About not being in love

and about being twenty...


I like being empty hearted. When there is no one whose name my heart murmurs every now and then, when there is nobody whose thoughts irk my mind all the time. I like being empty hearted. I am at peace when I am not in love. At peace with my internal complexities, and the complex world around me. The equilibrium that I have always tried to find, looks closer and more achievable.

When I am not in love, I am more unbiased about things in life. Where as when in love, it is my biggest preoccupation and never stops kidding around with my subconscious. It affects my perception of things, adding another pinch of melancholy to my already melancholic existence. When in love with somebody, the dearth of that person hurts so much that it is tough for me to get out of the solitary ordeal that I undergo, and sense some normalcy in life. There is a perennial heartache, which I want to come out of, because getting myself rid of love, looks anything but impossible and sinking deeper and deeper into it looks inevitable. The act of unloving apparently lies beyond the last blue mountain…

Being able to feel the sorrow of people is my forte. And being in love takes this elite trait of mine away from me. Love spoils me, wastes me, makes me a good-for-nothing fellow, a melancholic dumb fool, living in another world of which no one knows, and nor do I…love kills me…slowly, so that I can relish every bit of the pain, that I love and loss are endowed with.

Touch Wood! I am not in love. And may it be this way forever…God Bless me…Happy Birth Day To ME…And I am TWENTy~~~~~~

My Birthday wishes to U!!

Being not in love, though is an state of equilibrium.But I must say its quasi-static, means one never stays in the same state, and transit further to achieve next level of equilibrium.[:)]

U should never ever lose your forte, transit to the next equilibrium state.

wildflower said...

LIFE~
i fail to put down in a mere 4 words something as vast as this...i have a tendency to prolong things...and i jjust cant shorten them up :)
but for u...i l come up wid something gud enuf soon...

thinking is not active in ma case..its rather passive...things just settle down on ma mind like dust settles down on furniture.. so when i TRY and think about sumthing the product isnt as interesting as it wud have been had it come down passively! so i l let the full form of life strike me unawares...n that's y it l take time... :)

meanwhile..u keep replyin

wildflower said...

and as far as ur hint goes---sometimes things dont happen but you have to make them happen........

arvind said...

@sarah: r u want to say gals r alike?

D2 said...

Rather pessimistic thought, don't you think? I think it's a great feeling, though it's as bad as death when it doesn't work out. I guess it's obviously weird to deal with life when one moment your whole life almost revolves around a single person and the next leaves you at a loss of what to do.
