Longing

You were so strong headed

I thought you will never leave my side

You were so sweet hearted

I thought you will kill me by sweetness

One sudden day my world was upside down

I found myself drowning in despair

It was so hard to come out and survive in that dark

Yet I found a ray of light in my love for you

I clung to it and swam across the sorrows but I know

What is seen is not all true, there’s truth hiding behind curtain

Yet I see some hope and old love in those eyes of yours

I find myself longing for you yet again and again

But I know everything has changed to the core.
