The 'You n Me' story

So here goes...my first post at writers lounge...not a poem...kinda like a segmented story...


III Grade:
And sure I sat near you....
we talked...we became friends...
You gave me chocolates....
we copied off each other in exams...
I showed you my home...
we played in the park...
You gave me chocolates....
we played 'House'...
We grew....We outgrew...

I was given my first cycle...
You asked  "yours ?"....
we rode for 6th grade together...
You gave me chocolates...
we copied...we lunched together...
You outgrew me....
time passed....time rushed...

We passed , you were better...
We grew...
11th grade...
we sat in nearby benches...
You gave me chocolates...
You let me copy...
we chatted , we laughed...
You introduced your parents...
we studied , we got close...

We passed , you were better...
we signed up in different colleges...
we fell apart...
I missed you..I called you...
we exchanged numbers...
You talked boys and i talked girls...
we chatted , we laughed...
we got close...
I gave you a novel...you gave me a shirt...
I listened to your plans...
you loved my desires....
we got close...

And one day , we kissed...
we played...we had fun...we laughed...
we shared our music...we shared our passion...
you gave me chocolates...
we kissed , we became closer...
Life was so easy...
Time fluttered...

Time took over...
we played...we shared our music...
I became casual , I became unconcerned...
we compared...we fought...you cried...
you cried more...
we broke-up...

I missed you...i called you...
you didn't answer...
I cried...I writhed...
I grieved for 'us'...I was haunted by 'us'...
I loathed my life...regretted my existence...

And one day , u called me...
You said "Hi.."
You asked how i was...
we were silent...
I said "I Love You"

I hope its good...was inspired by the movies "Dev D"  n  "Paris je t'aime"   ....
