Will you?

By Saraswati Varma

Will you resemble these complex feelings? Will you accept me for who I am and not discard me as you know me a little better? Will you ever trust me with your future? Will you ever understand the importance of your presence in my process of healing? Will you understand my dumb smiles?

Will you get my thoughts even when I am not speaking? Will you stand by me with every page that turns? Will you make these shifting eyes feel settled? Will you give me that rush every time I am acquainted with a fact that gets me to know you a little better? Will you know the amount of courage it takes to just greet someone? Will you be able to make out the difference between me ignoring and me avoiding? Will the eye contact that lasts just for a second mean the world to you too? Will you understand my side of the story? Will you be something beyond my expectations? Will you understand these question marks? Will you ever make me stop writing this?

Will you?
