Chasing A Star Beyond Reach

By Ananya Gupta

On a sunny day, like a beam of light 

the moment I look into his eyes.

A sleepy pretty pair which hypnotize 

his little curls covering his light brown eyes,

teeths showing that precious little smile. 

He felt like a dream, a dream came true 

but can I really dream? I muttered to myself.

A dream which can never be true, is it even okay to dream? 

He was always a Star in Sky,

I was a flower dreaming too high.

He was always a “STAR” in my heart 

while I was just another flower. 

His smile I couldn't resist, it tugs on my heart 

but a flower can only admire , we were far way apart.

Where I was an Earth 

He was on Sky. 

Where I stood still at night 

he always came to bright up the sky.

We were like the “Pretty Parallel” they say,

so upfront and close, yet cant find a way,

A way, which can keep us together

and get us to be like this forever.

(continue..)

But my dear! Things can’t always go our way

With love comes Pain and Dismay.

Knowing we can't be together and still loving felt like a crime 

But I can't bear to leave his Precious little Smile.
