Whenever I am alone and I feel lonely,
I invite the moments spent with you,
They come to me even on a soft call,
I never need to be loud.
Just like you,
they give me a tight hug,
And take all my frustrations and pain away.
Then I play hide and seek with them… for hours,
They hide themselves;
I search for them and find them,
Then both of us get tired and after taking some rest,
And I ask them, will you come back again?
They say, we will.
And those innocent moments spent with you,
come again next evening.
It has become a routine now.
Yesterday, finally I told them,
why don’t you stay here,
with me forever,
and they replied,
we will be with you,
but promise that you will never let dust come on us and
never forget us.
And I smiled, and said,
when did I forget you?
And which one of you I live with my full energy.
It is just that I have always been scared of your purity,
innocence and virgin
unpolluted smile.
Sometimes I feel too weak to face them and
I try to run away.
But I have always been blessed with you.
