The Awaited Return

Its been 4 years since I last saw you,
pretty in pink I saw you smile,
waving me a half hearted good-bye
my jeep moved on, cutting the grass in two
like our hearts spaced out in me and you

What I had left behind was a rosy past
Dreamy days and rosy nights,
your lips moving in conversations
my eyes fixed on your hopeful eyes,
you dreamed of having my babies
and I dreamed of touching your soft belly,
So many nights had passed into
writing poetry and lyrical songs of love to you
until  a letter arrived and I had to leave far from you..

The cold nights here behold in them
the smoke of fire and pain of bullets,
the misty darkness makes my heart sore
as I sleep one more time without you in sight
I know you stay awake and pamper fright..

The sun shone with the noise of tankers in sight,
today we'll have to give them a tough fight,
Its not just the war but our destiny that I have to fight,
I long to see you smile in the last pretty pink
There is blood here, there is pain here
Lost lives, lost friends
But I dream of seeing you wait for me
and hold my toughest breath alive.

I will return to thee,
I will recite to thee,
our songs of love,
I will sing to thee.

Its been a bright dawn,
I climb down from my jeep
The roses have bloomed on the budding land
I wait to look at thee,
I wait to see your graceful smile
I run, I run faster..

You open the door,
You are no more mine..
The pink dress and the dreamy nights
I lost them to the 4 years of fight.

I shall fight again, not my death,
But my Life..

I am cold and I cant breathe,
I am about to close my eyes
I see you in pink, smiling, waving..
My vision blurss,
I won..I embraced..
not your warm arms,
but a cold death.
