It's that kind of evening u know. A hot arizona evening. A night rather. One of those nights that take u way back in time. Takes me back to those days when i was in high school. So i pull out a folder that has some random thoughts that i jotted down back in those days. Thought i share with you guys.

I blew out my candle, and you bid me farewell.
Look what has happened to us.
Look where we have arrived.
Years of admiration for each other,
only to find ourselves saying goodbye on a stormy night like this.
Why was it that we could not hold on to each other.

But do let me escort you through this stormy night to a place
where you will embark on a new journey of your life.
Let there be no obstacles.
Let no pebbles laying on your path penetrate your tender skin
and cause you pain.

So long until the day when we, from distance apart,
will be looking at the same moon lit sky and thinking about the days of old
when we were young and hope was strong.

I hope you will find solace and move on with your life,
as for me, oh, it's so hard to say goodbye to yesterday,

K cha saathi? Aba Nepali muktak bata English tira lageko? why the sudden shift? Liked your poem. Your muktaks and poems are always sad. Why is that? Write some happy ones too sometimes.

By the way, I thought you had sold this poem to that one guy few yours back. Isn't it his techinically? Ok saathi, call me soemtimes. Haven't talked in ages. You know the number.
