Sitting on the platform, waiting for my train,
I look at the unknown faces in vain,
Trying to find that person, that face,,
That gifted me smiles and was reason for my pain.
.
Those faces that I can’t recall,
It’s a fogged memory a distant call,
As if from another life, another age,
Too surreal to be reality at all.
.
Running in the dark, I was chasing a light,
Not knowing the way amidst the trees of great height,
I collided with someone, and fell on the ground,
The light was gone but there were couple of faces in sight.
.
It felt that I’ve known them for years,
Their laughter, their talk, was so sweet to hear,
But a part of me feared the unknown,
I ran away from them, although I wanted them to be near.
.
That moment of indecision is all I regret,
As the time passes, their faces I forget,
Now I’m left with only a painful emptiness,
I may have changed the past, if a second chance I could get.
.
Looking forward to meet them at another place,
Asking the God to fulfill my wish and brighten my days,
As for now, another encounter I pray,
As I search for that forgotten face.
