A sudden Smile...
..n the heart dives unexpectedly to the soles of the feet. When it regains itself & gets back inplace...the whole atmosphere's changed. In the span of a nanosecond, there's a biggest smile greeting the heart back & every fibre of the being is suddenly alive..blood seems to be flowing copiously in every nerve. & all this becoz of somebody else, who just smiled at you.
& that's only the begining...
The day becomes brightly better, the nights full of unseen stars..oh so poetic, but it actually feels that way. & you suddenly don't care even if you just missed the lottery prize to a world cruise.
...The melting of heart quicker than butter on a fire...& the stupid smile which plasters itself on the face... the happy song on the lips forever, the stress which dosen't seem to bother..the extra patience that you gain over everything..anger too becomes just another word in the dictionary...the music in your soul & so many 1000 other good things happen. Nothing seems to effect the heart which is on a high.
...& then it all goes missing for a while. You don't know what to make of it. The world becomes the loneliest place. Somehow, the sight changes, colours pale away from the trees, the flowers, the birds..even from the face. Everything else is fine, the way it should be..yet, just becoz someone's smile went missing from your life, ..that one missing smile dosen't make up to the world full of laughter around you.
Don't think..don't think...don't think!! That's what the mind keeps shouting then...Coz mere talking does not get heard. & if more the thoughts, then more the confusion..more the unclarity. ..& for the stupid deeds of the heart, mind gets on double-duty; striving for balance... for sanity.
The world is full of lovely people...yet what a difference only that one person can make to the being, is something perplexing.
What is this termed as...Is this that thing called Love? The perfect alibi to any such kind of irrational..unfanthomable behaviour?
If this is what it is..then who wants it? Why do people actually look forward to fall in love? (It is a fall afterall!) ...to find that one person among millions who'll make the blood running to the heart, hot & cold in a blink of the eye. The knots in the head...the knots in the heart...the tizziness of the head, the fluffiness of the heart. No clarity of anything... & a whole lot of uncertainity.
They say the journey should be enjoyed too, as much as the destination. But if this is what it's all like... Can do without it!
If all works out in the end, then it compensates for just about everything. But what when it dosen't? Then the only thing everything within you shouts in unison is: Love is not needed here...not welcome here... to assault, to cripple & take over...
...Never again...Ever Again!
