Lady Love

This is when Sarika dumped me for good, I was hit hard by her moving out of my life…there was no point for me to stay back in New Delhi; so I returned back to my home-town, Siliguri. Like they say, “Bari-er chele bareete phire chole esshechee…” For a change, I went to Puri for some emotional upliftment, misfortune followed me there too; I was almost drowned in the sea, when some local kids saved me out…Like they say misfortune comes in bundle…so very true in my case too; even before I could recover from this setback, my health broke down to the extent of paralyzing the right portion of my body, I was bed ridden for almost 8 months; life was real miserable for me at that point of time. Nothing but tears used to roll down my cheeks when visitors at home used to pity my condition and their passé`(s)…my family left no stones unturned to get me back to normalcy - the old shoulders that are supposed to be taken care off were carrying me instead - my tears were making silent revolt against all the odds.

And one fine day, God was real kind on me; He gave me reason to live one more time; He gave me Dipa… It is the blessings of my parents, God, my siblings, well-wishers and Dipa that I am back on my feet now. Only those who witnessed/shared that phase of my life, know what went through and are really happy to see me now.

Just when I regained sense in my arms and could scribble down something, I penned this one, a small way to say thanks to my Lady Love…

“There was a time in my life when I was all torn out…
And then out of my blues you came in my life
Like an angel does; with the magic touch
You stood by me when the going was not so good
I knew I was in love with you…
O yeah…………

Hold me on… love me long…
Baby, I wanna let you know how much you mean to me
Hold me on… love me long…
Baby, I wanna let you know how much you mean to me !!! “
