Dreams

Waiting for my turn, I stood there

the storm blew against me from nowhere

the rain drenched me all over

And then the sun burnt me inside out

But I stood there, waiting for you

Because I know you'll be there one day

the day we'll talk from the sun set

We will talk all the night

And holding each other's hands

we'll wink at the shining stars

and shoo the silent naughty moon

who peeps into our privacy

Sitting in the meadows

Staring at the starry black sky

holding each other

we wait for the sun

To wake us up

And part us from our lovely bliss

And then you won't be there for me

because you're just a dream

No Promises

There are miles to go before I sleep
Mountains to climb and rivers to cross
Dense forest to traverse and meadows to sweep
A life to waste for what reasons gross

And there is a partner by the side
who walked a step behind
Who walks a walk to keep my woes aside
A partner by the side for soothing the mind

And she said," I give no promises"

"I give no words,but i'll love you forever"
Love or no love, i have to cover the distances
Move i must,though the mind is not so clear
Through the heavy rains and the gusty winds

Till the sun sets and the birds flee to their nest
Till the tired legs gives up and darkness crept
Move i must through the sand and the dust
Oh, how light is life ,when there are no promises to be kept!
