If Only

If only he were here!! If only I could walk with him on these lanes and hear his laughter in this cool breeze. The winds shared my thoughts, and touched my hair playfully. Life is just not the same anymore, I realized. I missed Him. It is Ok, I kept telling myself, work is priority, after all I have my whole life to be spent in his company. Just a matter of few months and then everything would be just fine!! It would definitely be difficult but not impossible. I felt guilty, after all I was with my parents and I ought to enjoy home, very soon I would be leaving them and going, I was happy here but something always seemed amiss. I used to enjoy with everyone but no matter what, my eyes always seemed to search for someone. I kept telling myself, he didn't have to be physically with me for me to feel good, after all I see him everyday in my heart, but was that all so easy? How I wish I could just see him once. How I wish I could hold His strong hands and let myself melt in His strong arms. How I wish I could just keep looking at His beautiful eyes for ever and forget the world around me. Why was i supposed to wait for so long to be with my beloved. Why was life being so unfair to me.

Flowers don't seem beautiful anymore, the rivers don't seem to sing beautiful songs anymore. The chirping of the birds do not bring along any news these days. I am awaiting his return alas, he is nowhere to be seen. If only i could have a glimpse of Him. If only I could hear his sweet voice once.

"Hey Giridhara where are you?? Darashan Dena Praan Piyare....", her voice trailed off. People thought she was crazy, a princess she had all she could ever dream for , yet she kept running after Krishna. Nobody really understood her love for her Krishna. Her love was no less than Gopis. Such was the love of Meera Bai!!!
