While I have you

While I sleep, while I’m awake - I dream of your eyes. Isn’t it them I see behind the shadows of my loneliness?

These nights are so forlorn without you here. The beauty of dawn and the sighs of dusk go unanswered without you here. Come back, please do. There isn’t any alleviation from this incredible pain without you here. In the heights of my depths, isn’t it you I see? I dream of the storm in your eyes beyond the calm of this placid sea.

I had everything in the world when I held you in my arms. The world bloomed in winter when I felt your radiating glow thaw away everything black ice. Mountains melted away into oceans with every flaming memory of you besides me. In the purity of elegance, isn’t it you I see in these moments? I dream of the graceful coy in those eyes through the veil of misted spaces.

Drunken rancor engulfs every moment of these beautiful nights. They sing out my heart’s forlorn pleas; can’t you hear it when the heavens join in with melancholy! I haven’t slept for months even as the moon has turned blue in the jewel studded black skies. In the yearnings of these valleys, is it not you I see in every stranger? I dream of the intoxication in your eyes.

I dream of you. I dream of your eyes. There isn’t escape from loneliness while I have you with me. Isn’t it you I see in me?

Mood: Serene
Song: Tere Naina – Kailash Kher
If you like this... listen to Tere Naina by Kailash Kher. That's the inspiration...

Amazing few lines, to say the least. A very precise choice of words to create the magic - heights of my depths, radiating glow thaw, purity of elegance, to name a few.

Simple, yet bang on human emotions !

If one has listened to the song prior to reading this, it will look all the more beautiful...since i had heard this one before,and is incidentally one of my favourites, i could understand the inspiration in the initial lines..."oonchayiyon ki gehraayiyon me...tum hi hona..."...in the heights of my depths,isn't it you i see?
all in all...beautiful...something that makes one want to go through it once again..
