Tribute to Nikita




A friend told me that time isn't the yard stick to measure the depth of the relationship that one shares with another. If it was, I guess our friendship would scale to nothing.

Thankfully, it is not so.

It was a shock, and then pain. Nothing else to describe how I felt when I came to know you were not around.

I curse myself for not calling you and keeping in touch often. I feel guilty that last time when we chatted I was all about myself and didn't ask you how you were? But I thought all was fine with you. Maybe you yourself didn't know what was coming for you. Or maybe you knew and decided not to speak.

It is not often that one connects with another like this. But you are, or should I say were, electric. Maybe that is why you shocked me, and I am sure you left many others without a light.

I hope you are fine where you are. Hope you are in good company and you are as electrifying as you were here. I know you will be.

I am not sure if there is another life. If there is, be around for more time. Light and lighten up as you did whenever we met.

I won't lie to you. I don't think about you daily but I do think about you often.

Miss you.
