CHOCOLATE TWILIGHT!!!

In the depths of a relationship lies the most amazing times past and at the zeniths of its hopes lies the potential of a future so astounding that it could transform the individuals involved. May be that is why we, as a generation, are so fearful of commitment! As if the profoundness of feeling wasn't enough to scare people away from the prospects of a dual existence, there is the scope of feeling "half" instead of "whole" more often than one would like, that keeps one in the shoes of a single-no-so-ready-to-mingle for a long long time.

But once all those barriers are crossed and the heart has finally taken the plunge into the hopeless fathoms of love, those rosy chocolate twilights turn vanilla pretty soon! As the lines of a popular song portray the ache of a forlorn heart, missing the sweetheart not along; my mind fantasizes about the contrasting feelings...

How it must feel to be with that special someone and not have a single worry in the world, how the cold nights must feel warm in someone's embrace, how someone's presence must give you courage to be yourself yet still be better, how someone can make you forget all your sorrows and inject you with optimism (the like of which only "John" can have when it comes to getting "Garfield" to work out!!!)...

Those twilights must be chocolaty, that setting sun must be the color of roses and carnations, those peeping stars must stir up some romance and ignite intense feelings towards one single being! However, all this can't be long lived. As much as I like to believe that after Shrek4, Fiona and Shrek finally had their "Happily Ever After"; its simply irrational to imagine that their relation was always tinged with the aphrodisiac tastes of chocolate!

But then again isn't the realization of distance a sign of intimate nostalgia? Even when the chocolate flavor is gone from the relationship and what is left behind is the blandness of vanilla, aren't there some chocolate chips still remaining behind? Just like life isn't in 'Black or White'; same way love can't be 'Chocolate or Vanilla'...it has to be choco-vanilla!

Those musical twilights have to be full of ambers of the sparks that once flew,making them Chocolate once again...
