By the Lake

BY THE LAKE I stop by the lake today In solitude, listening to my inner voice Questioning my heart, searching An answer to the riddles of love! The lake is unfathomable I pick up a stone, throw it away into the lake I realized, you are not a stone throw away You are thousands and thousands miles away! By the lake I listen to the whisper of the wind As if wheezing a thousand murmuring Murmuring of uncertainties, adventures of love! As I left the lake Alfred Lord Tennysons’ reverberated 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all’
