Finding love...
I thought I had lost it all, the evening when the Amaretto swirled in the glass
the eyes roved over the moles and made the lips quiver....
the words half spoken and hanging in the chill air separating us
a streak of infinite joy painting the expanse and rumors doing marry-go-round
the gaze that made heart trot and the world acquired a new shade of red
when the packed bags lay obiediently in the dismal corner
the shards of broken dreams pinched the eyes
uncertain steps lingered at the doorway and a crooked smile settled on his lips
trying to fight back the flush of emotions, through the mist of tears he held on to my face
with buds of love hanging by a thread, the baggage weighed heavy
and the aircarft engines roared tore something within
days went past, upheavels marked the scape of life
love with a dubious veil sat in the lonely corner
the strength , the verdure , the joy came in jolts
but then fell nights of longing, of nothing to hold on to
on the hinges of clout, I fought now
the promise honoured, the smile bequeathed
the wait answered for the journey yet to begin
the moments sparkled, for today I sit recount my journey of love...
