Traveler, Coffee and Rain

Decision Process

The way he said those words to me

and the feelings that were floating in his eyes,

made my heart melt instantly.......

         Yes, it was easier to think to go with him

         and travel the world by being on his side as a queen

         I so wanted to say yes, right away 

         that I even thought of writing letter to my folks

         of my sudden departure....

But no words made their way through my lips

as I just starred at his beautiful face.

He smiled and said 

"I will wait....but now as the rain has stopped,

please give me the permission to leave."

I just nodded and saw his back as he retreated....

He turned around to bid me  

and it hit me as a knife stabbed directly in the heart

 that this was the last I would see him.

                  He read my face and knew what fear I scared

                  and same reflection I could see 

                  Yet he smiled again, turned around to not look back again..

It was very dangerous plight,

I was in between love and life

though my heart yearned to be his

my mind fought for the reasons of rationality...

               That night was hard to sleep 

               even if I had one day to think.....

                It was the decision, hard to make, 

              with only a single day left......

It rained on Thursday too....

I had you with me to clear my thoughts

but still his face came back in my closed eye slots..........

            I made a coffee, and sat near the window

            hearing the sound of clashing rain droplets

            shot directly from skies like life bows.....

The coolness in the air

along with the warmth of coffee

I now reached to the final decision...

As it was life changing one

I decided to think as a grown woman

and do what was right in this situation....
