Poem


I won't say the glance at her made me feel
it's 'love at first sight'; but something I must
say, 'twas strange feeling which I couldn't conceal,
felt knowing her for long, whom I can trust.

Don't know, out of so many persons in
that hall, why I looked at her and within
few moments why I had that true feeling.

But, that few glances made me feel surreal;
thought subsequently surely 'twas not lust;
Luckily met again, yes, a big deal.
We spoke, many trivial things discussed.

And yet, forgot to ask her will she mind
if we meet once more, engrossed in speaking;
Don't know how to meet, why life so unkind?
