At an arm’s length with you! Abhishek Haridasan

“It shouldn’t have been like this! We were meant to be in each other’s arms. Our love was pure, yet someone stained it. Our laughter was infectious, yet someone wiped it out completely.

Our arms were soft with our embraces, yet someone poked thorns into them. Why did this happen a week before our engagement?

I don’t seek answers, yet your silence is deafening. All I ask is for 15 minutes to sit on a park bench and talk about the past few weeks.

If you have cold feet, we can warm them at the fireplace. If you’re iffy about the future, we can visit a religious centre to find inner peace.

We aren’t meant to be at an arm’s length. We’re destined for tight hugs and long heartfelt embraces. Don’t you think so?

I won’t settle for a disconnect without clearing the air. Our sensibilities matter and we must unite!

My heart feels that our heads will tilt, our lips shall meet and our kisses will multiply! We’re meant for one another; our arms touching each other and not at an arm’s length.

The purity of our love and relationship will prevail! “
