After Love Ends

Love is a beautiful illusional space to be in
Illusional because many things are assumed to be true the way one expects it to be
Expectations of what makes one believe that 'we are meant to be together'
Such assumptions are necessary as that's  where certain jargons of life called trust and faith eases into relationship

When expectations turns out to be untrue, aftermath begins
Aftermath of love has one common thing to share with then illusional time
Here one is living the same moments of love by recalling it
But the perception of once happiness being taken over by suffering

Suffering is very real, inexplicable, inevitable and traumatic
Such suffering cannot be summed up in words between two inverted commas or a book
I assume even great poets have failed to convey what it is like to suffer

When everything one desired for comes to an end, the hopelessness takes off for an unwarranted, undesired journey
An amusing thing about such journey is that, the tipping point of such journey could be just about anything
It could range from smell of a perfume or noticing a couple together or a family playing with their kids...it could be a song, a colour, women's pregnancy....etc

More the memories greater the suffering
It's fascinating how mind could connect just about anything to that one person
Every possible thing seems to be a constant reminder that 'we are not together anymore'

Suffering.... is a very possessive feeling
It never leaves the sufferer on words of hope by caring friends
No matter the number of shoulders one has around, it's the sufferer who has to suffer

You might have heard of delusion of reprieve
It works on a whole new level in the aftermath
Though the days are filled with hopelessness one still finds seesaw of hope brimming around...hope of reunification  with their loved one
As one of the dialogue from Shawshank Redemption goes, hope is a good thing....may be the best of things

Suffering is like a bridge connecting two sides
It's the only way to get to the other side
So the only ideal way is to accept the loss
Acceptance would not change things overnight
But it gives hope that sooner or later even this phase too shall pass one day
Eventually finding oneself on the other side

Few Years Later

This is few years after parting away Im seeing her again Standing across a distance accompanied by a stranger Putting on a beautiful smile I have wilfully dreamt of this dreadful moment for many a times Dreadful because of the varied outcome it entails One of the most dreadful outcome was in answering to myself, Will she recognise me??If not Such lack of recognition would define what I meant to her It would exactly mean what a crowd of people walking under the bridge mean to a  person standing over the bridge for a smoke As no crowd ever had any face, All they have is a very visible unidentified presence More importantly it says a smoker just doesn't give a damn It would be more than any human indignation possible, as it also reaffirms that you are not remembered Which would prove that my favourite song "you are not alone" by MJ which use to bring some respite at one among many moments of despair,  was not for me My heart started gathering pace with beati...

a journey to a spotless mind

"Congratulations, it's a Baby Girl", the doctor says, as he hands over the new born baby girl to her mother while the nurse straps the umbilical cord. Chapter 1: Dream Dreams are, in fact, manifestations of reality, it is the amount of mutation that reality undergoes in our mind that makes it appear far-fetched. It is an unusual dream, he thought. Asleep. Dreaming. Conscious. Like a fly on the wall, he was quietly experiencing and sneaking on his own dream. He was mind boggled by the visuals that his dream had to offer. The visuals were unlike anything that he would possibly experience in waking life.  The sky up above was deep bluish dark with a million stars twinkling, there was no sight of the moon. But the thing that he was boggled by, was the surreal fact that, even though the sky called it night, his surroundings were brightly lit as day. At a closer look he saw millions-and-millions of rainbow’ish molecular self-lit tiny bubbles floating in the surrounding and ligh...

Wonder

How many number of times a day do we look ourselves in the mirror?? And most of every such time we are posing just one question "Do I look alright??" expecting a confirmation from the reflection part of us that   "You look perfect" or "You look pretty alright" or "Not bad" We have been doing this day in and day out so much that its almost like an unnoticeable self centered routine part of us, among others things This evening I watched the trailer of a movie called "Wonder", which revolved around a kid called Auggie having a disfigured face due to multiple surgeries The trailer was indeed moving After watching the trailer I was forced to think as to "How many times do people having a disfigured face or people having marks on their faces look themselves in the mirror?? If they do even once a day or a week, do they expect a confirmation from the mirror as to how they look?? I'm not really sure, what reality is.... But I...
