Rendezvous With Love

 It was a cold winter night,

And there was not a soul in sight.

As I was walking, I was cursing my fate,

How could I have forgotten, how could I have been so late?

Suddenly, I saw a girl sitting by the lake;
I thought it was an illusion, something fake!

But as I went closer I saw, she was really there,

Sitting all by herself as if, she wasn’t bothered by the cold, as if she didn’t care!

I opened my mouth to speak, but couldn’t utter a word,

I couldn’t understand why she was sitting there---It seemed so absurd!

All of a sudden she turned around,

And as if mesmerized…we kept on staring at each other without making any sound!!

Her eyes told me so many things,

Telling me that she wanted to fly, to fly without wings!

I went and sat beside her,

And asked her in a murmur,

“Are you ok? What is wrong? You can tell me!”

She said,” I want to die and set my soul free.”

I held her hand and said, “Don’t run away from life,

What you are going through is just a temporary strife!

I can assure you, that life isn’t as bad as you think it to be,

I have been through all this, trust me!!”

She came so close, that her breath was almost upon mine,

But I kept on reminding myself, ‘I shouldn’t cross my line’.

Her lips touched mine and the feeling was so pure,

I felt like I had just contracted some ailment without any cure.

I broke apart and said, “What we are doing is wrong,

We are dragging this far too long.”

She silenced me with a kiss and said, “I love you”

And then with a smile on my face I said, “Let’s make our dreams come true!!”
