Love Still Remains !!

It was a winter night. There was something in the air that felt strangely beautiful. They sat  holding hands looking at the clear starry night. Whispering sweet nothings in each other's ears. Love was all around. But then there was an unsaid sadness in the breeze too. He was leaving in a few days. He would miss the twinkle in her eyes. She would miss his hugs and kisses.

It was a night when they knew its gonna be 6 months before they see each other again. It was the night when they re-lived all their promises. And then she pointed at the Orion to him and said "When you get lonely and sad on the ship. Look up at the Orion and you would know there's someone looking at it too and smiling at you."

It has been 4 years now. Times have changed. Life has taken them onto different paths. They failed at the tests of time and the huddles that life had in store for them. Promises couldn't be kept. Last time they spoke, he asked her to let him go. After all that they'd been through together, it only seemed fair. She didn't want to hold him any longer for he had a right to live his life again.Everything's changed but Love still remains!

Today, she still looks at the Orion hoping somewhere in this corner of the world he's looking at it too and smiling back at her!
