The first thing on my mind as I wake up is You.
I check my phone for your message, wait for you call.
Deep down, I hope for a message from you.
The day passes; you continue to give me space.
Then I walk in for lunch...
And I am greeted with your feedback form.
Something from you- Even if it was not exclusively for me.
It brightens my day, I light up.
I sit down with a heart filled with happiness...
Open the Tiffin to fill my senses with the beautiful aroma of your Daal...the one I had asked you to make...
And then I catch myself slipping away...I cannot afford that.
So I close the Tiffin and rest my head resignedly over it...and decide to punish myself for day dreaming again...
I cannot have any reminder of you anywhere near me, so I order that they cancel my Tiffin from you.
LOL. Apparently, everyone is afraid of you, Sumo- My Assistant hesitates as he is asked to call you.
I look curiously at him, wishing I could eavesdrop on the conversation- I am dying to hear your voice.
Your message is delivered to me- You are sensitive about your food...I know that, but I am sorry.
I really can't help this- I badly need my sane self back.
The rest of the day is thankfully filled with court related activities that help me take my mind off you...
I take a drive back home in the afternoon, and you are standing there in front of my eyes like a vision...A Vision, you know.
Are you real? May be not?
Are my feelings real? Perhaps...Though I'd rather not dwell on it much.
But it is as if I am driving through a dream...Your presence fills the emptiness in me...I can't take my eyes off you.
What is it about you that I can't have any control over myself?
How unfair it is that my heart continues to hope...when all I want is just you as my friend.
I would give the world to have you beside me without any of the complexities my mind draws up...
How you torment me, my Sumo!
PS:
The drive reminded me of this song- hence the title.😳

I also loved the addition of that feedback form and the way they used it. Brilliant Writing! 👏
Happy Weekend, Guys! 🤗
