To friendship , insanity, busrides and Gopi

She  sat at the window  looking as  pretty  as  a  rose  
I watched with hesitant intent  , as she struck a  pose
What was to be , would be  , but i dint know  yet
She’d  get off at the  same stop and  turn my head

We walked home , talking  of the stories from yore
We talked of the  present, the future and  what  was before
We shared music ,  stories  jokes  and heart breaks
The rains, movies , coffees and caramel chocolates

The days were short  and so were the bus rides
But man will i miss them those insane tides
Lunatic thoughts and blasphemous cries
Heartfelt conversation and the lighter  side of life.

You made me feel good, you made me fell blessed
Friends  like you could raise some one from the dead
A true friend i have  found in you lill mis Gops
So i wish it all comes to you your dreams your  hopes

A good friendship never comes to an end
So as  you drift  in your world and in the  free time  that you spend
Think of me sometimes and  you will know
That  friends like me don't easily let go

So let me  stop rhyming and put this straight
Gops  your  my friend forever and thats just your fate


Its at fortunate times that you choose  to open your  mouth to befriend someone  special,  someone  gifted , someone  slightly insane. And then your worlds  rocked and nothing is the same. When we  became  friends  and when a bond was  made is difficult to discern but from that  moment on , my lifes clearly  been different in a special way. Be it quick , juggad  for  booze,  or the  desire to watch a movie and  most importantly  a chat you have  been there for me . Thank you my friend . 

Its difficult to explain what  you represent  to me Fresh as a breeze  , brightness of a  sunflower , beauty of a  sunrise ,  heart of a  tigress, chatter of the rain , laughter of a friend, warmth of  a bears hug,  innocence of a  dew drop and the mystery of the sea all rolled into one super happening  though slightly stubborn, completely crazy free minded spirit who i like to call my friend  my compadre.  

You are  special that  is for sure will miss you buddy once  you  are not on that  apollo bus. I ll miss the morning auto rides  , and the confidence building / shattering  pillion rides on your bike. Will miss the  golgappa and the icecream and some of the cheesy popcorn with some more  cheesy dip.  But most importantly ill miss your smile and the MAST good morning. 


Not that im dying or will never see you again , I'm just being melodramatic (ab there saath rehunga to thoda sa nautanki to karunga na ) but  just thought would let you know Love you loads Gops  take care and all the best.
