― J. Bree, Broken Bonds

“I felt like I was seeing through him. Through his skin, his muscles, his bones. All the way down into his soul. I wondered if just a lifetime with him would be enough. Not as a friend, or neighbor, or even a lover, but as a person. Would I get to know him beyond this life? Beyond the bodies that we're in right now? Not knowing the answer to that question terrified me.
Because I wanted to know him in every lifetime.”
― Sarah A. Bailey, The Soulmate Theory

“We we're made from the same dying star, put on this earth to search one another out and bind ourselves together for all eternity.”

“You in my eyes!

You wake up in my eyes like the morning Sun,
You surround my life like the day and its busy schedules,
You are there when I am sitting idle or pursuing errands undone,
Because thinking of you is the default part of all my schedules,

Then when the day tires me,
You sleep in my eyes,
There in my dreams with me to be,
While I wish I never opened my eyes,

And in the darkness of the night that spreads everywhere,
I hold my eyelids tight,
To not let your dreams escape from the crevices in my eyes somewhere,
And throughout the night I hold you in this dreamy delight tight,

Then as the morning bird taps its beak on the glass window,
I let the night cease for me as I let your beauty leave the territory of my eyes,
And percolate into the morning light that flashes over the willow,
Then begins the magic of recreating you in the light of the day with my open eyes,

And then my darling Irma, you spread like the sunshine in every corner of my world,
And wherever I go I carry my universe with me,
In my eyes, your dreams your views and my entire world,
And that is how I like it to be, at least for now this is me,

But there are moments when dreams in closed or open eyes,
Are awakened by your memories,
And how I wish I could vanish into the skies,
Because on Earth I miss you and our realities,

How you feel I do not know, maybe you feel the same,
But then a Summer without flowers is not a true Summer,
And in a flowerless Summer nothing feels the same,
You too could have evolved the feeling to tell me, “my darling let me be your flowery Summer!”

Nevertheless, for now let me close my eyes and dream again of you,
The Summer, the flowers and us together,
To feel once more how I once felt with you,
And maybe this time when I vanish into the skies we shall be together!”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“What Are These Thoughts Irma?

What are these dreams that you beget me,
What are these memories with which you still mesmerise me,
What are these thoughts Irma where I always wish to be,
What are these visions that your endless beauty brings to me,
What is this feeling with which you embrace me,
What is this spell of love in which I always wish to be,
What are these sweet longings that your thoughts beget me,
What is that I feel whenever I think of thee,
Why is it that I always with you wish to be,
Whether I am in a quiet forest or a vast sea,
Why is it that I always wish to see thee,
Why is it that I want you to invade me?
With your senses until your heart beats echo inside me,
And then let the heaven know that you belong to me,
And this is how till eternity it shall now be,
Where I would spend infinity loving thee,
And I hope, you too with the same passion will forever love me!”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“You are the shore of my life!

I know that you reside in your dreams and in your desires,
You, your beauty and my desires,
I feel still need to find a way to intersect somewhere,
To give birth to the desire allowing us to meet somewhere,
Where your dreams are mine too,
And where my desires reflect in your eyes too,
Maybe you still need to understand why the waves rush to the shore,
And that my sea of life, so deeply wants to you to be my only shore,
Where to all my dreams, my desires, my wishes flow,
And I shall wish for nothing else anymore, just to be in this ceaseless flow,
Where all my waves of life pass through you and unto you,
To rest at the shore where my life feels it has eventually found you,
In my every wish and my heart’s every desire,
Where you are the last and only shore of my life and you my only desire,
Then when my sea of life pours into your life’s territory,
Love shall find an immortal existence in this endless territory,
Where all your wishes and my infinite desires form its boundary,
And we shall live within this territory of love, where only our wishes form its territory,
So let these lapping waves of the sea of life feel your feet,
For as you wade through the waters of life I shall feel thy feet,
Walking through the landscape of my endless desires and wishes,
Perhaps then Irma, you would let your sea of life empty itself into the territory of my wishes,
Then we shall let our heart beats float along with these rushing waves of life,
Until our universe is reduced to your wishes, my desires and only our life,
Maybe then, maybe then, the waves of life will rise no more,
For then our lives would have found and rested at the most placid shore.
Where a feeling of serenity spreads like a vast blanket over the sea of life,
And loving each other becomes the only desire and the single wish of life,
Then my love, the moon shall shine and you will be mine,
And we shall surrender our identities because now, all my joys will be yours and all your desires will be mine.”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“The Timid Gods!

