You

I still can't seem to let go off my mind your first smile. Entering the room, I saw many faces and still realized only one. In your eyes was the language I wanted to communicate through and in your voice I found the music that made me dance. Business was what brought me there and you were who kept me there. If love was the subject, I am sure I wanted to understand it through you. For the first time ever, I didn't have to make an effort; all the fabrics of my existence were in harmony with the vibration of your presence. I looked upon at everyone but you, for I was nervous. Not so, because I was afraid, but because all this had come to this single point in time when we were sharing the same space, breathing the same air, feeling each others' presence, knowing we existed and have found each other. My quest was brought to an end and I instantly knew it was you.

If life was poem, you were my muse; in moments of loneliness, you were my wait; in sadness, you were my tears; in nervousness, you were my trembling; in happiness, you were my smile. Yes, I wore you even before I knew you for before I knew you I knew no life. You were all over me and today I have just reached a stage where I discovered this. I know, I am never going to lose you as I know I am never going to get you...

Hope

I waited for rains
standing in the river
arms stretched, fingers so tight,
I saw it coming
in the Jungle I was,
yet I was not wet,
the drops had failed me,
sun-soaked I stood,
watching the woods
dancing in the rain,
the leaves so smug,
and flowers so vain,
I closed my eyes and smiled,
"forgive them god
for they are so high,
it rains in the jungle,
with river so dry,
with clouds fading soon
and drops getting thinner,
it is river they'll come to,
their hapless stand-by"
my prayers are answered, I hope,
I stand still,
my fingers getting loose,
despair beckons loud,
but hope i choose,
I am dry in the river,
and wet under sun,
trembling it reminds,
the wait has just begun!
