The eerie silence associated with dusk, has stopped inducing angst in me lately. This was so unlike me for I had always feared the dark, and even dreaded the thought of walking out alone. But today, being at this garden all alone, awaiting him, in fact, fills my heart with joy instead of fear.
I never thought that I would fall for someone in such haste. But he is so mesmerizing; his eyes could hypnotize anyone looking into them, his words - comforting, and his tone - enthralling. Everything about him is fascinating. Even the thoughts about him stimulated a deep longing. I guess this is how every other girl feels about her love.
Love changes a lot of things, they say. Love indeed brought out a new me. The shy girl who feared everything around her is long gone. The one who hated animals and feared most of the inferior life is now more confident confronting them.
A dog started howling afar and all of a sudden many others joined. It felt as if the dogs are singing out of joy in meeting their sweethearts. These sounds would have brought chills to me before, but not anymore, I could now see the beauty in it. The garden grew darker, with sun gone. I saw a snake winding away from me at a distance. I could even see a dog watching me from the woods nearby. The look on its face was endearing and it had a long furry tail.
My heart started pounding faster. It was not out of fear, but of the realization that he will be here any minute from now. I felt as if I could communicate with him through my thoughts, or is it just my thoughts?
And then I saw him coming, the captor of my mind and soul. I ran into his outstretched arms and kissed him, as he lifted me up, taking out the air in me. Being with him gave me a feeling of immortality. It felt as if our love will last for ever, till the end of the world, even beyond that. We stood there clutching each other close, with our eyes closed. I could now feel his head moving downwards searching for the mark, which he left just yesterday, on my neck. I could hear him whisper “The blood is the life…”
I saw this movie again last week and loved it. So i thought - y not write a story around this? :)
