THE CHAIR

THE CHAIR

They both loved their respective chairs. Hers was a teal blue wing chair while his was a revolving one that exuded power. She loved sitting on her chair reading and day dreaming, while he took important decisions sitting on it.

His love for his chair was so great that when she came in between him and...

“What does relief mean to you?” She asked.

*”A glass of cool water on a warm day.
*Melodious song on radio after a long interval.

*Not flunking again..
*Achieving targets at office now.

BLESSED

BLESSED

She looked at her gardener sitting against the wall in the garden under the shade of a mango tree. Deep in thoughts, he looked forlorn. She thought how blessed she was to have a house, a cozy bed and a cool room on this warm afternoon.

The silence woke her.
There was no sound or sight of traffic from her window.No chirping of birds either.
She called for help but none responded.The house looked eerily empty.

For her, the dreamcatcher became a reminder that there were many more...

CRACKED HEELS

CRACKED HEELS

When emotions run dry,
And there is lack of care,
Cracks may appear any where.
Her cracked heels too had a story,
They ran so deep,
That, they pained and bled,
And cried for desperate help.
A little nurture sometimes, let them breathe some life,
While, further neglect braced them for fight.
But she got...

GOOD-BYE

It was her last journey from home to the crematorium.He wasn’t there when she breathed her last.
As she was being put in a hearse van, he looked up at the balcony, where, she would always stand, wave and see him off.Surprisingly, she was there waving at him.
He looked at the body, and then...

He looked into her kohl rimmed eyes.Calm and serene but big and beautiful.

“How long do I have to wait till we meet again?”. He asked.

She kept smiling as if to say, “When the wait is indefinite, it doesn’t matter how many days, months or years it may be. What matters is, how passionately...

THE EYES HAVE IT

THE EYES HAVE IT

“Your hate for me is so evident”. She said.
“How do you know? I do everything for you”. He said.
“Yes you do, but your eyes have it”. She said.
“Why don’t you then stop being a burden on me and just get lost somewhere?” He spewed hatred.
“I will.The day my love for you...
