Among the myriad of busy people slumped in their own world filled with varied emotions, as the music faded despite the blaring sound that could shatter the glass window pane, the crowded diminished into blurred shadows. The sleepiness that haunted me for a while as I somersaulted in the bus sitting at the same place started wearing off. The reflection became clearer with each passing second as animated figures that were indulged in the chattered conversation on the technology's latest. Everything turned into dual colors of black and white except that violet dress that she wore. As the bus made its way through the crowded streets packed with more cars than humans, the hair danced on her cheeks covering that cute dimple. Those brown fiercely calm eyes looked as relaxed as it could ever be. There was this charm that radiated around her which lately is being lost in the people due to too much make up, may be. That warmness in the charm attracted me. Though however simple she might be, she looked perfect among many imperfections dwindling to be perfect. I wanted to absorb and sink in, but I had to go.

They talked in animated conversation, he snapped from one of his day dreaming session. She came and went. At one moment their eyes met. He just sat there and trying to recollect that face. Her smile. He snapped again, she didn't even smile. It was a brief moment. A very brief moment. He didn't knew her. They were in a function. He was in a group of friends, so was she, but different groups, per say. He searched for her again, he couldn't find her. She was lost in the crowd. He was lost in the dreams yet again. The only thing that troubled him was that he couldn't recollect the face, yet he knew how beautiful she looked. He just couldn't.

P.S. I think I owe an apology, to myself first of all and to all the people whose blog I haven't been able to visit regularly. No, I wasn't busy at all. Remember the tag line I used to tell a while back, "Jobless with a Job", well, that is back. And though I have all the time, I have just dodged from writing, every.single.time I wanted to write something. I am still trying to figure out what went wrong and where. There is this feeling that is awful, let me tell you, that there are thoughts, a lot many if I could point out, but nothing is coming out. I open the blogger every single time, I click on new post, I stare at it blankly for a while. Close the tab. Watch a tv series, come back, repeat. Something is really wrong with me, isn't it? And the worst part is that there is this self-indulged challenge of blog every day. *Sigh*. That doesn't seem to be coming right. Plus there is this A2ZChallenge to start in May. Ughh. I am so impossible.

[ 18 / 365 ]
Good observations.. :) Btw girl was in office bus ha... ;)
ReplyDeleteNo.
ReplyDeleteBMTC.
A very poetic description.
ReplyDeleteAnd don't worry. I know that feeling of not being in the mood to write or read even though you have all the time. I have been a victim so many times. For me, I wouldn't be able to reason out why it happens. I just let it pass for sometime and then force myself out of it by writing some post, even though it might turn out crappy. I call it the hibernation phase. Like when you eat a heavy meal, all you would want to is just sleep though you have all the time to do all the works you have on your to-do list.
Thanks. :)
DeleteHibernation phase, sounds about right! And yeah, I am forcing myself out of it. It has been long time, since I wrote.
So long man! I was wondering what happened and more importantly if you are okay but I must say what a poetic comeback ;-)
ReplyDeleteYeah, right?
DeleteI'm okay. Thanks.
Poetic ? Umm, thanks. :)
Hope , I stay here more than I expect and keep coming back.
haha...dude, you are enjoying the time of life! Jobless with a job is something i would die for!
ReplyDeleteSitting in the silent dark with out cell or any other gadget just relaxing helps me...sometimes...make sure you scare someone in the process :P
BTW isn't A2Z challenge in April?
Enjoying? Doesn't seem that way to me!
DeleteWHAT ?? :O
Yeah, I also saw that but got too lazy to edit.
Just noticed you have 1 Lakh views!! Dudeeee, you are awesomeeee!!
ReplyDeleteUmm, yeah.
DeleteI was supposed to write a post on that. But, *sigh* !
Grr your posts take forever to appear on my reading list :O I looked at the list seeing "posted 4 minutes ago" and I was thinking woohoo I'm the first comment..but then I was confused to see 10 already :)
ReplyDeleteAnd like everyone said, very poetic description. She is reminds me of someone...someone who usually approves of things :P
Plus welcome back! You were quite missed if I may say so myself!
Yeah right? I also cane across it a while back. I don't really know the reason. It gets updated on my feed after a day or so.
DeleteAh, thanks.
Haha. I wish. I wish. :P
Yeah , thanks. :)
Wait, did you just say I was missed. Thanks for the gesture. :D
And why would anyone want to write everyday?
ReplyDeleteDon't write forcefully. That charm gets lost. That is just my belief!
btw beautiful description of the girl in purple :)
Because they are dumb and stupid. Oh well, its just me then. :/
DeleteYeah, I know. Not forcing. I just want to let it slide on its own.
Ah, Thanks. :)
Short and sweet - I like posts with this kinda quality! But out of all of that I just have one question? Why exactly are you somersaulting in the bus? I got a picture of a trapeze artist or monkey LOL
ReplyDeleteWhy, Thank You! :)
DeleteSo do I. But not as talented to write it all over again. I will try to maintain this type of writing, if I can.
Lol. I was wondering whether people were so carried away by the content that they neglected the somersaulting part. :P And no, don't picture it like that. It is like a figure of speech (which evidently I created). Due to eh sudden stops/ brakes and sudden jolts, sudden everything, I was swinging two and fro, which I wanted to give some expression and I came up with that. I know it sounds lame. :P
Hahaha okay the swinging and sudden jolts bit I TOTALLY get but hahaha somersaulting! That's the first thing that made ME come to a sudden jolt while reading hahaha.
DeleteAnd yup, dude, it's awesome quality but don't hold it as the aim you have to reach each and every time! Then you'll get stuck even worse trying to live up to it. (Not that your 'usual' rambling isn't great, it is! That's my whole point).
You mean you somersaulted in your chair! :P #Awesome
DeletePeople usually hate that rambling, don't they? Because I don't think I am not getting the response that I should be getting for having a pretty big follower list! :/
