Someone once told me
Mistakes willingly committed
Are either
Great blunders
Or
The greatest achievement
Mine was soaked in both
These moments
2 minutes and 33 seconds
Of my life
My jaw froze as
I gulped down the ice of truth
It wasn't what I had expected
But, it was the truth of my life
Staring right into my eyes
On the evening of 12 December
Among all smiles, I stood
As if I had faded away
Because that blow was catastrophic
I knew it
The silence within
Had been armed with a rifle
But, surprisingly,
It did not aim my heart
It took away my life
Just those few moments
Of silence
Silence was shouting only one thing -"NO"
This monosyllabic expression
Was enough to change
Me forever
Life is not about the moments you breathe
Life is about the moments
That take away your breath
That drought of silence did take my breath
Those longest 2 mins and 33 sec did take my breath
That "NO" did take my breath
"Some stories are never meant to be
You just can't ...you can't refrain destiny!!! "
