Here is one of them.
___________________________
Restlessness
Desire
Longing
Are now constant companions
Travelling with me
Within me
They have made themselves comfortable
They arrived as tourists
On a travellers visa
But somehow managed to linger on
No force could banish them
My heart , my thoughts
Are yours now
My soul
Subsumed, consumed, blazing
Burning
I live in restless hope
I longingly dream
Of making the journey
Across the miles
The desire to be with you
And to linger on.
Just like my travelling companions
I hope
To stay
Till eternity
In your arms.
