Anushka Bhartiya

There comes a day in life, when you have said all that you ever wanted to say to someone. But that someone is still waiting. Waiting for words to come out. And that__ when you know there is nothing much left. It is time to say goodbye.

She wanted to hurt him. Hurt him bad. But she knew that his heart would forgive. So she hurt his mind. The mind that doesn't forgive. It remembers, for a very long time. And that's what she wanted. For him to remember always. What it means to get hurt, experience pain inside the brain, all the time. This would ensure that he never ever forgets her. The heart was weak, it always had room for forgiveness. But the mind did not.

Is it possible to love forever, she asked. Don't you know what forever means? It means now, he answered. Oh then we are in love forever.

It pierced the heart...and there was blood all around...soaking his hands in it, he tried wiping her tears...

The eyes can often lie, not see what is essential. But the heart, never.

When love is not madness, it is not love...

Just when she was about to reemerge from the depths of her sorrows, someone shook her again. This wasn't the jolt that usually awakens the senses. This was what it takes to finally rise over all that is petty about this world. Jealousy, insecurity and of course, betrayal. Awakening the senses was meant for another day, another time.
