A Bleak Nightfall


For the long three years of you convincing me and about a yearlong lovely relationship we had there was always this nagging and itching feeling that quietly devoured me.  I could never be the one close enough to you with whom you could share the pain deep in your heart. I remember during the last fight we had, I was gripped by the terror that it was the end of the blooming amour. You said I was no one to you and that the only person you were close too and cared about did not include me.  

Deep inside I felt happy as I held myself responsible for all the arguments you had with your mom these days; I didn’t want to be the spoiler. She acquires a bigger segment of your life which nobody ever can vigorously seize. I felt blown away by fierce wind with emptiness. You didn’t realize what you had uttered and how much your words had triggered deep in my heart. They were mere words for you that dropped out of your mouth and disappeared. But for me it was an explosion that got shivers down my spine my blood froze through my veins. You were the only one for whom I could lose everything I had.
Things changed gradually. Each day doesn’t remain the same. Change is the only constant thing in the journey called life. I spend precious moments with you with a smile pasted on my face; I was not the one you loved until the frosty midnight.

 On our first outing we got to know each other better when we spend an entire day together; so much love around me still a hollow heart lying next to you. You spoke about the fun, the memories the joy we had entire day; you realized I was numb. The next moment you broke down. I can still hear the silence of that awful midnight you held me against you and cried until you were breathless. You cried of how much an important part I am in your life.


The tiny fluttering’s in my heart that like a flame resided. It felt as if it rained after a prolonged draught. Tears gushing out of my eyes, I held you so close as if we were one soul. The frost of that midnight disappeared in your arms so warm and cosy. My depths of despair captivated with your immense solicitude.
