How does it feel...


How does it feel when...

U know it's ur friend's birthday
And the friend is important in a very special way

U know u have to call and wish
And do something other than the usual cliche

U know u have to make it crazy
And not sit around like a pig so lazy

U even know what to do
And make it a day that saw us start anew

U know u wanna do this more than any of the million assignments lighting a stove under ur backside
And get that delightful feeling of having followed ur heart,

U know u can make this happen
And make up for all that happened when u were smitten

U know it's the presence of those memories that's making u float
And making your heart swell

U know this is the one thing u'll wanna do that day
if that's all u can do that day
and it's ur last day on earth

And then u realize...

The friend is important in a special way
But she would tear u apart if she could find a way

U have to do something other than the usual cliche
But trying to do even that is making you say "How I wish..."

U shouldn't sit around like a lazy pig
But if u did anything more, u'll be the lady's nasty li'l bug

U want to make it a day that saw you start Anew
But within a minute of you logging in to Facebook, she disappears as if on cue

U want that delightful feeling of having followed your heart
But doing just that is what has led to this fateful part

U want make up for all that happened
But even a word about it can bring the universe crashing down

U want this to be the last thing you do if that day is to be THE day
But realize you might not get to do it even till your eventual day of reckoning...

How does it feel?

"If you can fill every unforgiving minute with 60 seconds worth of distance run, yours will be the Earth, and whats more, you will be a man my son" - Kipling said this and I doubt of there can be anythin more than can adequately describe what you can do to get thru ...

Wonderfully written .. I hope that someone, whoever it maybe, reads it ...

It is said that it is better to have loved and lost than loved at all. HOGWASH !!!

Always look on the bright side of life !!!
