About Her

My photo
India
Little Moments Of Bliss is a silhouette of a feeling that resides in my heart. A software engineer by degree, a writer at heart, and a teacher by profession, I'm all that I never thought I would be. Pretty pictures,a poem that blatantly refuses to rhyme, a text from a deranged friend, a sudden gesture of love, its these little things in life, that matter and sprinkle bliss. Grace the couch and share a cuppa!

The Forbidden Fruit [55Fiction #2]



He stumbles in, every friday, makes passionate love to me, lusts my body, and then leaves his money staring at my bare essence.

Love they say, is a happy emotion, takes you high on beatitude. Supreme Blessedness.

Just the sight of him sets my heart racing inside my chest. Then why is my love illegitimate ?

  1. Probably because she loves him, he loves her not. He comes only for her body, it's his guilty pleasure, and because she loves him secretly, she gives him the best.

    Nice post.

    Cheers,
    Blasphemous Aesthete

      She does give him the best. Merely for that little hint of hope that he might love her back someday.

      Thank You :)

  8. Just saw this on IndiBlogger. WOW. I wish I could write even half as good as this.
    This is sharp and made me think.
    I don't think her love is "illegitimate" .. She can love whomever she wants yeah? And we should understand that people have their own reasons for doing what they do.
    And a prostitute too,in the end, is a lady, a human being.
    Awesomeness this is!

    2. Ah. Foot is still not fine. Can't really walk properly.

      Le sigh.

  12. Crisp and forceful. It is termed illegitimate coz it does not follow the norms set by the society.

  19. You've written this with so much depth that I read it once, I realize that I've nt understood the whole thing and then I read it again and again until I realized that I can never reach to the bottom.
    If it's love, it can never be illegitimate.
    Haven't you given the proof to his love for her in these lines itself? It's just that he/we being the social being don't see/accept that as love.
