Up, Close and Personal !!

12:45 AM, May 11, 2009

It was 10:00 AM. Wet hair, towel wrapped, ironed clothes on bed, silver eye pencil ready, favorite perfume dying to be held and lovely Cinderella sandals waiting to lift me up, et al. Yeah, I am going on a date with him. He's at the longest but last red light between us. It's gonna take him another 15 minutes to hold me in his arms. I become pretty, go down the stairs and look at my handsome man waiting for me to touch his cheeks with mine and say "Hi!" in his ears. I do. We go for a nice mushy romantic flick. We sip coffee. We talk a little. We go for a drive. We reach for horizon. We encounter an old fort. We enter. We sit at a cozy corner. We hold hands. We talk. We come close. We come closer. We kiss!!! The eyes closed, the heads tilted, the fingers interlocked, the legs crossed... Everything seems perfect. Suddenly, the hot kiss turns hotter. No, it turns warmer. It's not the passion burning. But, my eyes were dying to reach out to my lips so they just poured a thin droplet of water. Yes, my tears made the kiss hotter. He didn't ask anything. He just held my face and touched my forehead with his lips. I start to weep all the more. He says he loves me and hates to see me cry. He licks one of my lucky tears. And smiles. I smile too. He feels happy to see my smile. Now he asks for the reason. I am quiet and I look down. He comfortably adjusts my cheeks into his palms and asks me again. I cry even more. I say I am gonna miss him. He hugs me. Wipes my tears, place my twigs behind my ears and says "Explain what you just said!" And I go speechless again!!

Love, actually?!?

Are we done? Are we separated already? We aren't we into each other like we used to? Does he know my intentions? Why am I not able to do this to him? Why am I ignoring him when he's with me? Why am dying to be with him while he ignored me? Why I miss him when da cool breeze strikes my hair and goes from my ears to my nape? Why do I feel it's him hugging me from behind? Why I detach myself when he actually does that? W..H..Y..??????????
