Short Story

Mohabbat-Unko-Ras-Nahi-Hoti-Hai.


Again

I felt as if I couldn't breathe
when I realized it has been
more than a year without you...
That I'll turn 18 without you...
That I'll go to college without you.
No longer are we inseparable,
for there are more miles
and light years between us
than I ever imagined possible.
Everything goes on without you.
Without me.
The leaves change colour,
the temperature drops,
the winter chill begins to set in.
All creation quietly screams to move on,
let go.
But what if I can't?
What will happen to me?
Will I never be open to love again?
Will I continue to push people away
until they finally give up fighting for me?
I wish you were here,
even if I can't have you for my own.
Just knowing you were alive...
How do I move on from what we had?
I still feel it, feel you.
Ach, you haunt me.
My every waking moment,
you hover in the shadows of my mind.
In the night, I feel you...
just out of my reach.

Failures Or Lessons?

Image
              Many individuals talk to themselves with a negative attitude. We tell ourselves we cannot do something so we do not disappoint ourselves when/if we fail. We live our lives afraid of failure. We have this unhealthy mindset that we are destined to fail. But we are not! IT IS OKAY TO FAIL! What? What is she saying?! What does she mean "It's okay to fail?" What I mean is this: Failure is a part of success. It is proof that you are trying. Like Thomas Edison said, "I have not failed; I have found 10,000 ways that do not work." Winston Churchill said, "Success is stumbling from failure to failure without any less enthusiasm." Failure is not falling down, but refusing to get up. Do not feel pressured to get up right away. Do not stay down for too long or you will come to use the excuse of "Can't you just love me for who I am? I am trying! Can't you see that? Why do you want me to get up right now? I need to learn!...

I Miss You...

Nature's first green is gold, Her hardest hue to hold. Her early leaf's a flower, But only so an hour. Then leaf subsides to leaf; So Eden sank to grief. So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay...   --Robert Frost       .  .  .  .  .      The evening chill reflected what she felt within her heart. Stepping out of the car, she inhaled slowly as she rested her head against the frame. Swallowing tears, she turned and approached the walkway guarded by two blood-red brick pillars. She tried to bury the memories and pretend that she was walking into a garden instead of a cemetery.  "A garden of souls," was her thought. Shaking her head abruptly, she touched her foot to the grass. Hesitating only a fraction of a second, she continued. Her legs could no longer hold her so she sunk to the ground. She knelt then, not caring if she stained her clothes on the slightly damp grass. Folding herself into an ...

Courage and Chances

"What's your heart telling you to do?" Said Jamie. "I don't know," Landon admitted. "Maybe, you're trying too hard to hear it.”  ― Nicholas Sparks, A Walk to Remember .  .  .  .  .            We should try to differentiate what the heart says vs the mind. Some psychologists today say to take into account the risk factors and act with the mind, not the heart. They continue to relay that in certain situations one may act with the heart and regret it later on, once all of the consequences reveal themselves. However, I dare to counter-argue that.       Wait one moment. I am not saying that all people should act with only the heart at all times. What I am saying is that the heart must act in accord with the mind. Most of the time, there needs to be a balance of the heart and the mind, the desires and the reasons, the wishes and the effects. Sometimes, though, a  Leap of Faith  is requi...
