TENDER FEELINGS: a sonnet

TENDER FEELINGS: a sonnet



I think that it’s a fact that you like me.
I too have feelings of soft love for you.
Your feelings rather are too clear to see.
I too can’t live without you, it is true.

Though I have never mentioned it to you,
Nor you have ever whispered it to me,
We both do seem to entertain a cue,
That jointly has been planned our destiny.

My dear, I always harboured a thought that
A day will come when you’ll be only mine.
It’s not my feeling, rather His diktat,
That our lives should together intertwine.

All that I need is just a nod from you,
That will color my life in a new hue.
