She... A beautiful mirage





Here I sit by the riverside thinking about her. With each passing waves of water my thoughts and love for her only deepens. Her vivid thoughts are playing in my mind just like the fishes play while nibbling the algae. But unlike the green and brown algae I too have sweet and sour memories of her. 

She was no less than the water. She was powerful enough to drown me but was so soft to cleanse me and deep enough to submerge me in her.

But alas..! It was so childish of me to think that waves can remain stagnant at a place. Waves are meant to flow just like as same she trajected her path away from me. The more I tried to hold her in my arms the more swiftly she slipped just like the water. 

But with the passage of time everything started drying up, even the soil which once carried the beautiful sand grains were now on extinction just as my soul with her thoughts are on verge of extinction. 

The only thing which remains still wet are those eyes which still longes for her just as the desert longes for rains. But alas, the desert is no less childish than me as it doesn't understand that he can never have water. He's so devoid of water that all it has is a mirage. 

And yes now I know that perhaps she was a beautiful mirage which left me thinking along the riverside smiling and grinning those green and brown algae moments.
