I went down to the crossroads, tried to flag a ride.
Nobody seemed to know me, everybody passed me by.

WINTER...



Winter..
It was yet another winter..
Winters made her lazy and happy..
She lay in bed, cuddled with her favourite pillow,
Snug into her favourite blanket, music, food, coffee, peace..
Yes she would love each day..
But this winter was unlike all others..
It was different..
Few things remained same while others, most, changed..
She sat there in her cozy bed scribbling random lines in her art pad..
She was searching..
Searching for her lost words..
Words, which deserted her and never came back as yet..
She wanted to write..
Needed to write..
Express herself at least to the art pad..
But no, all were gone..
She stared out of the window to the half-dark moon,
Which in more than one way sang the saga of her love..
They were almost identical..
Both were half hidden beneath darkness..
“Did you ever try so hard,
That your world fell apart,
Have you ever needed someone so bad? “
She hummed..
And she knew she did..
She needed him bad and even worse..
The desk in her room flaunted a picture of them back in their high school days..
She often searched for the old them within the lost time..
She searched her old self too..
Desperate to live that life again..
Which somehow got lost in the debris of her past..
But she was happy..
Happy because she no longer blamed herself..
Because they both knew by now it was not her..
Her winter was happy..
A different type of happy!!
Because she was guilt-free!!
