Night.
September 9, 2011 § 17 Comments
It’s one of ‘those’ nights.
When you’re lying in bed, thinking of nothing particular. Choosing from an assortment of thoughts instead.
When the slightest memory of something disturbing brings you to tears. You are THAT edgy.
When thoughts don’t have a pattern, yet they bring out the sadist in you.
When it’s raining outside, and you long to be held.
When the coldness of the room is in starking contrast with the warmth of the tears running down your cheeks.
When you think of Him, and wonder if He thinks of you too.
When your body is numb, and you can’t carry the weight of your own arms.
When your heart is pounding in your chest, and you’re short of breath.
When you can’t decide between the ruins of the past, and the decaying present.
When all you need is Him, or His manifestation.
When you can’t wait to take the leap, and you’re scared of the fall.
It’s one of ‘those’ nights.

Chill! Don’t think too much Deepak. π
seems silence not within us n the forced silence of a night not bejewelled with stars of hope…is the root of all trouble:-)
What trouble, Garima? π
love it!! so many of these nights i have had…… you put them to words brilliantly!! i miss you!! xoxo
And so many of these I am having. I’ll see you soon, love! π
You must write…its one of those days as well π
Hehe. Sure boss! But you know my mind functions best at night. :p
It’s nights like these that make u realise wat u r within.!
Nights like these take u closer to the answers we always seek.!
And to figuring out the questions, when you’ve been fiddling with the answers too long!
We are the most perfect thing God ever created….and then left us to figure out so many things !
Your dilemma of being “silly humans” is well reciprocated here !!!
π
thankfully, the figuring out does not end!

This has a lot of pathos and melancholy.
I have been having many such nights recently and i can connect to it like a fish to water.
Breathtakingly gorgeous. Very well-written.
Hmm. This was a generic post. I know a lot of people who can connect with it!
Thanks Doc!
