"LOVE, a four letter simple word but the meaning it holds can never be measured" they say, but honestly the word never really weighed any meaning for me.

"A word" that's what it was to me, but to the world it wasn't.
Strange! a lot of people has different opinion on things strange as love.

Some says "it is painful, pure, sweet all at once."
Some says "the meaning it carries cannot be described or measured."
Some says "it is the best feeling in the whole world" and I wonder to myself "How can it be so many things all at once?".

Some even beliefs that LOVE is something "you can't live without" and I can't help but scoff at that, I mean-
       I thought the only thing one can't live without in the world are oxygen, food, water, shelter, clothes, cellphones and sometimes "whiskey" but LOVE?
I don't think it's something one can't live without.
People just love to exaggerate and throw words at each other,because truth be told I am a human and I can live just fine without it!
Or so I thought.....

Universe has a funny way of proving us wrong,isnt it? specially to arrogant jerks like me.
I think there's someone up there who has taken an oath to make me suffer and prove me wrong in every stage of my life,because no way on earth would they just send an angel into my life out of nowhere for nothing.

An angel,who had me at her first sight.
An angel,who's so pure that I am afraid this cruel world will end up tainting her.
An angel,who I want to protect with everything in me and above all~
An angel without whom I think I'd go insane. Cheesy? Not really! because as I Stand here staring just right at the angel in front of me I see my whole life.
An angel, just my angel.....

She came like a wind into my life without any heads up and awoke a storm in me,a storm that I don't think will ever be calmed.

Before her~ my life was all about Me,My family,My friends....,Me! but ever since she walked into my world looking like a dream, with the chime of her anklets evertime she took a step~ since then my life has been all about her without me realising it.

The heart that I didn't know existed suddenly started to beat at a wild speed,the feelings that I made fun of became my reality, the lifestyle I lived and adored all my life suddenly made no sense, the feeling I was immune to or atleast I thought i was-consumed the whole me and most importantly the Me that I was so proud of,I now began to question.

What in the world is this feeling?
Was this what they call Love?!
But how could this happen to me? To the great Manik Malhotra?

How ironic! The word that i laughed at all my life was now laughing at me
and i cant't help but laugh on the realisation and so aswell on my fate.

Whoever said "karma is a bitch" deserved a raise.

Karma has a surprising way of taking care of things.
Ergo,here we are.!

There are times when i think that i must be overthinking and all this is just an attraction and it would be gone as soon as it came but then i see her-and I end up asking myself "who was i kidding?!"

But why does it have to be now? Why would you bring her into my life NOW?

Why not sooner?
