Strange Ordeal
Someone asked me my address....
And I mentioned your heart...
He laughed, “Oh,My goodness...
Say the truth, jokes apart...!“
But you know, I never lie...
My truth twinkles in my eyes clearly...
But may be, I am reticent & shy...
That hides the fountain of honesty...!
And in another instance, another fellow...
Enquired where I wanted to holiday...
I said your dream is where I want to go...
And he was blunt when he shrugged me away....!
No one believes that my heartbeat...
Flows from the realms of your heart....
I see the vision of my end in it....
I see in it the memory of my start....!
The peculiar people in my office...
And my boss in particular....
Say I am insane...much at ease....
Or,probably, a tad more jocular....!
But you must believe me any way....
The ordeal that I pass through...
Its all because you are away....
And I really love you...!
