by Ehsan Sehgal
You are in my dreams
You are in my thoughts
You are in my prayers
You become life of me
I wish I were also your dreams
I wish I were also in your thoughts
I wish I were also in your prayers
I wish I were also your life
It is not my luck
I see and meet you
Face to face
Talk to you
The eyes with eyes
Breath to breath
Heartbeat to heartbeat
It is not my luck
It is not my destiny
You are so far
Or you are unaware
I Love you with the truth of the heart
I see you or do not see
If you come to know
I will be somewhere else
Or for someone else
You may feel sorry
For your ignorance
For your delay
Come and take
Your love in your arms
Before all is over.
