One Last Time
by Sneha Subramanian Kanta
(Mumbai, Maharashtra, India)
Walking miles together in the rain...!
One last time hold my hand
and let's walk in the rain
drenched from head to toe
One last time let's go back to the place
where we often used to meet
and time would fly by
looking at the birds in the evening sky
One last time take me back to the moments
where we both, you and me,
were together like time can never testify again
One last time let me feel the shrill of your breath
on mine so i can sometime feel you
when you are not with me
yet contained somewhere within my breathing
One last time let us together laugh at the world
and feel how worthless it is
to indulge in worldly wise idiosyncrasies
One last time take me in your arms
and I'll ask time to freeze
and in that very moment
let our souls be contained...
