As always, I haven't written quite often here, but, I have always been a part of my blog! I have always believed, and practiced, in writing on topics that are close to me, my world; and my blog is a window in between the outer world and the world that is mine.
Since a few days, there has been an urge, in me, to find an exemplary portrayal of a girl, being in love.
It's been quite a long time, since, I have moved on from topics dealing with affection and love, and moved to much broader things dealing with surrealism, existentialism & epic- poetry. But a few days back, precisely on Friday, I heard a song, that shook me from my depth and urged me finding love- epic love!!! Not the ones having link-ups and breakups, not the ones dealing with live-in relationships, not the ones dealing with pleasures, not the ones having meaningless feelings, not the usual kisses and hugs or public display of affection, not the ones having 'I love you', not even the ones who get married; but something splendid, having grandeur, one that sets a benchmark in one's life, something that is marked in your life, something that lasts forever, most importantly, an epic- a larger than life love, an unrequited love. Love that lasts forever, is not the one that sees its destination, marriage, but is the one that is even beyond life- an unrequited love. By unrequited, I intend to specify not only, the one that is not exactly reciprocated, but also, that doesn't end with life or see the day of light- marriage. By marriage, I mean union.
Love doesn't have any end, but it has a beginning. It can't be created nor be destroyed. It doesn't follow any principles. The only thing that it follows is love itself!!
It might seem that my ideas/thoughts are imaginary, out of world or unrealistic, which could either be seen in novels or large canvassed movies!! But, I do have a freedom of expression, and expressing something without any limitations/boundaries, is one of the prerequisites of one's existence.
The song, which I was writing about, is from one of the upcoming movies. The music, words and the vocals are a perfect blend of romance and enmity of love. It's 'Laal Ishq' from 'Ram Leela' movie. While hearing it, I was into my deep consciousness, searching for answers and its questions,searching for a quintessential portrayal of a girl- with which one could have an epic- love.
Translating a few lines, the song is expressed as-
"This red love, this remorse of love, this scar of love, this enmity of love.. I had such an animosity with you, I haven't been myself since then... My name is love, your name is love, my name, your name, it's love...
This red love, this remorse of love, this scar of love, this enmity of love...
Should I change my name, or else I hide your name, or hiding all memories behind, should I become a recluse?
There should be only one work, love, for me, my work be love, just love be my work,
my name is love, your name is love, my name, your name, love...
I wish to clinch this dark night, hold this cold moon, I wish to change this disparity amidst day and night..
I had such an animosity with you, I haven't been myself since then.... "
Translation might slip one from the original dialects, it's the feel of the song that still remains..
Searching an answer, what would be the quintessential portrayal of love- the girl, one should desire, one should love, one should dilute one's passion with, one should share one's life with and most importantly, one should share oneself with?
The one name that comes to my mind, is Juliet. She is the ultimate muse of an artist, the perfect blend of brilliance and gestures; charm and beauty; sensuousness and purity& imagination and expression.
Fermina Daza, from Love in the time of Cholera, assures me of everlasting and unchangeable love. Lolita is definitely the nymph one would desire to have an unadulterated love with. Anny, from Nausea, brings a charm to me, where I would love to know her more, be with her more, share with her more, but still, would love to be loved by her. In Indian Literature, one name that comes to my mind, which is there since I attained adolescence, and has been there, and would still remain till the end of my life-long romance, is Paro 'Parvati' from the novel 'Devdas'. She is a truly cultured, well-mannered girl, having a limited sharing of expressions but still clinching one's attention, being novice at heart but still loving up to the brim, young but everlasting. Jane from 'Pride & Prejudice' would be an ideal from the island, as far as mannerisms are considered. She is young, beautiful, expressing, charming and truly mannered.
Amongst them, which one is mine?? All are mine, but still, at the same time, no one is mine. As a reader, I have been with them, they have been itched in my memories, but still, they are distant. I desire my muse. I am passionate about the quintessential portrayal of romance. I would love to create such a character, with which I would express an epic love, everlasting and never ending love. I want to write something, where there is a portrayal of love-the one which I dream of, consisting only my characters, my world, my ideas, my thoughts, my expressions and most importantly, my emotions.
And the one, with which, my muse would be in love with- would definitely be me!!!!!
