The Girl in Tears


A tiny drop of tear was struggling to cling on to the edge of her eyes. It seemed to me as if it was determined not to let go of her, but in vain. It slowly trickled down her cheeks, leaving a faint trail of smudged kajal, losing track somewhere at the corner of her face.

I gently held her hand as she sobbed, leaning over my chest. At this strangely intimidating moment I realized how beautiful she looked even in sorrow! This was not my first time seeing a girl in tears. But for some unfathomable reason, this one girl seemed like an angel to me. Was she in need of my comfort or was I craving for hers? What would I not give to live the lifetime of a tear, born in her eyes and perish at the edge of her lips! That one tear tingled an elusive spark, unknown to me till then…

I know this is not best of the times to admire a girl. But senses don’t work when one breath-taking moment extends to an unaccountably long time. At this eternal moment, I remain awestruck- how this seemingly delicate being in pain, in sorrow, define the entire purpose of my existence, to be a witness to her life, a reason for her smile, a comfort for her pain?


I've heard a girls' tear possesses supernatural powers. At this moment of inseparable bliss and the influence of her sorrow, I realized that in my case, it is making me realize am in love!
