You weren't even mine, When I held you In ocean of my eyes, That spilled down To my lips, and later - my heart. So faintly, like moonbeams caressing air, Or sunshine at dawn, You lingered, forever in my heart. Yet, eversince You became mine, I am undone by how quietly - A Fire birthed each second your gaze Struck mine! How much I prayed - To see you in my thoughts, But all it was, All you are - Is but a dying love. Blending into a moonless day, Perhaps love, in absence, Felt infinite. For the closer I reach for you, The farther you drift away .
