You Are
Still The One
You are still the one whom I
love
and will be the one whom forever I would love
I cannot think of someone else in place of you
Because no one is worth replacing you.
You are always near shoving away my fear
walking with me through all shades of life
You are with me ... walking besides me
holding my hand and inspiring my life.
So what if they do not see you..
I can see as well as feel you.
Feel in the every breath I take
and every move I make.
When I open my eyes and see you no more
I get scared and feel like living no more
Immediately I close my eyes and I see you..
Standing with your arms widespread for me..
But! You tell me
How is dreaming always possible for me?
Because life is a fact and not a dream
I cannot cry nor can I scream..
For rest of the world you are dead and gone
But they know not. They are wrong!
But it has become difficult
for me to go on like this...
I am fed up of the love I miss.
I cannot shove you off..
because I love you ... and will forever do!
But I have a request to make..
please leave me and go away..
please do not anymore you stay
Go.. go away and rest in peace
and let me live in peace.
Let me get used to live without you..
when I close my eyes ... let me not see you.
Because whenever I see you
I'm surely going to miss you
And that will increase my insecurity..
Because ... Unfortunately ...
you are not my destiny.
I know you love me and died loving me..
but when you are with me
you unknowingly hurt me
Because though you walk with me,
you belong to a different world altogether
And even if you are near me,
we can never be together!
Remember..
Till you are near me I cannot forget thee
So please go. .. go away and do me a favor
And I promise you to meet in
next birth ... and return your favor !!
