Near You...

Again comes one of those days
When the world sleeps and I wake
To gaze into the starry,moonlit sky
And speak to someone, who wont reply.

You come near me as the chill of the night
And caress my face with the hands of breeze
Here,in your lap, I feel comfort
As through locks of my hair,your fingers release

I recapitulate the moments we shared
Those countless times when we felt so near
Before fate could draw us apart
And, from me,you had to part

Now memories, like the moon, follow
Behind me,wherever I go
Reminding that you are ever so close
No matter how much the time erodes...
