A Humble Note

I had wanted to start writing one hour earlier or maybe two hours earlier than this hour. 

But I didn't. 

These minor delays of mine have started taking the shape of an unavoidable habit. 

Since my mind is a wanderer, it is only natural for my thoughts to keep wandering. 

The only problem is; the distance keeps widening between my thoughts and my writing. 

At times I am asked, why am I taking so much time to write something new?

The question sounds so personal and heavy with expectations too. 

But I don't have a specific answer to that. 

At times I ask myself, do my words become my thoughts or my thoughts become my words?

Once again I don't have a specific answer to that. 

Does that mean that I have stopped seeking answers to questions?

These questions are sometimes asked by my friends, well-wishers, readers (very few), fans (invisible or just my hallucination), admirers (numbers keep thinning) and strangers (they seem to be the ones who keep high expectations).

Honestly speaking... I miss my writing too. 

I don't write till I feel like writing. 

I don't read till I feel like reading. 

The numbers of books keep swelling in my library. 

The stock of my stationary keeps mounting. 

But when will I write next and what am I writing next seem like permanent questions. 

Someday I might seriously try seeking answers or answering the many questions of others. 

Till then, on a humble note... I shall take your leave till I write to you next.
