PARI

"Why are you doing this when you can have your own?",Mom asked furiously,almost in tears.

"Atleast think about the society.They will raise so many questions to you and your parents.They'll doubt your...",an acquaintance was trying hard to convince.

"You people are hurting your parents.They had so many aspirations from you.Don't you have any obligations towards them?", another fellow added.

"Apna khoon apna hi hota hai.No one else can take his place.Do whatever you want!",Papa asserted loudly and left the room.

But the couple was adamant to their decision.Nothing in the world could bent them.

They said "Sorry Ma,Sorry Paa.But we are really not bothered what others would think of us.We are not doing anything wrong.And If you want we'll have our own too.But this has to be done.Today and Now.We have promised her."
-------------------------------------------------------------------
They took the keys and hurried to the place.

"Hello sister!"

"Hello Sir.Hello Ma'am.All formalities have been done.You just have to sign here.",the matron said.

"Yeah.we'll just do."

"Congratulations to both of you.God bless you people."

"Thank you sister!"

They both looked at each other.Happiness,love,contentment and proud tinged vividly in their eyes.They distributed sweets to everyone out there.

He kissed her on her forehead for the very first time and hugged her tight.(Ah!Truly Divine. An awesome feeling).

The three of them then headed towards the temple on the opposite side of the road, to seek blessings of the Almighty.

The papers on the dashboard of the car were gleaming brightly on that full moon night.They read,

Love unconfessed............

Dearest You,

The YOUness in YOU

I Appreciate

I Admire

I Respect

and I ..........

II.
Though I could ne'er see
laughter ripples on your face
or hug you tight
when you really need one.
Though I could ne'er
wipe off  tears
rolling down your cheeks
or hold them in my palm
as precious pearls.
Though I could ne'er
walk with you at a starlit night,
holding hands,silently
taking all your fears away.
Though I could ne'er arrange
surprises on  your birthdays
or celebrate life
unoccasionally.
Though I could ne'er
lend you my ears
or offer my shoulders
in moments of pain.
Though I could ne'er give you
'a gift' which you like
just to see a smile
on your tired face.
Though I could ne'er hold
tears of joy
for your small little
accomplishments.

Though I could ne'er tell you

that ' I LIKE YOU'

coz I understand  you deserve much better

why to bother you,unnecessarily .

Still  O Sweetest heart
I care for you

from a distance though!!!

for
The YOUness in YOU

I Appreciate

I Admire

I Respect

III.

I do not exactly remember
when did it all began
you became a priority
in my daily prayers.
To every cheerful face
I come across
'Smiling with a spark'
I feel you!
Whenever I espy
a shooting star
I just wish
for your wish come true.
My dreams often
bless your dreams
with my soul sincerely yearning
for your happiness and esteem.
Whenvever I turn the pages of newspaper
to read horoscope of the day
it's your's always
which I read first!
I do not know why
but when it comes to judging people
guys particularly,I compare them to thee
and unsurprisingly none matches up!
That day also
I believed in your dreams
today also I assert
You'll be a great man one day!
Whenever I'm sad
and cry my heart out
I know you can never be there
Still,I only think of you!

I often convey my love

to butterflies and sparrows and winds

I hope they carry it to you

unknowingly though!

for
The YOUness in YOU

I Appreciate

I Admire

I Respect

and I love!

IV:
I won't measure my love-true love,deep love,mad love ,selfless love etc etc.It's unimportant.Let it be just LOVE for the sake of LOVE.I just wish for your happiness,that you live all your dreams.

I'll never confess it to you.Never.Few things are best when left unsaid.I comprehend you have a lot of aspirations from yourself ,from life where I somehow do not fit in. You truly deserve an angel who'll love you heart and soul and will get your love in return.And for this I have no regrets, no grievances towards God,towards you,towards me or any other.It's destiny,I apprehend.As I said your happiness is of paramount importance to me . May you get the best in life!

Another important thing here is that I LOVED.Yes surprisingly ,I loved someone and I'm happy about it and the best thing is that I Loved YOU.(Hey would you believe that ever since I have known you I did not have had even a crush on anybody else?Forget about attraction ,lol :P.It's been some six years.Long time,no?).Yeah it's like that.

My love is not the greatest of all.It might not grow with time for togetherness is essential for that.But my love for you will remain as it is.You'll always be in my thoughts and prayers,and that's a promise.Love(for me) was tough.Unloving is tougher,infact unachievable.

The fact is that I do not deserve YOU.

The truth is that I'll always love you,from a distance though!!

Take care.

Sigh!

Could ne'er be Yours

The Best Secret

"You always know who in the world you are praying for,but you never know who in the world is PRAYING FOR YOU(secretly)."

Isn't it the BESTEST SECRET?So BEAUTIFUL and so PURE.

It really feels so good naa when all of a sudden you come to know that someone REMEMBERS you,someone CARES for you,someone GIVES you his/her TIME(the only precious thing) .And above all ,that, someone PRAYS for your well-being ,for your happiness,for your dreams-come-true ,selflessly and secretively ,may be in lieu of his/her own desires.I reckon this to be one of the best aspect's of  life.The happiness bestowed thereby lingers and is preeminent.One seems to be overwhelmingly blessed when touched by such kindness.

Helping hands and praying lips-What else one craves for?

That 'someone' may be your friend,your sibling,your love,your neighbor,your servant ,the one you 'dislike' or the one whose existence you aren't aware of .It can be anyone anywhere.So friends,

                   keep this beautiful feeling in view,

                  someone is always thinking good of you. :)
