Those Dialogues in the Dark

                                 


                                          A moment in the darkness, an attempt to escape,
to where reality doesn't steal the joys of today;
The faint luminescence of hope in the far off lands,
the strong presence of our clasped hands;

The comforting nostalgia of the past so fond,
even evil would succumb to it with a song;

It's a path less traveled, 
wouldn't fear to even create a new trail;
till the time you stand by me,
there ain't no sea we can't sail;

It's the unexplored ocean,
the winds are bound to get rough;
just the thought of being together till the end,
makes it look less tough;

"Times will get trying and I might slip and fall,
It's then I'll need you to help me again stand tall;
Stronger I shall be even in my weakest times..."
"When It's me you'd need, I'll come stepping o'er my life."

    :)I like the poem a lot! I think the first two lines and the last paragraph are my favorites! :)

It's an NDA Love Story. (Part IV)

A Cadets love story All day i kept finding time and guts to make the call. Finally, got the phone free as well. Trust me; the nervousness was more than my first jump from the ten meter board! Trin... trin...... (%$#@&*)...... Trin.... trin..... "Hi! Busy are you?". "Took so long, to take the call." " Avijit !!!!".  Khyati screamed. "Where on earth have you been?? and no no not busy. Unknown, outside Delhi number so i wondered.....ANYWAY... How are you? Finally got time to call eh? Didn't even tell me before leaving, you jackass!" {{Yea sure! you stood me up.. switched off your phone and acted like a psycho and I get to be the jackass}}  Well of course this was just me speaking to myself. All I could manage to say really was, "hmm.... ya... got busy..". "You tell me how are things at your end?" I have no idea in which inauspicious hour I asked this question and BAM the dam of stories broke.... from ragging, ...

It's an NDA Love Story. (Part III)

She speaks..... What to do? When you have to choose between what is right and what makes you happy. Although going with what makes you happy is always the rosier option but they say, what is right will eventually make you happy.  I was not sure, I just couldn't reach a decision so escaping the situation was the easiest way out and that's exactly what I did. Yes, I stood him up. What could I possibly tell Avijit? How could I ever explain the mess I had created in my head which ultimately made things messier. He's the kind, who would take life as it comes. Thinking and planning just don't exist in his dictionary. Telling him that, "even though the feelings are mutual, I can't get into a relationship with you", would have made things weird for him. To me, being in a relationship and being committed are still somewhat synonymous. It's too big a risk to take; rather he is too good a friend to take a risk with. Avijit is my best BEST friend! He has been...

LIGHTS OUT - Your journey to the 'antim pag'

Uncertain and anxious,  you stepped in this world of crimson and steel; leaving behind the hues of comfort, you were burnt to fit the OG feel; from a success story to a worthless 'jangu' , the fall was quick and steep; difficult to make peace with reality, very often made you question this leap;  walking on two's was a thing of the past,  your seniors introduced you to much cooler versions!  Dirt, sweat , blood and bruise; slowly erasing all your aversions...  getting innovative day by day, you learnt the tactics of OTA;  gathering sleep bit by bit, in this world, our ' jangu ' had begun to fit  many obstacles maneuvered'  and life basics tossed;  the lanyards were doned,  and PT hurdles crossed!  Battalion fall ins, the bajri order, and all the hell that broke lose!!  those sleepless nights saying thank you's, the corridors witnessed shaping of the invincible zullus! there were lif...
