Reflections

In my reflections,

Across the mirror,

That I often imagine in mind,

While auditing actions in my life,

I have these strange diversions,


A fleeting happiness,

That touches and goes,

Summoning pleasures hitherto unknown,

A fleeting scare,

Of losing it to Universe,

All this amid a permanence, called

The equanimity of rest of life,


There are moments when I think,

Why did you come? Or 

How could it happen?

Then

Moments when I wish,

It was all a dream,


Moments come and go like a tidal wave,

Rising within or subsiding without,

Till we meet,

And melt into each other,

Leaving behind all darkness and doubts,

You and I wither, 


Maybe it will be a great love,

Or the greatest sorrow of this life,

But this I am certain,

These are moments I was living for,

Hoping in my hopes,

Dreaming in my dreams,

For something as beautiful and pure as morning dew,

You....
