she was to become a butterfly".would she still love me?" that is what the moth thought as he looked at the caterpillar.she was looking at her too. and it wasn't just looking it was as if she was looking at her to keep her image in her mind for ever. the caterpillar was trembling she was scared to lose her memory or what if she becomes a cocoon and something happens to the moth. the next day the caterpillar had become a cocoon. the moth still sat staring at it. jumping at the slightest of the movement. days passed . nights passed. the moth tried and remembered all the promises the caterpillar had made. the times the caterpillar had sat staring at her. she cried. she begged the cocoon to make it fast. she talked to the cocoon. to the moth there was nothing to the world except the caterpillar. she was happy that caterpillar was growing up. but it did not change the fact that moth was too scared of losing the caterpillar. the day caterpillar came out . the moth sighed in relief that the caterpillar looked the same. but the caterpillar was busy admiring its wings. the colors. the moth was scared to speak. the butterfly flied around the moth. that night butterfly said that she will take the moth to various places. she did take her around but it was till the time other butterflies made fun of her for this. butterfly started befriending the other butterflies. the moth and butterfly fought a lot. the moth was jealous . and the butterfly. well she was fed up. so the butterfly told the moth that she was leaving . moth wanted to say a lot of things. like it was impossible to live without her. that she loved her. she wanted to remind the butterfly of the promises that the butterfly had made. but nothing could make her stay. butterfly was impatient to leave. the moth just looked up and said " after all you are the butterfly. and i am a moth. i have no reason to make you stay. take care. i will be waiting." the butterfly smiled and kissed the moth . without knowing the effect the kiss had on the moth. she left. and if you ask me if the moth is still waiting. i would say no. the moth is fine now. but yes, there is not a single night that she doesn't dream of the butterfly. there is not a single day that she tries to find the face of the butterfly in other butterflies. and you know what the irony is . the butterfly carried the face of the caterpillar. and it did not change the fact that that was the only thing they had in common. some of us fall out of love as waking up from a dream. to some of us what other people say is more important but to some of us. the world is a stage and there we just see other people performing and that one person. we try to give all our attention to their performance hoping that they would see your performance too. when people leave. specially someone you love leaves. no reason they give is justified. because the ultimate fact is that they are leaving you. and you are here to stay. that you loved more when you both had promised to be equal lovers. then you stop trusting and loving that way. people think that they move on . oh no they don't . because what you want can never be replaced by something that you don't.
moonlight i love you.
