I woke up to an evening whose dusky hues of sinking sun had drawn very
gloomy patterns on the sky. The only date tree near my balcony stood
still with its green leaves stretching out. A looked around and found
myself in a “dry” concrete forest with no one but little children
shouting and playing- the only sound that broke the screaming silence. I
had never found the locality in such a mood!
After I returned back to my room I tried connecting to internet but unfortunately the network was down. Disappointed I flipped through my laptop’s content. I came across a photos folder upon opening which I found that it was my college folder. I saw it and closed the laptop and sat near the balcony. Feeble sun rays touched my face and that was what missing for the past to crop up in my mind. It grew and grew and finally engulfed me despite my resistance. After all, it was a full bunch of them and I was all alone!
I remembered my journey till that day. Long time yaar!! Really long!
Remembered the time....
when getting high meant on a swing , when drinking meant milk , when the only thing that could hurt were bruised knees, when the only things broken were your toys and when goodbyes only meant till tommorow…
I felt that the present moments are like colourful photos-some we simply flip across and some we frame it in our mind to cherish it for long time to come. But latter ones’ colour fades with time. It turns black and white. That’s what hurts! Wish I could hold on to those sweet memories. Wish I could relive them. But I forget that time has changed and so has people! We are all busy in our work and world. So little time we have got to go back and enjoy them.
I am waiting for the best to come yet. That’s the consolation I give me
