The day I left my college

I am starting with the day i left my college.. giving that memory an eternal life through words..

It was April 25th, 2012.

I woke up with a wailing heart. I had slept away my last night at my college hostel. The four of us, who stayed back in the nearly empty hostel, had slept on a single bed. I had woken up and gone through the daily chores as if in a trance. I was to leave my dearest place on earth at 6.30 am with Navaneeth to a place what seemed like a hell-hole ( New job induction program the day after graduation )

I had kissed my best friends good bye, with a heart about to break any moment and walked through the familiar path to the gate - the way out. I remember waiting for my friend to arrive, and looking around the blocks, where i had spent my best four years, thinking back along those times, every memory flashing through my mind with perfect clarity. I hadn't realized that my eyes were brimming with tears until it overflowed. What I didn't expect was, feeling the crushing weight of loss and longing. It was as if something had snapped in me. The carefully set up control broke like a twig and i was falling into pieces, losing track of the surroundings. The guard, someone on the road, had all tried to console me. But I didn't hear a thing. I had tried in vain to curb the unstoppable stream of tears...

Then after crying for God knows how long, there was calm. No, that's too wrong a word. 
It was void. I was left with a hole that couldn't be filled.
