Don’t really want to sleep tonight. I would rather…
1. Stay up all night and wait for the rains to fall once again. I don’t know what is with a downpour that drives me insane every time. May be it’s the wind that touches you haphazardly, or the rain drops and the snatched urgency with which it falls, or may be the lightning and its heated ardor or may be the alacrity of people running for shelter while you enjoy every bit of the mayhem, I don’t know what, that makes my romantic reverie go on and on….
2. Or may be I’d complete a half red novel tonight. I used to do it when I was younger. The carefully covered, sexily romantic pictured, doctor nurse love stories of Mills n Boons would safely be hidden below pillows on my bed, and then stealthily taken out once the house fell asleep. However, habits change with time and slowly sleep becomes dearer with progressing age….sigh!!
3. How I wish that I could roam around the city all night and return home with the rising sun the next morning… tired…unsteady…sleepy … intoxicated,with the city lights, late night traffic, the solitude of a sleeping metropolis….staying up with the darkness within the people in it…
4. Or may be just talk to P….all night…without parents shouting…without cell phn’s getting discharged, without us running out of balance, without bumping into sleep…..without falling short of words…without feeling out of love…
Drained sighs….
Good night.
