The wait that wasn't in vainYou were only made for me
God said this has to be,
Then why couldn't it be true
Why did I lose you ?
You left me there alone
and came here before,
Leaving me to wait
for you at the shore.
And as you were leaving
I hope you would come to know,
Someday when the flowers bloomed
that someone had loved you so.
I had an undoubted feeling
that you would surely return,
Hold my hand and we would stroll
In the evening and under the sun.
But then I kept waiting
and you didn't come,
Pulling my breath away
and leaving me all numb.
My love for you
was my ultimate strength,
Still I kept wondering
what for was the wait meant.
Are we made for each other
or are we really not,
You had told me once
which I intentionally forgot.
Tell me the truth once more
for now and for all,
Was it true what you silently said
when we first met at the mall.
I could very well see
the blush on your face,
The dreamy look in your eyes,
a just another love struck case.
Life suddenly looked heaven
just revolving around you,
My love for you is boundless
I wish I could tell you.
All this I remembered
but still didnt shed a tear,
Looked towards the almighty
with all my hope ,my dear!
A hope ,that you listened
to what all my heart felt,
That I couldnt live without you
a cry that made the stone melt.
That cry was deep from my heart
and that hope wasnt in vain,
For a lovely wind blew
and dropped the gentle rain.
Just then a leaf fell
a lovely word of dote,
The one you had sent
and this was all you wrote.
'Of all friends I have ever met
you are the one I won't forget,
So when I die before you do
I ll go to heaven and wait for you.'
And this was how I understood
the reason for my state,
The wait for both the lovers
that was written in their fate.
I thanked the wind again and again,
for bringing the note to me,
That told me about your wait
and all that was felt by thee.
Then I happily left the shore
My heart, enriched with love anew,
That brought me here to heaven,
thinking ,Alas! I would be forever with you.
