You sit at the back of the classroom,utterly bored. Your apathetic dark eyes skim the classroom,you look like everything has disappointed you. You sit there,attempting to blend in,yet your expression suggests you hold yourself above it. You smirk at the sight of the high school drama unfolding around you,enjoying the bigger picture,and the private joke. There is a deep sadness within you,like an incurable disease. I wonder if it is because of not fitting in to the framework of a high school.
You see me approach you,and your eyes dance with amusement. Are you teasing me?
Your attention vexes me.Your head tilts speculatively as you regard me, and you greet me with your sarcasm.We share the same morbid sense of humor, the fascination with all things abstract and we laugh together giddily before I realise that you enjoy yourself with me. The idea strangely pleases me.
You realise you have given too much away,and pull yourself back together. I smile at you,pleased that I have an upper hand this time when I tell you about yourself. You are surprised that I have caught on,but not displeased.
You turn away from me,smiling.

ReplyDeleteyeah well reading this after that post about what you feel about love...the Wuthering Heights post...tends to make one believe its about two people...so much in love that they're one...Narcissism....?
ReplyDeletehahaha....
Even if its two separate people one is incomplete without the other. Like two cracked shards fitting together to make a complete plate. So in essence,when you get too intimate with someone(or are still in the process of getting close..),you slowly start renouncing the fact that the other one is not 'you' but someone else,but at the same time,is actually 'you' which,in return,makes 'you',who the other one actually is.I think it's a natural corollary to the incessant operation of both fortuitous and deliberate communications,interlaced together like salt and sand.It kinda actually reminds me of the 'Chaos' theory.An eventual distinct pattern evolving out of the initial random chaotic behaviour.
ReplyDeletea short piece with two very meaningful facets... an individual, bored of the mundane palate everyday life has to offer... observing, smiling at the satirical thoughts in his head when analyzing the behavioral patterns of those around him...
ReplyDeletethe other does seem familiar... rare but not impossible... sarcasm setting off sparks between the two similar if not "same" individuals, ... a cut above the rest, the two of them...
carefully considering, speaking, enjoying, revealing yet defensive...
the impression this gives me is of a darker, more meaningful avatar of love but gradually budding... or maybe in full bloom but in its own distinct way...
relating to the subject... i would say, oh yes, very peachy indeed :D
ReplyDeleteYou realise you have given too much away,and pull yourself back together. I smile at you,pleased that I have an upper hand this time when I tell you about yourself.
ReplyDeleteTypical yet atypical. From what I gathered I would say you are looking for a very intriguing love life :D.. with yourself. Love yourself, I tell ya.(Aint we conceited anyway? :P )But on a serious note, those who love themselves, well within bounds(not narcissism), are truly blessed souls.
