Floors - Strong Indeed to hold your memories




“I did not fall. The floor just needed a hug” - Anonymous


Have you ever imagined what your floors thought about you and your family? Floors have ears. Oh, I don’t mean to get spooky. We have heard about walls though the literal meaning we haven’t gathered a bit to think about. But what if it is true or provides something to mull.
Floors are constructed to provide a base and structure to the buildings or any rooms. This is a definition which we have stuck to till date. For me it is beyond that. Floors are not mere constructions but it weighs your emotions and feelings. Every family lives and goes and leaves some of their parts or memories which floors grabs and gets it into it. The happy or sad memories show I n the way the floors look. Some of them are cracked. It means the memories were so happy and mirthful that after the family leaves, the floors have cried and have jumped into sadness. Some are very clean. This too has an explanation. It means the person staying was not a sharing sort and kept all things to himself that the floors did not get any hint of his emotions or feelings.  
As we think that our house has something to say about us or the family that has stayed, floors do have its own explanations and briefs to give about the concerned persons.
Each tile is not only measured with the feet but also with the emotions and stories that has been weighed on it.

Unspoken words with Intense gaze.................

Vindhya was sipping hot cup of coffee on her desk. She was reading a quarterly report of her company. As she finished, she glanced at the debt market desk opposite to her. She cannot see him. She was yearning and longing for his eyes, innocuous smile and seductive charm. She was searching for those eyes since one week. It had been a long wait though. Vindhya was an introvert, shy, pretty young lady. She dressed up in a traditional style with Kurti and salwar with nicely braided long hair. She had a finance masters in hand and was working as an Analyst in a financial services firm. Her co workers liked her not only because of the way she looked but also the way she spoke, behaved and her whole nature. She was a quick learner and efficient at work. Ameesh was a Debt market dealer in the same company. He was a reserved person and never mixed with people around. He had a fixed set of 3-4 friends whom he used to hang out with. It had been six mont...

A Nosalgic drive to my Chawl

“Amma, it feels like you have put on the AC. Air has grown cold”, said my 7-year-old lifting up her beady eyes from her maths homework. A cheery hurray followed. I shook the clothes firmly and filed them neatly on the cloth stand. Yes, indeed. There was a light nip in the air. Not due to AC. And, certainly no change in the temperature. It was still a blazing 38 degrees outside. I smiled and was whisked off to my childhood days. To my nondescript haven that would have looked more picturesque in a child’s sketchbook than in reality. A chawl which housed 14 flats adjacent to each other, spaced out at an arm’s length. A place where people were knitted closely together regardless of what social standing they were in. A place where we children had not one but many houses at our perusal to watch television, eat lunch, sleep under the warm covers and take refuge from the angry monsoon spells. A place where aimless wanderings were honoured but not bothered by ruthless meanderings of the rou...

AN EROTIC LOVE STORY

How can I live without you? I have my soul stirring for you. My breathe trusts you. The every sip of you I take, I gain my years. One fine day, the heat waves hit me. When the body sweat gave me shiver down my spine and tinkled me, I could just remember you. I smiled, enjoyed and felt you. When there is heavy pours and when I drench in it, you come in my mind. It is like you are there everywhere. I can feel it.   When I feel like biting you, you almost melt on me and I end up drinking you. When I paint some picture, you come to my mind. Suddenly, my hands urge to dip in you, touch you and brush you everywhere. Tsunami brings back to the memories of your anger. When you are in that state, you drink me. That sinking feeling is special. When I am on a shower, you come and hug me tightly. My heart races up. I get the feeling that you have almost reached me. I could see that as you touch me, you take the roads untraveled and reach almost everywhere. I ...
