Our Vows

I remember….

The first time I saw you

All you have always been

To which I’ve been blind to

That father saw….but I couldn’t see

A man of wisdom

A man with a soft heart

You wear perseverance

Like a tailor’s suit…..

You’re the emblem of patience

How sweet it is to know….

That I am with someone who came For me even when

He couldn’t yet see beauty….

But saw only my future….

Someone who will still find me Beautiful with stretch marks even as we age

The spirit that you bring

Refused to be quenched by my

Silly self and Childish attitudes

Staring at your soul…and beautiful

Spirit

That gives its all and calls me

Family; though i’m not blood.

There is where I fell in love

I fell!

I’m consumed!

I’m overwhelmed!

Did you know that I’m

crazy- overwhelmed!

I vow in marriage

That at times I’ll fail you

I vow

That at times I will fall short

But in failures and shortcomings

I won’t tap out

I won’t give up

To you and only you

Today I commit

To you and only you

I submit

I’ve learnt that he loved me

Enough to give me you

Even when I couldn’t see you

So I’m willing to stay strong

To the very end.

Break Up

Only emotions can describe it

Only the heart of true lovers

Can know its true fear

It’s true pain

It’s true terror

Don’t tell me you understand

When you’ve not spent a night

Rolling under the sheets seeking

The face of sleep that is determined

To allude your pain stricken soul

Till dawn breaks

Over your sighing heart

Don’t tell me you understand

The fear in the heart of a man

– paralyzed

That predisposes him to driving

Mad at midnight

In a miserable t- shift worn inside out

The fear

That predisposes him to farting

Unconsciously in front of his lady

Yet to be ex

– His brain cells interpret the action

As the least important thing

In the world

The fear

That predisposes him to kneeling

On a rocky ground oblivious and

Stoic to any pain but that of the heart

Rapturing at the prospect of a breakup

In the face of this

Day still breaks

And life goes on

Without our permission

The world’s duty calls…

And we must respond

Howbeit with lifeless eyes

For the world is now devoid

Of joy In her eyes

And life suddenly has no

Meaning in his eyes….

If only all could be untrue

So our hearts could

Be blinded to the events of pain

And we could love against the pain

Kiss against the Hurt

And choose to stay inspite

Of the odds

Forgive me…

If I can’t….

It’s over….

It’s definitely over.

                    – that was how sure I was

In memorial to a breakup that almost occurred.

On this day I Vow…..

​ 

I remember….

The first time I saw you

All you have always been

To which I’ve been blind to

That father saw….but I couldn’t see

A man of wisdom

A man with a soft heart

You wear perseverance

Like a tailor’s suit…..

You’re the emblem of patience

How sweet it is to know….

That I am with someone who came For me even when

He couldn’t yet see beauty….

But saw only my future….

Someone who will still find me Beautiful with stretch marks even as we age

The spirit that you bring

Refused to be quenched by my

Silly self and Childish attitudes

Staring at your soul…and beautiful

Spirit

That gives its all and calls me

AND THE Silence reigns on………..

​

I have gone these days without you 

Because I dare my soul 
To be independent
I dare my body to be independent
I loathe to be addicted to
Another soul
To the point I can’t breathe
Without him

I will not
Will not succumb to the sweeping
Images of you
That still flood my mind
Ever too frequently
If I let my hands and brain go idle

I will not succumb to feeling
Guilty
And being the one to end this
Silence

Yes a relationship is about sacrifice
Been a fool for love’s sake
But I will not
Because should you ever repeat
This act
I know I will have no option
Than to bury my heart in
Pain and endure

And that is why this is
My only one chance to let you
Know
What you did was not okay
And is never acceptable on
Any day

And should you ever repeat it
Let your heart and mind
Be prepared for the wrath
Of your woman
Till then
Let the silence continue……

I hate it when we’re not talking….and I know I’m being childish…and he is expecting and giving me more time and room to mature before his anger descends….and yet I’m as stubborn as Natasha…..coz if I’m right I will never say I’m wrong! I won’t!

When is it best to use Silent Treatment as a way of handling a problem in a relationship?

If you’ve tried it before you will know that the familiar hours of the day when you two chat or check up on each other will come…but they will come without him or her ….and that will make you sick. Then you find yourself struggling with either- handling the sick feeling and overcoming it or just ending the silence. Depending on how angry you are or how you feel about the situation; you will choose one of the two options.

Many a times I have found that silent treatment only tends to stretch on miscommunication and we only get to find out and iron things out when we finally talk. Yet somehow I’m addicted to using silent treatment when I get angry and I know I must stop!

I think silent treatment is only needed if you’re the short tempered type and are likely to say things before thinking- things you will regret but can’t take back- with this the silent treatment might help you.
