Shadow

“In the midst of the commotion,
I saw your shadow
Before I saw your smile,
Leaving a lingering question behind.

Hope as big as the ocean
Gives my eyes a new glow
Keeping me company for miles
Until doubts, with it, get intertwined.

Will we meet again?
Will our paths cross again?
Will the invisible string tie us up
And fate, to us, will raise a cup?

Alas, this isn’t the city of dreams,
It’s just the city we live in
As days play out one after the other
And we might never again see each other…”
