I SEE YOU STILL…

As I walked by those pathways

Down the hill, alone this time

Pathways, which were once cherished

With cold breezes, smiling flowers,

Dancing waterfalls, greenery all over, like one

In a picture of paradise, Blossomed

With all imaginative picturesque beauty

I see you still, in that vast green grassland

Sitting, under an old tree, playing

With the grass roots,

Singing a folk song, slowly

Euphony swirling in air, adding

Touches of innocence, making it look poetic

Breaking the eternal silence, in your own style

Like the god of love has come to pamper you himself

And, you unknown, careless of happenings around

Weaving a shadow of dreams for yourself

Decorating it, with those memorable moments

We spent together, holding hand in hand

With a desire of being together forever and ever

With a feeling to get drowned in each other’s eyes,

Filled with unconditional love and emotion

With an attempt to get lost in each other’s appearance

Carving to make it two bodies, one soul!!!

Oh Dear! Such was our love, and those lovely moments

Invokes me still, forces me to look back

Even the promise we made faded slowly

As the time passed by, and life moved on

That seed of love we planted, turned to a

Banyan tree, whose branches hanging out even today

Reminds us every time we passes it by

Down our memory lane, of love

That was nothing less than ideal, and though

We failed miserably, it still lives there

Asking us to spend one more evening, together

Below its branches, to recreate that magic

That hypnotized the world, one

We once were ready to die for

I see you still,

Sitting, Weaving, Singing

And the dream continues…
