WITHIN[15/09/2007]

I miss you and find
Something missing within myself
Missing that heartbeat
That once waltzed with yours

That night on the terrace
To the strains of-“ Hmm…hmm hmm hmm…”

The night was cold
And you burst upon me
Like the twinkling star that you are

“ I got something for you.”
And you disappeared much to my astonishment.

And arrived ten minutes later
With a smile.

Music brought us together.

Tonight is warm
Like sweet memories
Remember the puppy that you wanted to bring home?

Or for that matter the ballad we sang in freezing cold?
“ Sometimes I think of you as if you have been made for me…”

Or for that matter the ballad we sang on another freezing night!
“ You, take me anywhere without telling me…”

Music got us together.

The night is silent
Holding a secret within its heart
You say nothing and yet
I understand you.

And I understand myself.

You are the cleanest mirror I have ever looked into.
And I saw the beauty within the beast.

How I wish I could have been that mirror to you too!!!
How I wish !

I was impure.
Hence you could not see yourself.

You were always right.
And I have always been the late bloomer

A dweller of nostalgia
A traveler of dreams
An absentee of now.
