'Twas a night, quite chill and merry
The feisty dinner has ended early
I sat at a corner thinking what or who?
I contemplated until I had a clue
Writing this dedication is what I desire to do
I wrote and finished this poem just in one night
And though you're not with me tonight
As if you were never out of my sight!
I can manage my emotions no more, I'm caught in a cloud of reverie
I penned this rhyme and offer it to 'thee'
Here it is with a bit of a love story...
...My heart skipped a beat
When I saw the lights were still lit
Your image surfaced on my mind so swiftly
I was surprised at this night of duty
Your presence just makes me so happy
Even just your portrait makes me shiver in ecstasy
I was so ready to see you around
Thought the missing part of me, I have finally found!
The main door was ajar
I could feel your presence from afar
But when I stride closer and closer
And my hands began to quiver
All my hopes were on the verge of doom
Disenchanted, this cold night was even more shrouded in gloom
For the room was silent, the air was still
Your presence I couldn't feel
The door of the place was tightly locked, I could not open
Was this night a bad omen?
Oh! I must be cloaked in a deceiving trance
I could not see "us" in the future in a glance
Now I know it was just a sheer delusion that you were here
Your soothing voice I couldn't hear
Your shadow I could not even see
Where in this barren land could you possibly be?
Missed the days when we were just split by a thin strand of a line
Remembered your eyes, how they always meet mine!
Walking passed by your place was just perfectly fine!
Your thoughts are always on my mind, near or far
Why is that admitting that you're not here was so painfully hard?
Like a sharp thorn of a rose flower
Leaving a deep scar on my soul forever!!!
Oh I missed you like everyday
Like missing you insane
This feeling, should I be blamed?
I wish I could see you, hold you and talk to you
But on these festive days, you're so far away.....
