CREDIT TO SELF

                   Its 2 A.M. I know I have to sleep to get up early to pick up my journal and study. The room feels cold, the darkness disturbs my sleep. I see this thin white ray of light hitting the wall and I get up. My headphones on, my eyes red. I go through my twitter page, I see 2 of my colleagues tagging and tweeting! They are best friends in their own way. They have seen worse, said worse , done worse. have abused each other and yet today they love each other. The friendship of Blair and Serena in gossip girl , Silver and Adriana in 90210 hits my brain. It batters the weak heavy heart that is beating within those caged-webbed-veined body of mine. There is one song that is playing constantly. It might just be the 10th time I am hearing it. Avoiding those spectacles I run down to the red painted room downstairs and throw myself on that soft bed. The only lines I can concentrate of that one song playing are " don't cry for your love, cry tears of joy 'cuz your alive, cradled in love"
                  
             I feel the cold wind that's invisibly comforting me. I feel the winter coming. I love winter! But I can't smile. I am still staring at the ceiling thinking what do I need? What distracted me the whole day? I couldn't read, I couldn't study the whole day! I met this old friend I always wanted to. Things ain't falling the way they were suppose to. I spoke to the person, I feel so much for! Why am I pushing him away? Why don't I just let him go? This weak person is not me. I have faced worse. Got over the most painful moments. Something that is just running away from me.. Something I wish to have but I can't! Is it love? Is it that friendship I missed for those three years? There is a lot hidden behind those crooked gates of my heart I wish to remove. There are words which wave everyday till the tip of my tongue to escape but they don't. There are random wasted tears which come out with deep pain. Drip without stopping, giving me a painful headache with sour vibrations every random minute. I sit with a couple of people, they ain't strangers they are my friends. People I have known but I don't feel the smile I have. Not Like I did for those temporary months. Not like those temporary years. I see people I have known, I have pushed them away, they are happy with their friends. There was a time I was something which has turned me to nothing now.
             

         I feel like this another person who is just nothing standing with those 100 humans who are something. I feel wasted. I feel alone! I do have a few voices saying that they are something to me but yet it makes me empty.
        
        My eyes wish to cry in front of that one person who understands every bad thing I ever did, my head needs a shoulder to rest that warms me saying " it happened, just let it go" my heart craves for that one friend I have always been to somebody who has never hated for anything but just understood. My voice wishes to scream that I too deserve to be that lucky girl who deserves happiness.


     Today, I feel neglected, avoided, disowned. Today, I can't blame the bad to take over the good side of me. It has not changed the love and care I have for people who have been a part of my life somehow. Today, I still beg to the world, I am not bad, I haven't done anything to hurt anybody.
    

      I wipe these tears, walk to the kitchen, boil water, add coffee & milk. Pour it in that Starbucks mug. I come sit and smile. Sip the coffee and just realize, I am my best friend. Because no matter what I did , I do and I wish to do, I shall accept it and stand for that every result I get for my every step on this little lane of my life. I still stand in the middle of this narrow lane, where I see brown mountains around I once sketched at the age of 12, I see those thorny plants and also the greenery those cactus plants give to the road I need to walk on. That little puddle of water flowing and I say.. " The journey is long! "
