Relationships- A perception

In last one year more than once I have come across the realization that no matter how much I hold back from the world, I would somehow form some kind of a relationship with people out there which I wouldn’t want to let go off. I have also realized that those people whom I want to stay by my side forever would eventually leave me and that heartbreaks are just a chapter in my life.  We meet some people, share a good time and then part away from them having nothing much to remember  but then there are some who leave their footprints in our lives. Many a times we fail to receive the lessons some people teach us before leaving because we are just too much occupied by the grief of their absence. I see some of my friends falling in love every now and then and I have also seen them falling just too hard for someone who leaves them unexpectedly when things are just great in their relationship. I have not known their story but I have always liked to believe that it happened for the good a

The Dream

Someday I had dreamt of dancing With you, in a cold night when it’s raining To me, as it always seemed very romantic And the thought of the moment everlasting But fate seemed to have some other plans Separating us by distance Which gave me intolerable pain and tore me apart And made my dream vanish at a glance Now that it’s raining, I’m reminded of my distant dream Which  does not seem in any way romantic It reminds me of you and the lovely time we had In the world of love and its charm Today, I hate this rain As it brings back the realization that things could have been better If I had a little more patience and strength Then we still would have been together. A glimpse of Can I Have This Dance from HSM3 PS- this poem is 6 months old and I never thought I would actually post it but finally I did :P

The Cutting of my Long Hair... (Twice)

Probably most of my classmates would be thinking that I just got too inspired by Zitkala-sa’s story with the above title but I’m not. I actually had planned to write this a few months ago but never have my plans worked!  So you must be wondering what made me write this today, isn’t it? I was surfing TV channels a few days back when I came across a serial named ‘Ek hazaaron Mein Meri Behna hai’ where a girl named Maanvi finds her hair falling in clumps which I assume was because of the chemotherapy for her cancer and her thoughts made me write how it felt when such a thing actually happened to me. Before chemotherapy started If my brother isn’t wrong then I was diagnosed with Leukemia/blood cancer on 29 th May 2008- 8 days after I got admitted in the Q5North ward of ISSCE building at CMC, Vellore. Immediately I was put on chemotherapy. With the pain in my hands I was unable to comb my hair and it was my mom who would braid my hair every day. She started noticing the incre

When You and I were WE

I wonder how it used to be                 When you and I were we We walked we played we talked we shared                 And about the world we never cared We loved the moonlit road we took                   Hands in hands in whatever we went through Whenever you held me in your arms                 I just knew there’s no place so warm We fought we cried we teased each other                 But in the end we were always together And then you had to leave- the time was hard                 Our roads became completely apart Once upon a time best friends we were                 But just known strangers now we are I wonder who we used to be                 When you and I were we :-)
