EVENING MUSINGS!!

Evening musings!!

It’s one of those rare evenings,

When I have nothing substantial to do,

And I decide to take a walk in this pleasant weather,

Feeling the breeze; staring at the orange evening sun,

I admire the sun as it slowly sets down,

Giving way to a beautiful, starlit night,

And I wonder; sun is the perfect metaphor,

For life, for love, for relationships,

My mind drifts to thoughts of you,

As I begin to relive our journey together,

Yet again, I feel so lucky to have met you,

And honoured to have been cared and loved,

I was lost like a desert traveller when I first met you,

Distressed and lonely; in search of an oasis,

Life seemed tough; it was becoming harder each day,

For I had been heartbroken; and I didn’t want to live,

You understood what I was going through,

You felt my pain, by just looking at my eyes,

You gave me warmth; you gave me strength,

And slowly I began to recover, and start living again,

When you confessed that you loved me,

You knew I wasn’t in love with you back then,

Yet you understood I needed some more time to move on,

And patiently stood by me like a true friend,

Dear, it’s been more than six months,

Since that fateful day when you had proposed,

And today I can confidently say; I have moved on completely,

I love you truly, and I want a life with you,

Sometimes we feel sad that the sun’s setting,

And fail to appreciate the beauty of the moon,

We brood over the past; we whine and fail to enjoy,

The myriad beauties of life, that the present offers,

This evening walk is what I needed,

To gain a better perspective about life,

As I walk back home, I thank God for giving me pain,

For without that, I never would have experienced the joy of living....
