In the shadows...
The last time we parted,
There were tears in your eyes...
My parting gift...
That you refused to part with...
Today, my search ends-
I have found you.
Only, this is not the you' I left,
You grew wings out of the fires of hell...
I hear laughter...
See the joy you spread...
I feel the warmth...
My chill could not touch...
I see your eyes...
They speak of nothing but love...
I look deeper...
I am not there anymore!
A shy smile, a silent question...
I am just another somebody'
Deserve you, I did not...
But to be a nobody'...
To be wiped out like that...
Insignificant me!
I hang around...
Giving you space...
Watching from a distance,
In ardent admiration...
I dare not touch...
For fear of staining you...
I remain in the shadows...
Guarding you in stealth...
In your happiness...
I find my salvation...
Nearer...farther...
Where you need me to be...
But I will be here...
Till my last breath be.
PS: What would happen if Sanam had an accident and suffered from amnesia at the end of this torture track?...And Seher took her away to some place safe...far away...
These are my thoughts on that...kind of like an OS...😳😆
The title applies to both of them- Sanam is only a shadow of her real self, until she regains her memory...And Aahil vows to remain in her shadows, lest he ends up hurting her again by refreshing the painful memories...
