The Irony of it all..

Today as i walked through
the empty corridors of my glorious past
memories of my laughter haunted me...

today as i sat by those steps so known..
 once ever so welcome,
memories of all those moments haunted me..

today as i saw the morning blooms,
once ardent spectator of our playful pranks
memories of all those times haunted me...

but why did the rain,
always so welcome feel uninvited this time?
why did every breeze bring about the crackles of our laughter?
why did every droplet remind me of our voices?
did I find myself smiling?
When it was all pain that I was supposed to feel..
did a hum escape my lips?
when you had taken away from me the one tune i truly loved..
did my heart for once abandon my pride?
did it whisper a note of forgiveness?
did it secretly wish to relive those moments?
memories of which I had safely tucked  away,
memories of those bygone past..
did it for once again feel so dear?
And there I hear my soul laughing,
somethings never change! it knew that well...