When the sun shines high,
And it leaves its morning shyness,
As it dominates the light spreading across the vastness of the sky,
Then let me reflect back to it your loveliness,


When the sun beams dazzle over flowers many,
And they sway with the afternoon breeze,
Let me show them your beautiful avatars many,
And ah their unease,


When the river flows at its enjoyable pace to meet the sea,
Then let me submerge your essences into the infinite reservoir of feelings,
Then as the river meets the sea, let it see,
That in the sea of beauty every drop, every wave and every ripple is a creation of your beauty’s dealings,


When the God of beauty wakes up from the blissful sleep,
Let me cast your shadows around the universe,
And as its reflections to and fro leap,
Then let the God’s realise their acts perverse,


Because Gods sometimes resort to fiendish timidity,
Where they believe the universe is for them alone,
And when I show them your beauty,
Then let them realise that they too, to many weaknesses are prone,


When the winter approaches and the rose in the winter garden lies abandoned,
By the summer kisses and beauty’s secret visitations,
Let me make you touch its heart that in winter freeze lies stoned,
Then let the God’s feel their privations,


And when my love Irma, you allow me to,
I shall create a new order in the Universe,
Where love given is the love received too,
Then, that shall be the universe to which no one shall be averse.”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“Where my heart wanders!

Where does my heart often tend to wander,
This is what I often wonder,
Where does she meet me in my dreams,
As she descends all over me riding those Moon beams,
Where do her thoughts often lead me from my sleepy world,
Why is it that I like her long hair when it is slightly curled,
As she gazes at me with those sparkling eyes,
Why is it that many stars miss their twinkle in those night skies,
When she presents me the Summer rose,
Why I feel she keeps humming in my mind love’s most melodious prose,
Then wherever she goes, I follow her like the summer rose,
Here there and everywhere until I sing back to her, her own love prose,
And then as her face with charm and joy glows,
I look at her beautiful smile and my heart beat slows,
Then as she holds my hand and there I transfixed stand,
Why is it that my desire and my feelings nothing demand,
For every desire now seems fulfilled and every wish satisfied,
In your presence Irma my world is perfectly beautified,
No longer to oscillate between desires and wishes,
For a feeling of love that springs from the heart never perishes,
Time becomes its custodian,
And the will of God its guardian!”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“You and Me!

In the summer garden,
Where flowers abound,
With joys never felt before or begotten,
There my love I always have found,
You, In the soft fluttering of butterflies’ wings,
In the tender swaying of these beautiful Summer flowers,
In the heart beat of those young lovers whose hearts a melody sweet sings,
While I seek you in these Summer flowers and in the shadows of carefree lovers,
And as the afternoon Sun shines brighter,
And the angle of every shadow changes,
Then how I miss to hold you tighter,
Before like these shadows the feeling escapes into new emotional ranges,
Where you are the peak and summit of everything,
The Summer, The Summer bliss and my love for you,
And then with my feelings I wrap everything,
Now in the moment it is just us: the Summer, me and you,
Then as dusk descends on the scenes of life,
I stack your memories in my heart and in my mind,
To embark on my new ambition, the night and our life,
Where now, your memories and my feelings I unwind,
And cast them over these golden beams,
As they spread everywhere,
My love Irma, my heart with my mind teams,
And then it is you, just you, in everything and everywhere!”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“You me and our love!


