Have I told you

Have I told you about the fairies by my side, no they didn't come from heavens up above, no they didn't come flying through the skies, everyday I see them in your eyes.

Have I told you how miracles come to life, with your compassionate heart and endearing smile.

Have I told you my sunshine, I try to be someone you can cherish, I try to be someone deserving of all the love and sacrifice, I try.

Sometimes I fail, sometimes I learn .. but all this while, have I told you that I could just hold your hand, sit under the stars and spend a lifetime.

.. she held my hand

 It shattered with the loudest of sounds, a palpable silence in the commotion all around, 

millions of pieces of broken glass, carrying reflections, of a beautiful ruptured dream,

I must be closer to the sun than I thought, it's melting away, all over the place, am I breaking apart ?

A vanquished spirit lying somewhere amidst this chaos.

Where is the sunshine, am I turning blind ?

Close your eyes dear, look, few light years away, not very far,

there's a silent supernova exploding, unleashing turbulent, destructive forces, 

all these innumerable tiny little stars, aren't just broken pieces my dear,

I see it in your eyes, the glittering stardust. 

She held my hand, we looked up to the skies, each one of those countless twinkling stars, 

shining with brightest of the smiles, perceptions of a blind man, in all lucidity.
