Standing up
Is never easy
The quicksand
Is all set to devour you
And more you struggle
You end up inside it

All she begged for
Was an indication
That he knew
And desperate
Was she to see him
Again
Looking everywhere
Helplessly
She begged him
To show up
And just then
The pigeon
Born same day
She lost him
Came fluttering
By her side
Just as he would
Converse with her
Silently through
His eyes
The birdie did
Said
I am fine
My love
I am fine

How will i ever get to see you
Walk with me
Tugging me to go along
Oh where would I find you
Please let me know
Give a hint
So that I know
That you knew
How much you are loved
Nothing eases my pain
Oh! Just tell me where to look for you
I need to know that you knew
All along
How much you meant
For life you left me alone
How do i finish this bit now
Tell me
Oh my boy
Tell me you knew all along

She stayed there
Ages after ages
She flowered
And she withered
She let them build nest
And let them plucker
Some of her flowers
Attained greatness with devotees
Rest dried up
On the dusty patch
Yet she danced with glee
When it rained
Embrace those
Drenced in love
Her bark thickened
With age
Yet she couldnt stop
The dance
When the first drop of rain
Would touch her
With renewed vigor
And passion
She would swirl again
To the rain
That was her true companion
Ages after ages

Oh my child
You ran into darkness
How may i find you
My child
Do you hear me
My loved one
How much i love you
Come back
My little one
Oh please do
Please do
Let me
Look in your eyes
And tell you
Again how much
I love you
Did you know
How loved you are
My child
Why, oh why did you
Just run away
My little one!

...and they walked
One teardrop
And she said
I died here

She needed a win

He gave away his...

How tiny the world becomes
To those left behind
The belongings
Wrapped neat
Thoughts too tight
Heart filled only with love
And nothing
But to cringe
And feel the ache
Sigh!
