Romances

I recently came across this very special song by The Deewarists, and ever since, it has been playing on repeat on my laptop as well as in my head. Characterised by absolutely beautiful music, perfect rhythms, soft vocals, lovely background scores and extremely meaningful lyrics, it provides hope for a new world. A happy world. One reason for such an addictive effect the song had had over the past few days, I realised, was the subtle romance the music brims with. The idea of an entirely different world, a favourite companion, all the time spent together, conversations and laughter shared, happy moments and memories kept alive for ages to come: An excellent thought indeed. The notion of such a setting is refreshing, often makes me smile. 

There’s always a blur as to the ideas, people, places, and you keep adding to the jigsaw before you, pieces that best suit your desires. These pieces need not fit, they need to exist. The very thought of their forming a string of thoughts each knot reminding one of a distinct memory, is fantastic. All through the connecting activity, a happy suspense prevails- the guessing game of people, places, worlds, all so many! But the same romance, the same subtlety, happiness augmenting by bounds. All this brilliance is mostly always lost amid the robotic lifestyles we lead, hardly acknowledging the desires to travel to new worlds with new people. 

No wonder an ideal setting has always been a romantic notion.
