Mem()r!es ()f M!dn!ght


We've both known each other since years,
We laughed and cried together when we were small.
Remember how we used to hide under the beds?
And talk in there for hours.

Middle school was fun.
We shared all the classes.
Remember how everybody used to tease us?
And then you avoided me for days.

I was so scared in high school.
It was like a nightmare for me.
You held on to me, became my prom partner.
Even though I was not at all popular, unlike you.

I cried a lot when I had to go away to university.
When I hugged you goodbye, it felt as if I was going to die.
The look of your face, the tears of my eyes...
I couldn't believe that I wasn't going to see you for years.

Remember how we used to talk till late nights?
And when the clock struck twelve...it was time for me to go to bed.
I never slept.
I cried thinking about you.
About us!

You were there for me when I needed you.
Always made me feel good.
You were my best friend...
And I didn't realize when my feelings for you changed.

I was glad when I was going home for my holidays.
I couldn't wait to jump into your arms.
Couldn't wait to see your face.
Couldn't wait to be with you!

But.
When I arrived...i realized that things had changed.
There was someone else who had filled my empty place.
I couldn't cry. Nor could I be happy.
I decided to keep quite and not spoil things between you and me.

So here I am, back to Uni.
It's night and you haven't called tonight.
I feel lonely and scared.
But this time you are not here to dry my tears.

I want to feel you hold my hands like before.
I need you to tell me it's all right.
I know you cannot be mine now.
So,
It's just me and my memories of midnight!

I have my results on Monday. That's like umm...tomorrow cause it's already past midnight. Guys, pray that I pass. Lol. I hope I pass!
Goodnight! Sweet dreams!

    This is very prose-like. Umm, yea, that age, those moments are probably misunderstood or expected to lead to something big. But, it sometimes does not. I get the point here. But, I am tempted to type (after reading your old posts), you could polish this one!!! You definitely could.

    That was a wonderful expression of something changing. Nothing is constant dear, we gotta adapt to changes and everything that comes our way, thats Life! Expectations are our biggest weakness, Never expect but be ready to give and forget. :)

Tripping Cause I'm Clumsy :)

picture from:  here They say that we suddenly grow up at a point, without realizing.  We suddenly stop doing what we always have been doing and we take a break to think. And then we change the gears and let go of all the stupidity.  We may not like it in the beginning, but this break is required. We need to sort ourselves out, and I think that this is what I’ve been trying to do from the past few weeks. I’ve heard that college changes people. Tomboyish girls start to wear make up, and the nerds start to bunk classes, while the desperate ones are all over each other. No hard feelings, but this is what happens. I’ve been thinking about which category I lie in. And honestly, I’m clueless. While people around me are too busy attending some party or the other, or while uploading pictures on  social networking sites, I’ve been so lost because none of these things seem appealing to me any longer. I don’t find the need of going to the washroom eve...

"Trust me. There's no way that I can sing in front of you." "Well, I don't care. You just have to!" I thrust the guitar into his hands and sit down in front of him. "You won't ever give up now, will you?" He sighs as he strikes a chord. "We got this afternoon You've got this room for two.." His eyes are shut, his voice mesmerizing. Soft..calm..just beautiful. His fingers gently move, the rhythm comes to him so naturally. I just sit and listen. And that's all I want to do. "You were wonderful." I say, once he stops. He laughs. "Your body is my wonderland." He kisses my shoulders gently. "You should really try for the competition, you know. You'll get through." "You don't get it Lucy. I can't sing in front of people." He snaps. "Just close your eyes and think that you're singing to me. Do it for me. Please.." I look into his eyes and hold on to his gaze. "Th...

Unfaithful

“I don’t wanna hurt him anymore, I don’t wanna take away his life... I don’t wanna be a murderer.” I lie on the crumpled bed sheet, alone. Naked. I close my eyes, tighten my fist, and try to stop the guilt from growing, from eating me up. It wasn’t the first time. I should have been accustomed to all of this by now, but no I’m not. I don’t think I ever will…yet I continue to do so, and yet I lie in his arms, and crave for him when he’s not around. The pictures appear in my mind. Flash backs. They always do after he leaves. And I always try to shut them from my mind. But it’s next to impossible. No, I don’t love him. I already have a lover, and he? He already has a family. It’s just the craving, the desperation, and the intense longing of being loved. He caresses me, he’s firm, strong, and I easily melt inside him. When he’s besides me, he is all I see. I don’t think about anything else. The world just seems beautiful when we lie next to each other, exhausted. And then, he leaves...
