The faint music of Cher goes on in the background. The track Believe.. Cher goes on.. Do you believe in love after love.. Do you belive in life after love.. ! His mind is disturbed suddenly. Not for the first time though. He knows this feeling so well by now, one of a deep hollow. A void. An irrepairable loss.
When he split with his significant other, the albatross around his neck was hung!
His eyes close, though not forcing to recollect the images and words, the scenes from a distant memory come back in a flash.
Months have passed since then, but it just seems like yesterday. He recollects with great fondness the playful times of the past, the-lack-of-responsibility-cool-head that he had, the cheerfulness every single morning, the lack of Monday morning blues, the patience and the help-everybody attitude, and most importantly, the sense of accomplishment, the feeling of having won something priceless, that used to cloud his personality those memorable days...
And the ever-smiling happy face that he has today, only to mask his deep void within, that has so much become a part and parcel of his life ever since...
Many a tear bag in the eye has dried up, many a vein has been dissected, but all in vain!
He needs something as drastic as the Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind to be inflicted upon him.
He understands that if you really want to attach yourself, attach yourself to your goals, not people or things. Only his head understands logic. Not his heart.
He wants to put up a statutory warning like the one on cigarette packs, for the ones who are living his past, and are most likely to live his present too, sometime in their future.
As these flashes of form a lump in his throat, he opens his eyes. But The Memory Remains.

I wonder who would dare to break the heart of the great PrashantJI...:)
All characters in the blog are fictitious and any resemblance to real characters is purely co-incidental
full blogging and all you've started off...
Thats such a late confession bout the characters being fictitious. Probably you should have started of your "blog" with the disclaimer. Anyways why would one think of writing a blog in these lines unless such a train of thoughts come across or rather simply would say experience. anyways its just an opinion. may b i have exaggerated the idea.
why cant it be read as a mere story, the way it was written...
Shit da, still sulking eh.. told u come to mocha.. all problems will be solved :P
A story is written to either convey a message, to allow ppl to think or for mere entertainment purpose. i have hardly come across blank stories which have no ends or beginings. from my understanding , this is something which you are trying to convey and hence its hard to be read as a mere story cos for one thing am sure this does not entertain! no hard feelings
Some stories are comic, some are tragic. Some people enjoy tragedy, and some do not.
very well written prazu... very explicitly expressed. good stuff...
happy blogging! :)
The write up is very very touchy.It just shows how hurt you are.I hope the person responsible for this really reads this.
It very well expressed.may wounds heal up soon!
“The self-same moment I could pray ;
And from my neck so free
The Albatross fell off, and sank
Like lead into the sea.”
The Mariner's curse is lifted when he sees sea creatures swimming in the water. Suddenly, as he manages to pray, the albatross falls from his neck and his “guilt” is partially expiated.So the character in ur piece of writing is feeling guilty of sumthing?? Well I jus say so because of the above comment given by sumone who feels bad for the character which according to the albatross example puts ur “significant other” in a much more pitiful situation than the writer.Yes the albatross was hung around the captains neck cuz he chose to kill it...he knew it will bring him bad luck...in a life time there are many decisions that a man takes..some result in happiness and sum in despair. If there was no sadness one would not know the true meaning of happiness. We can relate with this sentence with the character who is looking back at times and actually cherishing those happy moments. Which is a very good thing.And talking abt love.." If you love something, set it free. If it comes back, it was, and always will be yours. If it never returns, it was never yours to begin with”
The character shoud move on…
Truly appreaciting your comments, I would like to add that every story has a happy ending. If it is not happy, it is still not the end!
