Desires know no bounds. They
slowly crawl into your life and before you know it engulfs your entire persona
and governs the life’s action. Such was the intensity of desire that moved two
such souls being drifted apart by the vagaries of fortune. So it was but
natural that when they crossed the hurdles being thrown at them by life they
were nothing but eager to find love & peace in each other’s embrace.
For all the raw passion &
the sea of emotions that were causing turmoil deep within the reaches of their
heart they put on an expert show of defiance in front of each other. However
such a façade falls apart when each one can see through the veil of normalcy
for they know each other too well. They have known each other only over a
period spanning a few months but it seems like ages especially when most of the
moments are spent in the solitude bereft of each other’s company. Now they stand
only a body length from each other but it seems that even this distance seems
hard to bear. It is evening and it has gone a little dark, a gentle breeze
blows across but it seems strong enough to sweep both of them off their feet
& throw them into each other’s arms. They take small hesitant steps towards
each other but with every step the distance only seems to grow greater. It
defies all the logic and rationale that they have imbibed over the period of a
lifetime for they can’t seem to put in place what they feel for each other. The
feeling is so intense, so passionate, so heartfelt that no words in the world
can seem to do justice. They approach each other & stare into each other’s
souls and whisper a song of love, of happiness, of grief, of passion, of pain,
of their longing for each other. Their lips tremble and long to feel the
sensation that they have longed for ages now. Small droplets of rain suddenly
seem to grace the moment & break the bridge of silence as they exchange a
free spirited smile & without uttering another word they bury themselves in
each other embrace. Their arms start tracing out the silhouette of their bodies
which is now mildly wet because of the rain which has got a little heavier.
They start to feel the intense desire rising through them as they look at each
other in embrace & then through the maze of raindrops they start to kiss
each other with all the longing & the desire which has separated them over
time. It seems like a culmination of all things good & bad that makes the
Universe go round for the Universe for them doesn’t extend beyond each other.
