Out of all the experiences that I have had with you; waiting for you to return is the strangest.
I mean, what is the right duration of wait?
"Is it enough? Shall I move on?" I always think.
"Will I be able to?" Come on; whom am I kidding?
I longed for your love, your presence, your touch...
Friends told me I will get over you; but nothing happened as such.
Every day I wake up with a dream to see you again...
Well not every day; sleep rarely favors me, but you know what I mean...
This summer will break all the records, the newspaper read today....
But I see the farmers, still calm, as if they are fooled; it is going to rain the next day.
Or maybe, they are not afraid of the wait.
The night waits for the day,
The traveler doesn't mind the delay,
When extremity hits; people pray,
And even if the beloved leaves, memories stay.
So, trust me, I can't and I won't debate;
Just tell me, what is the right duration of wait?
