Down the Memory Lane
Rambling down the memory lane
I remember the day
When you made your first espy
and made me believe
you are the one for me
your care and tutelage
sheathed me from umpteen stings
and got me over the hot springs.
I even cherish the moment
Whilst walking on the street
when lips moved on, in their motion
leaving others shocked
and looking for someone beside me
when everyone deduced me alone
the truth was shared between you and me.
I still mesmerise the time
when all my dreams crushed
and hopes swayed away
still I smiled to mark the nerve
and the darkening night
augmented the pace of tears
and that of your wiping feat too.
I could enchant the aura
and memorize the shadowy icon
whom you were overly green eyed
cause still being clandenstine.
And today again
while walking on the same lanes
I'm lost in the cloud
when I turned around
to look for the one
chatting, giggling, sharing, glowering,
walking together all these years
appears had vanished.
Why today I'm down with the feeling
It was just a false coloring
all the way I was single handed
or I had lost someone very dear
and turned out to be a lonely soul again.
