  6. this moment when I am reading it, I was asking the same question to myself- what went wrong? I have no clue... perhaps resorting to silence would give me some clue..

  31. touched .. what went wrong no clue.. . it is so true that sometimes relationships drift so much apart that there is no clue how it all started in the first place...

  32. Your post reminded me of something I read somewhere:

    The Fish says "I cant see my tears because I am in the Water"
    Water says: "I cant feel your tears because you are in my heart"

    We may hide our pains, but never can we lie to people who care for us the most. Words are not needed for them to know how we are.

  37. Very nicely written. In this increasingly noise world, we have forgotten the virtue of silence. We have forgotten that someone can also convey by being silent.

  38. So many things pass into the void and leave us without a clue. This one made me think.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Brilliant work! Brevity, truly, is an art and u master it. The vocab was top notch as well..

    Reminded me of one of my own old works, in Hindi...similar train of thought..

    1. I know only one thing and that is brevity. It's funny when I take part it contests and writing challenges, only thing I check and feel little jealous is the length of others' posts. I can't elaborate :P

      Would love to read it, in fact reading it right now.

  40. This is so beautiful! And these:

    From swivet in my words,
    To our passionate rendezvous.

    Memoirs still enchant,
    Dull evenings of all seasons.

    LOVED these lines! :)

  53. Very deep and mournful thoughts. My fav lines:

    If it's still fresh and I find happiness in the residue
    Then what went wrong? I have no clue.

    I can connect to this...Ankita took my words already....

    PS: it was a long way scrolling down for an eager reader to jot down her comments :) - The appreciation is endless.

    1. Seriously, can't understand why few things end. They made us happy, they make us happy, even in the residue. I am speaking generally, not only for love stories.

      Thanks for reading Vidhya and for a lovely comment. :)
