Why Do I ?

A gentle breeze, that blows over my face
brings out the memories, of those forgotten days
Try as i might, so hard to ignore
the memories get stronger more, much more.

why do i feel that turmoil in my head
when i recollect all the things we had said
why do i feel that my heart still in pain
i thought it was over, but its started all over again.

why do i think about the promises, a future we had seen
dreams shattered to pieces, leaving me helpless within
why do i still imagine you standing by my side
wanting to reach out to you for help, to being my guide.

why do i still see you in my dreams
i cry out loud, with those ocassional screams
why do i still wish you were here
holding my hands, leaving me without fear.

why do i still imagine that life with you
the life we could have had, just me and you
why do i still want you back, so badly
even after knowing the reality, the fact sadly.



why do i keep counting the pieces of my broken heart
lying scattered on the floor, i kick them apart
why do i keep trying to feel the same love again
when the only feeling thats left inside me, is pain.

why do i keep putting on that fake mask
pretending to be happy, can be quite a task
why do i smile, hiding those tears in my eyes
end up living a life, filled full of lies.

why do i keep trying each day to push you away
failing miserably, i pull you back to stay
why do i keep blaming myself sometimes
trying to find a reason for separation, lost in times.

why do i keep searching for you everywhere
in everything, everyone here and there
why do i keep sinking in the emptiness of the soul
i feel lost, trying desperately to find my goal.

One thing i know, and i know thats for sure
for the pain i have, there is really no cure
The last day my life made any sense, my dear
was the last day i spent with you, when you were near...

The Last Time...

Akshay woke up. It was March 15 2011. Today was the day. The last day. He got ready and called up Zahira. It had become a routine for years now. But from tomorrow that routine was surely going to be interuptted.

"Hey...hi..what time would you be leaving for college today?", he asked.
Zahira was quite for sometime and replied,"The usual 8am bus from the junction bus-stop?".

Akshay and Zahira were in love right from the moment they had set their eyes on each other. Akshay hardly believed in love at first sight but somehow he was proved wrong. The moment he had laid his eyes on Zahira he knew she was the one. He felt something inside his heart which he had never felt before. It was magical. As years passed, they knew there could not be a single moment they couldnt live without each other.

It so happens in all love stories.You start to get so involved in one person that everything else just seems secondary or unimportant. You just think about that one person all day without getting bored. You just have to be there with that one person no matter what. And for those in love, they just cannot get enough of each other. From the time they open their eyes till the time they close it at night they are with that person. If not physically but mentally atleast. But today was different. Today was going to be the last day Akshay was going to feel it.

They met at their usual bus stop. The place they had been meeting for years now. College was going to end soon and so was their relationship. The usual crap which always happens in any relationship which tries to go beyond certain boundaries created by the society. The religion, caste, region and "oh wat will society say", and the "oh my parents are not agreeing to this" and the "oh we cannot continue this anymore coz my family wont approve". But what they had was true and pure and they knew it. They thought they could wither the storm together but somehow something happens and there is just not enough strenght left in the mind to do what is right for the relationship. So many other factors intervene and then it all comes to a point where
choices have to be made. Its like someone is giving you a choice which hand you need, the left or the right and you have to choose coz one of the hand is gonna be cut off forever. And it becomes hard to choose.

As they sat in the bus, quiet. Akshay kept looking at Zahira who was looking outside the window. Akshay took her hand in his hands and squeezed it tightly.



Zahira turned. Akshay could see her eyes were moist. "Dont leave me", Akshay said. But what he actually wanted to say was, " Please dont leave me, i love u so much. I cant live my life without u. It wont be the same. I dont think i can love anyone else again. Life will become a formality. Please i beg you dont leave me."
Zahira could not stop the tear she was holding back from not falling out from the eye. "I am sorry Akshay. Please understand", was all she said. But what she actually wanted to say was, " I am really really sorry baby. I know u love me and i love u too. A lot. But i really cant do anything. I am helpless. I have to choose my family over you. Please forgive me. I will always love you. I am so sorry please understand".

The rest of the journey to the college was spent holding hands without uttering a single word. But they both knew that they both must be having a billion thoughts running through their heads.

