Love Bi Polar

I am in love. In love with a boy who looks like an angel. A boy for whom I waited so long to find. He makes me laugh, he makes me cry. He makes me feel like a woman, he makes me feel like a stranger. He says he loves me, and then he says that he wants to be free. He says he wants to be with me every moment, and he stays away when he wants to.

My heart heaves and cries for long hours in the nights. It feels like my heart has been torn out. I feel so alone though he is so near. He makes me want to be the best I could ever be, but he also makes me green with envy. The feelings I have for him are so strong, but sometimes I feel they are all wrong. I wait all day long just to hear his voice, but the call never comes. We fight like we are a perfect miss match, but when I see him smile I don't remember anything else.

It is strange to feel such complicated feelings all for one person. Is he a devil disguised as an angel? Or an angel forced to be evil? He tortures me so much with his words. He makes me want to die and get away from all things nice. But when I hear his loving voice, I feel like I have been brought back from the dead. I don't want to feel so strongly for this boy who tortures me so, but I have never been in love like this.

He doesnt seem to see the love I have for him. Maybe he knows how I feel but cannot be as loving. Maybe he loves me in his own way. But if he does love me, why does it hurt so much? All I want is for him to hold me close till I feel comforted. For him to tell me what he really feels about me. For him to tell me his dreams. For him to look into my eyes and tell me that I make him happy. How hard is it for him to love me?

He says he does, so he must be in love with me. But sometimes he says that people can fake a whole relationship! It scares me because I too am a surviver of a broken heart, and the pain of another is going to be greater. Then what do I do with this boy? I love him very much, but he takes me for granted.

He suddenly shows that he loves me, but he does not ask how my day was. He does not let me finish my sentences. When I try to tell him how painful it is when he treats me this way, this boy does not seem to understand. Yet I go on loving him. The pain keeps growing in my heart. All I want from him is for him to love me back, like I was the only thing that ever mattered to him. I am never his priority. I come second. But he says he wants to grow old with me? Can I make him see that I need love too? That I cannot keep giving all the time? That I too need to be taken care off? That I too need the attention?

Maybe I do not understand this love so bi polar. Maybe this love too will end dustily on a shelf one day. But this boy, with the soft brown eyes and a charming smile, will always be a part of me, a part of my life.

Though it looked like sort of a scribble but thoroughly enjoyed the feelings present in those words...
Take care :)

Explicit

When people talk, do they always say what is on their mind? Or do they live in a fear that words once thrown, like stones, can create ripples in the water? I have been thinking of how honest people actually are, when I got the news that honesty is a flexible term and can be moulded according to the situation or circumstance. As I rode my two Wheeler to office today, I looked around on the street and saw 'dishonest' people. Where are they going? What are they going to say next which may not be honest? I was infuriated at the thought that at some point of time I can also be 'dishonest'. So what is honesty? Should people be explicit with their feelings to be considered honest? A friend who comes dressed like a Fashion disaster wouldn't want to hear the words circulating in your head. So you say nice things to her like, oh what a lovely dress! But do you really mean it? Most often NO. Then are we being truthful? We two people fall in love, it is an amazing feeling. We...

It Happens Only Once?

I have touched love, tasted it, felt it, sensed it, and felt alive with it! Love has done the same to me too. Its funny, I have had many people ask me, what is Love? How do you know that it is Love? I wish I could tell them, there is nothing else, but Love! But then I know they would look at me with a weird look in their eyes which says, I have heard many stupid answers before, but this is an original. Disappointed, I resign and explain, like I would to a child, what love feels like. India is a place, dominated by a crazy culture called 'Bollywood'. Its amazing to see the impact it has on one and all. If anyone should ask me, what rules India, I would like the answer to be Bollywood. Life, including politics, takes inspiration from this Industry. Then why shouldn't Love? Imagine the dreamy eyed Shahrukh Khan on a basketball field, looking love struck and telling the kid, Pyaar sirf ek baar hota hai. The impact this dialogue had on the audience was phenomenal! I can't se...

WHO DUN IT??

Long time ago when man lived in caves, they often wondered if it was by magic that the voice echoed in the darkness of the cold barren caves. Evolution, as the scientists say, started in these dark barren caves, where cave men evolved to become the more civilized human race. But still the mystery continued. The mystery of sound! Man continued to be bewildered by Nature. And this kept him busy. He tried to figure out ways to improve his life. Life as we know it today, owes its gratitude to many known and unknown faces. If it were not for people like James Clerk Maxwell or for Heinrich Hertz we would have never stopped being awe struck by sound. Ever since they figured out electromagnetic waves the world took another leap at technology. It was a small step for these scientists and a huge leap for Radio. Wireless communications helped bond boundaries and bring people closer. But confusion begins every time a teacher asks her student, “Who invented Radio?” The answer never surprises anybod...
