20 questions


I wonder how you do it. Every single day of the year.

Unlock the door to your house and make a quiet entry into the home you call your own ...

How do you walk into an apartment where there isn't someone to smile as you walk in. Or give you a bear hug and ask you what took you so long to get back, not coz she wanted to nag you but just coz she missed you while you where away.

How do you live that moment ??? When your favorite love song plays on the radio in the backdrop of a moonlit night and you see no one whose hand you can hold and dance in the hall. No words said, no expressions, just you and her. The music and the moment.

How do you share your laughter? When you think of some silly event that happened in the course of the day, that you felt was incredibly funny.

How do you hide a tear when you long for her? But see no one around.

And when a nightmare awakes you, disturbs you and gets you worked up, don't you look for someone you could roll across to give a warm hug and sleep peacefully?

Who pampers you when you don't find the strength to get out of bed? Weary and ill. Who wakes up in the middle of the night to help you with a warm cup of coffee?

Whom do you play your best-played tunes on the guitar to? Do you wish someone would sing along when you do and chuckle when you started to sing and deliberately sang the wrong words ?

Do you hear laughter when you sing out loud in the shower, soaping yourself and suddenly realize that the tap has run dry?

Does someone yell at you when you come back home late from a party and not so sober?

Who completes those lines, of the beautiful words that you pen down when you get a writers block?

Who sits next to you, by the candle light, when there's a power-cut on a boring evening?

Do you wish that the time stood still when someone would kiss you goodnight?

All those questions said and done,

I think I have a final one ...

HOW do You Live ALONE???????

METHINKS BEING ALONE IS NOT BEING LONESOME .... as long as our own company soothes us and understands us... and yet there is always a longing -- ' koi hota jisko apna...'

feel one with your pensiveness -- completely. love, rachna

In my solitude, you touch me with the memories of days gone by...
Living alone is not for me so I live with my books at my side.

sometimes .. u enjoy living alone ... coz it gives u the freedom to do what u want ... live the way u want and be the way u r ...

But other times u want someone to share ur space with (not invade it .. mind u)

thats what this was all about ..

Keep coming back here Keyur ... there'll be more ...

Hmmmmm...........Every Rose has its Thorn...........Just like every night has its Dawn.

Dalin it is you who chooses to be alone and not the lonlyness that chooses you.

You may be surrounded with people at every point of time in life who love, care and respect you for who you are but still you may feel lonely or Vice-Versa.

Life can be enjoyed the way you want it to be...............and as far as the companion is concerned it can be any one.......Husband,Mother, Father, Sister, Brother etc who will give you all that you have described in your lines.
