If a smile is,
light as wind & vibrant as a waterfall...
Then its 'you'.

If a look,
burns me cold & calms the wavering mind...
Then its 'you'.

If a voice,
magnetizes the heart & lulls the ego...
Then its 'you'.

If,
the heart thumps, agitation swells & the soul ripples in someones presence...
Then it should be you & only 'You'.

I forgot,
forgot the day when I stopped,
stopped listening to myself and got caught,
caught in some life, which I... couldn't,
couldn't say was mine. But I lived,
lived all the while wanting, hoping,
hoping to get away, run away from this,
this circling... and start in a direction,
any direction leading towards ME.
