Crawling out,

Trying to be helped,

I wonder why was I sent,

To be thrashed,

Out in the shallows,

There, right there where my vision doesn't go,

I could feel something unknown,

I crawled again,

To make it my own!


Crossing these hurdles,

Not sure what the swamp does,

Would it hide me beneath,

Was this what we agreed,

I didn't have the answers,

All I could see was,

Hope and some dust,

Yes, I did crawl, again,

Living through all the pain,

In search of something,

That was mine, and was caring!


I reached out, but in vain,

I passed out, and she held my hand,

Guiding me through the tyranny,

Across a thousand seas,

You showe

d faith,

You waited,

For me to open my eyes,

Killing those unwanted lies,

Hidden in my sighs,

Only to be woken up to you!


Now I know, it wasn't a "what", it was "who",

Yes, it was you,

Whom I searched in this whole wide world,

I spoke, but couldn't utter a single word,

It's quiet, it's what I want,

There are no stories, there is now nothing that would haunt,

The love of us is what took me years to realize,

I see you looking at me,

With a few tears in your eyes!


I promise they wouldn't be there again,

I promise there won't be any pain,

I am sorry for all the words,

That drove you insane,

Hold my hand,

Running away,

Let us begin again!
