In a dying hope to replenish the lost joy
With my eyes rolling over the shallow words
Trying to make every attempt to sink into
My body that was full of vibrating emotions,
My fingers become lifeless when they fail
To turn the pages of a book held in my hands.
Just when my thoughts began to drift away
Towards the bottomless well of boredom,
With a blink of an eye they turned around
In search of you: The Goddess of My Dreams.

The wisps of thoughts which clouded my vision
Started clearing up to unveil a picture of you
Treasured deep in the vault of my mind palace.
Just like a fragile plant that needs to be nurtured
With drizzle of water and rays of the morning sun,
My heart breathed life into the portrait with a beat
Of life to light...
