Twenty 4 - Hours!

Some cry today, waging wars, losing their minds, Some waited for this day of chaos and confusions, Some think of all the lost relationships, Some think of a better world, a place to live in. Some talk about saving tigers and whales, Some say the Arctic is growing ice, Some made life's choices today, Some stare at the bare wall, hoping not to think. Some stay at office twenty-three hours, Some talk to the mobile phones, Some stay up at night worried about tomorrow, Some say, life's a movie and we are all audiences. I say "Who is in it?!"

When I was born, I ruled this world. My mother and father listened to everything I said and bought me everything I wanted because they either loved me so much or I broke their ears. Time passed by, I had everything I wanted and still nothing I wanted. Every time I looked into my room there was one more of the things my friends had that I didn’t. I grew up looking more at others than looking at my own. The more I added, the happier I thought it was going to get me. I now sit in the middle of my room, looking around all things that my parents bought me. I am not sure if I should remember the irritation that I caused when they bought it for me or to remember of my times to keep up with my friends or foes. Where are my parents now? When I want them to buy me happiness in their laughs? In the super tasty food that my mum made for me which I threw away in anger? Where are the friends that I was trying to keep up with? Where am I right now?

I loved you like I should, I loved you like I would. When I see only tears in my eyes The reason nothing more than just "you" Would I love you the way I should? Should I love you the way I would? You are my better half, not my bitter Together we are supposed to be happy You still think of me as a stranger in your life I am feeling "done" of the things you think are "undone". When you are not the one I love anymore, When you have become the reason for the pain, Would I love you the way I should? Should I love you the way I would?

There is something about your smile When your eyes tinkle with curiosity There is something about your hands When you move them through the air There is something about your thoughts When i try very hard to read them There is something about your color When they brush on my hands There is something about your strength When you make so many friends There is something about your smell When i try to catch my breath There is always something about you When i am tired from a long day There is something about your roots When i am trying to stand in mine There is something about you!

I have been married 12 years and my life looks like a dark patch of cloud. I am happy, my husband keeps me well but I have this constant feeling that I do not belong either with my mum or my husband. I feel void. Twelve years ago, the mornings were blissful. I waited to start my day with my new family. I finally had what i wanted all these years. A husband and my life finally (i thought) had begun. Yes, we were happy. I was at home, a home maker and my husband worked with one of the Top IT Companies. We have had good days and we have had those I wouldn’t want to talk about. Life gives you two sides of anything, right? So as days went buy, i was doing nothing but cooking and talking to people who come home and my husband but nothing more. I was asked not to go out. I was asked not to talk to strangers. Ours was a love marriage. I loved this man who once loved me for my "outgoing" personality. Now, I am in between the four walls, with whom i try to talk. I didn’t
