The Departure


We fight for what we feel right, In the end we stay tight

We fight for what we feel right, But in the end we stay tight

We argued, we raised our voices
And left for ourselves hardly any choices.
It was supposed to be fun, but turned into 'hit and run'
It used to be much simpler, unlike yesterday's twists and turns.

You said something that I thought was wrong
Didn't think twice to ask which league you belonged.
You were stubborn and I  wasn't ready to give up my ground
I was such a fool, didn't realize how ugly did it sound.

And for the first time that night, we were fighting
By then we forgot the reason and just kept shouting.
Then things got serious, and our beliefs were on the line
Sad, just a day ago we shared a bottle of red wine.

I was self-centric when I called you 'self-centred'
It wasn't you but me,who behaved like a fucking retard.
We weren't finished we carried it to the next morning
People laughed at us, but there was no stopping.

By the evening we both were tired
We had nothing; all the bullets had been fired.
You started packing; it was your time to leave
That’s when I felt like I'm falling off a cliff.....

What was I trying to prove!! But you should have explained yourself
Anyway, by hurting you, I made a spoof of myself.

Friendship never asks what we don't share
It's all about togetherness, how well we fare.
And I think we agree a lot more than the differences we air
That’s why, from the old days, we are rare for each other.

So we are friends, with a promise of 'friends for life'
Against all the odd vibes
Just hope you still agree that we fight for what we feel right,
But in the end, we stay tight...

  1. Just came across this blog.

    The sequence of events that you have tried to depict seem very real. We all in some way or the other fight over things that seem meaningless over time. But in the end, we all need that special someone in our lives.

    The posts seem to be new but the writing is great. Do you write professionally or you just blog occasionally ?

  3. Yes!! The flashback it is, the genesis of the whisper if I must say!

    The intricate and complex nature of the whisper is starkly visible in the things that this post presents, the things that transpire.
    The rhyming is done aptly to simulate and portray a real life situation feel.
    And it does that work just fine.

    Engrossing, real and a perfect prequel to the classic ghost whispering first article!
    Loved it. Keep the posts coming bro!

    1. Thanks bro... Will keep writing for sure. "The Departure" is indeed inspired from a true incident. You aptly put the thesis, as always. :)
