Lighter moments - Love lost

Vikram Krishna

Your moments of solitude with moist eyes, draws despair and a deep sigh
Heart aches and tears roll, life without your smile is taking a big toll.
And when you don`t tell me why, I become gloom-full and cry

In my heart, that constant throb keeps asking me - I am not her love, her life..Is that why?
Simmers of doubt creep and try, is there someone else stealing my life,

Thoughts then reconcile..she must be tired or hormones acting wil`d
I let you be, as you feel; becoming mute and somber, I skip the meal
But still that constant throb keeps asking me - I am not her love, her life.. Is that why?

I try to reason..a conversation to pry, to release you from the prison and strengthen the tie,
Things get better, talks begin to stutter and happiness looms for a short while
We get on to our chores, putting a feign smile, but inside the doors I know the feeling is still vile

And..that constant throb keeps asking me - I am not her love, her life.. Is that why?
Now here, I am far away, not knowing what is right...and still that throb pressing me tight,
I hear your voice - Darling I love you and I miss you, Get back here and let me kiss you,
I look up and cry - Oh Almighty, get me over this rue and please make it true.

Relieve me of this throb that keeps asking me - I am not her love, her life...Is that why?
Next moment I get her call, Darling.. I love you, I miss you, without you, life`s a pall.

I breakdown and cry - Love... it`s too late, it`s the poison and it`s up my fate
Wish you too had heard my throb and the cry that kept asking - Am I not your love, is it a fob? She looked up and said

Thank you oh god for hearing to me and making our heart throb, Now I know the relation is strong and he was not playing hob.

And she cried - You fool, didn`t you know you are my only true love and I can`t be another`s bride, And as for the poison, I know you too well, get back here and make my tummy swell.