The last day of college was a drag. Exams were around the corner and many people were busy studying. They somehow managed to attend the classes but their mind was too occupied to get filled with anymore information. Their life was never going to be the same again. They both knew it. Akshay knew it. He wanted to be with Zahira for today as much as he could. With every passing hour, his heart beat faster. A few more hours more and it was going to be the end. But he didnt want to get dragged away in the negativity. He was trapped in his mind in two thoughts. One whether to show Zahira how much broken he was but then that would make her feel more bad and hurt. Or whether to act strong and mentally tough and practical in front of her and indirectly give her the strenght to endure this separation. The strength she so badly needed. Akshay was flipflopping through both emotions.

In the canteen, they were sitting and eating. And Akshay tried to be cool. Joked laughed, made Zahira laugh, even though inside he was breaking. This was probably the last time he would be sitting with her in the canteen. The place where they had such wonderful moments together. The long breaks, the bunking of lectures, that alone time they would spend just talking and today was going to be the last. And Akshay wanted to soak in as much of that "last time" as he could. But soon the day was over. It was time to head back home.

They ran and caught the bus. Last seat. Akshay knew he had to do something. He had to say something to stop her from going out of his life. But he just didnt know wat. He had tried everything possible over the past few months to coax her to come back to his life. But he had failed. He had showed her how much he loved her, how much he would do anything for her. She always thought Akshay was not serious about his life, but he proved her wrong by doing things and showing her things that made her realise that "yes, Akshay could be responsible". But Akshay just wished that he had done all this earlier so that this day would not have come.

As they got down from the bus, Akshay knew that it was time they would head str8 to home. But he wanted to spend some more time with her. It was as if he was hanging from a cliff and was going to fall down, just holding on to the small branches hanging there and with each passing minute the branches he was holding on to were getting weaker and he was slipping.

"Lets have tea", Akshay said.
Zahira too wanted to spend as much time as she could with him, so she promptly replied,"Sure"
As they sat in the restaurant, the usual one where again they had come many many times. They just didnt know wat to say. They knew this was going to be the last time. After spending the first few minutes just looking at each other without saying anything, Akshay knew he had to speak something. He had to try for the last time to convince her to think about the decision she was taking.

"Zahira....please dont leave me. Just think would you be able to live your life without me. How will i live my life. what will happen to me. what will i do when i open my eyes tomorrow morning, who will i call, who will i spend my day with and who will i wish and kiss goodnight before i sleep.? I will be left all alone. Please dont leave me.", Akshay blurted out in one go without holding back his tears.

Zahira was quiet. Akshay could see her eyes getting moist and red. But she was still being strong.
"Please Akshay dont start this again. Please understand", she replied with a firmness in her voice.

Akshay knew she was just as much heartbroken as he was. Its just that women tend to show they are more stronger sometimes. Akshay knew that he would only be hurting her more by his words. So he stopped.

"Ok I am sorry. Fine. Sorry. Lets just drink the tea and go home", Akshay forced smile.

As they were walking back home, they came to a junction which separated to two roads. Over the past few years it was a routine for them. Getting down from the bus, walking towards this junction, spending another 15-30min standing and talking, before saying the "goodbyes" and "i love you/ilove you too"s and then going home on separate roads, reaching home, only to call each other again and speak.

But today was different. As they stood there at the junction, they knew that not only were they heading out in different direction, so was their life. This was going to be last time they would be standing at the junction, talking and once they start walking in different directions, there was no turning back. Life was never going to be the same ever again.

It was late in the evening and it was getting dark already. As they stood there, quiet, silent. They knew that they didnt want to get separated. Zahira was trying so hard to be strong for the entire day but she just could not hold on to that strength anymore. She burst out like a baby crying out loud.

"I am so so sorry Akshay", she said sobbing away with her tears running down with full force as if someone opened the flaps of the dam of her eyes. Akshay pulled her towards himself and hugged her tightly. He could feel she too was hugging him even more tightly. Both of them wished that the moment had stopped at that time. They wished life had stopped. If they had a remote control to life, they would just want to pause it at that very moment when they were hugging.

.

Nothing else mattered. Nothing seemed important. It was just that moment. It was just them embracing each other. And they just didnt want to let go. But they had to. And they did a good 5min later.

"Its ok baby", Akshay said wiping her tears. "I will always love you forever", he said.
"Me too. You take care of yourself", Zahira replied as they walked away from each other.

