The Message…..
“Is that papa ?”, she pointed at the brightest star in the night sky.
I looked at her eyes clothed in innocence and face lined with expectation.
“What do you think?”, I knelt down and took her cheeks in mine.
“ Papa always winks at me”, she shrugged , looking at the star.
And the star blinked once !

“Is that you?”, I whispered to the bright light that shone before my eyes.
I tried to feel the warmth of that ball of light by putting out my hands towards it.
Suddenly I felt a glow on me and a warmth from inside.
Yes, this was him.
I felt him grow inside me...
Bliss !

Misfit who ?
"You're so much of a misfit, I wish I hadn't married you", he said.
"You've killed the life of my dreams, you can never help me achieve them", his voice echoed across the room.
She sat huddled in the corner, her tears flowing silently, washing away her stories of sacrificed love, dreams and unspoken desires.
