Love and Longing...

I walk pass them,kissing under the streetlight.
I sit across them in the bus, watching their intertwined fingers discovering one another.
I smile at them from across the road as they dance blissfully in each others arms.
I stand cold in the rain as I see them cuddling one another for warmth.


I sit on my bed in the night. Yellow lamp twinkling across my eyes.


I call some one back home..
he doesn't pick up...


My idle eye moves towards the green status blinking across the name of that someone I swore I would never reach out to...
My fingers type "hello" on his chat window
They flirt between the 'Enter' and 'Backspace'
My fingers type backspace on the "hello"




I call that one friend who I don't pretend to..
it goes to his unactivated voice mail


I call again... and again the friendly voice mail...


I open my accounting book..the lamp shines brighter across my eyes, this time hurting.
Its time to study!

Hello from Vancouver...

Three months have passed by since my last post and boy hasn't life changed drastically over these months.

I quit my job, left my home, left my beloved city, left India, left Ma, Baba and Toton.

Why u ask?

To go back to school I say. Do my MBA.

Truth?

Still searching....

What?

I'll pass...

Where is what I will answer. In Vancouver, Canada.
I live an old style dull green house. Wooden floors, big window, spacious rooms, a pink bathtub, a well stocked kitchen, dining table, television and free high speed internet , an unmaintained backyard with bees and wasps flying around, a storage room which stinks and a dirty patio to lounge and soak in the moody sunlight.


I love my new place!!!
