| WILL TRUE LOVE COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT? |
| by Maha |
"It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel."
This is where I am trapped.I have loved only one person with all my heart, since I met him.And he still has no idea of how I feel.
I was only thirteen when I first met the one I love.I never believed in things like "love at first sight", but the feeling that I got in the core of my very heart and soul could only be explained as love.I knew that he felt it too.
I come from an extended family where my grandmother was my life and inspiration.As she was a traditional Hindu woman I too became shaped by the morals and values of my religion.So it was at a prayer preparation that I met him.I always believed, and still do that God has sent someone special for me...and it is only when the time is ripe he will come find me.I hope it would be the one I love.
When we met we became close and his family loved me.My family was close to his and so we were always in contact.If I was not at their house thay were at mine; and at other times we always met in the temple;in God's house where my love for him grew stronger.He always treated me special when around others.I was his "baby".
Then I grew up and I was no longer a baby.He finished his A level exams and started University and I started A levels.So from there we were all busy.I stopped going to temple.That was after my grandmother died.My life took a turning point when my grandma died.I felt as if nothing worse could have happened to me.I started concentrating on my studies only and neglected God;which I am now reaping the consequences for.Anyway, I continued loving this one person.The little crushes I had when I started University fails in comparison to my one true love.Now he is a Doctor and I am a few months away from my attaining my BA Degree.And I don't know what will happen to me and my life.
Soon he will be leaving for England and he will be gone for a number of years.And this is why I now feel that I I should have said something about how I feel.Is it too late?,I keep asking myself.And if not, who will I confide in?
I sometimes cry myself to sleep just thinking about this person and how I have given all my love to someone, for all these years without telling anyone.I talk to God because he knows how I really feel.But I am lost.I have no idea what to do next.I have alwys beleved that the day for my love's wedding would either be the happiest day of my life,or the day I truly lose my one and only true love forever.If only I knew what to do.In one year, even less, my life would be changed forever.So what will it be?Will my love be reciprocated? Only God and time will tell.Only God knows my destiny.I know however, that whatever happens I would always love him and keep him close to my heart.That is the beauty of my love.I will always keep my true love with me wherever I go.You see, when you fall in love there is no going back:"It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it takes a lifetime to forget someone"...especially someone you have loved forever.
