I am a guy of small town Gwalior, working in gurgaon right now. I spent almost 10 years in Gwalior. I have done my schooling From RamKrishna Vidhya Mandir and done my engineering in computer science from MITS. Gwalior has a special place in my heart and its reflected in my habits also .I always prefer roadside chai wale than baristas or café coffee day ,small one screen theater than PVR and DT multiplexes .I got this poem from the forwarding mails. The author is unknown to me , but kudos to the author.
WAH WAH Gwalior...
Woh Nayi sadak ka sama, woh Brijwasi ki chaat,
Woh monica ki ice cream, Wah usme thi kuch baat.
Woh pandit sweet ki mithai, woh ICH ka dosa,
Woh srinath ki pav bhaji aur Jain ka samosa.
Woh tempu ka saffer, woh phool bag ki hawa,
Woh Maheshwari Park ki raunak aur Laxmi bai colony ka sama.
Woh January ki kadake ki sardi, woh baarishon ke
mahiney,
Woh garmi ki chuttiyan, jab chute te they paseeney.
Woh holi ki masti, woh doston ki toli,
Woh diwali ke patakhe aur janmashtmi ki roli
Woh Kila gate ki patange aur woh Cricket ka khel,
Woh ghar ki chat pe Cricket aur colony ke ladkon ka chaurahe pe mail.
Woh padav ka mahol, Woh chambal ghati se ati thandi leheren
Woh Sarafa ka nazara, Wah uske kya kehene.
Woh Loha mandi ki galiyan , woh KRG ki ladkiyan.
Woh Roxy ki balcony aur woh Agarwal ki pooriyan
Woh school ki life aur woh College ki Zindagi,
Woh MITS ka rasta aur woh Canteen ki patties
Woh College ki kudiyan aur GH ke saamne mel
Humne bhi bas dekhe hi thei wo saare khel.
Woh Nazar bagh ki market, wo highway ke dhabe
Woh poorane Gwalior ki raaste ,jahan humne safar hain kaate .
Wo chauraha , wo Railway station………
Itna sab keh diya par dil kehta hai aur bhi kuch kahoon
Wo shehar hain mera apna, jiska naam hai Gwalior

If You Love Someone ,Just Say it
Few days back, I got a nice forwarded mail .I also agree to the theory ” if u love someone just say it” .
10th Grade
As I sat there in English class,
I stared at the girl next to me.
She was my so called 'best friend'.
I stared at her long, silky hair,
and wished she was mine.
But she didn't notice me like that,
and I knew it. After class,
she walked up to me and asked me for
the notes she had missed the day before.
I handed them to her.
She said 'thanks' and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know
that We don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.
11th grade
The phone rang. On the other end,
it was her. She was in tears,
mumbling on and on about how her
love had broke her heart.
She asked me to come over because
she didn't want to be alone, So I did.
As I sat next to her on the sofa,
I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine.
After 2 hours, one Drew Barrymore movie,
and three bags of chips, she decided to go home.
She looked at me, said 'thanks' and gave me a kiss
on the cheek..
I want to tell her, I want her to know that
We don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.
Senior year
One fine day she walked to my locker.
"My date is sick" she said, well,
I didn't have a date, and in 7th grade,
we made a promise that if neither of us had dates,
we would go together just as 'best friends'.
So we did. That night, after everything was over,
I was standing at her front door step.
I stared at her as she smiled at me
and stared at me with her crystal eyes.
Then she said- "I had the best time, thanks!"
and gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her,
I want her to know
that We don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.
Graduation
A day passed, then a week, then a month.
Before I could blink, it was graduation day.
I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel
up on stage to get her diploma.
I wanted her to be mine-but
she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it.
Before everyone went home,
she came to me in her smock and hat,
and cried as I hugged her.
Then she lifted her head from my shoulder
and said- 'you're my best friend, thanks' and
gave me a kiss on the cheek.
I want to tell her, I want her to know
that We don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.
Marriage
Now I sit in the pews of the church.
That girl is getting married now.
and drive off to her new life,
married to another man.
I wanted her to be mine,
but she didn't see me like that,
and I knew it.
But before she drove away,
she came to me and said 'you came !'.
She said 'thanks' and kissed me on the cheek.
I want her to know that
We don't want to be just friends,
I love her but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.
Death
Years passed, I looked down at the coffin
of a girl who used to be my 'best friend'.
At the service, they read a diary entry
she had wrote in her high school years.
This is what it read:
"I stare at him wishing he was mine;
but he doesn't notice me like that,
and I know it. I want to tell him,
I want him to know that
We don't want to be just friends,
I love him but I'm just too shy,
and I don't know why.
I wish he would tell me he loved me !
..........'I wish I did too...'
I thought to my self, and I cried.
So if you are in love, do yourself a favour .... Tell her/ him that you love them.
They won't be there ................... Forever ......
