Love Letter of a Network Engineer



               Do you remember the days when I used to ping you from global servers, those long nights when there was no one but you and me waiting for that right time. How can you forget those moments when we used to talk privately and made sure that no one from global table sees us? How can you forget our dating nights when I used to come to meet you through the hallowed corridors of Cyclades servers and with nothing but just your name?
               Now as I see through the windows of my den, I just feel what happened to all our redundancy plans that could prevent us from this separation. Trying to least connect myself or weighing myself couldn’t help us from this massacre. I never imagined in my thoughts that with all the firewall policies that our relation had, someone from public would come and beseech your thoughts.
               I still remember the days when our relationship was new and we were trying to know each other. It used to take me so much time in getting to know your preferences, nodes and pools and how you connect with others in a chassis but still I didn’t lose my heart and learned everything about you. All those Autonomous numbers that I used to trace to come and meet you were not easy to tackle, but still I kept my calm and came to ping you.              
               What was my mistake that I thought a better future for us? That I needed some shared cells to see a better future for us so that I can connect with others and still ping you. You never understood my sorrows but created a loop in our beautiful relationship that how rapidly we span some trees, this is not going to be over.
               In my thoughts, I still ping you and will always do in my thoughts however my small my Time to live be!
