Come back to me

That day so vaguely in mind once upon a time,
That voice echoing somewhere from far away...
That moment we parted after a tender kiss of a lifetime,
That instance we loosened our grips and parted our ways...

And now I have lost count the hours since we parted our ways,
It has been weeks, months and countless days,
All the strength needed to keep the emotions at bay,
When will you come back and decide to stay?

Looking out the window day after day,
Checking the mailbox again and again,
Crossing off the dates one after another,
It's time; come...

It's been so long,
It's been so quiet,
It's been enough waiting,
It's time; it's now...


Come...
Come back...
Come back to me...

Inspired by the movie Atonement

Dawn

A hundred letters without a reply,
A thousand days without your scent,
Feels eons ago since your voice broke the silence.

Ten thousand miles to get to you,
A million reasons to embrace you,
Feels like forever until your presence dawns the night.

Walking on the path towards the dawn,
Alone on the dark moonless nights,
Each step closer to dawn,
Each step closer to you...

From the horizon I vaguely see,
A hint of ray with a halo embracing,
And a figure approaching from a distance away,
Bringing sunshine once more towards my way...