"Akshay turned back to see her walking away. The last glimpse of her fading into the darkness. He turned around on the empty dark street walking towards his home. He could not believe that this moment was the last. The last time he would see the one he loved so much. The last time he would touch,feel,smell her. The last time he would feel a hug full of love. True love. He knew that deep inside his heart there would no one to replace Zahira. No one.
His eyes had dried up. There were not enough tears left in them now.

He had cried.
He had lived.
He had loved.

Life...Love...Life

Got this as a forward ......touched my heart.... felt this had to be shared.....

------------

Wake up whenever you like. Finish your morning routine and start cribbing about office. Finally after much deliberation we go to office and waste at least 10 good hours of life. Get paid for it too. Then comes the lovely evenings with friends, nemesis, time to open that bottle “Aaj last time bhai, kal se sab band. Health kharab hoti hai” Suddenly the clock stops moving, time flows by though, Its 2 AM before you know it, Now hungry, time for one more amazing night out. One more cherishable memory to be created with buddies. 5 AM it is now, time for sleep. Good morning again. Then comes weekend and I choose not to tell the world what we guys do on weekends. It’s our secret and I don’t want to be boycotted by guys by telling how our men community spend weekends and create histories.

Hour by hour, day by day, week by week……. We all live like this. Life has no inherent meaning; it’s just a ‘Go with the flow’. Look around. At least 70% people do the exact same things. Why waste thinking the trivialities like being happy, do something for society, do good for self. What is being happy by the way? Anyone?

But kid you not, one day, that one day, that one moment all changes. Life takes a paradigm shift. You meet her. You now know what an angel is. You realize that the blob who is supposed to just pump blood actually feels something. It starts truly beating at that precise moment. You fall in LOVE.

Love by far has no definition. Am sure Shakespeare to Obama, babies to old people have all tried to define Love but failed. Every individual has his own definition however skewed though. Maybe Love has itself never destined to be defined. Maybe it does really have no meaning. Maybe it is not an expression; it is a feel, a stimulus to life.

Comes a day you propose to your angel, you prepare for this day. Entire day you plan, prioritize, make words, buy flowers, behave like a total lunatic. Your final exams seemed like a breeze as compared to this day. Time comes, you meet her and Bang. You propose! The world stops. The only thing you hear is the wind. Then she says it too and you know you have won the world. Nothing matters now.

Life actually starts now, it has a meaning now. Your Love means everything to you now. The calls, the endless talk, the chitter chatter, the goofiness’. Weirdness sets in the moment the phone is kept down. Berserk goes the mind when you drop her at home. Her likes, dislikes, her life is all that matters now. How to keep her happy is the only motto now. One drop of tear and your heart actually stops. One frown on her face and you are on your knees. Your brain stops working, logic is out of window, world does not mean anything to you, all that matters is her. All the time there is this impish grin plastered on your face because all you do is think about her. You actually start enjoying the menial things in life and lest I forget Shopping!! Oh shopping!! Never was it so fun. Ten different shops, 100 different items, incessant trying, walking out with bags and forgetting the item which you had to buy in first place. Ice creams, chocolates, juice all the stuff which had no preference in your life suddenly become necessities. Your mom beat you black and blue to eat right, to pray, to be on time, to be responsible but you never listened. They come to you naturally when you are in Love. Each moment count; they etch themselves in your memory. You are happy. You redefined happiness. Non Lovers say thinking about someone 24*7 is an understatement, ask a Lover I say. Only a Lover can sense everything by just a Hello, just a tone, just a response to a message, just by a breath.

A quote from one of my friend. “Habits not changed timely turns into needs”

Till now you are in Love. The hell sent day when you have the first fight. You reach in a relationship now. Each moment of that dreaded time is filled with agony, despair. But it simmers down within minutes because you simply cannot stay mad. You actually start loving more after the first fight. With all the Love, fights actually complete a relationship. They never mean anything, they hurt a lot, they are forgotten in minutes. You realize that ‘I Am Fine’ is the first red flag and means you have to tread carefully. The world now starts noticing your disappearance but you cannot care a less. People ask, you lie through your teeth. This is one happiness that you cannot share with anyone. You won the world, you are in a relationship, you Love someone, and nothing can top that.

