I had...

I had Come....

I had dropped by, you were sleeping and I didn't want to wake you up. There was a smile on your face, perhaps a dream, a nice one. You had wrapped the bed sheet around you completely. Yes, the room was a little cold. So, I closed the windows shut.

After looking at you for some more time, I left...just the same way as I had come, quitely.


I Had Listened to Every Word that You Said....
And your laugh, that brought a smile to my face every time. I ended up smiling throughtout your conversation. Gosh, how many things you find funny !
Your friend did not speak much. She too listened to your "little stream down the mountain" talk. So many things you had to say. I didn't interrupt either. I just stood close by pretending to read the newspaper. And then you both said bye to each other and parted. I waited there for some more time, expecting to hear your laugh and talk again. I was just hoping, somehow, someway it would come back or become a part of me, so that I could carry it around with me, wherever I went.

After some time, I got up and wondered where to go. Maybe I should have just waited there.
