My ballad...

On a pleasant evening in 2001
When the only thing down was the sun…
We met at Bangalore on Lavelle road
And since then never have we been bored…

She came along wth a friend or two…
And after the usual niceties and who’s who
We started on a note very sweet
From Koramangala sukh sagar some sweets we did eat

After some time had passed
And some courage she had amassed,
She asked to be left alone with me
No doubt, much to my glee!

We went driving around town in the night
With her, even Bangalore roads were a pleasant sight
And no onlooker would rate
That it was our first ever date.

We were the made-for-each-other kind
And in her love I did go blind.
We went together everywhere,
Rain or shine we din’t so much care!

In all these years, there was just one moment
When I let her down and I still repent
I think our relationship is unique
And apart from her, no other I seek

Just as I thought we were ready for a commitment of life
I realize I have to face tough strife
I hear her say I want to go ‘Fida’ or have the ‘Xing’
And to my dismay a Fiesta or Santro she is eyeing!
