Stay !

Hey guys,

I woke up to a throbbing migraine this morning and called in sick. Slept like a dead log till afternoon and I finally feel a lot better !

Today marks the end of the #NaPoWriMo and I was really keen on writing something.

Back in the end of March, I promised myself that I'd write everyday this month but come on, when have I ever managed to stick on to promises like that 😅

Thanks to FSP2Z being a schedule driven project and the unrealistic deadline set for the IFC package of piling contract, I found myself always pressing for time. Nevertheless, I resorted to writing atleast once a week.

Okay, That's enough ranting from my end...Don't hit the close button without reading the poem now !

Here it goes... Presenting to y'all today's poem "STAY" (Remember when young Murph tells Cooper to "stay" in interstellar ? - It's the same emotion here as well) 




Stay,

For I know this wouldn't last,
You and I, would be a dream,
And the dream would fade,
When night meets the day.

Hold on to me,
Like the leaves on a flimsy branch,
Dangling to the tunes,
Of the distant wind.

Cos anytime now we'd have to part,
And when the time comes,
You'd be gone.
Our dreams would be washed,

But hey, this moment, where you and I,
Keep stealing glances,
Between silent conversations,
Would be etched in our hearts,
Till the end of time !

So....Stay,
Stay with me and let us be.


P.S: Just because I write stuff, doesn't mean I sail through it. A writer can also draw inspiration from other people...So, don't flood my WhatsApp chat window with messages like 'Oooooooh....you finally found the love of your life, is it ?" 


And goodbye for now....pip pip !
