Red and Gold

Sweet words whispered in her ears
She smiled, how warm they felt
Touching him sent shivers down her spine
His arms around her, the world melted away
Long drives, quiet walks, music, laughter
If only she could pretend now...

She watched him pack, pick up his shirt, put the guitar in the case
He looked at her just once... was there hurt in his eyes?
Her own tears blurred her vision.. she would never know

The veils of society, the one root of all their issues
Insecurities only she could shake... Connection only he could mend
If only he would give himself completely she would be the ideal he sought
A month is what he asked for....
Maybe he would be hers once again

The door ajar, his footsteps down the stairs
An old song played on the neighbor's gramophone
She could hold back no more..bent over, she sobbed softly

Happy 2012

I had an awesome time bringing in the New Year!
I feel good all over and am looking forward to the cliche resolutions...

I have recently started going to the gym and so this is not an absolute resolution. However I want to keep to the four-five days a week routine. In the past I have always started off strong and then get bored. I love running outside but that is not possible and so this is the next best thing.
Am not one to compromise... but well... I do see results and I feel great. Having a awesome personal trainer who makes you feel guilty every time you bunk doesn't hurt either ;)

I have been told that even though I care about my health, looking good matters too. Go figure!
So time to take on my cupboard, avoid comfortable clothes and spend an additional half an hour dolling up every time I decide to go out.

Also I want to practice guitar more and get way better than I am. The thing is that I love playing, but when I try to do something hard it starts to feel like work... till I get better at it.

I haven't done as much reading as I would like so this makes my last resolution. I only manage some reading before bed these days. Hope to get some really scrumptious books that I just can't put down!

And one GOAL.... run the Half Marathon in Pune this December!!
