Amen?

{The scene...in between slots on a bright and chirpy day, in a dark and muddy hostel room, munching on a break-through Diwali snack from my mom, staring through swollen eyes at the laptop, without glasses and tears raining down my face}

I think last night's rain stopped 'cos I was giving it too much competition.

Last Sunday's Magazine, the weekly supplement to The Hindu carried a real-life story about a love destroyed during the Sikh riots. The protagonist concluded by saying the only thing worse than not loving someone is losing the person you love the most through some mistake of yours.

I silently resolved once more not to let this happen to me. Yeah, we'd been quarelling on a regular basis and yes, both of us knew we were really testing each other's patience. But there was always this knowledge that we'd calm down in a very short while (highly facilitated by each other's presence and the dark bench facing the hostel) and things would be normal again..at least till the next fight.

Last night was one fight too many.
{Was it really? Most of what you said was true anyway, wish I could put my points across as effectively.}

I can't live without you. Heck..even if I can, I don't want to.

I remember saying, on receiving the guitar, that it'd be no fun being on the moon if you weren't there. Forget the moon, it's no fun sitting in I.E. class without stealing furtive glances at you.

Loving you to me means keeping you happy at all costs, making sacrifices if the need arises and holding nothing back. It's the only love I know and it doesn't happen too often in one's life. It's really lucky to have it happen once.

I should know, I've had the best two months of my life. Anything, if at all, in the future is a compromise.

I couldn't walk the complete distance of the shed to the hostel last night without breaking down, how do you expect me to go through life without you?

This morning I didn't want to get out of bed, in case this wasn't nothing but a bad dream. Well..it is and I gave up Hobbes' philosophy for yours and now I'm stranded.

Let's not walk away.
{Wish you'd have stopped me last night.}

Wish I'd have said this last night but Please don't go, I need you.
