Aura.. (part 4)


And then...
I realized that I had to let go of her.. I realized that she could never belong to me.

She was getting married and she had to leave. I knew she was happy, but I knew that she was sorry. She had never expressed what she felt for me, but I knew that a part of her always wanted to be with me. And now, she was sorry for having to let go. Her eyes spoke to me, and I, understood what she felt.
I felt her soft hands for the last time. I felt her lips brush against mine, and I felt her smell leave, as I watched her fade away from me..

She let go of me, before I could understand my feelings for her...

    But he was naive, unaware. Her absence was much more powerful then her presence.
    He was supposed to be strong and so he was. Atleast for the world, but inside he thought of her everytime he tried not to. He smelled her in the rain that no longer dripped his soul. He felt her in the dry air sitting on the balcony at night, the same balcony where they had sat for hours without speaking but they spoke a thousand emotions, as the silence then was blissful and the silence now hurt him.
    But then she was happy. And so was him.

    AURA was well-written...I definitely liked reading it and somehow I knew by part 2 that they weren't meant to be together...

    The guy was just learning some new lesson in life about love... Plus not all stories are happily-ever-after's na...Sometimes in love, you have to let go... :)

    P.S. thanks for dropping by at my blog and leaving a comment..I'm glad you liked it :) ♥

    Oh it ended already? It was flowing breezily. Good things and good times often have to pass. Alas, sigh.

    Nice read.
    I wonder what cards would have turned up had he told her about his feelings.

    Aura of her mesmerized me.. filled the room with fragrance of jasmine and than it all vaporizes in a mist of illusion. She was all gone.

    Love the dynamics :)

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...
