Tell me how to find a middle ground
Between the ocean of things I want
And palm full of things you can offer
-
50 hazar tak ki range me
Phone lena hai
Can you please suggest
Itne paise kaha say laau-
Don't tell me
it's about to rain,
Tell me whether
you wanna feel it together
or let it go in vein.-
Tell me that you see me.
Let me feel your concern.
One whispered word;
One hesitant glance;
One backward step;
One diminutive sign
From you--
And, I'll run
All the remaining steps,
Back to you.-
Tell me; do you ever think of me?
When you're alone and lonely,
Do you ever browse the internet
And search for snippets of me?
When you're drunk and tired,
After a night of raucous revelry,
Do you ever remember
Those countless, magical evenings
Of only you and me at the bar--
You, drinking your cold beer
And me, singing
Sultry love songs, just for you?
When you're with current chums
Or even with old friends,
Do you ever glimpse traces of me?
When you visit the usual hunts
And decrepit hangouts of the past,
Do you recall those moments
When we used to simply bask
In each other's company?
When you're with someone new,
Do you ever see traits in her
That persistently remind you of me?
Pray, tell me; because, I do.-
