I saw you there, the first time,
Where you didn't give me a smile;
You seemed, perhaps, not in fine lime,
With a moody face you sighed away.

In Heaven, the future was written,
And the scroll was passed;
With my past just badly beaten,
Came you along life's narrow lane.

Then I started my journey with you,
Never intending a closeness of hearts,
Started rubbing the past, and scripting new;
Not purposefully, evolved a likeness in mind.

Time before us seemed fleet...
Lending mem'ries to pile, and reasons to smile.
Gone, the days, how blissful and sweet..?
Lived in a paradise with divine gay.

Every chat had a heavenly bliss,
And clean and joyful harmony;
Filled me with the thrill of a silent kiss,
Until Time finally gypped.

Running pen with eyes red and wet,
Feeling lonely again as earlier was,
Before you like an Angel met,
And lit for me, the Candle of Hope.

Was it a sprout for future dear,
Or simply a cross road in this walk of life ?
re-beginning of events to cheer,
Is something I wish, tho' foolish it seems.

We talked, and teased, and laughed a lot,
Was it mere friendship or something beyond ?
The future and present is all I've got,
Yet the near past with you, still counts.

Like a beautiful dream that dies at dawn,
Came all the cheerful moments we shared,
Into life's sinking vessel....but now seems gone;
Gone, all gone, gone with the wind...!!!
