Life's an inescapable maze when you fall into the sea of love. The only way to see the sunshine is to love more; and more until you realize that it's like a tea-stain which does not have to go. This is a short story of a boy named Martin and his feeling called Love :
There was a boy; very lonely
Always secluded and thinking aberrantly
Dreams were his only creative art
Yet his life was vapid from the start
One day there was an empyrean maiden
Sitting on the shore of his owned steam
With a lit up face and sadness hidden
'Let me see who has stopped by my dream?'
Next day came with a new sunshine
Every cloud had a silver line
Hands held and smiles flew
Somber darkness turned skew
But as they say, "Love makes you pay"
Winds turned gale and sky turned grey
Beneath the sands of time his love felt prey
Savaging hearts was love's mere play
Darkness once again filled his cart
Yet he strives to find the girl who coloured his art.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Life capsized. Martin lives in town with a full hour job and his alone self. Seldom do I see him smiling and writing something happy. But today he has written something full of exaltation and also the smallest of the diary entry's he's written in times! Let me show you :
Insanity is love's greatest playI rant my soul on this beautiful day
Got back my treasure and my dream
Found her waiting by the stream
Now, there's nothing to lose and gain
For every true relation's like a tea-stain
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you're wondering who am I then let's just say I'm his diary containing his feelings, emotions and all that the world doesn't know about him. This was his story and I'm telling you this because, when the heart cries and feelings unfold, world must know a story untold. And the answer to your next question, where did Jenny vanish away suddenly is that I don't know. He never told me. Maybe she never vanished; from his heart.
"Drop your feelings before they become heavy and fall off themselves"

You contribute an amazing piece of art from the heart each Tuesday for these 'creative prompts'!
I truly enjoy reading them and find myself looking forward to them :-) The title is again very unique and applies to the post perfectly! I especially loved the last verse in the poem.

I always believe that penning a poetry on a topic given (and not chosen by own) is very difficult. But with this post, you have nailed it.
I loved it from the beginning to the end. Keep going:)
I love your writing, it is just simply awesome!
You are just too great. I look up to you!
I AM YOUR FAN! :D

Hey Rachit Gupta, kindly share the secret behind your momentous writing. It is as if I am reading some eminent illusionist's work in here!

@Bikramjit: Rightly said. :)
@Arti: Waao! I made way in your diary! I hope you remember me and that diary always remains with you! ;)
@Akriti: There is no secret Akriti and it's nowhere close to that great and height at which you're complimenting!
Loved your comment though! ;)
That's one fine post. A story told in a painfully beautiful way.
Rachit, what is the meaning of your blog's title and how did you come up with it?
Thank You so much Saru. :)
It is a Spanish word meaning Sentiments or Feelings. This is maybe because I am fond of this language and this word resonates with its meaning in English which is very rare; just like this blog is. :)
A story inside a poem inside a blog post. And how. So absolutely amazingly written, Rachit. Seriously, I really loved the transformation from the story to the diary entry. :)
The best lines.
'Now, there's nothing to loose and gain,
For every true relation is like a tea stain'
@Usama: Wow! That's an amazing compliment. Thank you so much! I'm so glad you liked it. :D
I guess u must have heard this a 100 times, but i m repeating it...you are brilliant with weaving a story a poem everything together and a tea stain to top it all :)
This was the best-est compliment ever given Prachee. I'm so overwhelmed and you really made my day! :)
Fairly good post. I simply stumbled upon your weblog and wished to say that I have really enjoyed studying your blog posts. Anyway I'll be subscribing to your feed and I hope to learn your post once more soon.

Something Hearttouching... Just feld the Last lines... Still echoing in my head.." Drop your feelings before it gets heavy.. " Yeah!. Completely Agree.. :)