There she was,
In the calmness of the morning,
Yes there she was,
Spreading her presence in ways mesmerising and charming,
As her beauty hung everywhere now,
Here, there, to be everywhere,
I felt a world of beauty it was now,
Where I belonged only with you somewhere,
Now she was in the daylight as well,
The light, the day and she,
Beauty that was covering everything so well,
That I felt the entire universe was nothing, but her deep eyes and she,
And in this interplay of lights and your beauty, I wondered where I was,
Then I discovered that with you I too was everywhere my love,
For now Irma, everything that there was,
It was you, me and our love!”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“Everything is only you!

Sometimes my heart wants to escape with my head,
But my heart beats in all directions tend to tread,
And my mind that only thinks of you,
Eventually lets my heart beats become an echo of you,

Where your memories lie everywhere, and stare at me,
From every corner, every side, every direction, it is just you that I see,
And then my love Irma, I love you,
Quietly in my heart beats and my mind creates visual glimpses of you,

Which appear and fade like bubbles in the sea of time,
And whenever a bubble of excitement is about to reach its prime,
It bursts and the bubble sprays infinite droplets of memories bearing an image of you,
And then how I miss you!

Maybe you will never know it,
That shall be the tragedy of time and feelings of love which are forfeit,
Still I shall think of you and love to create this bubble with you,
And feel the droplets of your kisses, which are but distant memories of you,

Time travels at its pace but human memories somehow master the art of lying in a timeless space,
Where the moments from the past through the lanes of mind towards every heartbeat pace,
It is so with me, yet I love to love you,
Whenever I travel in the train of time I wish to journey only unto you,

So let the memories be there Irma and let the feelings stay true,
Let the present know, that it is past that rules and leaves a clue,
For the lovers to pick, just like I in every present seek you,
This clue from the past, makes me find you in the present, that Universe creates only for me and you,

In every bubble of memory that bursts and creates endless droplets of memories,
Which cover my body and soul with these time’s pleasantries,
Where you grow over me like a skin of feelings and I feel you,
Like a touch growing all over me, where everything is now you and only you!”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“Semua hanya tentang waktu, tunggulah dan tetap doakan, jangan berubah atau menyerah.”
― Fram Han, Jejak Memori

“Net of love!

What are these scenes unfolding,
Over the water of the lake,
Where boats are sailing though water is randomly flowing,
Is it a sight of motion with no mistake?

As the fisherman casts his net,
And its octagonal boundaries gradually sink into the water,
Where they now lie in their world wet,
And wait as octagonal shapes and one single net, when put together,

A shoal of fish swims freely and maybe happily too,
As they enter this octagonal mesh that waits in silence,
The fisherman feels something stir in his mind too,
And pulls the net breaking his wait of prolonged patience,

And he smiles at the fish struggling to break free,
He holds them one by one and tosses them on the floor,
This is how it has always been and this is how it shall always be,
The struggle for the floor to be the sky and for the sky to even invade the floor,

For what spring and summer tames as beauty,
Shall be confounded by the Autumn that appears to appear too soon,
For in the temple of life there is no deity,
There is only the law of bane and the boon,

So I watch the fish wriggle on the floor of the boat,
As my thoughts sail away with the one I love,
And I cast my net over the vast expanse of fate as I wait,
To notice in her the same feeling of love reflecting all over my net of love,

That I cast only to seek her attention and few smiles,
While her beauty glides throughout the universe,
Her charm is rendered eternal across the universe’s infinite miles,
And my net of love also gets cast across this endless universe!”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“Pact of love

Not in the silence but in the stillness of quietude I want to be with you,
Then as our heartbeats break the silence I want to tell you,
Darling I love you,
And see the flash of joy arise from you,

And let the quiet stillness be intruded by you,
By your smiles, by your heart beats, by anything that represents you,
Then as my world of emotions and feelings grows over you,
I shall attempt to steal you from you,

To reside somewhere in the eternal stillness with you,
Where there is the world but it exists only for me and you,
Then as my feelings sink inside you,
I shall tune my heart beats with that of you,

Then even the stillness will not disturb me and you,
Because now it will be hard to tell whether you are inside me or I am inside you,
With feelings merged as one, with heart beats beating as one, I shall now see my world through you,
Then my love Irma, we shall sign our pact of love bearing just one line, “I was born to love you!”
― Javid Ahmad Tak, They Loved in 2075!

