The Day I cried when I came out of my mother's womb, had spoken my first alphabet, crawled for the warmth of someone nearby...You were the one who embraced me like a friend. It was an unknown face, a strange gesture for someone like me who had never experienced the presence of a friend till then as I never realized you were there with me all along.
I grew up, fell down, went to school..compelled to stand out, be the best, but you never questioned why was I following it. Whom was I trying to satisfy. I smiled at you when tears were rolling down my cheeks, I knew you were the one playing prank all this while. I contemplated that I would take revenge but it always turned out to be an attraction rather than bitterness.
The Critic grew in me, the expectations grew in others, parents smiled and you Too...where was I lost amidst the ocean of responsibilities, was I even thinking about Your presence?
I was lost, was trying to find a New Me..You came to my Rescue..
The hug, the pat, the blessing, the kiss..it was all you..I worked with a zeal to run behind you, slept with a relief to wake up new..It was all You..
My tryst with you since I imbibed feelings have been unquestionable, In the form of friendships, competitors and acquaintances..You were still at the corner with a smirk fooling me with Different shapes, phases and intellect. You are dynamic and so am I. I am a mere shadow of your presence..rather omnipresence..
My indulgence and renunciation is carved in my heart and mind...an etching till I die..
No matter how static I might be at a phase of Life, I would still love the way you are, the undissolved you..the Mighty You..
