When You Came By!


On that street, when I saw you,
I thought of times that we went through.
And while I reveled in that joy,
I thought of times that won't come too.

You crossed the road with the same old gait,
I sat in the car in a spellbinding wait.
One glance from you would change it all,
But away you walked, not noticing at all.

The horns went blaring and I'd suddenly note,
My hands on the steering almost froze.
And while I shook my head in denial,
My heart whispered, "What's wrong in another trial?"

And so I drove that very road,
Morn and Noon, To and Fro.
Days passed by but you wouldn't show,
My heart felt low, coz again I let you go!

If only I got to be a man for a change, I'd know how carefree life can be!

I’m the symbol of true love… or am I?

My story began in a Media College in India! A keen Media boy presented me to his snobbish classmate and proposed to her. She let down the proposal and flung me away in the air. I landed amidst crow shit! A little kid was walking past. He noticed me and thought I belonged here among stone flowers. He was naïve to know that the stone flowers were no match for me; as I had one thing that they didn’t… BREATH! A philosopher was heading towards a venue to give a seminar. He saw me lying among the stone flowers and thought that I should be dedicated to a great man’s commemoratory statue. So he picked me up and left me near this statue at the gate of his venue! Then the wind blew me away far and wide. Before I realized, I was lying on pebbles of stone. They were hard and they hurt my back. But nobody paid any heed to my suffering. A poor girl was on her way to visit her ailing friend in the nearby hospital. She thought she would present me to him and wish him speedy recovery. I sat there on t...
