A Journey To The Other End

Published Jul 11, 2021

"There is no other way " the thoughts are screaming in his ear. The empty boat with an oar is like dancing in the river.

The lake turns red , By staring into the eyes of the evening sky.

Like a dream ,a red house on the other end of the river, calling him ever since.

Though scattered like these yellow leaves, memories about the house are still green.

Hidden inside those walls are the moments from his past which he thinks is the only way to know.

He jumped into the boat and started rowing and rooting for the house , A house that hold all the answers, those he seek and those he doesn't.

It is happening; Years of attempts to reach this house always ended in vain. At last ; now is the time , to find all the answers.

The lake, is quiet and calm which is unusual and scary too, cause it is never like this before. 

The house is farther than it seems and the hands are already started struggling to row.

But it is not the Hands or Boat that is moving him, it is his strong will which is unstoppable.

A loud Thud , disturbed the distracted brain , It is Here ! A thousands of memories started flowing inside and it is almost impossible to see what they are and what it means.

The rusty mail box, old green gate and a red bicycle, the swings , started pelting the memories. But they are still confusing , The only thing the heart says is “ I am here before”.. It is unusual , cause  in contrast ,The memories about the house are more intimate ,they say “ You are not only here , you lived here ” !!

The main door is already open and suddenly the Old house is alive, with lights on , kitchen is clean and stove is on, like some one is living.

The calendar says 1992 oct 13 , its birthday, “my birthday”, The  heart screamed ,every detail in the house is exactly like on the day of his 8th birthday.

"It is my house " :

The house I left 20 yrs ago , and why the house is exactly like before? why it shows the memories of my 8th birthday ? what is happening ?

May be …May be because it is the last birthday I spent with my mom ,months before, that terrible accident took her away from me.. The heart wants to see her now.. Is it possible?

The clock show 11:59 pm.. mom and dad brought me the cake to my room that day…

It is happening ,there she is, mom and my dad too , they are happy, proud and Beautiful just like 20 yrs ago.

She is smiling , my mom, I missed her ever since… the heart wants to talk to her , to say how much it missed her and say I Love You Mom ,

I pushed the door and entered my room With Joy.. But suddenly, the room Turned dark, I cant feel my leg and cant stand too. I cant see anything and  cant move too, Just laid waste on the floor and it is….

“ Collin Costner a citizen of Pennsylvania, met with an accident 6 yrs ago and on life support till date ,left the world peacefully this morning ,after his family got the judicial permit  for the euthanasia. also known as mercy killing.”
