AN UNFORGETTABLE GASH THROUGH FACEBOOK

I was in a classmate’s home

Surfing internet at noon,

Family was on duty, silent at his home

He joked me like a moron.

He edited his Facebook account

I was sitting beside him

After few minutes, I logged into my account

The displaying page was so slow and so dim.

We waited the browsing page till open

I clicked the Home on my profile

And it took time to open

I confirmed the friends’ request in a while.

He was lightly loony about Facebook

Both we searched friends’ request info

I had made forty friends on Facebook

One of them had mobile number in the info.

He fully fussed, I also eagerly excited

I started him smilingly, he gazed me gladly

We opened her profile without late

She was doing diploma in computer recently.

Her details were collected, the number was selected

We took out own mobile, we thought for a while

Her number was saved; connected her over the mobile

She was admirable, we messaged to her mobile.

In the evening, she messaged me

And I chatted to her for sometime

Through list of her friends she had added me

Few days later, I’d updated her request online.

He prankly proposed her

She kept his proposal in pending

He put such matters on my ear

She had a boyfriend while clarifying.

She phones us especially in day

I poured my emotion into her heart

She became closer to me day by day

She asked me a gift of art.

She wanted to meet me so much

That she urged me through call

I postponed the meeting dates so much

That she felt me like a pearl.

I was doing computer class

While staying in paying guest

She phoned me to meet her in a mass

Of people in market as a guest.

I was interested to meet her at that day.

Restriction on me for visiting in vain

I was in dilemma at that day

I didn’t face such situation again.

I couldn’t meet her though she requested

She enquired about me through him

She was so close that I never expected

About her I used to tell him.

On 14^th February, I was invited

'T Was 1^st time, I felt shy to meet her

I missed her over the date

I switched my mobile on two days later.

I had made a gift of painting

It was of landscape on canvas.

I promised her to give the painting

For me! Valentine’s Day was the gash. 

She continued to phone me from next day

I told her, I was busy on the Valentine’s Day

I planned to meet her next month

She asked me to bring the gift in that month

Ere I meet her at my home

I packed the painting patiently

And I went to my uncle’s home

That night I woke up frequently.

She rang me at the dawn of day

She was suffering from common cold

The meeting date was postponed to next day

I thought her as precious as gold.

Whole day my heart dreamed about her

I realised what we talked over phone

And I read her messages with missing her

That day, almost of the time I spent alone.

 I chose clothes

And ironed it twice

I couldn’t take the meal as usual

My heart wasn’t there at all.

I phoned her, morning of meeting day

She planned with me for meeting place

She fixed the meeting time of that day

And a diverged road having a resting place.

I went there
And waited her for a while

‘T was nearby her home I felt fear

Are you coming? I asked her over the mobile.

Few peoples took rest and crossed there

A car came and U-turn there

It was mid-day, sunny and sky was clear

Few students talked with me, a school was near.

I pranked her by calling

“if you got married,” I run away from here

She said, “No! I'm not married, I’m coming…”

I spent two, three hours there.

Finally, she came with calling me

My eyes were contacted to her eyes

Just she caught my hand and smiled me

My heart became lighter than the swarm of bees.

Her eyes with eye shadow like a twinkling star

Her lips was as red as a rose

I got suitable height in comparison to her

She dressed up as attractive as a primrose.

Hesitatingly, I presented the painting to her

And both we went to nearby market

Up to the half way I reached her

Two days later, again I met her at the market.

Few days she didn’t receive my calls at all

No calls, no messages, no missed calls from her

I was heart-rending like in someone’s funeral

From there, her calls were received no more.

After one year, I’d gone to uncle’s home,

At the dinner time, I got an unknown call,

The caller was my friend, who lives near her home,

Her details were updated; I kept it secret at all.

The event was almost far away,

I was also busy in my work, but that day

My wounded heart was squeezed itself

But she was no more bachelor girl herself.

I realised her memories,

But couldn’t contact to her,

Slowly, trying to cease the memories

And never have such experiences no more.
