"Etched onto the sands of time............

(al in a night's work!!)"

A wistful feeling runs through me as i try and wipe
off the mist on this window to my then new life; was
a new world
filled with exciting possibilities... COLLEGE!
Its all so clear
and yet very hazy...

" those times were wild,
when i blinked as a child...
a tinge of innocence lost,
a grain of sweetness now dust...

" fresh faces shined in my view,
those that i hardly knew...
hugged by a coziness untold,
i gazed at a million threads unfold...


And so much has come to pass in all this while. Have
erred and winced many a times; how many misgivings
we have often nurtured about each other and probably
still do...

" now enveloped by gloom,
for solace, there seems to be no room...
some wounds must still be sore,
reminds me of all i've done, in years four...

" wonder if it al still matters to you now,
wonder if i'll ever rise above...
to feel the same again,
simple and free... with no refrain...


It still has been such a wonderous voyage... Four years
felt like such a short span of time... I'll never find anyone
like you two! As a phase of our lives comes to a close,,
jus....

" cant push these moist beads away,
was holdin up for long, i'd say...
memories flipping through my head,
finally... am all clouded!

" may be its the late hour,
may be its the lemon tea, so sour...
may be its the fear that i'll fall,
may be its the jitters of unavoidable

separation, afterall...!

yours,
shil......

PS: So damn drunk (on 6 cups of tea)...! It churned
out somethin from within me.. A poem (well almost..)!!
Just felt it and put it down.....
