Eyes are a-flame…
 |
My art |
Yesterday I met you in my dreams,
Everything remained the same ..
My heart fluttered like a butterfly,
When your lips made mine their aim.
You left me crying, pleas remained unheard;
My eyes were a-flame.
Today I met you in my dreams…
I remained your self-same song,
One you forgot half-way along.
All the while in my ears it rang,
Tumbling with the self-same love.
But away you flew, unaware
That my eyes were a-flame.
Tomorrow if I meet you in my dreams,
Will I remain the same and would you?
The winter is cruel but the nights are long.
Will we sing our self-same song?
Or would that feeble thread snap,
The one I thought remained strong;
The one that binds our hearts as one?
These I know are not just dreams,
But your love that I yearn for and miss.
They have come to me, I am sure..
To kindle that self-same pang
So my eyes remain a-flame, all along.
