One step at a time
If Your wish is to take me across this river with dreams as steps
Where I can only have one foot on any of the dreams at a time
and never stand with both the feet on any one dream for fear of falling and sinking in the river
Where I cannot so much as turn to appreciate the dream on the last step for fear of falling and sinking in the river
Pray do not make the dreams so alluring, that I fear falling and sinking in the dreams
Pray do not make the promise of slumber and the softness of the bed so rest assuring that I fear falling and sinking in the bed
This once I want to see what happens if I linger on a step.... if I delay the next dream (Yes there has always been a next dream.. I denounce it sulkily at times though)
When your heart beats for another, and you believe the other bleeds for yours
And at the same time the other makes you feel smarting under it's miserliness of expression
At times you know that the other cares but do not want to believe it, for you will have to accept and submit to this eternal waiting for few drizzles of the other emoting
At times you feel the other does not care but do not want to believe it, for you will have to go through the painful unwanted discovery that it meant nothing... all of it.. was for nothing
When you do not know and you do not want to know
Pray for a state
when you do not know and you want to know
which is open armed surrender of cognition
then let yourself flow to a state
when you do know and you want to know
and then you say
Thy will be done...
Till such time...hold on dear heart. Just a little more.... help is on the way... solace is on the way... happiness will come to stay with you for a little longer this time, for once life will look at you with committal eyes.... don't loose hope.. hold on a little more....
The same eyes will light up at your sight... the same lips will bloom at the hint of your steps....
Amen
