My Sin.
Sometimes in life we meet some people who leave their footprints on the sands of time, along the shores of our soul. I knew it was true the moment I looked in her eyes. I held her hand and somehow it didn’t matter where we were, or that we didn’t belong. Nothing mattered, just me and her. I could never forget the glow of her eyes. We touched and melted in each others arms. The shadows of the night danced in ecstasy. We were there, two souls fusing into one. The moment held still as our worlds crashed down.
Sometimes its amazing, how some things which are not supposed to exist, appear out of thin air right there in our faces, looking into our eyes. How something which is supposed to be wrong and bad, could feel so right and true.
“Everything that feels so right, is not necessarily ours, and that is the paradox.. the truth of love.”
Some things which feel so right, doesn’t necessarily belong to us. Souls can’t be captured, just as spirits can’t be held within. Love is pure love is true, and when there’s love nothing matters. And the best part is that it doesn’t even require a happy ending, because there never is an ending to it.
I cried the night, questioning my commitments, questioning my faith, questioning my very existence. Did I exist in this world? A world without her? Or did I live in the moment which lasted for an eternity, which had nothing in it but us, which had everything in it.
My questions never found an answer, because the truth remained, no matter what I did to deny what I felt or what happened, that moment told me what I never realized – that I am alive.
In a short span of few weeks she upturned my life. Everything became topsy-turvy. Still it felt so right. I looked at her eyes. And I saw regret. It killed me from inside because all I could feel , was her. I couldn’t take my eyes off her. She seemed heavenly bathed in the moonlight. Glowing in purity reflected in itself. I wanted to tell her how she blew life into me. But all I wanted to say, melted away in tears.
And yet on this cold evening, as the last candle of my life flickered, and darkness closed in. I remember my loved ones . People who cared for me whom I loved. My parents my family, and just before everything melted into a darkness , with the very last glow of life, I saw her face, her smile. She touched my hand for a brief second.
