loved

This is dedicated to all those people who loved me as lovers, friends, siblings and family... that I have lost. Whether we are still talking or out of touch, whether we still love each other, I still think of our past, treasuring it like a spot of sunshine on a dark day. It's too easy to forget how we were because of the current, uncontrollable factors that have torn us away from each other. Let's try to remember....

"stray cow"

The colour of your name describes the warmth you make those around you feel. We had our extended sleepover, a pretend game of house... soon the warmth froze into winter and divided we were by mist snow and ice. Just out out reach you are till today, I see trace of your through mutual aquaintances, you always out of my grasp.


" The unknown sender"

We could have been the best of friends, with all our common interests- languages, photography, traveling and business. I guess we took a wrong turn for which I could not continue down, so I went back to the start, but you weren't there to follow.

"Fried bananas that are really plantains"

We met randomly upon false assumptions of association, our friendship extented across the world, only to break once we return to the origin. Though hours away physically, oceans we are in spirit.

... I hope that one day you will stumble upon this entry and smile, as I have smiled remembering these events and maybe, maybe decide to reach out to me as I have been trying to reach you so that we may once again live under the same sunshine.

The second sentence :" ...I have lost..."

Well, i believe you haven't lost them. Just that you are separated from them due to the vast difference in terms of locations. :)

Anyway, i enjoyed reading this post. A good one. And speaking of keeping in touch, Facebook has been doing an amazing job hasn't it?

Take care.
