YOU

In the crowded streets of my imagination,
I saw an angel standing all by herself;
Her smile and her face had lit up the place
And I wished she would be there till the end.

She smiled back at me from the distant corner
Her eyes speaking to me in the language of silence;
I knew this girl from long before
But it’s now her eyes met mine.

I was lonely before but now I was scared;
Scared to lose her in the crowd ,
Scared to let her go,
Lest I have to breathe alone again.

I saw her face and I saw her eyes
She was prettier than anyone I had seen in my life.
I knew I had loved her
But today I needed to say.

I stood there watching, wondering what to do
Lost in thought and lost in time.
Like a dream it was then
But infront of my very eyes.

And two years have passed now
And I am standing alone still.
Like the clouds in a windless sky,
And with a heart that still feels.

I knew she loved me, I had seen it in her eyes
And felt it in her touch.
And then also I had known ,
She wouldn’t be mine.

She was a friend, my very best friend
And today I wonder whether she would smile,
If I ever came across her.
On the same street, where we met in the evening light.

Today I sit alone and think about the moments we ‘d spent
Sitting by each other holding hands on the sands;
Talking our hearts out and smiling at each other.
Our little troubles and our big fights.

Its all there with me, your every memory,
Its just You who is missing today.
Its so hard sometimes to face the truth,
Cause I know I am never going to be with you again.

Instead of waiting for the right time its better (and i guess wiser) to make the present perfect for urself, make it urs. Memories are good and sweet but they hold u back. They stop you from unleashing ur potentials. (forget angels and start going after nymphs ;-) he he he)

thanks for the beautiful and valuable insight dude
ya memories do hold us back coz i think there is a certain addictiveness to it...its sweet or good or maybe painful at times....but its there..with us and in us.
