Readers,

"My Loneliness and I "

My loneliness and I
Often, have a conversation together
If you were here
How would it have been?
You would say this, or
You would say that
You would be thinking
I'm surprised at this
You would giggle
So much at that
If you were present
It would be either like this
If you were present
It would be like that
My loneliness and I
Often, have a conversation together
... Walking together on the path of love
We have covered so much distance!
My body and soul seem to be
Your warm and loving embrace!!

Is it the darkness of your hair
Or the night?
Is it the light of your eyes
Or the moonlight?
Is this your bangle or the moon?
Are these the stars or your shawl?
Is this the sweet fragrance of your body
Or breeze?
Is this your whisper
Or the rustling of leaves?
Immersed in thoughts
I am silently, though I am also aware
That you're not there
No where
But the heart keeps saying,
You're near somewhere
Everywhere
... You're the body
I'm the shadow
Without you
I have no morrow
Oh my lover!
Love for you is to.
I will be with you wherever you go
We were destined to meet on any path
My soul mate!
Walking together on the path of love
We have covered so much distance!
My body and soul seem to be
Your warm and loving embrace!!

We both are in a helpless plight
Solitude keeps us awake the entire night
So much is to say
Who is going to hear
How to maintain silence
With the pain we suffer?
To break all the norms of the world,
The heart cries
To destroy the barriers between us
Let's strive
Why bear all this suffering?
Let the world know
Yes,
That we are in love! We are in love!
It's a matter of life and death!
... Walking together on the path of love
We have covered so much distance!
My body and soul seem to be
Your warm and loving embrace!!
