Goggles In Space

Love and colour of my life...Best half ! Nothing is more magical than a surprise from you Nothing more melodious than you calling me ( 'Ammu' ) Nothing more valuable than a kiss planted on my forehead Nothing more tranquilizing than a morning walk with you Nothing more unwinding than a drive with you Nothing merrier than sight seeing holding your hands Nothing tastier than a meal you cook Nothing more refreshing than watching sunrise and sunset with you Nothing more relaxing than sleeping with you Nothing more exhausting than fighting with you and nothing more painful than parting with you ! I want to live every second with you, and grow old with you.

I need that one warm hug everyday and your broad shoulders to cuddle up every night. Those everyday letters i wrote after engagement ,wish i had them here to read while you are on travel. I had a special ring tone for you , though incoming calls were rare ! Remember the ONE time we met in Bangalore before marriage ? the one time just the two of us know :) your eyes were gleaming with true love . I can still feel your breath by my neck ! Heart was full of joy but nervous too. Fifteen years and counting, joy has only multiplied. Nervousness has vanished.. You are present in my every wish and dream. I want to wear big earrings or silk saree, that is because you are with me. I want to dress up and look beautiful because you are by my side. I want to welcome guests and have parties b...
