Dream Of You !
Sounds of the bittersweet melody,
Sounds of the bittersweet melody,
Resonates deep within my soul...
As I lay there hoping for warmth after the coldness has gone.
I know it ain't the case and I shouldn't expect,
As I lay there hoping for warmth after the coldness has gone.
I know it ain't the case and I shouldn't expect,
As I know I've blown all the chances that've come my way,
Yet there is a forlorn hope, that you truly didn't walk away....
You gave me hope, you gave me joy...
You were my light at the end of the night,
Time passed by and days too rolled
Yet there is a question that still looms...
Why did you teach me to walk again?
When you were to leave me crumpled all alone on my own....
It's not that I did not try,
A little more time is all that I needed
Or maybe just a bit of love would have done...
I was just too scared to confess and too insecure to lose,
Lost and confused is what I was back then,
Yet it was me who had to choose.
I dunno why I still love you?
When all I should do is try to forget you....
I'm not stalking nor am I insane,
But I just can't seem to let go...
Wearing a smile on my face and a frown in my heart...
I lead my life in thy memoirs....
-Fatima
When someone, makes you stand up, it seldom happens that he might want you to lean on him for the rest of the time. He wants you to walk, on your own, and be a support to someone else if need may be. Love, oh it can be so easy sometimes, specially when we're in the bottom of the bad times.
ReplyDeleteRemember, he wants you to laugh, and smile.

Thoughtful. Especially the lines "Why did you teach me to walk again? When you were to leave me crumpled all alone on my own...." Very deep in thoughts. Keep it up.

@ Blasphemous Aesthete: Never wanted to lean nor wanted to irritate in any form, maybe as time passes unknowingly took for granted but that was love that was taking the lead, it din want anything but at least just friendship in return !
ReplyDeleteBut he doesn't want me to crib so Im not gonna say anything, I was just trying to apologize for my nagging behavior !
Love can be your only hope when the dark times strike :)

never let a person to hurt u so much....i also know dat wat i am saying is mere bullshit...but trust me thats the words of experience.....
ReplyDelete"MOVE ON"
no 1 deserves so much love coz i do trust that vaisakhi must be right....
live life...\m/
@ R.D: Yeah I know that but hey, that person's never hurt me and I'm saying the truth....yeah at times misunderstandings have happened and there have been showdowns but does it not happen in every relationship...
ReplyDeleteAbout moving on..naa your not saying anything wrong, at the end but yet you can't forget someone even that is right...and I guess somewhere she is right but not everywhere! As no1 deserves so much love, no1 doesn't even deserve so much of hate,not exactly hate but something of that sort...
And hey I'm not leading a lonely cribbing life, I'm enjoying it and living every moment of it...things like these do not stop life! :)
Glad for your valuable comment!
Take Care,
Fatima
Beautiful verses, and nice thought...love your writing :)
ReplyDeleteBeautifully expressed!!......the first two lines itself take u deeper and deeper in to ur thought process ...n believe me everyone goes through this phase sooner or later...and dat is life rit...life loses its essence if such deep emotions are left unexperienced....so feel it...live it..its love after all....but one earnest thought - time is the best healer and eventually the frown in your heart will turn into a magnificent smile :):)

@ priya: I never though my emotions could even touch people, as in they would be able to relate to it..yeah they take one deeper into the soul!
ReplyDeleteYep its true we experience these emotions sooner or later in our life, and one can't shun them...coz what I feel is by shutting emotions your not getting stronger but weaker, some people might not agree with me and take me as a weak person but at least I'm strong enough to accept them rather than run away from it!
yeah time does heal all the wounds but the memories never leave your side! :)
Glad you understood it and liked it!

Letting go is indeed very difficult...He made you to walk again...cause he wants to live life without him too with all the strength which only love can give...
