While sitting under the shade of tree, trying to write his name on the sand with a weak wooden stick... an sudden tremor of uncertainity prevents me from proceeding ahead and the fishes so jolly and excited kept teasing me with their splashes of water... for how beautiful the life is and I'm just being a waste of time. Again with more focus I begin giving the story a new shape altogether... and like a breeze, in my ear.. I hear... 'I love you!'
Gaining back my strength, and memories of my life, I try to write the name of my very beloved, and yet again the sparrow on the tree comes to sit in my lap asking me the reason behind the sorrow expressions... I remain quiet and amazed... for she insists on looking around and realizing the beauty of nature, the fragrance of flowers and the songs they were singing... her persistence on me joining their chorus made me leave the place and the dry weak wooden stick with the incomplete attempt of writing his name, and yet again after a while I realise its not my world to run away and stand besides the river under the same tree... "ouch!" I screamed, as if someone touched my waist with his soft comforting hands... and I looked around so scared, so restless, searching for one who was mocking at my loneliness... while I was searching behind the trees, a sudden blow of air calling me, letting me know 'I love you!'
With an astonished look, I decided to leave, and ran towards the palace, my skirt torn in the woods and left anklet broke off my feet to find a place in the roots... I still ran breathlessly to go back home and find peace from this unknown spirit... yet again when standing with doors closed, taking long deep breathe to come back in senses, eyes closed to disconnect from reality I could still feel him caressing my cheeks and other hand trying to hold me tight... with a mild soothing voice he said, 'I love you'... waking me up from a dream instantly.
Shocked and trembling out of fear, I closed all the doors and windows, in the splashes of water, taking a shower to divert my mind... and all in vain when, for a moment I closed my eyes, I could feel his lips on my ears and yet again 'I love you'.
Fear of being lost overpowered, and sadness of not being able to find him brought tears... I screamed... I shouted... I begged to leave me... to forgive me... to let me see his face for once... to not leave me alone in this cruel world... and yet again nothing more than 'I love you'...
Frightened and all wet in the sweat, I suddenly woke up and checked my anklets and my skirt... all in place, and within no seconds his hands pulling me down back to come and rest besides him... and he says 'need not be so tensed, for however long these nightmares might be... I still love you forever.'
