His City



She arrived in his City, after a decade, The City where she had first met him.
The City had lost its charm. She was cautious to avoid His City for business or for pleasure. The City held the beautiful and private moments of their life together. She passed by his office premises. He had risen up in corporate ladder. He was now “THE CEO”.
She thought of visiting the office building with an intent to see him. She knew it was highly impossible that he would be at his workplace, now at this time of late night. Slowly, she got off her car, just to have a glimpse of him.
The thought made her eyes shine and her lips smile. Practicality took its place. She knew it was futile. She decided otherwise and the chauffer proceeded towards her hotel.
The light lit the office first floor. He walked towards the French window- For Air. For Smoke. To Breathe. She had been so close yet she choose to walk away. He let her go. Persuasion was never his forte. The wind lingered with her aura, her presence was still felt. 
He sighed.
She still wore the fragrance gifted by him since the day he had said “I Love You.”

We Came A Long Way

  We Came A Long Way From the first glance to only noticing you at this moment,  we came a long way; From keeping distance to ensuring that there is no distance,  we came a long way; From lowering your eyes on my sight till not seeing anyone except me,  you came a long way; From asking did you eat, to savouring ur taste buds with my cooking skill, I came a long way; From diplomatically trying to take sides and be politically correct,  to fiercely being protective of each other,  we came a long way; From slighting touching hands accidently to holding hands tightly,  we came a long way; From wishing to smooch till claiming each other’s lips possessively,  we came a long way; From desiring and wishing to stubbornly demanding,  you came a long way; From not being aware of your existence to miss you at the slightest instance,  I came a long away; From closing ourselves behind the garbs of traditions to fulfilling what the heart truly desires,...
