IS THIS A DREAM??????



It’s a bright morning………fresh and fragrant

As the cheery sunshine uncovers the dark sheets of night

A new day blooms……….spreading smiles all over

The dewdrop wakes up the rose buds from their sweet nap

The snow white rose tends to open her petals

And feel the life around her

As I gaze intently on her “soft tresses”

My thoughts turn towards you, my angel

This flower reflects your enigmatic smile

This flower portrays your true innocence

I long to tell you a thousand things

But…..as your voice graze my ear

My tongue seems tied

If only my heart was a mirror

You could see them written with my blood

As I wait endlessly for your return

Hearing your voice refreshes me as a summer shower

So, never ever think that I don’t expect to hear you

For it will make me weep.

Remember…..you vowed that “you will never let me weep”

When you say “I love you, I need you”

Again and again

Fear creeps in to my mind………….

Now you adore me as an angel

But ………when this fantasy gives way to reality

If ……I’m not fit for you…..will you leave me dear?

I shudder at that thought

It shakes my entire being

I can’t afford to lose you my dear

Oh God! Is this a dream?

Am I day-dreaming as usual?

Is this angel real?

Does he really love me?

I dart questions at myself…………………………..

If it’s not my fancy

If he actually exists……

I have only one prayer

A prayer from my deep heart

My Lord! Let his love be everlasting

Let he be mine…………..forever


The shower has gained strength

I woke up from my reverie

My snow white rose now

Smiles like an elegant princess

A little butterfly touched her petals

Making her blush

Let me sketch a message on her wings for you

Let her fly “crossing all oceans”

And come to you

Let her softly kiss your cheeks

And make you happy

Let her quench your thirst for love

And soothe your heart with new dreams

Sweet dreams yet to come……



HOPE

As I walk through these tiled steps

dragging my feet

I feel the tender gaze of an angel

My legs seem rooted to this spot

As if bound by an invisible rope

Memories gushed forth bringing tears in to my eyes

Days before I witnessed the apparition of an angel

An angel clad in snow flakes,

Stealing my heart with his very first glance

We never spoke………our eyes spoke for us

We never met………...our dreams made us close

We became one………our souls became one

But….as days sped past…..

It was time for him to leave

My heart bled……………..

He promised to come back

And take me to his world

Where we are freed from all barriers

A great vacuum filled my heart

From where he was tore away

Now an ocean lies between us

When I smile at the moon

He may be watching the rising sun

Today………as I move through this same spot

Where I first met my angel

My thoughts turn towards my unknown future

An eternity lying before us

Still…..i hope……I dream……I yearn for his return

And that hope alone helps me bear

The grieving pang of separation.
