I was talking to your absence
in my tired afternoon siesta.
In my deepest desire,
I wanted to touch, to hold
forever, what was gone.
I poured out everything from within
just to feel –
what was never mine,
and what will never be !
It was felt like an endless dream.
And it seemed I reached so close !
I was just about to hold you
in my arms, and
I was never going to let you go.
I wanted to scream…
to ask you to love
and kiss me now… and always.
But all I got was your absence !
And then, the telephone rang.
the scorching heat of Delhi summer
reminded me to forget,
what was never mine
and what will never be !
