You were never in any of my plans.You never existed a year ago to me.My life was all about me and my family and my career and my friends and my studies and my...oh well, my life was just a big fat MY.
I dont think I liked you so much when I met you.I dont think I ever dreamed of waking up to see a calm serene face as it sleeps every morning.I dont think I ever thought of putting someones name behind mine and thinking of how would it sound.
I never dreamed of waking up to someones kisses .I never dreamed of unrequited love in my life, for did I not think that all love is conditional?
I never thought I would ask for anyones opinion before I did a thing.Never thought I wont do something simply because he doesnt like it.I never thought I could ever be so selfless or so loving or so caring or so tender.
I never thought, I would ever pray HIM for someones longevity.I never thought I could want living my life with this one single man by my side forever.
I was never a traditional person.Was always a big time feminist.Friends still refer to me as Kiran Bedi and Phooloan Devi :). I never thought I could listen to one single man so much.Never thought someones opinion would matter so much.
But I do all that now.Every of the above things.Even now, when I write of you, I write about myself.Unseen, unheard, you crept up into my life and I see that I am, who I am now, all pretences shed.I see how it feels when someone has the power of bringing tears to your eyes.
For a life gone by, I have but one regret.Why did you not meet me earlier? Why did you make me wade through all the wrong people in the world before we met ?
Why did you not bring out the best in me earlier like you do now ? Why did you not come by sooner, so that I could understand what it means to say I love you and mean it and what it means craving to hear I love you and knowing that it is more than just a statement, that it is a promise, a committment, a lifetime, a sense of togetherness, something that says that I will forgo my happiness to see you happy.Why cant you be mine, in the next birth too ?
