I met this lady the other day
And i can swear she's all
I've ever dreamt to be
Not just beautiful,she seemed happy
She seemed like the person
Who's been blessed with perfection
In everything one can do or be.

I saw her again today
This time, I went up to her- "Hi" !
She looked at me and smiled
And i nearly got dazzled
By the sparkle in her eye.

We talked and talked, it felt like forever
Until I felt the rays of the setting sun
Light up her face in a golden glow
The sound of laughter fell from her lips
Like the cascading water from a waterfall
Looking at her, i couldn't help but ask
Looking at her, i couldn't help but wonder-

How are you so happy!
Did you achieve everything you wanted?
You seem to have no regrets
You must be really lucky!

She looked at me fondly and said-
Life is never easy, little one!
Neither for me,nor for anyone.
But it is meant to be lived.
In myself , I believed.

I held on!
I believed that,one day, it'll be okay...
