Urooj Butt👑 Posted April 14, 2018 Posted April 14, 2018 A DAY LIKE TODAY "Sim?" "Hmm.." "I'm not a good person like you say , I have dated women before you and now also I'm leaving you to marry another woman . But how do you never feel bad about it ?Why do you never hate me? Never ask why I still run to you whenever I need ?" "You know what ?" "What ?" "I was searching for a drop of water when I met you ,the whole damn ocean was in front of me. Since then, I have never been thirsty. I just needed a ray of hope and you came as the sunshine , replacing the darkness of my life. I was in need of a shelter to seek in, and I found my home in you . I was a little lost ,found my lost pieces in you. Piece by piece I found out that you live inside me more than my own soul and I need nothing more now. Even if you are not mine. That's a feeling of completeness." "Hmm, but you know, I never loved you . Still, I don't know why I feel, the most peaceful place is in your arms . I feel secured when I lie in your lap ,I feel heavenly when you run fingers in my hair . Everytime I'm disturbed I just want to run to you and cry like a child and I know you won't judge me. And you; without asking anything, just understand me and be there for me . Why is it so that I don't love you , yet I feel so complete with you?" "Hmm, well, I don't know . I also feel the same way. " I said, and for the millionth time I spoke to myself ,why don't you understand that it's nothing but 'love' . Why do you keep running from it ? I closed my eyes tight and prepared myself for telling him now. "Yes , I should " my soul whispered giving me a thumbs up My heart was on the verge of exploding . I spoke with quivering ,dry lips. "Sweetheart ,we feel so because we love each other, please stop running from this fact" . My eyes were still closed waiting for an answer. With the all the courage in the universe I opened my eyes to face him , just to find him sleeping peacefully like a kid. I bent , stole a kiss , held his finger and realised that maybe destiny didn't want him to hear it . I spent the night watching him sleep with that charming face and wondered "if only he could understand that maybe he won't need me someday , but I'd always wait for him to need me even if for just a single day, like today". And in days when he need me I live my life , rest , I just breathe and survive . ~Simmi Bhatnagar , The Storytellers
