And then She turned...

And then, she turned....
She was looking as beautiful as ever,
Same old eyes, same old smile,
Which I could forget never..

I wanted to say so many things,
But in front of her, I stood still..
Thousands of emotions, but not a single word,
What is this, is it love?

'Hi' said she , so did I,
More than her,I was shy
'Good to see you after so long'
She started as we started walking along...

Years have passed, then I realised
As I told her about my past life
Studies, then work, everything had changed..
Since the time we had been friends..

Although everything had changed
But same were the feelings for her
It was easy to think
But so difficult to tell her...

The more she spoke,
the lesser I heard,
Ears might be listening,
But the mind wandered...

All the times which she spent together as a child
Came flashing into my mind,
The times when we laughed, we played, we did homework
Since that time I have adored her..

Then unfortunately we had to split
To a new city, I had to shift
Neither of us said goodbye..
We just sobbed and cried..

Now she was sitting close to me,
My heart was joyous and glee,
Was thinking how much I missed her,
But how much did she-I needed an answer!

She remembered me and my talks pretty well,
She came to meet me and bought me a gift
She also likes me I was assured,
Perhaps waiting for me to say it first

Should I tell her now or later
the faster it is it will be better..
So lost in her and my thougths,
I didnt realise that even she sensed it..

She stopped talking and stared back at me
"What happened? Why are you looking that way?"
"I love you" - I said and looked at her..
Her lips curled into a smile...
Thats how I made her mine..


Our love was true, chaste and divine..
We were made for each other, we realised..
She said "Why you siad so late? "
And I regret that till date..
