The Girl In The Blue Line Metro



Noida city center                    :07

I cursed the system of our country in every language i knew....who the f*ck has the time to wait for 7 min...controlling my desire to smack the driver across the face, i waited...among a dozen others, desperate to get on the next train...finally it was here...but i was transfixed at my position...standing near the door, you were smiling, probably at someone you knew....but i felt that smile was meant for me...people pushed me and shoved me out of their way...i even heard a man call me an idiot but his words didn't make any sense at that moment...all i cud see was you...

I had always been a practical guy...never believed in horoscopes, superstitions or love at first sight for that matter...but having had two serious relationships and countless one night stands in the past 2 and a half yrs and yet having seen the same face when i closed my eyes and went to bed each night...even i began to doubt myself....either i was in need of a psychiatrist or re-evaluating my beliefs...

Since going to a mental health professional seems like a rather costly affair...i'll accept...that it is indeed your lips that i want on mine each and every day, as long as i shall live...it is your hand that i wanna hold when i flaunt you in front of my 'good for nothing' friends...it is your face that i wanna see everyday when i wake up next to you in our bed...and for me to be the one you smile at, when you look out the window of your metro and spot me among a crowd of people...

Every time i tell someone about u...they begin by laughing at me and end with calling me crazy...but having lived my life following logic and reason at every turn, i did try to forget you...but how can you forget someone you never knew?
