The Wait

Disclaimer: This is regarding one of my recent experiences with love and the lack of it. This was one of the poems I wrote at that time. The person I wrote this for, I never got to know them. Although it doesn't have much bearing right now, it's a memory nonetheless.


Saw a person, a candidate
Told my heart, hold on, wait!
This may be a trap date
You know what happened that fall late

Said I will take a chance
Heart pounding at every glance
The picture of sophisticated grace
The smile that could melt the toughest face

I need to know you
But I better not haste
I've seen what happens
When on the other side of the gate

Now I wait as my heart pounds
Every time the phone rings the tone aloud
I don't know why they won't reply
I think I am being silly, ain't I?

Further, the journeys toward our destiny are the seedlings of our wilderness. Walking in the moonlight, humming silly Rajashri Productions' songs or laughing at idiotic things with your friends in a quiet village scene is one of the most unprecedented events in most of our lives. It marks the specialness of the night itself. The most recent experience of mine was in a small village of Ganjad, which left me spellbound and satisfied. It was during the Wall Art Festival 2014, organized by a Japanese NGO. There I ended up interacting with a host of new emotions. The village air, the Japanese enthusiasm, the beauty of the nature, the innocence of the children, the beautiful art, all conjoined into one big bag of lovely experiences. In my knowledge, we city dwellers care less about these exp...
