Perfect – Ed

I vividly remember our late night conversations.
I would slowly take her in, inside my dream. And she’d know I had lost her to sleep. She happily forgave.
Prerana — a beautiful girl with a heart of liquid gold, the one who also wore a contagious, melting smile under her nose. A gifted Master-chef and certainly the one of a kind who always showed up like warmth radiating through the first winter sun.
Hands on the heart.
Dear Prerana,
I am utterly grateful that our path crossed, that I had an opportunity to know you, to understand you in an uncompromised wholeness.
Little words they seem but you’re the best person I’ve befriended and happily allowed myself to be openly open with, open about.
You have done so much for me, haven’t you? Helped me in infinite ways I know I cannot repay; taught me life lessons only you could’ve sowed, did deeds only you cared enough to owe on me and all of them in the most selfless manner I can imagine. You were my guardian angel during all my worst days, and the happiest soul in few excellent ones too. You’ve seen me in tears and you’ve seen me at my best. You’ve seen me broke and you’ve seen me grow.
And maybe because it is in your name ‘PRERANA’ that I already find all the examples of genuine, unadulterated emotions crystallized, cleared and absorbed within you. Your silver soul will forever shine on me I promise.
A quarter century of my life have passed but I have never met anyone like you. To me, you are the only one of your kind. To me, you are … special.
And because of you, your imminent, unspoken, silent and strong gravitational pull of sweet goodness you had (and will forever have) on me; your silky qualities of the past and hopefully in the future too, that I still selfishly long for your lavish company when empty.
Once again, thank you from the bottom corner of my heart for always being there for me.
Always Smile ae’
