As I see the sun drown into the horizon,
Leaving behind the tiny specs of pink in the sky,
I drink the last remains of red,
Its beauty mesmerizing me…I sigh!

A thousand thoughts enveloping my mind,
A thousand memories to cherish,
A thousand things that I wanted to tell you,
But I wish there were another thousand till I perish.

I remember the first time your voice I had heard,
It still echoes in my head.
And the time when you had said you love me,
O I can die to hear that before I am dead!

The feathery wind touches my face gently,
And it reminds me so much of you.
Your touch, your breath, your gentleness,
And of all the times I had spent with you!

I remember the moments of pain and despair,
The day you walked away,
I too wanted you to find love, my love,
So couldn’t possibly ask you to stay.

And the nights of emptiness I have spent
Trying to forget you,
Trying to believe my love didn’t exist,
Trying to believe I didn’t love you.

But today I no more fear myself, my love,
For no more shall I be,
Dust to dust and ashes to ashes…I shall go
But my love shall be with you even after me!

As I close my eyes in silence
I feel you wrap your arms around me,
And you know what, I am scared no more,
And never will I be!

I can feel your body embrace me,
Your lips sealing mine…
I can feel you breathing into me,
Unbound by space and time!

If this is the end, tomorrow shall be a better day,
This moment has at last taken my breath away!


Somewhere far away, a stray tear trickles down
Unaware of its reason of being, its identity!
Only to be lost forever…
In the oceans of eternity!
