Random madness

"Stop acting like a lost teenage girl high on harmones" ... His words haunting me again and again. "Did I really talk like that?" . I close my eyes to feel the morbid humiliation make my body cold inside out.  "Your emotions are suffocating me" I can hear his words again, as if he is standing near. I open my eyes to find myself alone.... and empty.  "Suffocating??!!! my care is suffocating!!"...  Nobody had every rejected my care, my love, my attentions. I am used to people craving for me.

"I miss you.. Can I say that to you??   Maybe.!!!  But its not like we share confidences, hell sometimes we don't even get to say hi. We don't share secrets. Most of the times we react by just a smile. We never discuss unless you count innumerable unrelated view points we shared. We dodge the personal questions. We evade answering reasons. We never properly end the talk. Nor pick it up where we left off. There are lots of loose ends. We try to stay as unaffected as possible, but still there is something flowing between us. Which makes me miss you. Miss the broken talks. The ambiguous smiles and nods.  The unwanted discussions and unrelated topics. Miss the underlying tension in anticipating each other's response.
