You came like a feather, Falling softly from the sky onto me. Took my hands into yours, Held them so delicately It felt like a dream, Or more like a fairytale... Where you were the princess, And I didn’t even know who I was. You stayed before my eyes, Like a river that had stopped flowing. You kept coming closer, Each second stealing the distance between us Until not even a wisp of air remained. You hugged me like a soul, Made me crave your touch, Made me ache for your presence. I wanted you like a child longs for warmth. I needed you like the Earth needs the Sun To turn you into my glow in the dark, And shine like the Moon when I faded. But dreams don’t last. And suddenly, it vanished. I realized How could a river ever stop flowing? You drifted away to your path, And I stood still at the shore, Watching... What a beautiful dream it was. ~ Krish Oberoi
