My BestFriend’s Life

This is my best friend’s life. She was the one, only one for me. We were born together, raised together. I did whatever she asked. She started influencing me so much that She became Me and I became her.

One day, something went wrong. A lucky star was watching over us but then it’s done a bunk. Our desires, hopes, likes started separating from each other. My love her lust, my needs her greed, my strength her shortcuts. She wanted me to be her puppet, so became I. She made me lie. I betrayed, took drastic actions and devilish decisions. She was getting on my nerves slowly and slowly.

And one day she asked me to kick my Love out of my life. Then only I dared to argue her and to change my plight. I asked her not to keep her hopes too high.

She said “He is no more suitable for you”

I asked her “Why”

“Not a penny more out of penny less.. Never pass a good thing darling, when you see it. You must move forward” Was her reply.

I said that sort of thinking can get you into the mess. It’s high time that you should just Buzz off. That was the first time I showed up courage and took my stand. By now, I realized that might never make right. I was watching her turning cloudy and even little thunderous. Tears welled up in my eyes.

She was standing right in front of me and suddenly started disappearing like the dew of early morning. It was an hour of reflection when we lost our affection. She was gone forever. No more I could listen to her, no more she was my shadow.

Yes, She was nobody else but My Inner Soul, My Devil Soul.

Hello, now I have ads running on my website. It’s a nice way to keep my travel journey going on, to be more fashionable next time & to run my website. I am going to need your support always.

  2. That is a magical narration, Falak, of struggles and eventual victory over your inner demons. It is a misnomer to call it ‘inner soul’, as the soul is unchanging and eternal even as we pass through our transient existence here.

  11. There’s a lot of depth to your writing. I like it how you led us up the garden path with this one then twisted the tale at the end. I’m glad you managed to defeat whatever part of yourself was holding you back from a relationship

  16. Wow, mind-blown! Beautifully expressed, exquisite piece of writing. I recognize writing talent when I see it, and you’ve definitely got it! 😊😊

  17. It seems English isn’t your first language and that makes the phrasing a tad different and so very refreshing. The poetry in your writing makes this piece all the more beautiful.
    So glad you got rid of that nasty demon…no need for friends like that 🙂

    1. Yes, In India English is the second official language but still not prevalent in all the States here and Hindi is our native as well as first language. Thanks for your comment. Hope to see you around in future.

  21. We don’t know what we are capable of until we try to master it, it’s the art of mastery that we use to defeat the darkness in us! It would be cool to have a feedback on mine too. Thank you, your mind is a rainbow

  24. I came across this post because you had liked a comment I had made on another post, quite a while ago, so I wanted to see what your blog is about… I was blown away with both your writing and the message!

    You handled the message very delicately and in a very believable way! Kudos! Like you said in one of the comments, not many people are able to recognize or conquer their inner demons! Bravo!

    I decided to follow you to see other gems! I’m very pleased that you decided to follow me in return! Thank you!

    Peace, Tamara

    1. Bonjour Bernard
      Ravi de vous rencontrer
      je vous remercie pour le merveilleux poème et fleurs
      Je traduis le poème en anglais afin que mes autres collègues blogueurs peuvent le lire aussi

      Translation of the poem sent above by Bernard:
      good morning or good evening
      That day the two evening stars
      Will fall from the sky
      One is filled with wisdom
      The other will be responsible for tenderness
      Far away in the sky shines, of our friendship pact
      I wish you a wonderful day or evening
      Like the way I sing a melody, that my heart
      Kisses, Bernard

  26. I knew it was you the whole time:)

    For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. 19 For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. 20 Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me.

    21 I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. 22 For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. 23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. 24 O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? 25 I thank God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!

    So then, with the mind I myself serve the law of God, but with the flesh the law of sin.

    1. You explained it so well and now may be we know your age as well.. Correct me if I am not? And my friend I would love to tell you that I wrote this thing many years back when I was in my graduation.. Few days back I got it in my old diary.. In my blog you will find a lot of depressing as well as inspiring writeup’s but they all are simply fiction except few

  29. Thank you for ‘liking’ one of my responses. This post can be likened to the Taoism and Confucianism concept of Yin and Yang, that is, that every good/positive element has a touch of the dark side and every bad/negative element has a bit of good in it. With that in mind, could it be said that even someone like Mother Teresa had a touch of the dark side in her? May the force be with you! Lol!

