Life....: My first Love Story

Thursday, March 09, 2006

When I met her for the first time her eyes casted a spell

And I got plunged into this disease from which u never get well

My gaze locked upon her and I was left transfixed..

I could feel the surge of adrenaline as with the blood it mixed

The atmosphere seemed to liven up and my heart seemed to race

Everything seemed to be full of joy just with a glimpse of her face

But when I met h er face to face, my vocal cords gave away

And I felt like a deer -- whom a lion was about to prey

I stood like an Idiot who every second would quiver and stagger

As though I was facing a bandit with dozens of guns and a dagger

I was mesmerized by her presence and stood like a dumb fool

And I felt myself sinking into an emotional pool

As time rolled by…the cobwebs seemed to clear

I gradually started to speak and away went the fear

Friendship seemed to prosper…nurtured by mutual talks

And I soon found her beside me on those long lake-side walks..

The seedling of friendship germinalted and to a tiny lil plant it did sprout

And various emotions sweeped me and came onto me in bouts

Though I felt like the bond between us was strengthening but to this I didn’t have a clue..

That as I was being swept was she being swept too?

I knew we both had lifted ourselves much higher than the friendship wall..

But I didn’t have the stamina to rise again if from this height I did fall

Torrented with various thoughts and warding off the sentiments flooding me

I called her to meet me in the evening for a cup of tea

To say her I memorized atleast a dozen lines

And wore my best suit and tried to look just fine

But my heart seemed to stop as she approached the table

And I just hoped that the whole thing was a fable…

I forgot all those lines that I had meticulously memorized

And one again I fell into the trap -- the magic of eyes

I mustered up all the courage I had and muttered three words at a go

And I don’t know what happened then…but she said something and started to go

For I was much more shocked myself, than she should have been

And before I could return to my senses she had left the scene

But after a couple of days she did call back

And I heaved a sigh of relief…I had not been sacked

And thus on that note our relationship began…

And since then despite its ups and downs…it has constantly ran!
