Of partings and meetings

Bend in the road..... My favorite chapter from my favorite book..
The chapter that told about subtle reconciliations, of incipient relations, of things to look forwad to.....
But the bends are not just grounds (rather spots) for these meetings.....They can be for parting as well....so painful, so unwanted and yet so profound and intense....They are so difficult.. the last bye, the misty eyes, the unknown age, time, the numerous uncertainities...
the road that you both travelled together.. sharing the heat, the spring, the voices that you heard together..the leaves that crumpled beneath ..... but there lies before you.; the bend, the road diverting into two.....and you know it would be years before they converge.. the steps are hard but they have to be taken,,the words are many,,but can hardly be spoken...the emotions are overflowing...and they can hardly be curbed...But what flows unrestrained, unbridled is the wish, the prayer, the belief that come what may, the roads will cross, the meetings would happen, but untill then we continue to walk our way, without the others support, basking in our joys but still waiting to meet the other back once again !!

P.S. This is for u dear abhivayakti
