The Moment: The Memory Remains...

Sitting alone in the bus..headed back home from Atur Center..headphones in the

ears with the "Metallicas" playing..over n over again..and like all the other

Metallica numbers you feel you connect to this one as well..

And then she flashes in front of your eyes n stays....Stays so firmly that you

can take in all the exact details...The exact tilt of your head, the small smile

on your face that is about to turn to a laughter, the glint in your eyes, and the

affection in hers...

Somehow you remember wht she was wearing that day, 2 yrs back and what she was

smelling like.. u remember the touch ...you can remember how it felt then and you

feel exacty the same now..this very moment..

And this moment reminds of what you had....what you felt..n what you lost...and

how you long to feel the same now..

Your mind says, "Forget it dude,she was just another girl..aur mil jayegi...",

you reasoned "It was just another relationship", you reasoned "Naah..She was not

good for me...we had compatibility problems.." and then this moment crushes all

the logic in you..simply kills all the practicality and asks you very innocently

"ARE YOU ABLE TO FORGET HER AFTER 9 LONG MONTHS??". And you have no answer..just

a drop of tear about to roll down your eyes that answers the question for you in

its own silent way.

Then it goes away..just like it came...The moment...All your sense is back..you

are back to being mature..knowing what is good for you and what is not..
Now you know the answers...U suddenly convince yourself that it WAS worth it...

And then its your bus stop...Hinjewadi Chowk..time to get down and head back to

hostel..Moment gone: but not lost..

cause you know it will be back..back when you would be alone...

THE MEMORY REMAINS.....
