Some time alone

Sitting at Marine Drive. The sea is so beautiful, infinite. The sun is about to set. The sky is yellow red orange blue. Not bothered by anyone and who's looking. Cut off from the traffic, wind blowing through my hair. Feeling comfortable. Just me, the sea and the sun.

Sitting in a Churchgate bound train. Slightly empty compartment. Watching other trains go by. Eyes moving rapidly. Holding a book in my hand and my finger as a bookmark. Thoughts of me jumping off the train. It's dark outside, beautifully dark. Just me, the book and the thought.

You'll never feel lonely with a book and a thought!

Hi Dhrubo,
well...the book I was reading was Veronika decides to die...so mind was wandering n hence the thought.

Hi Titash,
Long time since u dropped by. thanks. well..lonely...where did that come from! anyway I think it depends on the mood n what kind of thoughts n books that will not keep u lonely.

Sorry for not explaining earlier.
I was always under the impression that lonely people find time to think about jumping of trains!

Jumping off the train to see if your angels care for you?

and one more thought i had, the parapit of Marine Drive is a dividing line, it divides to separate worlds...Land and Water, noise and peace...
