Deep Thought

I am a lover #OctPoWriMo 2013 day 5


I am a lover
who dreams day and night
to sit by your side

I am a lover
who wishes to count the stars
stuck on the blue black sky
and on some star-less nights
I shall look in your eyes instead

I am a lover
who prays of a morning maybe
when you are the first thing I see

I am a lover
who grows from inside 
but sometimes is all childlike

I am a lover
who count days when you are gone
The desperation kills me 
But the calender makes me wait
until I see you next
for patience is the key to your fortress

I am a lover
who sees and observes
the falling leaves or the rains
the windy days or cold nights
In them, I see your reminisces 

I am a lover
who talks of you all the time
not with others but with myself
For I dont mind
You left a part of you, in me, to reside

But more than a lover
I can be a friend
A companion when you need
Or a listener in longing

But more than a lover
I wish to be a person
who doesnt demand your love in return
But the one who
beholds your faith and trust
