Far away is a dreamland
wherein lay all her dreams.

The beauty of the nature-
the restless ocean waves,
the cold, gushing wind,
the star-studded sky,
the chirping of birds.
Ohh! The beauty all around!!

In the silent, eerie night,
she walks barefoot on the sand
and when she looks at her reflection in the ocean,
she looks at …Oh my! A stranger!

A person who has searching eyes,
a frown on her face,
and a desperate look.

And then, suddenly I see her eyes gleam
and the frown turns into a smile,
the desperation is overcome by those rosy, blushing cheeks
and happiness is writ all over her face….

I’m surprised by the sudden change
but only till I lower my eyes
and see her hand clasped firmly in another.

She walks away
and I can see another shadow beside her in the full moonlight…
