Dad s here :)

Probably they are right when they say that staying away for a while will help you know really how much you value a person.

If you know me pretty well, then you probably know how I was ranting about dad going to a place that is 12hours away from Bangalore. The last few months before I get married and I won’t get to spend enough time with daddy.

My heart felt as heavy as a rock when I had to see him away and this was 3 days before my birthday. My birthday is a very important day to him and his presence makes it the most special thing for me. Having been around my all these years on this day and going away this year felt crazy for me. And I’m sure daddy cried on my birthday too. My last birthday before I went away and dad just could not be there. Bad bad birthday! L

And today was when he got back home for his baby’s first step into a special journey.

Never ever had I waited with bated breath for someone’s arrival. I literally was counting minutes and cursing the clock for moving so slow. I thought the damn clock had stopped. But no. Now I know what it means when people say ‘I thought time’s not moving at all’!

And finally the doorbell rang announcing daddy’s arrival. There was nothing I could do to stop myself from grinning like a complete idiot. The delight of being home showed clearly on his face too. And next I remember is being cuddled like a baby in his arms. I felt like the world was at my feet. Daddy’s eyes were wet too. I wonder what it is that makes a father-daughter bond so special. He being back here was his gift to me for Father’s Day. Everything that I wanted to tell dad and share with him just came out in a blur, I have no idea how much of it he could even understand! Hehe… But knowing dad, he would have grasped every word that I ever uttered. That’s how it is. All the anxieties and tension melted away with his presence. I have the bestest dad in the world, and I know that’s exactly what every kid feels. It just felt so wonderful to realize that for a week I can get home and find paa waiting for me for me to tell him how the day went past! Alas, it’s going to last only a week. And I will enjoy while it lasts. How I wish days just stop right here, right now! J

So, that’s it for this post. I’m happpiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeeee…

Love u, love u, love u daddy! Muah!

This was supposed to be a post about something else completely! But just then I received a mail that the boy sent to all his colleagues announcing and inviting them for our engagement.

Just read through the text of the invite once, I saw it was not the text I wrote and sent out. I so wanted to yell at him and I actually did ask from who gave him the text! “GOOGLE” he said, with a grin, I could not help, I smiled too. In all of this, I forgot to look at the whole invite itself.

In the end were both of our names. Together. It was the best part of the whole invitation for me, it truly was. Our names together in the same sentence. So we are finally going to be spending our lives together. Nothing less than a dream come true for me. We sit and talk about the future, plan out which direction life should head and all the other nice things that two people in love talk about. For someone who never wanted to get married, this is a huge change and it was welcome even. As for me, I never thought that me and the boy could even be in a committed relationship no matter how badly I wanted to. But then, we are and we are getting married. Oh, I can gush forever!

Me and S were talking yesterday about marriage other related stuff, she said “it’s going to be funny to live in the same house”!  She is getting married in the first weekend of July. I loved all the girl talk that happened when we met today, it had been really long since we had met. And we went to U’s place, I was the surprise. Well, we were surprised with her attitude! OK, I don’t want to really talk about that you know!

So, the mails have gone out and people are really excited for the both of us. I am overwhelmed, he is happy. AND THE DREAM RUN BEGINS!!! J

Set me free!

This is a poem I'd written a loooong time ago, sometime in 2007. Sharing it now..

Waiting I am, as forever I was,
for that look, that touch of yours.
Take me in your arms and set me free,
from this pain I treasure in me.

Everything that was ever said and done,
all that happened and we became one,
is still on my mind and so much it cost,
I found myself with everything I lost!

There were no flowers that came my way,
but it was that made my day.
I know not how beautiful it would be,
until you showed me in your own sweet way.

My eyes searching for yours always,
my soul reaching out to you.
I hoped to stay away for a while,
I tried and it was so futile...

Your fragrance lingers on in my breath,
this passion shall live on till death,
light up and set me again on fire,
It will be me who will be consumed by desire...

The caress of your lips on mine,
was so beautiful, it was so fine.
I still remember as if it were yesterday,
it was just you, me and everything else at bay!

How you won over me is still a mystery,
but I gave you all that I had in me.
Come,take me in your arms and set me free,
from this pain I treasure in me...
