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...

SHARP

He always found silver attractive. It was around grade 10 I guess when he first began to feel that something was inside him. A voice always taunted him. At first he thought that gone insane, not that he was normal for that matter but insane in other way, I mean he was depressed for that matter but insane in much higher way, not that he knew that he was depressed but he’d got a pretty good idea around that time. Anyway he began to hear this voice, taunting him, making him angry, and making him unable to focus in anything. “Shall I cut myself? But then again it’d leave scars on my body that I’d have to hide for eternity. No, I shouldn’t but what shall I do? I’ve tried smoking but it only gives relief temporarily and I can’t smoke every time. Wait a sec… I can be drunk all the time and if I drink in my form of limit, I can do that without anyone finding it!” so he drank and remained a drunk for two years until his parents found that their son’s been depressed and took him to a psyc...
