Coffee And The Rain

It's been a while since I've roamed around the streets with not a care in the world. It's been a while since I swore to kill anyone who pushed me in the crowded bus. It's been a while since that Coffee from the college canteen steamed in front of me while the gang ranted on. Yes... It's been a while too long... Now you're just humming the tune of your favourite song during the rain... Getting up a little late than usual...  Eating at odd hours... Makes me wonder if we would miss being bored once life went back to normal... Wake up... Go to work... Come back home so tired you barely talk.....  Isn't that what people do? Forget what they have and cherish what will never be... I for one want to cherish this time till it lasts... I want to be bored to the bone that all I do is roam around the house aimlessly... Going from the bedroom to the hall would be an adventure of its own... Yes, it's been a year... But whatever happened to being a child at heart... __...

Every single day now I wake up to the same walls... The streets are a scene out of the 'I am legend' movie... I can't move out... I can't see my friends  or taste that Lemon tea I get from the Canteen... I've learnt to love these walls though... These yellow walls seem to fade each passing day... Revealing their secret to me one step at a time... They echo my thoughts.. They know.. better than anyone the tears and the laughs being shed... Apollo could sing to them and they would still be silent... Sometimes leaning onto them makes me feel safe... It seems weird, doesn't it... But they know.. and they keep it a secret... They hold me when the rain is too loud... They listen to me singing at the top of my voice and don't judge... I remember that just a year ago, they were strangers... Now... they are family too... It's like Oedipus finally knows his mother... They have a song for those who are ready to listen... They know what to tell you when you feel dow...
