11. “Journey of Dreams”
(…continued…)
After waiting for two long months,
oday the meeting was planned,
but because of Niki’s accident,
it never happened as planned.
Her eyes were swollen,
her cheeks turned red,
she kept sending
message after message saying sorry to Nil
Nil gave her a gentle good-night call,
“If you smile,
I’ll tell you the state of my heart…and all…””
Laughing softly, Niki …made a sweet request:
“tell me something aabout me right now,”
she said, as a test.
Nil spoke whatever came from his heart,
he carried her to a dream-world cloud…
while reciting it,
👇
“Today we could not meet the whole long day,
Shall we travel in dreams tonight,
where hearts find a way?
Let us meet there, on the same bright moon,
& talk heart to heart till the night ends soon.
When you look deep into my eyes,
you’ll find that same tender expression
waiting for you.
If in this life we meet or not,
or fate keeps pulling us apart,
we’ll remember our that meeting…
Your face will return behind my eyes,
Even at my last breath,
where my soul softly lies.”
– Nil
