I think I must have lost you in this sea of humanity.
Or rather, we have never seen each other at all.
I tried to think and recall that instance when we should have met.
Or that day when our paths, or our eyes or maybe our hands might have crossed, or met or touched.
I reckon, we could have bumped in an alley, amidst the hustle and bustle.
Or had it happened that my purse fell in front of you in a store.
I hope one sunny or rainy day, we should have shared in an umbrella.
Or maybe it was in a train or in a bus that you have offered a seat to me despite my decline.
I know it was the most unusual of all days.
Or some other day that makes it all different from the rest.
I should say it was the most unexpected of all.
Or something which made everything so colorful and happy and carefree and yes, all about you and me.
I believe at some point I must have loved you.
Or rather, we should have been loving each other for long.
I think it is supposedly you and me forever.
Or it was something cheesy lifted in a fairy tale story book for children being read at night.
I know it was all about love shared by us.
Or it used to be love that we no longer shared by us.
I believe it will never be you and me again.
Or is it because nothing was left, and everything was lost...and indeed, I lost you too.
This is me and this is what I feel. This is me and this is what I think. This is me and this is what I breathe. This is me and this is what I live. This is me and this is my Sanctuary.
My Sanctuary...
Life is always bound to be painful and joyful, can be filled with sadness or happiness, and at some point, despair or hope. My life, just like anyone else is no excuse for every malady this world has to offer. And so, I offer myself a recluse, a place to hibernate, to recoil...A Sanctuary...and this is my Sanctuary...
