There are times when time turns against us,
when distance dilutes our closeness,
and we turn silent...losing our inner patience!
it seems though life is cruel to us,
creating chaos in our quiet peaceful tiny world.

yes we cry...for in those cruel moments it seems
as if our togetherness was just a beautiful dream...!
its unexplainable - the haunting feeling of loneliness,
the fears...but it only lasts a few moments.

the times when words fail to speak out what we are feeling,
when gestures, smiles turn silent to reveal our heart's yearning...
our heartbeats are all thats we hear, and
we cherish those moments of life when we are together
because we are bound by breathes...to live and die together...!
