Dear Fidato

I will never understand how a distant faded memory sneaks its way into your mind on a perfectly busy day and just refuses to let go.
I will never understand how no matter what the current dynamics of the relationship, glimpses of what 'once had been' visit you especially when you least expect it...sometimes in days, sometimes in months and sometimes in years.

Some emails stayed undeleted...
Some letters remained unburnt...
Some conversations got permanently archived...
Some precious imprints got etched in the memory...
and you and me, I guess in some far away recess of my tired mind, we are always there---loving each other, hating each other, at logger heads with each other...or perhaps in perfect harmony with one another.
 I do not know if memories are excuses to break away from the rest of the world. If they are, then perhaps you are helping me.
Some relations will forever remain inscrutable. Some people, forever indispensable.

Maybe, just maybe, in some parallel universe, you and me are still together. laughing at the confusion between us in the here and now.

Some relationships are painfully divine like that. Maybe in a parallel world you two are. Hope it happens even here.

So poignant and so incredibly relatable. I fantasize about escaping into that parallel world almost every alternate conscious moment. And it is mostly a certain set of memories that I want to escape from.

Beautiful post. :)

Now don't you worry for what isn't there, if it isn't, hey, it isn't. But when does the heart listen, it's an unruly child.

You write things that I seem to have inside my head but am unable to pen down in the right words.
But you do it so wonderfully well. :)
