Not just another girl in the metro!



She is
broken,
alone,
hurt.

Her thoughts are
abused,
killed,
battered.

Her regrets
visible,
irrepairable,
true.

Yet her eyes expressed
wishes,
hopes,
dreams,
light.

Wrote this as text on my phone, while travelling in Delhi Metro from Preet Vihar to Pragati Maidan to meet a friend. There was this girl standing right opposite to me in tears. Call me weird, but I started typing something on my phone and after every three words I stared at her to find more words and expressions. And after sometime she noticed me doing that, and asked me if I found her funny. I showed her what I typed on my phone, and she just gave me back a hidden smile. No, we didn’t talk after that, I got down at Pragati Maidan, but she was not just another face, as I looked at her deep eyes for one last time!

And no, soul-mates won't be missed ..if they are to happen in ones' life; they will. We won't have to make an effort! :)

Know how that feels. Every time I spot a crying face in a crowd, I feel the urge to reach out, with words that is.

@Meher -
Hmm. And at times, words won't be enough to describe your feelings.

Thanks :) Though you know, I never try observing people, but emotions attract me very strongly!
