INFINITIES

"Can we have our infinity ?" , with a glimmer in her eyes she asked him . He remained silent , the silence was starting to devour their conversation and he didn't know how to tell her that there wasn't going to be an infinity . He shook his thoughts and returned to reality , and answered "Yes darling , we sure will " .Oblivious to his thoughts she jumped into hers , she saw her whole in front of her all thought through where as lying beside her , his mind was a minefield all he could think was of Claire , a freshman . He met Claire on the first day of her college , he was one of the second years' welcoming committee members' and was handing out brochures , and while doing so , Claire comes along and asks him a couple of questions , he doesn't remember what she asked , all he remembers was the curiosity in her eyes and the movement of her lips , that day itself he was stricken . And now here he was with his old 'love' in his arms hesitating to tell her the truth but he gathers around every shred of courage in him and told her .
She looked at him for sometime , just stared , she looked like her soul was leaving her body , every breath of oxygen was gushing and gradually her eyes teared up . She stood up , keeping her eye contact constant with him , it was like her eyes were saving his image in her brain for one last time , slowly she turned around and walked away .
That day she realized infinities are not forever .

THE TAX OF HAPPINESS

Happiness a wonderful drug which we are addicted to since birth . At first , life just throws happiness at you , luring you in , getting you addicted and just when you think that yes , i have reached a state of inner peace , life starts asking for tax .  Is the feeling of happiness enough to pay the tax ? what is the tax ? Well, its basically anything that makes you unhappy , from minor inconveniences to major fall throughs ,  All falls in the theory of yin and yang , the balance of life  . Without us realizing  it  life does balance it out . Each moment of happiness is equalized with each moment of pain , so we are kept neutralized .  Maybe life doesn't want anyone to be completely happy . What is complete happiness ? a brief moment which passes by in the blink of an eye. How many times can you handle the balance of life ?how many times can you pay the tax , till you decide not to smile at all?

RUN

I was running I looked around , it was a dimly lit street with sparse traffic I had my earphones on , so i was in my own universe I kept on running , for miles it seemed I am not an athletic person , but something was different today It felt like i was running from something , but couldn't tell what exactly it was Was i running from decisions ? ambition ? love ? commitment ?  With each leap i took I felt the communication with my soul was closing But i didn't stop I wanted to leave my soul behind And run far away My life flashed before me the first day of college , his smile , our first date And then our ridiculous fights , the break up night Suddenly a white light shined over me .. and something hit me i was on the road and then there was complete darkness.... I could feel my body come to absolute rest with excruciating pain......

A GLANCE

She walks by , and his heart skips a beat Her boyfriend comes along , and  the heartache returns  again Then in class, their eyes meet , She saw right through his eyes , his love , his pain At night , she was entangled in her thoughts He was only thinking of her dark purple eyes They didn't know they were bonded Days passed , Conversations started with a simple gesture The day came , When he standing in a black tuxedo And she was in Pearl white silhouette And again there eyes met It was meant to be ! They knew it And all it took was a glance .
