FIRST LOVE Searched on Facebook huge list showed up with exact same name but none resembled the picture I had of him last seen when in my teens and he, all of sixteen Brown hair, blue eyes, in blue blazer, blue tie strikingly handsome, a tad shy Stole glances on the sly travelling to school in same bus no words exchanged, but smiles, to validate love, couldn't hide A few scribbled notes I have on ruled pages from his note pad declaring his undying love asking to wait till time was ripe for us to share the spotlight announce to our parents we were for each other right Alas! that day didn't arrive heard he had migrated to Australia land of the free All Ango Indians desired to settle, build new lives Vacant bus seat thereafter stared at me unsmilingly Still think of him in my waking hours and dreams remembering every detail of his gentle personality And of our muted love that transcended physicality Yet made me feel so womanly #firstlove #writingresolution #writinginspiration #day35 #yqbaba #yqquotes #valentine #unrequitedlove