One day it all ends, breakups are never easy. Everybody has their own story. There is a rupture inside you. Your Heart which worked overtime, which was the only thing you used lately, cries. Crying has a new meaning. You don’t want to but you do. You don’t show it, hide your tears, smile with the world, stay happy but no matter how much you try you are not able to cheat yourself. You miss those moments. You miss her. You miss her presence, her talks, her smile, her tears…... Friend never had the answer to “What to do when Habits are changed into needs”. You discover songs actually mean something, start sympathizing with the composer because you are in his shoes now. You are in a sea now, waking up in morning again has no meaning; life again has lost its charm. Perpetual state of pain replaces the happiness. Time is the biggest healer and you will come out of it. Forget about her, stop thinking about her are the condolences that you constantly give to your heart. But they don’t work. Neither does call to your ex because all you play is a blame game which actually means nothing. It worsens the situation even more. You realize that your ‘Ifs’, ‘buts’, ‘maybes’ are the question you have to face alone.

But you do, one day you stop. You come back to the real world. You pick up where you left, Heart has a scar now, and it will be there all your life, but you move on. Logic takes over the internal fight with heart and guides you. The track being a rail track. One track being you and other track being dreams, wishes. They never meet but Life cannot move without both.

Never will I forget,
The beautiful time.
Shared the sunset,
and the sunrise.

I sinked in your eyes,
I ‘was warmed by your smile,
and the world was perfect,
but lasted just for a while.

Like The...

And.....i thought of you once again
You made me smile through all the pain
All those moments, the times we spent
How i loved them, how much they meant.

Like the wave from the ocean sweeping the shore
Hitting the rocks, making them sore
Memories of you keep rushing to my head
Can never forget them, even if i am dead.

Like the falling star to wish upon,
You were my luck, from dusk to dawn
In the tunnel of life, so dark and lonely,
You were my light, the one and only.

Like the shadow, which always stuck by the side
Your heart was the place where i wanted to reside.
In the game of life, you were my perfect move
For all happiness, you were the music to groove

Like the moon in the sky alone at night
You were the star which was never out of sight
You were the fire which kept me warm
You were the charm which kept me from harm

Like the sweet memories which can never be forgotten
Even if this life eventually becomes rotten
You were the beat which made my world dance
You were the eyes in which i wanted to glance

Like the pleasant wind which cooled me down
You were the smile on my face, I was the clown
You were the rose among all the flowers
In the summer heat, the first rain showers.

Like the soul made in heaven only for me
You were my life, you were everything to me
One thing is certain which i keep on repeating
You were the ONLY reason which kept my heart beating.

First Kiss...

Memories of you, come knocking on my heart.
Take me all the way, where our love did start.
The moment i saw u, i knew fate had a plan
To see you each day, filled me with elan.

Slowly but surely, in love we would fall
The look in our eyes, usually said it all
Talking for hours, we were getting obsessed
We were meant to be together, even before we confessed.

Then came the moment, we both were waiting for
The dancing and the holding hands, and the singing before.
The smell of your hair, the fragrance of your skin.
The touch of your hand made it all begin.

As we moved our faces, closer together
We knew we were made for each other
That kiss on your forehead, followed by the cheek
Made my heart skip a beat and my knees go weak.



That first gentle touch of the lips felt like heaven
You kissed me back and made it even
World had stopped, the moment had frozen
It was only you... my heart had chosen.

That moment, will always be remembered.
Even if death comes, to have my life murdered.
That instant of time, I shall never forget
Same would apply to you, I sure can bet.

Our Life may go on, Our Life may bend,
My love for you can never ever end.
You will always be someone close to my soul
Someone to live with, someone to die for.

Happy Anniversary !!!

Kris came home from work. Yet another hectic day at office was over. He threw his bag in the corner and just crashed on the bed. He looked at the digital clock hanging on the opposite wall. It displayed 9th Dec 2011 - 7pm. He closed his eyes.
"Its been an year", he thought as a drop of tear escaped through the corner of his eyes.

=======

"Hi Kris, Where have you reached?", an excited Jia asked holding her cellphone close to her ears. "Just 15min more. Will be home soon.", Kris replied.
"Ok baby. I am at grandma's place. Will also reach there in 15min. Come sooooooon. I will be waiting. Bye.", Jia said dropping the call.

