The Wind Carries My Message


Wind o' wind, carry my message, will you?
Blow hard, blow fast, 
Stop when you find him,
Then hit him hard, and harder,
Now, calm down a little, and some more,
Relax around him, engulf him in your force,
Hush now, settle down quietly,
Let him breathe.
Let him breathe the scent you carry,
The scent that will remind him
Of the beads of sweat that covered
Our entwined bodies at 2 o'clock that night. 
Oh wind, carry the scent of that night,
And of lavender candles that burned 
To keep us warm until we fell asleep,
Asleep on the cold floor of my room
Dear Wind, remind him of the heat
From our bodies, kissing the floor beneath.
And the shivers that ran through me,
The goosebumps that rose on his skin,
The feeling of him against me,
His lips against mine, 
Oh wind, remind him, tell him, hurt him
Just like he hurt me.
Touch his soul and leave him, just like he left me.
Then hold him tight and hit him again,
Now, whisper the message in his ear,
"I miss you", and he'll know then, that
The sender of the message is me

Different Kinds of People Seen During Diwali

Diwali is ,indeed, synonymous with togetherness, bonding and festivity. The most-awaited festival is here and I can already feel the air spell happiness. A lot has changed with time. However, some things have remained constant throughout, and this year is no exception. Coming to people, one can be sure to find few of the following kinds in their vicinity. Just look around, and you can spot them with no difficulty. After all, such are the people who make sure to keep alive the essence of Diwali. Watch out, you could be one of them, too! ;) 1. Card-Players Black jack, flash, bluff? Hello Mr. Know-It-All. Such are the people whose nights and money are spent playing endless card games. Seems like Diwali is the perfect time to get out that new pack of cards you'd been saving since a whole year. For the players, 'up and down' has more to do with monetary profit and loss than with intercourse positions.    2. Home-ridden creatures This particular kind is voluntarily home r...

What's in a Date?

Okay so today we celebrate the last sequential date in this century, 11-12-13.  It's the last date with consecutive numbers to appear in the 21st century, but why the hype?  Did they forget that every damn date in this century will never repeat itself?  Or is this just another money-minting criteria adopted by hotels, hospitals, bars, wedding planners and pandit ji's to brainwash people's minds and inform them about the importance of this one date?  Why the craze to tie the knot on this so called 'auspicious' date? Why the craze to deliver babies on this day? Are you going to tell me that its a 'lucky' day and will make your marriage last a year more than mine? Or your baby will be born an actor or IITian? Or probably that the food at restaurants will be better today?  Hell, no. If love doesn't see person or time, why does it see dates? Ladies, If babies born on other dates can become Shahrukh Khan and Sachin Tendulkar, why the fuss about paining your bo...

..I Let Him Go

Tonight is no different.   I twist and turn in bed like every other night.   The events of the day run a recap through my subconscious mind.   Nothing special. I twist and turn as grief takes over. One quiet sob. And another. And another. Before I know it, my sister is awake, holding me tight, asking me what's wrong. She's 15. How is she supposed to understand the so-called problems of adulthood? What do I explain her?   So she just holds me close while I cry the heck out of me.   It's not the kind of crying that babies do. It's not the cry for milk or for a toy or for a video game, nor is it for a dress or a party.   It's over a guy. A lost love.   No, he wasn't my boyfriend and he never could be. There are more kinds of love that can blossom between a guy and a girl, than you think. This was one of those different kinds.   Simply because we were different - together and individually. I don't know why I cry over him but I ...