“Darling ... your small eyes make my nights longer.”

“Japanese lilies and her beautiful face

In a crowded market place,
People walked, moved; and quite a few preferred to amble,
While I searched for my known space,
Where she sells beauty’s earthly samples without too much too gamble,
I walked past the busy spaces and the bustling market views,
People haggling, a few arguing,
It was like life was tasked to seek reviews,
In ways pleasing and many a time annoying,
Finally I reached there where I wanted to be,
And there she was this beautiful maiden,
And as she prospected every face, her eyes finally rested on me,
For a while nothing existed, as if time its pace had forgotten,
Only to be revived back to life,
When the maiden at the flower shop said,
“Hello, and welcome to the shop of beautiful life,”
My eyes moved, my lips shivered and in response I only shook my head,
I looked at flowers with different colours,
And her eyes followed mine to every spot where they rested,
I could be there, with the flowers and the maiden, for many hours,
Because at this flower shop, all the flowers only of her beauty attested,
She knew it too because the sparkle in her eyes was brewing with confidence,
She knew she was like the most beautiful summer rose that ever existed,
And I only visited the shop to feel surrounded by this beauty’s appeal so dense,
Her beauty was not just a visual act but an experience, where a new appeared as soon as the old exited,
She was pure beauty, and maybe my only and my wilful addiction,
While I was soaking in this experience of charm and beauty,
She tenderly felt my hand trembling with love’s affliction,
“Here, look at these new samples of eternal beauty,”
She said this with a professional tone and demand,
They were small clusters of white charm,
Beautiful as anything beautiful can be resting peacefully in beauty’s eternal wand,
Peaceful to look at that always kindled feelings warm,
It was such a delight to witness and see,
Then she silently quoth this,
“They are called the Japanese lilies that sparkle like the pearls from the deepest sea,
They look like joys suspended on the branches of bliss,
These beautiful Japanese lilies bearing the sparkle of the pearl from the deepest sea.”
I again nodded my head with a smile,
As I looked at them closely,
They indeed were clusters of white joy hanging there with a beautiful smile,
And I said hurriedly, “certainly!”
Then I realised something strange,
They were bending downwards, as if gravity pulled them harder,
It was nothing like flowers at other shops, so it indeed was very strange,
I looked at all the flowers and then I looked at her,
And there it was, in her eyes, her beautiful face her overall grace,
That the flowers in her shop felt so inferior,
Because all Japanese lilies and every Summer flower was but a reflection of her face,
And it was difficult to tell whether they were her lovers or she was there lover,
But to me, they all shone as the brilliance in her eyes,
The rose had offered her its blush,
The lies had granted her the twinkling miracle of the night skies,
And all other flowers had rendered her eternally beautiful and lush,
And whenever they looked at her,
The flowers drooped a bit,
And maybe that is why I buy all my flowers from her,
Because like these helpless flowers I too love her every bit, and thus my love affair with her and her flowers has matured bit by bit!
And now neither the flowers nor I can quit,
So it is an affair that shall last till eternity and this is how I prefer it,
She loving the flowers, I loving her, and as soon as my memory amidst her beautiful memories is lit,
Then I am sure, like these flowers, and like me; now she too cannot quit, not even a bit!”

“Do not say a word just fly with me to the moon,

“We were nine years old when I found a penny on the ground and I gave it to her. I thought she needed luck more than I did because I felt lucky just to know her.”

― Sarah A. Bailey, The Soulmate Theory