It had been more than 3 years since Kris and Jia had been married. They had their intial couple fights, some out of jealousy, some out of thoughts-mismatches etc, but everytime they fought, one of them always made sure that the fight ended within a few hours. Relationships are like a rubberband. When its pulled from each end, its bound to break. One person always has to let go, loosen the hold for the rubberband to stay intact. And this is what Kris and Jia followed.

Kris reached home. Jia had not reached home yet. Today was something special. Today was there marriage anniversary. He carefully removed the box from his bag and placed it on top of the cupboard. The door bell rang. Kris opened the door and saw Jia enter closing the door behind her. Next moment, they were hugging each other tightly with Kris lifting Jia in the air.

"Happy Anniversary baby.", Jia said stealing a gentle peck on the lips.
"Happy Anniversary to you too.", Kris said hugging her even more tightly. After a nice long hug for a couple of minutes and changing into more comfortable clothes,

"Listen...I got to tell u something", Kris said sounding very serious.
"What happened baby? What is it?", Jia replied worried.
"Why dont you sit on the sofa?", Kris said putting his hand on her lowerback and gently moving her towards the sofa.
"Tell me baby, What happened?", Jia said getting even more worried now.
Kris made her comfortable on the sofa and sat on the ground near her legs.
"There is this woman....", he started slowly avoiding eye contact by putting his head down.
Jia's heart had started thumping faster and louder.
"Wat is it Kris? Tell me. You are scaring me now.", Jia said trying to get his attention.
"There is this woman I am falling in love with. She is so wonderful. She makes me feel so happy all the time. She makes me feel so alive. I just could not stop myself from falling for her. She is so charming. Her laughter makes me want to kiss her everytime.", Kris replied in one breath.

Jia was stunned at what she was hearing. It had been three years and not once had she even got a sniff of something about all this. How could her Kris do this to her? How could he cheat on her? Why? So many thoughts running through her head. Mixed emotions. Anger, Sadness, Her heart was shrinking with the pain, Tears were going to burst out anytime from her eyes. Today was their anniversary. Why did Kris had to choose this particular day to tell her? Her head was getting flooded with so many thoughts leaving her speechless. She just kept gazing as Kris spoke.

"Hold on a sec", Kris said walking towards the cupboard. He removed the box. Removed the content and handed it to her.
"Here. This is that woman.", Kris said looking at her.
Jia looked at what she was holding. It was a beautiful mirror held inside a wooden border with the names Kris and Jia carved on each side.
"Isnt she hot ?", Kris said winking. She heaved a sigh of relief, smiled and started hitting Kris who was on the floor laughing away. Jia sat on him as he lay on the ground and kissed him fiercly, then gently biting his lips.
"Aau..Ow..", Kris screamed gently.
"Hehe....I love you", Jia said looking in his eyes.
"I love you more", Kris replied hugging her as she slept on him.
"I got something else for you baby", Kris said breaking their five minutes of sleep.
"What is it? Dont you dare fool me again", Jia replied giving him a fake angry look.
"Haha...no..get off me, sit down and turn around.", Kris said.
He then removed a black satin cloth, and tied it around her eyes from behind.
"What are you doing", Jia replied excited. "SShhhhh.......Just be quiet",Kris whispered in her ears.
He then removed a small box from his pocket and removed a diamond necklace. He sat behind her, slowly moved her hair away to expose her bare neck, put the necklace around it and kissed her hair. He then quickly removed the satin cloth from her eyes. Jia was extremely happy. She took the newly gifted mirror and looked at the necklace.
"WOWWW", she said and turned back to hug Kris.
"I love you soooo much Kris", she said looking at him with extreme love in her eyes.
Kris smiled and said, "Promise me, you will never leave me".
"I am yours baby. Always yours.", Jia replied.

===========

Kris opened his eyes to hear the phone ring. He looked at the time. It was 9pm. He had dozed off for couple of hours.

"Hello", Kris said.
"Hey buddy, what ya doing?". It was Raj, his office colleague on the other line.
"To be honest....i was sleeping!", Kris replied.
"Oh.. Hey...I am throwing this party tonight. Want to join for a drink?", Raj said.
Kris thought for a moment and replied," Uhhh .. Not today Raj, not feeling too good".
"Oh ok...no probs buddy... catchya tomo at work.", said Raj cutting the call.

