The Unfinished Chapter - 79

Chapter 79

I turn around and find myself I've lost

Will this pathless journey my life cost?

Frantic, I turn around and look

Through every lane, corner and nook

And then, I see myself somewhere

Somewhere between hope and despair

Hope because this love brings me strength

Despair because I'm afraid that no matter how much I love you, I could love you even more

I see you right here in my heart

You run through my veins, enrapture my soul, enthrall my spirit

No answer can ever satisfy a soul in love

This evasive answer justifies the purity of love in its silence

You, my love are scared, but I am too

But the strength of my love takes me through

How strong you are, you don't even know

You've given me so much, please; please take just a few steps more

Then you'll see what your heart is saying

And, you'll find me there, dancing to a tune that you and I have forever been playing

Love you forever I will

And, I will await that dance with you, until

Until you hold me, and never let me go

Time will stand still; doves will fly really, really slow

Even then, I will love you between hope and despair

Hope to be able to love you even more, despair on realising that this lifetime is just not enough to show you how much I love you, how much I care...
