As I packed my bags,
Suitcases filled with cloths
And my modest belongings
My precious plants, framed pictures, and old souvenirs
All neatly boxed, wrapped and ready to be shipped
Tired, I sit on my couch
Thirstily I raise a bottle of water and gulp
My eyes flutter - could it be a sign?

I laid on my bed, closed my eyes,
And then slowly raised my eyelids
On the corner, next to the closet
I saw a white plastic bag
Neglected, wearied, dusty and torn
I stared at it for a moment
Heartbeat loud, paced faster
As if it is you in front of me
Stupid me!
Slowly to the corner, I picked - opened
You smile from the top of the piles
You have not changed
How can you? This was a mere picture
It does not change
Unlike you...
And me...
Then there was this other one, between friends
How that camera caught us stealing those glance
And remember the one in which you cried?
I kept on teasing you until you dried.
Those letters with few words
Inks faded, hardly readable
But amazingly, it's engraved,
In my soul
How is it possible?
I do not even love you anymore.

See!
I have.

Now I would close my pen
And again you will be history

phew!

Lemon,

Welcome and many thanks.
:)

I think everyone, every once in a while, especially while moving from one place to another everyone finds something that takes them back or reminds them of something that compels one to reminisce. It could be picture, old cloth, frames, gifts, letters, cards or anything else that has symbolic value. Is it only me or does others go thru the same experience of encountering those stuffs and dig thru the pile and just live the past for a moment?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
LOL...this reminded me of something...while I was packing to move... I dug thru the pile of letters, bills, etc, etc.... to my surprise... found 3 new credit cards..never been activated ..wasn't even taken outta the envelopes and was almost 2 years old!!!
Did this happen to anyone or m i the only careless person here?? :)

Another name added to my list, Vantage Point. People cannot pass by without noticing you. It amazes me with your swift flow. Always thought you were a guy, until John revealed it on the other thread.:)

Good one Indi !

Badarni maiya,

And you be careful, asti ko manche was eerie. :O
---------------------------------------------------

So you trashed his pics and brought the latest picture of John Abraihm ? :p I would not blame you. The guy is good - and I have seen/met him.

IndisGuise:)

keyboard ma pyatrak putruk katryak kutruk gardai, the end result was nice bhaecha!

good work!

Picture remained same and the words were engraved in your heart even ink faded away.

Friend, you are lucky.

Worst twist of kismet here.
Smile turned into condescending sneer.
Words are still same. What's in the word?
Humor feels like sarcasm.
Compliments were ploy.
Alas, prit prit rahinan.
Fate kept the ship in tact. Only complain - it's under the dark depth of the ocean.

Reddy! Thanks for dropping by.
Kahile kai jhukiyera jancha. Kyarnu maan nai ta ho :p

"Fate kept the ship in tact. Only complain - it's under the dark depth of the ocean."

NICE!
The gist is rather deep Sunny dev. Tu agar saath dene ka wada karo. . . does not work at times eh!
I would like to borrow that line for future reference if you would allow.
Thanks for dropping by.

Much appreciation!

Two strides and one backward
How long does it take to go too far?
Don't you sometimes wish that memories were like writings on the sand?
It's washed away as we march.

Those deep unmistakable engraves
So vivid - enthralling
Forming perfect shape
Your footprint and mine!
If,
In an instant
It is not there on the sand.
Why it is in my mind?

This is unreasonable. Not only you, but even the winds and tides are out to get me...

Else,

Why it takes an eon for the wind
And for those tides
To come and erase
What I have already forgotten...

- IndisGuise:)

Here comes another fine piece... touched my heart!!

well i am speechless! :)

damn kali nakali is one lucky girl.

Wonderful indi bro u r the best :)

"To come and erase
What I have already forgotten... "

How dare those tides and wind? They cherish your love with reverence. Nature would go against herself to sympathise with you. One day she would take you on a ride down memory lanes.Thou shalt have everyhting that you left behind. Your unforgotten chronicles and your love.

It's not me.YOU are the inspiration. he he.
