in the thoughts of my early morning retrospection. With the last sip of my coffee that was now cold, I was finally done with another day's breakfast. Scuffling through the maze of tables and onwards to the washbasin, I chose to ignore everyone on my way out of the canteen. A solitary soul like me sometimes just wished for a quiet morning to start my day. Outside the food court, I felt a deep relief seep through me. The serenity of the surrounding trees and fresh breeze ove
