A question i asked with someone I met ..
A rainy day with roads in grey all wet...

Can u buy me ..a pair in pink shoes..
A milk shake with strawberry...
My stomach growls ..for chocolate moose ...

My list was just laced with food to eat ...
Days I went in hunger...my eyes cried ...
My heart sat alone ..in memories Street...

My dress in rusted shade..I hide myself
Overgown ...in black ..
A princess once lived in Wealth like gold ..
Dresses embedded Lustrous in floral colours
A heart so strong ..in me so bold ...

Wat went where ...in ways of this Life ...
Called by each soul a beautiful Wife ...

A sharp blow some eyes stole my happiness..
I stopped in time ...forgot to laugh ...

My slim figure ..starving desires to Live..
Quiet Walks on lanes ..long faded clothes
Covered my white hair with a charity
Scarf....

Young in years..I became so Old ..
Wy I'm so true and good to be ..
The lamp shade of side walk passage ..
Falling yellow leaves ...
On grey street...

Someone followed my walk unbalanced
Shaky knees I felt to drink a cup of tea
Where years went by In me i never knew.

A rush drifted me from my own ...
Left with a silence...

Words jammed in my brain.
Seconds Rolled of enchanted hours ..
Minits in days, years ...
Started engines ...like Breathing Train

My quest For him My love
I Lost in crowd .. My tears replied me ..
My heart Never spoke of Proud ...

My soul Inside begged for to Live ..
Amidst those mountains of strings ...
That pulled me to ditch ...

I crawled Like a thing That desperate to
Breathe ....
My words were kept jailed ...
Behind walls ...Grass grown ..on stone beneath

A hand holded me ...Wide arms ..embraced ..
A circle of Love ..each moment I craved...

His eyes had questions to ask ...my replies
Were Numb ..... like sand on ground ...

Are you My Love .... lost few years ago
To whom My Rhythms have found ..?
