Fate, Or Something Like It

It's funny how things work themselves out. Not funny ha-ha but funny I-can't-keep-this-smile-off-my-face. I have never been a believer of fate or ultimate plans, but something made me take awe in the unexplained chain of events that led me here, that led me to you. Because something so intricately woven cannot be charged to just mere coincidence. It's like the path has been laid out before, and we are entities gladly free flowing into what is meticulously designed to be.

His Smile In That Picture

Whenever I need a happy memory, I think of you and your smile in that picture. So pronounced and infectious. Beneath the blazing sky, the auditory racket, in the middle of organized chaos, I was there, and then, you were there. But above everything else, your smile was there. An emotion so rare before, a vision so fleeting, was at that time proudly present in all its giddy glory. I looked at you, amazed, and I feel my heart smile along with me.
