Between illusions and reality

A deep breath of the fresh green air
The dripping water from the washed leaves
Yearning to dissolve in the water below
The muddy lane darkened and clean
As I walk on
The same place I saw you
A hundred days back
Or maybe more
I kind of lost count
Replaying the scene over and over my head
Passing the place again today
Wishing that time froze right when you were there
But maybe it did
My smiles tell it all
You are like the rain
Cleansing the sad feeling
Bringing in promises of calm and peace
If it is never again to happen
I'll exist
You'll exist
Somehow this heart
Is pacified with just this..
For it means
You walk somewhere
Oblivious about me
I walk here
But the moment we had then is eternal
Maybe it is bliss
Or maybe its just called love
Pure and serene.

Love is a practical joke played by people on each other

It’s not about fairy tales and happy ends
It’s more about wants and needs
A fine demarcation you’d say
But the difference is real deep
If the question sounds familiar?
Try this-
Emotional attachment and dependency?
Same
My answer too
But na....
It’s a game
That the devils incarnate plays
Not love
Uh oh you are too emotional for this
Love is reserved
For the Elite
They can feign it
Wear it
Tear it
You just stick on to the rules and you’ll do well
Real well
For human is not the word
The word is the game
Love is a practical joke played by people on each other.
