Life
changes.Period. Change is the only constant.
11 months
have gone by. The experience has been daunting, yet in retrospect with every
day she has grown stronger. The other day she told me that there are certain
songs she listens that stir not her mind, but soul to pen down words. “I see you” is what I said in my heart to
her. She has underestimated her potential now and then. I’ve listened and felt
her through her tears and sobs. As I write these words, I wonder why magic only
exists in books. Miracles happen! That’s precisely why I know her the way I do,
the way she allows me to be with her even in my absence.
And on days when I see her smile through the
telephonic conversations, I feel her mellifluous voice touch the strings of
this heart. Days like these are at times a rarity; on other occasions they are
like the monsoon breeze, showering on me the sweetness of the wet mud. I’m
looking for a word to describe her. Sigh, it’s a task! She is life!
Yes! Let’s put it that way.
Today as
she gets up after every fall, my belief in her gets cemented more than before.
I’ve seen the world
Done it now
Had my cake now
As she
jumps happily walking besides me on the drenched road, her smile mesmerizes me,
just as it always does. The frailty she gives importance to, in her tough
times, seems to have evaporated in this moment, perhaps only to seep through
later. For now, her happiness radiates through the moon and lights up the
stars.
Today and
every night, even in distance, shall be ours.
