As I drifted off shore with eyes soaked in the glittering tears of memories that thousand nights of togetherness have created, they were too reluctant to let me go. But I must— a voice inside me is whispering to my ears and forcing me to overlook the laughter we shared, the love we showered on.
I looked at the horizon with a shimmering hope of leaving the nostalgia behind, but the seagulls crying in a distant place hovering over a fishing boat to collect the bounty of leftovers is reminding me of how you were complaining about them stealing your ice cream the other day on the pebble beach.
Damn thief— you shouted and I laughed and laughed only to realise later you are about to explode in anger as I said they did a good job picking on you. You were not aware, but the rosy cheeks reminded me of why I fell in love with you in the first place. And blended with your dark hair, I could easily endorse how beautiful you are!
Believe me, my heart moaned with the composition of beauty you behold; spread over every curve, every wrinkle following your birthmark in the upper arms.
It took me a while to come to my senses as I was lured into your youthful charm; my inner self was captivated by the disgust your facial expression expressed— untethered like a dead river wrapped in dense hyacinths but bustling with millions of dancing flowers.
Will you please pass me a tissue— your appeal reached my ears as sirens calling me to submit myself in your arms without resistance. Stilled by the sweetness of your enchanting voice, my heart stopped beating for the time being, lest they fail to turn your tone into a symphonic tune. Stop staring at me for god’s sake— you wiped the ice cream in my shirt and said, is that better now; as the grin on my face was getting wider and wider.
Should I buy you another— I asked, but without nodding to my request, you snatched mine, saying— how about you buy one for yourself. Trust me, I wished I had hundreds of them in my hand.
With that ice cream in hand, you unleashed the childish self you tried to hide in yourself and excitedly started the story of a Robin nesting in the tree of your campus. But soon, it turned into a rant about why I didn’t have any story to share with you.
And I literally didn’t have one, not even to this date— as I am a listener and could sense you have stories to tell, thousands of them. Being a mindful listener, you never found it disappointing to share your excitement with me— a memory I will cling to my last breath, weakened by packs of cigarettes.

Oh my! What a heartening post bro! 🥺
You know, I was reserving this one for a special moment. This morning I can't leave my bed for some physical pain so I track down your post like a kid goes for his favourite chocolate.. and guess what, this piece just made my day!
It was worthy enough to save!
My dark cheek is blushing sis 😀
Thankful to you for this juicy compliment.
Anyway, guessing it's seasonal sickness, hope you will be alright soon, InshaAllah.
I'm swooning over this heartwarming post. Such beautiful memories of a loved one to hold onto. You have a way with words and this is well written! 🙂

Aww....thank you for your complimenting words. Love brings tons of memories; some are lost in turmoil but what remains is worth enough to live for another century to tell the tale. Thank you for your time reading and commenting on the post. Take love.

wow 😶 such heartwarming sensation.
It just feels amazing to feel it this way even without being returned
With nothing to fight over but a heartfelt yearning for rejoining, sometimes one-sided or even distant relationship works better than the conventional one. Thank you for your valuable opinion, ma'am 😊
Darn you got my gene there I see!
Aren’t you my মেলায়-হারায়ে-যাওয়া-ছোটোভাই 😂
হ রে বইন

You are a great story teller bro, did I ever tell you that? you should be on some wooden shack high up in the mountains, writing just for the sake of writing and not worrying about anything else in the world. Thats the only thing you should be doing bro. Nothing else.
I, too, have this pure intention to live my life without doing anything but speaking my heart out through words. But you know, not everybody is born as privileged as Rabindranath. :(
But I am trying. Although I am happy with only a few posts so far, I believe I have more to unleash. The rest will depend on how far I can stretch my imagination uninterrupted by materialistic demands.
Thank you bro, your compliment means a lot to me. 💜
i too believe you have more left. so much more to be real bro. and perhaps someday if the universe aligns, youll do it, and we will be there to witness it:)
💜💜
Back in mermaid you asked me how can you improve your writings. I think about that question every time I read your post and I get embarrassed. Because I'm not good enough make suggestions to you. You were already far beyond that.
I knew you were a humble gentleman, but I never thought it would come out this way. You make me feel pressurised, a diplomatic wanting to squeeze out what's inside without even asking so. 😁😁
Thank you for your inspiration bhai; keep guiding, please. 🤜🤛
Nyn bhai, What a writing! I wish, if i could write this way 🙂.
you've already passed a significant step, which is, you can write.
next, read essays with sensory words, you will find them online. draft your imagination and then, visualise them through sensory details. you can do it too. 🙂
Damn model damn.. you made me speechless :'))
How beautifully such a feeling can be narrated! Absolutely stunning, bhaia 😍
Thank you very much for your compliment, stay tuned :)
