Eyes locked

Not wanting to waver

Drowning in the intensity,

Calamities surrender

Expecting us to quaver

But steady is what we have

Are we lovers dear?

Unfortunate times,

When you lost your mother,

Drowning deep in sorrow,

You said the world is over,

I hugged you tight for eternal long,

Are we lovers dear?

Along the shores, you hold

My hand for so long

we walk a few steps

Mum we are, but I feel

Our connection so strong

Are we lovers dear?

You laugh at my jokes

I revel at your poetry

Moments together so many

Stealing time from others

Just you and me

Are we lovers dear?

The terrace, the nearby fields

Imprints all around

Those two are together

Claim our friends

Don't you like their sound?

Are we lovers dear?

Today I wait for you

At the rock, next to the quay

Shall I ask you the question?

I ask myself every single day

Not doubting you would say yes

When I will kneel down and say

Are we lovers dear?

My dreams know no bound

But the day seems to end,

And you are nowhere to be found,

Panicky is my mind

My nerves tremble to the core

Faster than the wind,

I rush to your compound,

My heart shouting out so loud

Aren't we lovers dear?

I find you by the stairs

Holding hands, I stare

She is most beautiful,

With passion so bare

"Meet my best friend, my love", you say

Not to me but to her

I realize what it means

We were never lovers dear....
