First of all, I wasn't angry, Trippy! 😆 Just kinda irritated, what with all the studying to do for today's exam! By the way, it went well! Wrote and wrote till my fingers ached! 🤣
Coming to your poem, I am just swaying because it was so beautiful. I am listening to The Heart Wants What It Wants Instrumental, and it felt so perfect while I was reading the poem.
I could watch and feel her cocooned in the shell, the warmth of the envelope seeping into her, as her chest rises and falls in rhythm.
The silence was calm and like a balm to her tired soul. I could even hear the sudden sound that awoke her from her slumber. The way her body felt the rush of blood as she straightened, now fully awake. The body still hummed with sleep, the heat suddenly dissipating and giving way to colder air around her.
Her restlessness was palpable a bit. Although, I never feel so restless when I wake up. All I want to do is sleep some more.
'Took a giant leap of faith'
This line made me breathe in deeply.
'She slipped and fell'
I couldn't help but stop breathing a bit, as I felt her free fall. But I was confused as to how she would react. Would she be reaching out to grab onto something, her heart beating rapidly at the sudden change, or would she be lifeless and let her body sail in the air, doing nothing but, watching the cliff disappear from her vision.
When his hand reached out, I felt as if am watching a promo of a supernatural show, where her hand is shown in close up, and another hand reaches out in the same screen and grabs onto her either outstretched hand or lifeless hand, and then pulling it up.
I cannot help but picture a bare chested Parth, pulling Vidushi up and making her stand firmly on the ground, while his wings, all white and full, stay half open in their silent whispering glory. While Vidushi's wings are tattered a bit, feathers pulled out here and there and refusing to open up. It's like her heart is half unsure and doesn't want to open up.
'He helped her spread her wings, He let the Caged Bird fly!'
This line made me imagine Vidushi as a small bird, a baby bird, in fact, still taking baby steps to fly, but failing miserably, when Parth's kind hands, scoop up the bird, and brings it close to his face, as he nuzzles his nose and nurses it. Then, before we know it, he is encouraging the bird and helping it spread it's wings wide. And when it's ready, he places one last kiss, before the bird leaps out of his hands and flies..
*after reading the prologue*
Vidushi beta! Tu aur kitni broken rahegi?!?!?! Sowie, Trippy, but right now, I need some humour and RD and Parth gave that for me in the next scene! 🤣 Wahahahahha... 🤣 Hangs his arse upside down like a bat! 🤣 🤣 This was freaking hilarious!! Heehee... It really is tough to do, actually! So at first, I thought Bhai would be Sahil, but now that I've read the rest, am wondering if these two, RD and Parth, are Professional kidnappers, or just Gundaas! 🤣
Now, I am wondering Vids' father maybe in some debt or something, or pissed the "Bhai" off, so is being "lifted" by this couple! 🤣 I thought, it was Vidushi being kidnapped. But who knows what you're gonna make 'em do!😉 Kuch bhi ho sakta hain!
Trippy baby!! 🤗 Awesome!!!
