STATUTORY WARNING: THIS IS MY LOVE STORY. MY LOVEOGRAPHY.
CERTAIN DESCRIPTIONS ARE RISQUE AND BORDER ON THE EXPLICIT. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK. CULTURE VULTURES KINDLY
EXCUSE.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I LOVE YOU! You know I love you. And I never tire of
declaring my love for you again and again, as many times as possible. If given
a choice I would sing ‘bhajanai
of these three magic words every minute, every second for you. For I don’t want
an iota of doubt in your or for that matter anyone’s mind about this fact, no
ambiguity at all that you are my love.
Remember the time when we first met ? Eons ago? I do.
Vividly. I think I was barely out of the school uniform and the wisdom tooth
was not even in its infancy. Or so it feels now. And I didn’t know or care to
know if you felt like a cradle snatcher. I remember my first sight of you.
Equally vividly. Cupid struck! Manmadhan
ambu hit bullseye. It was love at first sight and lust at first sight,
nothing more and nothing less. And You? My God! What a sight you were. Your
dusky complexion, almost bordering on black, which seduced me instantly. Not
for me the gori-gori fair n
lovely milky white kind. And I think you sensed it too, that very instant. Your
figure. Flowing lissomely like a river post a torrential rain. Exuding the
fiery halo of the lava from a freshly erupted volcano. Your touch. Warm and
welcoming, hot and inviting at the same time. Your smell as you came near. No
perfume, no flowers, no aroma, no manmade concoction could match it however
much the Shellys and Tagores may try and make me believe otherwise. Natural
some said and if so, nature had reserved the very best for you.
From loving you to becoming your slave was but one swift
journey. I remember the day when I moved out, in freedom and you moved in with
me. Free to love you, beyond spying eyes, beyond stern looks of disapproval and
well beyond the well intentioned but terribly annoying and futile words of
wisdom which would try to wean me away from you. How were they to know what you meant to me? My
love for you, taller than the tallest mountain, deeper than the deepest ocean.
How were they to know your soothing touch which woke me up? A simple touch with
which you would steal me away from the sleep which had usurped my attention.
The feeling of bliss when I put my arms around you, gingerly first, gradually
into a tight hug. And then the first kiss of the day! A peck, a much tighter
one and finally a full mouthed deep deep passionate kiss. Again and again. Enough
to drive everything away from my conscious, set my mind afire, body reacting to
the sheer pleasure of the magic that you weaved on me, hungry heart consumed with
desire. A few minutes were all that it took you to reduce me to putty in your
hands. And then enlightenment! Mind and body filled with the peace, content,
energy and enthusiasm unknown before. Totally satisfied.
The childlike eagerness, the glee I felt as I made my way back
home. Knowing you would be waiting equally eagerly to ring me in with a warm
embrace. One look at you and I would perk up in a giffy, the tired dog up and
running, on his way to welcome the night pregnant with possibilities that lay
ahead. Your love, your affection, the attention and I was a new man,
rejuvenated, reborn. The headaches and the hearthaches, the appointments and the
disappointments , the frustrations and the outrage, the hard fought wins and
the confidence pricking failures, the close shaves, the day of misery fades
away into oblivion by the time I am through with you and the world feels not so
bad a place after all. Thats you! My peace of mind, my moksha, my nirvana, my
holy grail, my elixir of life!
I would be lying if I said that between seeing you and
seeing you again you were removed from my conscious. It would be a blatant lie.
During boring client presentations, mundane meetings, tasteless luncheons, hectic
running around from point to point like a lost ant, never never were you away
from my thoughts. It was your memories which made it all tolerable, bearable.
If only I could take you along with me, every day, everywhere.
I LOVE YOU! You know I love you. And I never tire of
declaring my love for you again and again, as many times as possible. Let there
not be an iota of doubt in your or for that matter anyone’s mind about this
fact, no ambiguity at all that you are my love. My one and only love. The
greatest of God’s creation:
My cup of strong filter coffee!

PS: The story doesn’t apply to Bangalore where even small
‘Darshinis’ serve awesome filter coffee. Very very relevant to the rest of
India where one has to hunt down Annapoornas or Saravana Bhavans for a sip of
this necter!
