Will You Be With Me

Will you distract me tonight

When I am about to close my eyes

Me, lying next to the window

Counting the stars in the distant skies

With drooping eyelids

But with sleep a bit far

Thoughts spilled so many..

But dreams yet none ajar

Will you disturb me tonight

When I grope for a hand to hold

My fingers needing to circle the warmth

As I float in nowhere...

An unknown comforting space

Me, oblivious to what's around

As dreams get ready to carve a place

Will you be with me tonight

As I live the night in deep slumber

Dancing with memories

And my heart weaves new stories

Of laughter, togetherness ...

In an irresistible world

Darting away the realities

And when the sun arrives

Yellow haze through my window

As I stretch for another daylight

Will you be with me still...

Lingering from dreams,

As a morning thought.

And then staying with me,

For the rest of the day,

Till another twilight.

Will you be with me yet another night
