I'll never see your face again...Part 2

The time passed slowly, flying above the ocean.

As soon as I landed back on earth

As soon as I found reception

The first text went out to you.

Herculean courage to type those 7 words

Re-read the text so many times

Before I finally sent, “back from the trip. How are you?”

Waited for a second and almost regretted having sent.

An instant reply, “m good, cn u talk?”

Had my heart racing like mad.

Maybe you wanted to fight some more.

I’ll hear you yell, sober this time.

Sheepishly escaped my parents’ eyes

Drifted away for some privacy.

A sea of unsettling tide of emotions

I decided to be formal with you.

Surprisingly, I heard a warm you, from the other side.

No more cocky, just genuine emotions after a long time.

The wonder struck me when we met in a few days

I had thought I’ll never see your face again

Felt like I found something I lost in the fight with time.

You weren’t different; you were what you used to be.

Back to the mystic chivalry, the winks, the naughty glance.

Making me dance as we walked hand in hand.

Still I had no clue what I was up for.

Till we decided to descend the stairs.

A stair ahead of you, as you followed.

You pulled me back and kissed my lips.

So unprepared it was so clumsy,

But I loved to get your taste again.

A kiss on my hand, and those fixed eyes.

Catching gazes more than ever, but you didn’t really care this time.

For all you had were eyes for me.

And I dutifully listened to you.

Soon  it was time to go.

I wish I could stay, but I had to go.

You weren’t ready to separate just as yet.

Extended your stay a little more.

In our last moments together, you said you’ll come back to me.

The days apart were just as harsh and more to you.

For a moment I forgot to breathe.

Not ready to believe what I had just heard.

Wet eyes, hadn’t seen you like this in so long.

Body and emotions acted at once.

Wish I could you hug there and then.

Back to my heaven, in your arms again.
