ALMOST REMEMBER




Well he is a weird guy to begin with. Doing random stuffs, talking about the most unexpected of things at most unexpected of times. He woke up that night to the sound of thunder. Not because he was scared of it but because the thunder called out to him. He went up to the terrace and watched the sky. It was beautiful. He stared at the sky for some time and a fragment of memory came to his mind
     It was a thundering evening and he just had a fight, big fight with one of his closest friend. He had gone to his music class with a gloomy face and she had tried to cheer him up. No! he couldn’t remember her name or face but he just remembered that she was someone important to him. The thunder jolts him back from his stream of memory.
     He spent the whole day trying to remember who that person was. Maybe she…No she definitely was a part of the memory that had been blocked. He was restless the whole day. Soon it was evening and he had a habit of going out to meet his friends during that time of the day. He met with them, talked, smoked and drank some coffee.
     It was somewhere around 7PM. He was just sitting there, watching the kids play and checking out any cute or hot girls that passed along the alley. Then he caught a glimpse of someone familiar. Those curls, that movement, that dressing style…that body. “I’ll give you a gift later” those voices began to ring in his ears. His eye sight blurred and he spaced out, deep in his memory.
     It was a thundering evening. She loved thunder too. He admired her. But he was down that evening. Yes a feud. It was a continuation of the memory that the thunder had brought forth earlier. He remembered her dress-pink sweater with black spots and fuzzy hair, blue jeans and black sandal. They were- actually he was dropping her home. she then suddenly stopped, turned towards him, lifted his chin up, stared at his gloomy eyes and gave him a tight hug. Hell he could even remember her smell. But wait… what did she look like??? What was her name??
     As the memory began to fade away from him he heard a faint voice “I will be your pinch of hope” and he recognized that voice very well. It was her voice.
     His vision cleared and he was back to the present. “What happened to you for a second? You spaced out there” his friend asked him. “Nothing much…I almost remembered someone” was his answer.

Part 1 FINAL CHAPTER

#367 I haven’t heard from him for a while. I even wrote a few emails to him, but no replies to this date. At my art class, my teacher often tells stories about his favorite student who had quit recently. Well recently as in a year before I enlisted. He says that that student loved to write and used to write poems even during the art class. Hmm…reminds me of someone I know. Hehe. Major missing here. As all of you know that I am the darkness, I am the night, I am an obscure halo. Yea guys that’s my full pen name. obscure halo. I know that it’s a weird one but hey I am a weird girl so suck it up. I wish I could meet him somehow though. it’s been literally months since he showed up at college. Plus with him not publishing any poems on his blog and him not showing up in college, I’m kinda getting worried. But I’m sure that he is somewhat okay. My instinct tells me. anyway, that’s for today. Peace out. -HALO The rehab was somewhat successful for Aryan and as soon as he was out of t...

"Why is the world so dark and grey? It seems like I am being the same thing I wanted to change, the same beast I sought to fight against '' was the first thing he thought one morning when he woke up. The past three months had been kind to him in some terms and in other terms had been bad as well but he had lost the light that he once had but rather just like his poem said he was now in a grey zone. He still was the emo king that he always was but something inside him had changed and that something inside him had been speaking for quite a while since the past three months. He needed to change.  "This voice is not her's anymore, this feeling is not her's anymore, it is something different and it is something new, what is it though? Whose voice is this?" he thought as he sketched one day. This was a large scale charcoal sketch that he was working on and it was as large as his room wall that is 8 feet by 12 feet. Now with him taking on other small scale jobs,...
