The Unsent Letter

Meeting you was a gift from time !

Yes it was destiny, which brought us together 

But had time not favoured us,

We might have lost the connection...

This friendship had never even began its journey,

The special bonding we built unknowingly,

Would never have been founded,

We could have never known 

The comfort which seeped slowly between us,

So much so that distances never mattered after that.

The instant my phone beeped or rang,

You were there beside me,

as if a soul hotline connected us instantly,

One which our minds created

But our hearts generated.

Then one day we decided to meet...

You seemed very excited

So was I, yet there was something different 

Deep down in my being, 

I felt as if this was not something new,

As if i was reliving a scene,

Already shot before and saved !

We had been together before,

In a single frame,

More than once 

As if a song picturized with a single still photograph on the screen...

May be it was a memory of some distant dream, distant land,

May be in some other universe (as you suggested 😊)

Was it this unimaginable, unexpected comfort that drew us apart then? 

The time, the distance, the efforts 

Which never mattered before, 

All of them stood between you and me..

My heart was tearing apart, slowly bit by bit

We were so close yet so distant 

So comfortable yet complete strangers 

As if it was all a mirage...

I miss those moments,

We never got a chance to share...

Those cozy conversations resound in my half awake nights, 

Which we never had ...

I long for that special touch,

Which has become a distant dream...

My soul craves for that intimate feel, 

I'm going to miss forever and ever....

For the magic is gone 

And gone for good 😟

Life may give us chances again and again 

But moments are lost forever !
