Another of my Unfulfilled Dream

UPDATE:
Firstly, my heartfelt thanks to each and every wish for b'day and exam and general ones. It over-whelming! I've never had so many b'day wishes before :D Belated ones are still flowing in ;) Well I sincerely believe that when wishes are for a whole lifetime then a few days here and there don't matter :) Thanks neetie. Oh the same goes for thanks too ;) So pls everyone accept my belated thanks - was 'busy killing-time' (sounds so oxymoronic!) and with exams hence did not reply to comments.

Secondly, I had not thought that half the people reading it would fall for the prank even after seeing the date ;-) Still those who fell for the prank - their wishes for a better life were over whelming. No I am not going anywhere. Just getting degree normally, normal job, an average life overall :P

Wrote this years ago. But its now that I cannot sleep whole night missing someone and affirming my belief in miracles at 5 am!

What if I knew a lil' bit of Magic ?
These nights wouldn't have been, then, so tragic.
for,then I won't be dozing off here.
instead, we would have been near.

I wouldn't have to sit here & miss you so much.
would have fulfiled my wish, of you to touch.
yes, to touch you, to feel you, to talk to you all night.
since u are the only thing that seem so right.

But ain't I making a fool of the reality around me.
but isn't it you and your name that right now surround me?
Oh yes, even this reality is soo relative a term, it seems!
Anyways this magic will remain just another of my unfulfilled dreams.


Location : balcony of my room after an all-nighter. early morning time.
. . . and wanting to fly to her !!

  • Ektaji: romantic :)
    hidden ??? Aji die hard kahiye!
    No not miserable missing her- rather remembering her sweetly ;;)
    Such nice hopes - AMEN :D

    Actually they all have moved to delhi and I am in institute - going to delhi for job ;-) We are surely gonna be together again in a few months!

  • "Lil bit of magic" reminds me of the song ...Pankh hote to urr aati re...Ayy kaun se hindi song ko literally translate kiya hai?? hahaha.
    Jokes apart.... very sweet poem.Everyone goes through all this.
    Even without knowing magic u'd hv ur dream fulfilled...soon.
    All the best for the exams

  • To fulfill ur dreams u just should hold back ur self, give up ur papers, get a good job & find longer happiness together.

    I still can remember sri sri Ravishankar's golden words, If it gives initial pain & give long term happiness do it.

    It it gives short term happiness & long term pain better ignore it.

    So few days for exam , just concentrate on that.

  • Vandy: Hey kya bimari hai galat time par aane ki;) Subah se wait kar raha tha ab aa rahi ho #-o
    Aji yeh kaun sa song hai... zara details bataiyega pls. U know I dont listen much hindi so :| aajkal to hindi movies dekhna bhi band kar diya hai (exams) so no idea of new songs :( I hate it sometimes... ppl mock me soo much for enquiring obvious songs - I did not know 'Fannah' till yesterday =)) silly me :-j


    BnB: Welcome welcome! I've been looking for you. Where were you hiding? Rightly said - I agree with him on words - thanks for sharing his wisdom - just that I believe 'those who cannot, they teach/preach!' ... so unless Ravishankarji does some better things than preaching I would be skeptical about even lending him an ear :|


    Thank You both for ur wishes :)
    I need them real bad for this LAST paper on 27th :) Yeah going to delhi to work so just a few months more-wouldn't wish for magic carpets et al ;-)
