My Emerald
"Mujhe ghar jana hai"
Isn't it funny that I fail to remember much of what you keep saying. I'm not sure. I find it beautiful.
But I remember that smile that you gave me from across three bench rows when I asked, "is it a date?"
I remember your pearls of laughter when we were sitting on the terrace of emaho and you were bitching about your physics teacher.
I remember the equations that seemed jibberish to me but it made you so happy to explain them to me (whatever that number to the power zero thing was, still didn't get it tbh)
I remember that ear to ear smile when I gave you the ringlace.
I remember that first kiss on my cheek.
I remember. I remember it all.
I remember my friends noticing the fact that I blushed while talking about you. I noticed it for the first time too.
Giddy in my tummy and crazy in my heart, you, have always managed to make me fall for you head over heels.
You have made me feel wanted, loved, happy, giddy, glad, overwhelmed, overjoyed etc etc etc after a long time.
Our silences when we talk on call never seem empty. They feel like they have meaning. My loud ass has toned itself down because you taught me how to appreciate silences and gaps.
Your voice sounds like music to me.
You can never hurt me. Even if you make a conscious effort. Yes, I do get pissed off but that's only because I'm a dumbass (and I'm sorry for that) and I don't know want to get pissed at and what not. Never think that you'd hurt me. In many manner. You're not someone who ruins and destroys. You're an artist who works and creates (I mean, look at the masterpiece called me you've modified so beautifully)
Your love, silent and quiet, has always been sufficient. Your voice has always comforted me. You've been a shoulder to cry on whenever I needed one the most. You've been the heart I could hold in my hands and feel it beating. You've been a wallflower. But you're my wallflower. And I love wallflowers. Especially you.
Thank you for making me feel more wholesome, complete, and meaningful. Thank you for helping me understand so many things I earlier took for granted. Thank you for changing me into the better person I am today.
I have always been obsessed with green gemstones. I'm glad to have found an Emerald like you.
I love you.
J.
