Alone...

Sometimes… no matter how many people love you, no matter how many people you love, it just gets into you. You feel like you are alone.

Sometimes… even if you have a number of dear friends you can not share your worries and tears with them.
You know you can call them at 3 am but you will not.
You know they promised to be there for you anytime, but whenever you need a hug or a shoulder to cry on, circumstances are just not in your favor.

Sometimes… you just don’t have this chance to turn to anyone.

Sometimes… even if you are with the best of people, you are still not with them.
You talk, you laugh, you smile… but your soul cries.

Sometimes… even if you are madly in love, you are still alone. You can get all the love, care, comforting from your soulmate, but then just sometimes… on some days.. when you need them the most they won’t be there… not because they don’t want to or don’t care, but just because they cannot…

And then at the end of each day… no matter how much loved you are… you are still alone.

Unless He Knows...

“A day without talking to you is like a torture, sweetheart”.
Yet he finds it fair not to talk on the days when he is tired.

“I want to hear your voice all the time; it makes me feel like I am in heaven”.
Yet, he skips daily calls every now and then.

“I need you asking me questions; it is like sharing myself with you completely”.
Yet, some questions are always left unanswered.

I love…
I want…
I need…

But She loves too…
And She wants too…
And She needs too…


Yet she knows he is really just a call away, will be right there once she really needs him.
Unless he knows she needs him…
Sometimes somehow he does not know…

I remember...

I remember days many years ago when i would stay at my friend's and we would talk all night long about the rest of our lives, where we were heading to, what we were going to be when we would be 25.

We believed things would never change for us, we would always stay friends, times would always be the same. But at the end of the day we realized things dont always go the way we have dreamt of.

Because now we left 25-mark behind and nothing is the way we thought it would be. We just landed on different tracks. The only thing i regret are words i have never said, truths i never admitted, smiles we once shared.

And now when i have new people in my life i prefer to say things that i need to say to them because i understand i dont have another day and maybe tomorrow my track or their will take another turn and it might be too late. And I might never get a chance again to do this but instead will get a lot of time for new regrets.
