Deep and Dark
Deep and Dark
My hankering for you, my longing for you,
my desire for you
do not allow my thirsty eyes to close the lid.
My aspiration for you, my delight for you,
my earnest zeal for you
always occupy my mind.
But how do you feel?
I am in dark still.
To listen to your voice, to respond to your call
to reciprocate your say
my eager ears are alert.
My emotion for you, my feelings for you,
my passion for you
ooze from the core of my heart.
But how do you feel?
I am in dark still.
My tension for you, my stress for you
my worries for you
do not give rest to my brain.
To know your mind, to pierce through your heart
to perceive your urge
my pulse beats are always in strain.
But how do you feel?
I am in dark still.
My grief for you, my sorrow for you,
my pain for you
opt for your soft gentle touch.
Just one glance, a little smile,
Just a simple ‘Hi’!
I won’t expect much.
But how do you feel?
I am in dark still.
My love for you
analyzed by my brain,
felt in my heart,
and defined in my mind
is released through my soul.
I could not control.
But how do you feel?
I am in dark still.
Neither brain, nor mind
neither heart nor soul
can't have any explanation.
You are beyond my guess
My brain, heart, mind
or soul can’t express.
But how do you feel?
I am in dark still.
