She had springs in her steps, her eyes had glimmer, She wanted to stay back in the present but jump into the future. They called her July, the month she was born. But she loved January, waiting for the page to turn. She knew the next year would be more similar than different, The disappointments would be as high as her expectations. But her heart didn’t accept what her mind believed. She had darkness all around, so hope’s flame she lit. And so she continued, battered and bruised on the Love’s course. Of all the hate of past, she just wanted to Love by Brute Force. ...

I am afraid to close my eyes tonight. A monster is waiting for me to drown. I gasped for breath and saw your face, All I could utter is… “Mom!”. I don’t know if it’s pent up anxiousness, Or do I really feel so alone. But I’ll be keeping the door unlocked, Hoping that you will come. ~RavS ## Wrote it on an nightmare filled night. ##

Be the momentum to my inertia, The force to my resistance. The antidote to my disease. ~RavS ## It’s every thinking man’s dream, that his lady is his ultimate inspiration and source of motivation. Time and again, I get into this ugly web of mind where I am not able to move forward in life. I just feel sick not being able to understand how to get out the mess. ...

You’re sure you’ll fail. But I’m sure too. I won’t let you. ~RavS ## I know you are short on confidence. We all are sometimes, and we feel like a failure. We feel we have failed even before we have barely started. But let me assure you even against your belief - till the time I am there, I won’t let you fail come what may. ##

A friend in need is a friend indeed, Time and again, they told me. And I took it as gospel truth, Selfish, until I found you. Or rather, the Universe, Conspired to find us. I learned and You taught me, To look through others’ sufferings. Be mediocre; but at the least be. So, now that’s what I always seek, Strive to be that friend in need. In my thoughts and in my deeds. ...

If I were you, I would have done that, Made that, and loved that. But I am I. So I do this, Make this and love this. Easier said this, than done that. ~RavS

Don’t need luck my way. I’m enough ‘cause you’re there. ~RavS ## I know some things are out of our control. There does exist something called ‘luck’ even if we try our hardest. But I don’t want to believe in that. At least, not in your case. ##

Don’t need to show anything to anyone. Enough we are among ourselves. ~RavS ## Of course, people are going to judge us. Some of them might want us to fail. They will ask questions, they will make sarcastic comments. But we don’t need to prove anything to anyone. We don’t need to show them anything. You are me, and I am you. That is enough. ##

You’re my weakness, I’m your strength. How beautifully unfair is that. ~RavS ## You consider me your strength. Your bedrock. But I consider you my greatest weakness. It’s unfair, but it is what it is. Accepted. ##
