આપણે

આપણે બસ આપણે જ્યાં હોઇએ,
એ ક્ષણો સાક્ષાત બનતી જોઇએ.

જાહેરમાં હસતા રહીશું આપણે,
એક બીજાના ખભા પર રોઇએ.

રૂબરૂ મળવુ નથી જો શક્ય તો,
સ્વપ્નમાં તો રોજ મળવુ જોઇએ.

હક ઝઘડવાનો તને પુરો છતા,
પ્રેમની ક્ષણ એ રીતે ના ખોઇએ.

દૂર કિસ્મત પણ કરી ક્યાંથી શકે?
જો પરસ્પર દિલમાં વસતા હોઇએ!

I don't know why

A Girl in a Dream

10th Grade 
 
As I sat there in English class,
I stared at the girl next to me.
She was my so called 'best friend'.
I stared at her long, silky hair,
and wished she was mine.
But she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it.
After class, she walked up to me and asked me for
the notes she had missed the day before.
I handed them to her.
She said 'thanks' and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know
that I don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.

11th grade

The phone rang.
On the other end,
it was her. She was in tears,
mumbling on and on about how her love had broken her heart.
She asked me to come over because
she didn't want to be alone, which I did.
As I sat next to her on the sofa,
I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine.
After 2 hours, and one Drew Barrymore movie,
and three bags of chips, she decided to go home.
She looked at me, said 'thanks' and gave me a kiss on the cheek..
I want to tell her, I want her to know that
I don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.

Senior year

One fine day she walked to my locker.
"My date is sick" she said, "his not gonna go", well,
I too didn't have a date, and in 7th grade,
we made a promise that if neither of us had dates,
we would go together just as 'best friends'.
So we did. That night, after everything was over,
I was standing at her front door step.
I stared at her as she smiled at me
and stared at me with her crystal eyes.
Then she said- "I had the best time, thanks!"
and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her,
I want her to know
that I don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.

Graduation

A day passed, then a week, then a month.
Before I could blink, it was graduation day.
I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel
up on stage to get her diploma.
I wanted her to be mine-but
she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it.
Before everyone went home,
she came to me in her smock and hat,
and cried as I hugged her.
Then she lifted her head from my shoulder
and said- 'you're my best friend, thanks' and
gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know
that I don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.

Marriage

Now I sit in the pews of the church.
That girl is getting married now.
and will be driving off to her new life,
married to another man.
I wanted her to be mine,
but she didn't see me like that,
and I knew it.
But before she drove away,
she came to me and said 'you came ...!'.
She said 'thanks' and kissed me on the cheek.
I want her to know that
I don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.

Years passed, I looked down at the coffin
of a girl who used to be my 'best friend'.
At the service, they read a diary entry
she had wrote in her high school years.
This is what it read:
"I stare at him wishing he was mine;
but he doesn't notice me like that,
and I know it. I want to tell him,
I want him to know that
I don't want to be just friends,
I love him but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.
 
I wish he would tell me he loved me!
.........'I wish I did too...'
I thought to my self,
and I don't know why, I cried.

Things you miss/wish in life...

**5 minutes ago you were traveling to office at 80 mph. in your brand new car. Now you are traveling to hospital at double the speed in an ambulance, you wish there was 'undo (ctrl + Z)' in life!

**You are already late, and your key is missing, you wish there was 'find tool (ctrl+F)' in life!

**You are a bankrupt, after investing in some weird business, you wish there was 'rebuild all' in life!

**The train is so crowded that you cannot get anywhere near that nice girl at the other end, you wish there was 'zoom & view full screen' in life!

**After marriage you realize that there is bound to be a mismatch, you wish there was a valuation period' or at least a 'sample download' or a 'demo version'!

**One day you realize that you are turning bald, you wish there was 'cut and paste (ctrl + X)/ (ctrl + C)' in life!

& the best one is....

**The best part of the keyboard is U & I are together which is not always there in life...

Holding Hands

Holding Hands

A little girl and her father were crossing a bridge. The father was kind of scared so he asked his little daughter: "Sweetheart please hold my hand so that you don't fall into the river."

The little girl said, "No dad, you hold my hand." "What's the difference?" Asked the puzzled father.

Can I Guess Your Profession?

Once upon a time there was a shepherd looking after his sheep on a deserted road. Suddenly a brand new Porsche screeches to a halt.
