Mehendi!
[Read Full Article in Caption]
At Pen:
Its been 10 days, and my mehendi has started to leave in fragments,
Growing up , mehendi was never my choice during festivals.!
The smell of it , made me nauseous,
But lately, I have started to love things that make me feel uneasy! Even this!
Mehendi! They say, “ darker it is, stronger the love”
Was love ever so simple?
To be judged by such momentary stuffs?
funny isn’t it? Something, as immense as love, can be measured by parameters equivalent to , petals of roses, and shades of mehendi,
if only, petals of roses” could say he loves me or he loves me not,
or FLAMES could actually ,make us marry our crush,
then don’t you think, heartbreaks would be a little milder? The journey of finding our love wouldn’t be full of thorns?
if loving someone would be as easy as a litmus paper test, if they loved you, it showed red, if not it turned, blue!
Most of the people I know have tried to “test love” through this too, even I, silly us!
“The things we do for love” right ?
and now when I’ve grown more mature,
I realized , something that fades within few days, cannot be a parameter, for testing my LOVE which I wish to hold on every day?
Though there are some similarities , I wish to name.
like vicks, and lemons zest, we add people or things to shield our love,
make it darker, but even mehendis with all the care, gets faded! Then how can we not expect such love to dwindle?
Our conceptions are fucked up, I must say!
my mehendi today is still darker, but love is no more the reason,
the petals still says, “ he loves me” , but today he is nowhere but in my dreams,
was love ever so simple ?
Or was it in knitted sweaters, and hand made letters?
Believe in love and trust your gut, these signs would fade
But a love which is meant to stay will never turn pale !
