Wishes and Hopes


I wish words could contained this,
I wish spaces rented their vacancy to this.

I hope question marks don't question this,
I hope exclamations keep adding the amazement,
I hope ampersands keep this joined, forever, a pair eternally joint.
I hope commas won't pause this and fullstops won't stop this.

I want this to go on, till the end of the universe,
The end of time.
Wishes and Hopes,
They never die.
I hope this never dies.

I don't even know what 'this' is. I can't point it out in a group of 'this'es. But maybe, if I have to, I'll point right at you.

Before I forget, Farewell!


I am writing this 11 days before I leave, lest I should forget.
I want to thank you for all you've given me, a place to boast of, a lovely atmosphere and all the other amazing things a city can give, the uniquely amazing things you won't find in any other city.
Its that brief time for which I won't be with you, just another inch of time in that huge time vortex. I will miss you, Hyderabad. 
I've breathed my first breath here and every 'first' of mine was done in your presence. This is the unique thing about you, no other city will give me that now. 

I have had all the happy moments and sad moments and the 'Happy though sad' moments in this city. I now finally have a reason to call you HOME. 

I want to leave parts of you and I'm happy that I'm leaving them. I also have parts that I want to take with me and I'm sad that I'm leaving them behind. But, its not to happen that way, right? Just take care of everything I hold precious here. 
Just take care of them. 

I'm sorry! These are those farewell letters where the protagonist really does not know what to say, but has to say it either way. You deserve a better farewell. 

But, just be good! Live long and prosper, you beyouty!! :D