Kris sat there on the bed just staring at the empty space. He was feeling hungry but somehow had no mood to eat. He got up from his bed and went to wash his face. Drank a glass of water and then switched on the TV.

The TV series LOST was going on.
He heard the exchange of dialgoues.

"just because two people...love each other...dosent mean they are meant to be together."
"Why are you doing this?"
"If i never meet u.......then i will never have to loose u."

Kris changed the channel.
Some romantic movie was going on.

"Don’t you love me?”
“More than yesterday and less than tomorrow".

He switched off the TV and went to have a smoke in the balcony.
He remembered telling to his friend one day who had asked him,"why do u smoke buddy?".
"Well...cigarette...helps me to avoid loneliness ...i think ..someone is burning like me too....", he had replied with a wink.

As he lit the cigarette, he heard a lady scream,
"Jia.....Jia beti come here."
It was some random mother shouting at her baby daughter in the garden below.
He looked up at the sky and smiled smurkishly nodding his head sideways.


Why was life being so cruel to him? The more he tried to get over Jia and her memories, somehow or the other fate or destiny or whatever it is that defines our lives kept reminding him all the more. What had happened just now was not the only instant. He was having such small "encounters" or sightings or some bloody damn thing which kept bringing her memories back again and again for the whole year now.
It was as if someone, so called God had stabbed him, killed him and was stabbing him again and again just for the fun of it.

He lit another cigarette and just stood looking at the night sky. His mind was trying to force him to think about nothing, but his heart always did the opposite.

Jia had left him. Somehow things had not worked out between them as a couple. Then why was he still thinking about her. He knew was that even though he could somehow manage to "exist without her, he could never really "live". He would still like to see her again, to say what he never had said when they were together. To hold her hand and tell her that he loved her very much, more than himself, more than anything or anyone else in this world and he was ready to do anything to make it work. At times, he hoped that one day Jia would just show up at his door and hug him again and never leave him again.

He remembered reading a book - The Zahir, where it was mentioned that each individual in this world has that one person who is made for him/her, that one soul-mate, that Zahir. Kris had understood that no matter what he did to keep himself from not thinking about Jia, no matter how distracted he kept his mind, his Zahir always won, it was always there, making him think, “I wish she was here with me.” His Zahir was Jia.

He knew he had made some mistakes and may make even more, but it was Jia and only Jia he adored. Funny as it may sound, though Jia was so far away from him, she was getting more closer to his heart each passing day. And this was never going to change.
He was going to love her forever.

Kris threw the cigarette bud away.
Went inside his room, lifted the frame holding Jia's pic from his table.
"Happy Anniversary baby!", he said kissing the forehead.

He picked up his cell, called Raj.
"Hey buddy, change of plans. So....Where is your party?", Kris said forcing a smile.

Nadaan Parindey

This song is dedicated to all those people who have experienced True Love in their life. To those who had held their loved ones in their arms one day in one year and perhaps have no one to hold on to on same day next year. To those who rememeber each and every moment spend with loved ones as if it were like yesterday. That touch. That surprises. That romance. That love. That moment.
If they have their love along with them, well and good.
If they dont, then also they should be happy to have had that chance once.

In the movie ROCKSTAR, love is defined in a very strange but so real way.
The movie starts with a dialouge with Ranbir saying in hindi...translated below..
“Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing there is a field. I'll meet you there".

These are written by a poet named Rumi. These look like simple lines but they have such a deep meaning which only two people in real love can understand. Love which is transcedental. Love which is heavenly. Love which comes from the soul.

Also would like to quote another line from the same poet as below.
“Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.”

Such a simple line but with such a deep meaning. No matter what this society will do. No matter what this life, this luck, this destiny will do, two people in "Real" love can never ever be separated. That "Real" Love is above all these things and will remain FOREVER.

Rockstar Movie ....MUST watch. !!

Now coming to my fav song these days....Nadaan Parindey. Parindey means Birds. The song depicts a situation comparing the loved one to a bird and asking it to come back to its home.
The situation in the movie when the song is played and the way it has been picturised is so lovely that it gives me goosebumps each time i see it.
