If Ever You Are Feeling Lonely...






I have to admit that I am a "Sex & The City" addict to the core. While catching up on the weekly re-runs, I saw this one episode where Mr. Big is moving out of New York and Carrie Bradshaw is trying her bit as the send off, a night before his flight. Well Miranada decides to deliver the same night and Carrie's plans go awry. 

In a bid to catch the last glimpse of Mr. Big, Carrie rushes to his apartment, only to find it empty sans a music record. It had a post it over it and it read - 

" If ever you are feeling lonely...."

There was a flight ticket as well with the same message - "If ever you are feeling lonely..."

The moment I saw this episode, the events of the evening reverberated in my mind. My bestie had thanked the one above for sending me every time he was feeling low. Over the years, I have helped him with advices, a patient ear, sounding board, crackling reality checks, money, mad travel memories, silent long drives and the list goes on. 

The episode made me wonder, what all would I be willing to offer, if someone dear to me was ever to feel lonely? So here it comes.

If ever you are feeling lonely... I would offer to be the silent company to sail you through...
If ever you are feeling lonely...I would be the chatter box to distract the hell out of you...

If ever you are feeling lonely... I would get you the best poison ( you know what I mean) to help you unwind...
If ever you are feeling lonely...I would offer the gyaan that only Sri Sri Sonal (wink) could ever deliver...

If ever you are feeling lonely...I would crack PJs to irritate you...
If ever you are feeling lonely...I would offer a hug that might last several minutes...

If ever you are feeling lonely...I would take you for a memorable road trip...
If ever you are feeling lonely...I would tell you to just hang in there till the storm passes...

If ever you are feeling lonely...I would play your favorite tunes...
If ever you are feeling lonely...I would get you your favorite take out meal...

If ever you are feeling lonely...  I would push you to watch the most paisa vasool movie running in theaters that week...
If ever you are feeling lonely...and I see no signs of the feeling receding... I might just shake you up a bit and tell you to get a grip...

If ever you are feeling lonely...  I would take you out for a long drive on a star lit night or may be a star less one too...
If ever you are feeling lonely...I would send you a random text that would say  - "Just checking up on you..."

If ever you are feeling lonely...I would take you to Sri Bangla Sahib Gurudwara in the wee hours of the day...
If ever you are feeling lonely...I would come over to your place with two buckets of ice cream - Vanilla & your favorite flavor...

If ever you are feeling lonely...I would surprise you with that big sized "Silk" chocolate...
If ever you are feeling lonely...I would surprise you with an unexpected gift...

If ever you are feeling lonely...you don't have to worry...coz I would be around...
