We were both young, when I first saw you.
I close my eyes and the flashback starts-
I’m standing there, on a balcony in summer air.
I see the lights; see the party, the ball gowns.
I see you make your way through the crowd-
You say hello, little did I know…
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles-
And my daddy said “stay away from Juliet”-
And I was crying on the staircase-
begging you, “Please don’t go…”
And I said…
Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone.
I’ll be waiting; all there’s left to do is run.
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess,
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes.
So I sneak out to the garden to see you.
We keep quiet, because we’re dead if they knew-
So close your eyes… escape this town for a little while.
Oh, Oh.
Cause you were Romeo – I was a scarlet letter,
And my daddy said “stay away from Juliet” -
but you were everything to me-
I was begging you, “Please don’t go”
And I said…
Romeo take me somewhere, we can be alone.
I’ll be waiting; all there’s left to do is run.
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess.
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes-
Romeo save me, they’re trying to tell me how to feel.
This love is difficult, but it’s real.
Don’t be afraid, we’ll make it out of this mess.
It’s a love story, baby, just say yes.
Oh, Oh.
I got tired of waiting.
Wondering if you were ever coming around.
My faith in you was fading-
When I met you on the outskirts of town.
And I said…
Romeo save me, I’ve been feeling so alone.
I keep waiting, for you but you never come.
Is this in my head, I don’t know what to think-
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said…
Marry me Juliet, you’ll never have to be alone.
I love you, and that’s all I really know.
I talked to your dad — go pick out a white dress
It’s a love story, baby just say… yes.
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh.
’cause we were both young when I first saw you

Now if only this was MY Love Story!
Well, I don’t expect pretty much though, but how I wish, at least, my story should end more like this!!
Chocolate cookie! I am so in love with… Happy Endings!
This was during college times, that whenever I got het up of some monotonousdreary agitating lectures, I used to come out to hold myself down at this place, which was nothing more than a side lawn between two departmental blocks and it had a big parking lot on its third side.. and a handsome landscape in-between. Well the overall view was kind of okish.. But after spending almost 45 minutes (i.e. one Nirman period) every day for over 3 whole years.. I ended up writing this..
I don’t know what?
But something is there, that this breezy atmos is low & mild.
I don’t know what?
But something is there, that even leaves swing while falling down..
and these gusty trees celebrate my presence.
I don’t know what?
But something is there, that the mid-day sun smiles at me..
and I love to wander on these streets.
I don’t know what??
But something is there, that I can’t resist checking his very being..
and something magnetizes me towards the place over & over again.
I don’t know what?
But something is there, that I always have a pretext for ‘um..
and I fancy the whole scenario phenomenally.
I don’t know what?
But something is essentially there,
That my eyes are so much acquainted by his sight, as whenever I pick up my pen to write, I discover him sitting right before me and inspiring me to write about him!
They come.. I strut away
