A smile on a stranger’s face
I hold fast to the love I shared
Not just the recent tears
I have kept hidden behind my eyes
That are closer than ever before.
The morning sun rises
Thoughts are busy
Until the setting sun disappears on the horizon.
The anesthetic breeze stiring round the head
Lying with the lost sense on the operation table.
While you are in deep slumber
I have gently kissed your fore head
The stars that shine brightly in the sky
Help me watch over you
To keep you away from all harms.
I am the wind in the trees ,
the song of the birds,
The moonbeam in the midnight sky,
The glorious rainbow after the storm,
The morning dew of a freshly fallen snow.
I am a smile on a stranger’s face
A gentle touch of a warm embrace.
I let you come in
Because the knock had come
My memory goes in the blind night glass
Where you get up to the irrational logic of the flesh.
The moment of change witnesses the irony of promise
Sleepless with every light in the house
The speech encloses me comes from the mud-world.
The half-grown imagination has a message of a long sigh
Each of your rainy words were old and sick
Cannot remember the last thing you wanted.
But,
It is too late to give up these words.
I am compelled to deliver you
All the unkind words faithfully
The naked message on your face is alive
Leaving nothing out.
