I Am Waiting

I am waiting

to recreate the scene once more

wish this time you whisk me away

to a different world altogether...

It has been ages we sat over a cup

the ritual has a distinct mark

in my memory slot

ah me! it sends sighs and hiccup 

I visit the corridors of office the forlorn benches of the park

but, only in vain...

the haunting melody drives away cheer

breathes in balmy nostalgic strain 

torrid flow of life perhaps...has sucked all sap

and filled rainbows with festering ballads 

my jaded eyes have not been irrigated

for quite a while

they have become deserts, devoid of nectar

lonesome moments have melded into dusky hours and years 

flickering silhouette of hope pings my soul at times 

asking me to stay afloat

embrace zephyr of love and ...my involuntary steps check front door often 

even without a buzz 

I wish ...we shall share

some ravishing moments soon

dipped in the enchanting brew...

leaving behind these empty pages of life 

to weave a tapestry anew.
