It was a really cold day, with temperature hovering just a few degress above the freezing point. Just the perfect day to tuck yourself neatly beneath the thickest blanket. But if you want to see miracles happening, u better drag ur ass out of the bed and get going. Talking of miracles, do miracles really happen on days like this, a day tailor made by God to punish his children for all their sins. But yes, it did happen.

Life was going at its normal pace, though it lacked the punch. Walking aimlessly on the near empty roads (only lunatics or people with no shelter dared to be out, me belonging to none of the two categories), I was just recapturing my past few weeks here. They had been hectic by all means, with little time for me to sit back and reflect where my life was heading to.

Deeply lost in my thoughts, i didnt realize where i was going. My trance was broken by a loud honk from behind. Turned around, and for a few moments was frozen. Was she for real? And if she was, why was she mad at me? Idiot, you are standing right in the middle of the road, and honey had i not been careful, u would have been in the hospital by now.

That she was beautiful, will be an understatement. That she was with some other man, a harsh reality. But i wont loose my sleep over that, cause i have a plan for every situation. What if they fail on most occassions.

She caught my eye, as we walked on by. And she could see from my face that i was fucking high. And I don't think that i will see her again, but we shared a moment that will last till the end.

There must be an angel up somewhere, with a mischievious smile on her face, when she thought that i should be with you, girl.

Time's up, over. Snap back to reality dude. That she has zoomed past u, leaving a cloud of smoke as her souvenir. Couldnt capture it, just let it diminish.

Miracles do happen, so do realizations. That i will never be with you.....................
