"The Last Lecture"

By Chirag Ajmera

They walked in the same direction

Towards the same room

Looked at the board

One last time;

They were sitting together

In the same room

For the lecture

One Last time;

They took out their pens

Made some notes

Learnt the theories

One Last Time;

They smiled at each other

Amused by the moment

About the journey

One Last Time;

They were marked "Present"

Cherished the "Present"

For the "Future" to come

One Last Time;

They knew its the last time "Together"

They knew its not going to be "Forever"

They were still there

One Last time;

And in that "One Last Time"

They realized...

"One Last Time"

And then

"Never Again" ?

The heart skipped a beat.

For the First Time !

Will we ever meet again ?

Whispered one heart !

And one replied ...." "!

Smiling! They part their ways...
