Dear

As the V day comes, everyone talks of “Love”
I do wonder, all I get is only a day for my “Dove”,
All my days pass by, lost in thoughts of my dear,
How can I express all that love in a day of the year?

There’s so much to tell her when she is near
Her casual glance is enough to make me cheer
A simple ‘Hi” lights up my day like a chandelier
Every time she passes me, all my thoughts just steer,

When she is before me, I come to a standstill like “mere”
And as she moves on, all I have is only my sorrow to hear
I know without her, purpose of my life will disappear,
This very thought frightens me, in creeps an unknown fear

I wanna express my love to her and make things clear
Friends push me saying “expressing love needs no fear”
I muster up courage and want to request her to hear
When I say “I Love you” darling, please be my “dear”

I go and stand before her, her eyes pierces me as a spear
Warmth in her smile questioned me what makes you fear?
She just stared at me and I went dumb like a queer
She said “Enough of waiting give me a warm hug dear”

Brimmed with joy, I hugged her and my eyes filled with tears,
All happened in a second, what words could not do in years
