It has been an eternity since i last thought of you..
braced for a life removed from your presence,
braced for a future, devoid of life's essence...
the pragmatic mind was convinced in letting you die,
an obdurate heart furtively urged,to stop living a lie...
the feral war of heart and mind followed all these years,
and only now did i find,
you mirrored in my closeted tears...
Today on your birthday,
i lift open the fragile gates of my mind,
and the magical stream of thoughts of yore,
end the drought in every little channel they find...
the tinkling of your laughter and your little whispers,
echo in me again,
and my singed heart is cooled,
as if by sweet november rain...
how i long again to catch,
one last glimpse of you...
before my time here is done,
and i sleep forever saying-love you,i do.
