An Unsent Message (Troubled Water)

Dear best friend,

I've been thinking about you.

Do you remember the times when we used to get so fed up of life? The way we used to take long rides to nowhere, singing Simon and Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water? How we would cry while we laughed at the same time? I would tell you how glad I was that we had each other. You would just make a silly face and tell me to watch the road.

I listened to that song today. Over and over and over, until I cried and cried. But I couldn't laugh. Not without you.

If only I could tell you how much I wish you never left. How much I wish I could still call you up for a cup of coffee or a walk down the park. How much I wish that we didn't have to part so soon because I had imagined so many times how we would grow old together and be silly until the very end.

Now I am here. You are there, somewhere in a different world. I miss you. You have no idea.

But I will be strong for you, and live my life happily for you. I know you would want me to.

Farewell, dear one. Until we meet again on the other end of the bridge.


Forever your best friend,

~ A.K ~

 ~ Bridge Over Troubled Water ~

When you're weary
Feeling small
When tears are in your eyes
I will dry them all

I'm on your side
When times get rough
And friends just can't be found
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

When you're down and out
When you're on the street
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you

I'll take your part
When darkness comes
And pain is all around
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down

Sail on Silver Girl,
Sail on by
Your time has come to shine
All your dreams are on their way

See how they shine
If you need a friend
I'm sailing right behind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind

(Simon and Garfunkel) 

Refuge

 

 An ardent heart with wings,

seeking love on no man's land

A string of wishful thinking, 

sailing away into darkness

Foolish as fools can be

Blind as blind men can only see

Always a fountain of hopes

Never a mountain of wisdom

So goes the story of one's life

~ A.K ~

Life is a series of stories. So mine seems to be. Along the way, through all of its scenarios, I have stumbled and fallen, only to find myself climbing back to my own two feet. Most of the times. The images you see and words you read here in my personal chamber of thoughts are tokens of my past and present. They are inspired by dreams, unspoken thoughts, long lost messages and meaningful conversations. All the things I keep and seek for in this ever intriguing journey we call life.

Thank you for lingering. Your presence and friendship are gems to my story.

Best,
