serenity

lush green park surrounded by mountains, the moon leaves a faint glow on everything around you; cool breeze brushes your skin as you walk through a pebbled track. you keep your eyes focused on the path ahead but you can feel the presence of another person without actually looking. you keep on walking quietly as if you don't want to break out of this surreal trance.

cars whisk by and you can hear the remains of the water on the road as their tires splash through. people around you are looking but you're oblivious to all prying eyes. you walk on, maneuvering your way quietly through the damp patches.

you can feel her touch without any contact. you can sense her presence, hear her slow intake of breath with every step but you don't turn to look in fear of tripping. the absoluteness of her presence is enough for you.

kho ke apne par hi to usne urna seekha
jo bhi ho kal phir aaye ga
