Feel It

Lighting struck all around, as your lips parted
They made way for a smile and countless hearts were lighted….
Rushing like the monsoon wind, you just swept by
I was lost in a heavenly scent, as you let your hair fly….

They fell over me like raindrops, cold yet full of life,
Urged to lift you in my arms, I was just for a while….
As you turned to lift them, your eyes met my sight
It seemed like a sunny day, at ten in the night….

What lies behind those shades, wondered I
Warily I lifted mine, to look you in the eye….
You held back your hand, as they were not to meets
Dumb as I was, I dropped the book @ your feet…..

Lifting it with a giggle, you said in the sweetest tone
“Will you lend it to me, once you are done”….
I could just mumble, “Yes..s, the book why not?”
“No dear your eyes, the gift I never got….”

Looking at you again, lost for words
God gave you so much beauty, but for the worse….
Yet you smiled, and just walked away
As if you were telling me, to live life in happy way….

Yeah life is so precious, but your eyes are the gems
Help three people see, please donate them….
They say the only way, to live after death
Pass them to someone and your soul will merrily breath!!!!
