Weight of the moment....

How insignificant is a drop when compared to an ocean...
How negligible is human when compared to life...
How insignificant is my fate, when compared to time's sweeping motion...
how negligible are 5 minutes....as compared to my life...

Or so i thought...

'Cos that fateful day, unwritten laws of nature were bent,
When you held my head in your palms...
thrust me into your bosom..
Lights dimmed...the room vanished...
into a different world i was sent
A world where every breath carried your scent,
Where everything felt like your skin...
Where you were with me....where ever I went...

My mind was wrung out...out of emotions and pain...I was spent
I felt...like the banyan tree that once stood erect yonder....
When it gave vent to its pain...its burden
And finally bowed down after numberless years...
When my head was burried in you...
And when all the pain was exorcised out of my being

The moment lasted for 5 minutes...
Immortalised by music made in heaven....
Then I had to go....
I tried.....tugged so hard that I lost half my heart....It lies with you now...

The candle of life burns in me
But fate decree that it should flicker...
When I sit back and reflect
The enthralling beauty of the moment....the wrenching pain in my heart...
So contrasting....so fathomless in depth.....
That I black out...my imagination too frail to view such ....

The weight of 5 minutes....what it gave....
what I lost....is beyond mortal comprehension....
I live...to get that one moment back...
To get my sanity back....
To get....an eternity of my life....back
Help me....