  30. Ah, yes. I nice twist of a story. In the beginning, I truly believed this was a tale of friendship gone bad. The shadow side of ourselves is a tricky thing to imagine/fight/write about. Good job!

  32. What a beautiful way to portray the struggle of the soul. I have gone through a very similar story more than once. I believe these banished devils can come back. If they cannot beat us when we’re strong, their game is to weary and weaken us, hoping they can take us over in the end.

  37. The inner evil that lives inside each of us and how we have to overcome it before it takes over the essence of our being…nice write-up, I enjoyed every bit of it.

  38. Yeah.she is it devil soul n inner soul by she is defeated d chess of love n as defeating u will be winner forever coz it heart has a lot of feelings of love.

  44. I liked the way you kept her identity concealed till the end and also that it talked about how good/bad both resides in everyone. But it’s the choices you make that determines the kind of person you’d be, good or bad?☺ Utterly beautiful☺

  47. One fifth in, I knew it was you being referred to. Well you did a great job, your skill is improving. Before you get nasty on me (as usual) you were always outstanding. There, feel better knucklehead? Now what’s next, will you fight with me today, better not.
    But there is a lot here which you have brought forth from this subject matter. Ha

      1. First; You inspired a smile (ha) and the thought did cross my mind, yes, but not defined yet.
        Lastly; that pretty girl in the photo, that surely cannot be you (here I am trying to get your attention now (ha).
        Lol.
        Hey I might go back to the romantic love article.
        See you soon, at any rate.

          1. So, you self deprecate, huh! Well (please don’t mind me saying…) that is the practice of a human’s weights and measures; A Duality. An attempt to create a balance, a fail safe device which aids us to come in under the radar. Actually a device employed by the Obscurity Seeker among us. One who is not comfortable with praise, attention.
            By now you should know that I’m fond of your friendship so don’t get crazy on me as is your wont (inclination) to debate and contradict me. I don’t mind, really our battles.
            You made fun of me when I said something to the effect of being a Guru in India (“What will you teach”; meaning I had nothing to teach, I understand you mischievous girl). But any way if you have a interest in reading about the two kinds of people in the world (Obscurity Seeker and Celebrity Seeker) just dig through my old blogs, the blogs of this dude who has nothing to say (teach).
            Bless you.

          2. Haha.. it’s human nature to say opposite of what we mean. . And I am really funny sometimes, so dont ever mind If I make stupid PJs (poor jokes). And next thing, I love to have conversation with you.. I enjoy our talks and okays one day I’ll go through your old posts.. guess the bird is nearby…

          3. Awesome response. You are right in this (and many other things, can’t give you too much credit, your head will explode). Yes we do say, often the opposite of what we feel. Wow, you are a smart little one. Huh….
            Where will I hide, huh

  60. I can’t make my mind up whether this is actually a best friend or the changes gone through yourself. It reminds me of my old ‘friend’ she used to emotionally abuse me ,call me names , push me downstairs. I thought this was normal until a couple of years later until I told her I didn’t want to be friends anymore and she stalked my facebook profile leaving nasty comments.
    Very good post

          2. When you said you telling me LOL, u sounded like you are very experienced in this respect of mine post.. Would love to hear your side of story in short or may be in post some day

          3. To answer your question about me relating to your earlier post. I must refer to the bible when it says that what I’m supposed to do is that I do not do, but that which I’m not supposed to do is that which I do. Early on in my life I stayed in trouble and although today I have my own business I still fight with my past. The voices in our head tells us some time to do bad and good things. We must choose between the two. I choose to do good but it wasn’t always like that. But you get my meaning if not just let me know.

          4. Oh the Bible reference is just so perfect.. We all human beings are a bag of mistakes.. we do what we are not supposed to do. And yes I am still firm on my point we must fight the Battle within our self..

  83. The conversation with the other side of you is a constant battle. Whoever wins controls you. It is a challenge to ensure the right side wins.
    Nicely written.

Hopefully, it will get solved by that way. Still I have contacted WordPress about it but the guys have some meet and are busy.
