"What if we never meet again?" she asked. "This is the age of technology, not the medieval times. We will stay in touch," he said. "Yeah, we will be able to do everything but touch..." she feebly laughed. "We will meet," he said after a while. She raised her eyebrows quizically. "Maybe, we will meet, [...]

Fallen, Not Failed
Yes, we lost. We wish we had not. Yes, it's a big blow. We had never expected it to be so. Still, I say, We have fallen, not failed. Yes, it doesn't seem right. Maybe, we should've given a better fight. Yes, we see all those staring eyes, Those people thinking we were all lies. [...]
The Bed Calls
Sitting in the room's center, It makes a pretty picture. Nothing matters inside the room's walls, Once the bed calls. Know that weary day, When you've made too much hay? The body aches to hear The bed's call just near. That soft, sweet voice Asking to make a choice, To leave the day's work behind [...]
Lucky Charm
"Doctor, your husband is here," informed the peon. "What? Why is he?" Erica asked aloud, visibly surprised. She immediately glanced at her watch and thought, "His interview is in an hour.

Wonder
I often wonder What exactly it was That we shared, That we lived through. Was it just a phase That had to pass by? Or was it something more That we made to happen? When it was there, At times, it made no sense. At times, it was more Than all the sense in the [...]

Maybe, you will. Maybe, you won't. But till when do you want me To give you the benefit of doubt? Maybe, you are trying. Maybe, you are not. But till when do you want me To hang by around hoping? Maybe, your every word is true. Maybe, it's all a big lie. But till when [...]
Faith
Our having faith Doesn't make anything easier. On the contrary, It makes everything crazier. We believe in stuff We can't see or touch. We give our time and thoughts To it a bit much. We hope, We yearn, We beg, Till we learn. Having faith Is a two-way street, Where our desires and hard work [...]
Like My Mother
You are my friend, Not my mother. But why is it that so often You remind me of her? You are my age, Not my mother's. But why do your advices Seem like those from her? You are the one I tell What I definitely can't to my mother. But why is your being fine [...]
To be a Woman
So what is it like To be a woman? If anything, I'll be honest. It's tough, very very tough. To be a living, breathing person But to be eyed as Just another object for gratification Is tough. To have an avalanche of Emotions, opinions and plans But to keep them all bottled up Is tough. [...]
