The Unfinished Chapter - 76

Chapter 76


The icy path is white, pristine, pure
She walked, ever so slowly on the jagged pathway that ripped her delicate bare feet
Her slight, solitary figure was but an apparition in a land bathed in white
Silence
Was there a call?
Silence

Her bleeding feet left behind a maze of designs in red
Little pathways that were the only proof of her physical journey
She left nothing behind
She let parts of herself dissolve, dissolve in God’s beautiful nature
She left her kisses to the breeze, her hugs to the trees, her pain to the seas
Her heart, her soul, her spirit, they walked with her... for now

Time was irrelevant
Seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades
Everything tangible was measured, all things intangible are immortal, are forever
She put her delicate hand on her heart
It was beating, still
Icy glass blades continued to decorate the path ahead, she continued her solitary walk in pain, with pain

There were flowers too on this road
They were enveloped in ice
She bent, brushed a seemingly dead flower
It came to life, bringing colours of love to a landscape bathed in white
She smiled a little
Cupped her tiny flower in the palm of her hands, walked on

Tired, she was tired
She found a quiet corner in the far distance, she sat down, rested
She brought her knees to her chest, lay her head on her knees, hugged her slender frame
She looked at the path she’d walked thus far
The icy road was marked in her bright red blood
Some of it from her feet, some of it from her soul, most of it from her bleeding heart, which cried tears of blood

She closed her eyes, petted her heart, she was is, she is was...

The Unfinished Chapter - 85

Chapter 85

He wasn't here, and yet, he was
She could feel his presence, intangible, mysterious
He almost teased her, quite like a game of hide-n-seek
Her arms ached, ached to hold him again
She noticed autumn leaves dancing in the quiet breeze
She was dancing to the dance of life herself
She was flying now, without wings
Walking without feet
Her love gave her the strength to do that, and so much more
She closed her eyes, opened her heart and sent him a never-ending wave of love
She'd never loathe her tears
In each drop was a love so pure, a passion so great
That it transcended lifetimes, time, space, everything...
She could almost hear his heart beat, listen to his breath, look into his eyes
Eyes that told her a story so deep that his lips needn't say the words
His silence said it all
She was listening
She hugged him tight, held him
He wasn't in her arms right now, and yet, he was, he is
He is...

11/2/2010: I LOVE

  1. Batman.
  2. The beautiful peace and quiet that seems to be hugging Bombay right now.
  3. That I can stay silent even when I am with my closest friends and my butterflies understand completely.
  4. That I can close my eyes and switch off.
  5. Watching butterflies flutter, listening to chirping birds and wtaching doggies try and catch their own tail. :)
  6. A dolphin's call.
  7. The sound of a waterfall as it makes its way down the mountain.
  8. Giving the people I love the mostest spiritual hugs.
  9. Making up words like "darlingest" and "mostest" to enforce how much I really care about someone.
  10. Seeing a darling baby take his/her first steps...one of God's most precious miracles.
  11. That Praj always, always ends our g-talk chats with a smiley. :)
  12. That Liz, Praj, Such and me are like peas in a pod, but still different.
  13. Saving some of the darlingest messages in my cellphone.
  14. That I can close my eyes and send the people I love the mostest spiritual huggies and kissies. They are the darlingest people with beautiful souls.
