I have seen your being
which you deny
There are times when
you just decide to breathe
and the air around
becomes fragrant
Time just stops to feel
and the wind carries your
being all towards me
yet you deny your being
I am still here in your alley
for nowhere else I can
find that breeze
that has touched you
and comes towards me
bringing with it
a new spring
that has alluded me
all these years
in my journeys
devoid of you
at times in stars of north
at others in starts of south
All that I had in my journey's
were season of barren trees
where all the leaves had
already withered and
trees waited for a cold
lonely winter
and by the time winter
was to get over
I would have travelled yet again
far where the spring
was still far far away
I saw the sakura once
and it was a big surprise
as it was still autumn there
and then I realized
cherry blossom
came because of you
as you brought the breeze
and color to that garden
making it alive yet again
in that autumn
Beloved why then you
stay away and let
these gardens wither
these flowers wait
and my heart suffer
Come for now its time
for you to save this garden
else the world would say
there is no garden,
just specs of sand
scattered here and there
Beloved, why you deny
your existance to yourself
show me your eyes
and do not close them
I need to be deep
in that ocean there
forever, to live
and then who cares
if there is a heaven
cause for me this spring
will never end
Beloved, come here
and call me in you
in those arms of yours
holding me with
your tenderness
by your hands
that held me once
to give me a glimpse
of that eternal spring
only to let me go
into another autumn
into another winter
which you deny
There are times when
you just decide to breathe
and the air around
becomes fragrant
Time just stops to feel
and the wind carries your
being all towards me
yet you deny your being
I am still here in your alley
for nowhere else I can
find that breeze
that has touched you
and comes towards me
bringing with it
