After A Long Time…………………

After A Long Time…………………

It was my school days, when we met each other,

I was in class ten and she was two years my junior.

I used to go school by my cycle and with my friends,

And she used to take the school bus and sits at the last end.


She walks with her friends just besides me and my friend,

It made me always to feel something can’t express from my end.

I used to look at her from the corners of my eye,

And my mind was just flying like the butterfly.


My heart bit used to increase and wanted to say something,

But my confidence was bit low to spell out anything.

She was tall, beautiful and charming looked like a doll,

Her eyes were like the blue ocean spreading the beauty to all.


Her looks were so deep and eye catching, but was very cool,

It made her look more attractive and very beautiful.

Her beautiful black long hair sometimes flies with the touch of air,

Some used to fall on her face some on shoulder hiding earring there.


Her smiles were so sweet it made me feel mad and I used to stare,

Her lips were red and looked like dancing with her inner tune there.

She walks very slow and never gave the chance to follow,

Sometimes she looks back and it gave me big blow.


At the lunch break when we all assemble in the canteen,

I always wait for her and sometimes skipped my tiffin.

Sometimes the white rose on her hair spread her beauty,

Her school bag on her back was an obstacle and very naughty.


Everyday she came to school and used to pass besides me,

It gave me always a different sense to feel and lost in dream.

It was like this one year of our passed with silence from each side,

It was known to many about us and our silence, nothing to hide.


Till that time, I only knew her name and her class,

Now the time came for me to leave the school as tenth pass.

On the last day of my school, I thought to spell it out,

With a red rose in hand waiting at the gate like a boy’s scout.


I was nervous and feeling shy to spell the three words,

It was a challenge and test for me and my guts.

I was sweating and my heart beat had increased,

She came with her friends and slowed down her speed.


I just went to her and gave the rose flower,

She took it and left the place with a whisper.

I was nervous and unable to hear,

There was within me a great fear.


I wondered and left the place and the school,

I was trying to control the anxiety and trying to be cool.

I went to college, but still used to look for her at gate,

Then understood that I was bit got late.


She had left the school and our town,

I kept all my feelings and emotions hidden.

Now I am in college doing my graduation,

Still, she is always in my imagination.


As one day going by my motor bike to college,

I saw her with an umbrella on other side of road’s edge.

I just felt as if in the sky of my life full moon shine,

Thought everything with her should be well and fine.


I was thinking to take the turn and take my bike,

Saw a big town bus came and stood at that side.

The bus had gone and traffic was clear by that time,

But again I missed her ‘’After A Long Time’’.
