Mine Alone

By the highway, I stand
Where I stood so many times before
My faded jeans my faded shirt bleached by the sun
The yearning within me the long road..
The scorching sun... Burning.
The scent of sandalwood.
At the going down of the sun
When the day's through,
Living ones mesmerised, the colours so vivid so true
Incandescent colours the reds, the purples the golds
Descending behind the horizon far
Leaving me mesmerised...worshiping
The going down of the sun.
The wonder before one's eyes.
In the villages in the distance, the shimmering lights,
The lonely temple.. the gusting winds
Your hair floating in the breeze,
Your lips..your sun burnt lips!
I speak your name..can not refrain from calling you
Yet again chasing you,
Turning slowly smilingly you do
Hearing me calling you
I knew you'd be there
Always been there for me.
Listening to me,
There's always a story if you want to hear.
In many different ways, I've cared for you.
Alighting from the train I runned to you..
Taking hold of your face kissing you
And by the waterfall I dance and danced with you
Behind that shimmering curtain, I kissed you
By the sea shore, I took your hands in mine
You were wet, so handsome
Looking into your eyes I kissed you, yet again
The madness of that night I can still feel you
The fire in our blood burning wild
In the darkness of our nights,
The love in the dark..Feeling you.
By the roadside the coming bus, I was waiting for you
The Dhabas by the roadside the food..welcoming
The kettle, steaming,  that much, needed tea.
By now the purple skies the stars
Scintillating in the darkness of my skies
Raising my head high counting those stars,
Twinkling high above my skies.
In the long road ahead calling your name
Uttering, wait won't you!
The difference between loving you. like I do
Is that you're still there for me
You know..
You're mine!
