Then!!!

That was the day

I saw you

I smelt of sweat

And looked tanned

You walked out

And I lost sense of self

We admired each other then

Destiny is weird

Met again

And hit off

On the path unknown

The path we carved then

Every little bit of steps

Were etched in eternal ink

To remain ever imprint

On the path we carved out

Only to realised I faltered half way then!

I pulled up self

Gathered strength to catch up

With your steps

Watch my steps carefully

To never falter again

Huge margin existed

Between us, and I was slow

Thank GOD you waited then!

Caught up with the steps

Started re-carving the path

I faltered again midway

This time you have gone far away

And, you will not wait

Never talked why I faltered

Nor, why u have gone far away

Time is a friend

Time will heal

And, I will cope up those lost steps

Being more careful

In the steps I take now

While I hope u have

Chosen the right path

To not falter as I did then!!

But you are a special one I hold close then

And memories will last a lifetime!! Ever

(An Ode to a special friend)
