Sunshine and Roses, you say?

"Butterflies and rom-com you say?" Read the first line of Jai's "letter".

A love poem you asked, but can i invite you to peep into my mind instead?

You are the one who collects our little things, and me, well, mixed thoughts in a pot.

That one fine day, when you kept blaberring about your obsession of Rachel and Ross, I found myself in a suffocating box. Our interests do not match. And symmetrical hearts, you say?

And it still amazes me, how you went home with a little piece of my heart that day. All I know is that I met light, when your little fingers touched mine. Maybe this is, how the authors define love in your books.

Red roses, you ask? Can I offer you my playlist instead? Or can I play you something with my chords, while reminiscing about your scent?

You dream of having pancakes with me, on a Sunday morning, but I prefer us, to be on the rooftop at 5am. And maybe I'll just kiss you under the flawless transition of the sky from dark to lilac.

Wake up, you beautiful thing. You are my poem. Tell me, is this good enough for you?"

The cool breeze blew against his rosy cheeks and messy hair during his walk to the old bookstore down the street. Small laughter of happiness could be heard at a distance in the play yard, where children were enjoying their holidays and the sweet smell of freshly-baked bread was slowly invading the neighborhood. It was a typical perfect morning for Chard and the small alley to the bookstore felt like little steps to heaven. Then minutes later, reaching for the keys in his pockets, Chard quotes the famous romantic poet James Russell Lowell's line: "And what is so rare as a day in June? Then, if ever, come perfect days." Chard did his daily chores after opening his happy place and waited for the usual small crowd. The bookshop was a small vintage home of fiction and literature which had a ...

To the first crush..

To the handsome brown guy with a million dollar smile, Thank you for giving me all the butterflies in the small tummy, each time your eyes sparkled in the sun. Thank you for kicking out my Monday blues, while waiting for the bus in the chilled weather. You were my sunshine amidst the dusty morning rains. This little heart really believed you to be the charming prince in her improvised fairy tale; with no pretty gowns in antique castles but in between the fictional characters from the books she lived in. Irony fits right in, as the feelings decided to pour out into words after so many years... Yes! The same innocent adoring feelings which made me go speechless in front of you. How I wished, we had our own time, where it would all freeze in the moment. Thank you for giving me the simple days, where this little girl accepted to wake up one hour early just to have the gorgeous braided hair, adorned with her weird smile and eyes full of innocence. Thank you for making my mo...

The world of brewing thoughts in a cup of tea.
