The person we always talked about

You know, it took me a year to find the person you always talked about. The person you wanted, the person you wanted to be brought back and the person we fought the most about.

I always raged over it. Why couldn't I be enough. Why couldn't you stay with me and spend the rest of your life with me when you always talked about it and said that you wanted to. Why couldn't we actually do the things we wanted to do. Why couldn't we be the people we actually said we could be. I guess, the heart doesn't care what the mouth says. The heart doesn't care about logic or promises or technicalities. The heart just hearts. It does what it is best at, messing up beautiful relations and feeling for people who don't matter or care. It's funny and ironic yet beautiful when you stop judging it and actually think about it.

Anyway, back to the person we always used to fight so much about. I am sorry for not understanding you earlier. I regret being always so non-understanding and moronic about it but I guess that was just the person I was.  The person you wanted to find. Your taste was always exquisite. Your taste in art was even better and human beings are nothing but art after all. I must say, I must admit, I must come through and say that, he was worth it. He is worth it. He will always be worth it. I guess I only cared about how I jealous I used to get of somebody just so good. I guess I was insecure and I didn't want you to go, ever. But the Universe always has a way of figuring a couple of things out.

No matter how you treated me, or how you loved me, or how you had to go away for the sake of my betterment. No matter how you stopped. No matter how you went on. No matter what happened, I will always be thankful to you. You are the most special I've ever had the luxury of getting a taste of. I have to thank you for what you did, because if not for you, I would never be the person we talked about always. If not for you, I would have never become the person we always fought about. If not for you, I would have never become the person I kept on finding for a year. As it turns out, the Universe always finds a way.

If not for you, this life would not have been.

Bottles, empty bottles

Our lives are like an empty bottle. Have you ever seen the motion of an empty bottle after you slightly interrupt it's motion at rest? It keeps tilting to right and left after you disturb it marginally. It keeps doing that for some minutes before it gets back to rest and stability. That's our life. Somebody comes in, out of the blue we never expected, we never heard of and disturbs our rest. Somebody comes and owns us. Most of them somebodies don't stay. They leave and then they interrupt the motion, life is startled and starts tilting here and there. There's no stability. It takes a lot of time to get it back to rest and happiness. It is like the basic rule of life. That person changes you forever, changes the way you think, the way you progress and the way you act. The way you make decisions. It all depends on that person. 

Singing myself to sleep.

Call me at 4 in the morning and I'll listen to those ecstatic giggles and possibly drown. Yeah, I'll definitely drown in a giant pot of honey, milk and vanilla, and possibly chocolate since it's your favorite. Your flaws always invited me in, even when my instincts didn't. I knew you'd the best and worst type of addiction the moment I stepped in, but I couldn't pull myself away not because it was so hard, it was probably the hardest but because I didn't want to. Somebody like you only comes once a millennium and the second I stared your smile for just a little bit too long, I knew this is my chance, this is my escape, my addiction and my way out. This is my muse, the walls of my heart sang and when I heard similar melodies from your heart, it was like the fourth of July, like Christmas, like Eid inside me. Everybody was happy, and I still remember how you smiled then and how you smile now. You grew gorgeous every passing seconds and I don't know what wo

Incomplete..... Just as my life.

I always wonder about why people say that the time after 1 am is the hardest one. And I wonder why people always make confessions during that time. And I always wonder about why people get sad and nostalgic during these hours. I always think about why would you think about a person at these hours when you are totally free, why not when you are totally busy and amidst this busyness of this world? It would just simply imply that whatever you had with whomever the person, it was during leisure and alone time. That would just imply that whatever you had, love, lust, friendship, relationship or I don't want to put a label on it, was weak. The bond you had was weak. Missing somebody at leisure hours is something anybody can do, like literally anybody. Remembering somebody, wanting somebody, desiring something in your leisure time, what's the bravery in that? What's the speciality in that? Why would it make that person happy or at all? There is nothing so outstanding in it. Why w
