" I saw you again today "




 " I saw you again today "

 

I realised it when I saw that I loved you . Your smile. Those dimples.

Maybe it was the best decision that I have made till now about you . It was coming for you .

As a commando, it was my duty to make sure all students were disciplined. So when you and your friends were still in your class. I came to tell you guys to leave but I was a bit sceptical because all of you were elder than me .

When I came and was trying to figure out my words like a kindergarten student struggling to speak .

You came forward and helped me by telling your friends. That was really thoughtful and kind of you. It made me feel safe. It takes alot of time for me to build that feeling but you have built it in just one sentence.  You always made me feel important. Even while talking with you have patiently listened to me.

You have been changing me a lot .... in a good way.

I have realised that I loved you when we were walking down the stairs and I called you to say something.

I suddenly blanked out on the spot. Even while reading books I could never blank out but seeing you and that cute smile made me forget everything I have wanted to say to you .

Your smile is so simple that when you - your teeth show and your smile corners blend into your face , It is the art that only you have mastered.. Also those dimples that form on the sides of  your cheeks they make me want it so much. Your dimples are like black holes that make me want to trip and fall into them.

I have never heard my name coming from your voice and I am dying to hear it .

I doubt if you remember it because I know that I am not special to you but you are special to me.

I don't want you to know how much you've made me like you .

You had been your normal self and that is enough for me to fall for you .

Just being near you makes my heart beat as fast as a hummingbird.

Also my mind keeps humming your name.

Oh!!! What a lovely name .

Your name says acquirer of desires and you have already acquired my desire !!

And now I am hopelessly and aimlessly falling in love with you .

 

Now one question keeps running in my mind.

And that is -

You've brought a spark through a smile into me.... so can I fill your life with light too. Can I be your light ?
