Where are you tonight?

A small corner of my heart is feeling empty tonight. Nothing in this world can fill this void except some long heard distant voice of an unknown bird. A bird that I have never seen and will never see… but the songs it sang a long time back will forever ring in my heart and mind, and this void will keep on echoing them forever.



Oh! Lost bird! Can you listen to my heart-beats? For a change it is singing for you tonight. Here I dedicate one line from one of my favorite songs to you:



"Remember, I will still be here,

As long as you hold me, in your memory,

Remember me."


I want to sing it for you the whole night. Crossing the mountains my voice will reach you. I know you will listen to it from wherever you are.


But for a change I want to sleep tonight.


But oh! Sweet! Sleep! Where are you tonight?

    Such a sweet post. Why is it empty girl? Missing someone very close to you.

    It will sing with you in your dreams for sure.

    Hi Preetilata,
    Sleep may be elusive that night but your mind wander to that small bird that sang to you that melodious ditty a long time ago. Yes, that bird represents your lost youth and innocence. Just yesterday, you were a young girl dreaming dreams and musing of so many thoughts in life. And your musings were disturbed by that haunting chirping of a bird. Yes, if you can only bring back those days of pure innocence and delight in the wonders of nature. If only that bird will sing again.
    Thanks for the poignant post. God bless you and your loved ones always.

    the part about remembering reminded me of the lion king when mufasa tells his son "you have forgotten me because you have forgotten who you are. you can be a lot more than you have become..."

    loved it...

    oh i can so relate to this post. Sleepless nights... they are just weird. Sometimes they dont even make you sad. Sometimes they just leave you emotionless and sometimes you just wish for good things.
    Cool post :-)

    Hi Friend,
    May I request, if it is not too much of a burden to you, to please subscribe to my Feedburner Feeds either through email or to my RSS Feed Reader. You can find them at the upper portion of my sidebars at all my blogs. This will save you the time of going over to my blogs to find out if I have made a new posting. The FeedBurner will automatically transmit, either through email or Feed Reader (whichever you choose), any new post that I make. This will facilitate linkages between us. I will do the same for you if you have your own feeds, but if you still don't have I will still visit your blog as often as I could. Just inform me via email or through your comment in any of my blogs that you have already enrolled in any of my feeds so that I can reciprocate your gesture. I will appreciate it very much if you could do this as it will definitely boost ranking for my blogs. Thank you very much for your usual kind cooperation and patronage of my blogs. God bless you and your loved ones always.
