Because I Believe by Rohit Saha
I had heard about this Island before.
It’s not yet monsoon. The sea level is still low. The island is breathing now.
It’s green and the centre with mountains covering the whole place. If the day has one color. It is this. The blue immersion of horizons. But. I heard stories of the sky changing color when they fly past.
I was looking for them, but we never met. I felt as if they have been here since the very beginning. I experienced things which I cannot explain. My curiosity kept growing stronger as my search continues.
Because,
I believe.
