A little while,
more my love,
he whispers in my dreams
A little while
is all I need,
before this dreams cease to be;
A little while
you must wait
his unhurried touch speaks
a little while
is all I have
to let you know how I feel;
a little while
I understand
I have to make myself believe
Many of these
little while
is what life turns out to be.

What do I wait for,
do i really know not,
the unsaid remains so,
some feelings don’t grow.
Why did I wait so long
when signs clearly told
it was no good to hope,
you I could ever hold.
Why I could not stop
these lines to show
what I hide from all,
who I still wait for ?
Guess its not my call
to decide and move on;
I shall never be home
unless you mark me yours.

pyaar ka ek aur rang aaj chatak kar mere upar bikhar gaya . Kisi ke izhaar ne mere izhaar aur ikraar ke khwaabon ko hawa de di . Jitni baar ye dil kisi par aaya , iske tootne ke dar se zubaan khaamosh rahi . kabhi khud se darti thi , kabhi duniya ki baaton se. Fir us se mulakaat hui jisne har dar se ladna seekha diya , siwa ek ke. aaj bhi khaamosh nazron se aankhein churaata hai dil. Ek awaaz wo de , duniya ko bataye ki maine apna saathi dhoond liya .. aise hi din ke intezaar me dil aahein bharta hai .. tab tak doosron ke rango se khel karta hai …
Mere intezaar ka rang gehraata hai , izhaar ke rang ki fariyaad karun ??
Secretly she carried
a neon sign over her head –
and stared at passers-by
who looked up
into her blank eyes
and cared to smile,
greetings unsaid.
the wait was on
for the right (or even wrong)
guy to turn up one day
and pull out the right thread
to free her , unravel her,
open her up , as wanted by her.

She got rid of the letters and the gifts the day she met a prospective groom for the first time. Later one night, she found the only photograph of his, hidden in her favorite book. His smile looked different , heart broken almost. She realized he wanted her to wait. And she did. All her life.
