A Try

A Story

a midday thought to give it a try
A try she never knew she needed
The one she deserved
A ring with an engraved hug
Bound far deeper than the circle it graces.
Structured sanity to her mundane insanity
And fine wine to her sobered soul.
a try that she gave him,
and in return, got everything mentioned before.
parting through her ways of life
a clear incompleteness yet ignorance
A constant imagery, comparisons, and 11:11 wishes.
She was all right- or so she convinced herself.
Through hollow bookshelves I see her,
she won't stop talking, nor do I want to stop listening
very unknown but yet known in my urge to 'bag her'
That is how he described her
Oh did you see him?
Who?
The guy right beside.
Hmmm
oh, a guy who tried his best not to smile
a mirror would have made him aware of his rosy bloom and coy curved smile.
if he had looked up she would have known it all
That's how she described him.
a random stroll, an endless scroll
Every sunrise was vibrant tranquillity and set as connectivity.
Roads discovered, Pathways southward
Commonalities discussed, and bucket lists aligned.
'oh I read your blog'
'how about a cup of brew'
That is how they described everything new.
She, the joy from the show she had never watched
He, the shoulder that she ever called
one entangling day, fatiguing for both
Unaware,
that one hug would unravel the day and
ignite the dawn of all that's yet to come.
For what's ahead was a conscious decision.
Reminiscing upon one day,
as their footprints dug through
their hearts nurtured there
much beyond the endless blues
And deeper in the sand, they walked.
Pouring hearts out
they felt it
by the seashore.
The sea heard their beats.
They both did.
A try. Hmm
little did she know
The bittersweet joy of smiling,
knowing he weeps to brighten her day.
The acute feeling of ‘deficiency’ when not finding his ray.
It's an update that feels like she lived his day.
He's the actual gold, keeping her world from turning gray.
Too precious to possess, and even more to confess.
A feeling best said in Shayaris, yet felt in every line she claims.
Inflicting her newly adapted comic self and yet being down to earth,
it's not a try anymore, but a bold declaration just made.
Lost in the wilds, not knowing what she sought for
in a search for pahado ke uss paar wali duniya,
she realized it was just the 94.5% perfect him
For she, the 5 '5, that completed them.
