Delhi..bombay..delhi

Delhi..Bombay..Mumbai..Dilli..i think I will always run around in circles between these two..Ive lived in Delhi for 18 years and now am back..for good I hope. But Bombay has made me what I am now. 5 years in the city..it will always hold that special place..a lot
of firsts the city has given me..and u never forget your firsts do u..however embarrassing? On the Contrary..more embarrassing the better..:)

Somehow I am always incomplete..a part of me is missing..i am always longing. In Delhi i want the beach, the crowd..d 'itna paisa meh itna ich milenga', Marine drive, d responsibility of living alone..in Bombay i want the history..the roads..d rustic tenor..d not getting up from razai in winter mornings..d security of home.

And I am so tired of Bombay vs. Delhi. I love u both! each is great in its own right..I will always love u..Delhi is the very essence of me..beginning from kohl rimmed eyes..my straight f

orward demeanor..my love for cotton and winter..bombay taught me how to survive..losing friendship..losing my home..losing hope..but still holding on!

Leaving a city is bitter-sweet always..u will always crave for home..but in a tiny corner of your heart the city lives on. Break-ups are similar..u will always miss the moments u shared..but u continue to where your life is beckoning. Either cases don't present us with options eh?

I have spent a good amount of time as a hosteler loving this song..now back home..the song retains its importance:

Kehne ko saath apne ek duniya chalti hai..par chupke is dil meh tanhayee palti hai

Bas yaad saath hai..teri yaad saath hai
