a happy but chained wish

you came to me that day hiding something behind

you wanted to tell but it fitted in words which you could not find,

i guess,

you wanted me to see through 

trust me, i tried 

but the colours were too bright;

the vivid image of your eye stealing face 

when on your back,your little hands clutched it so tight 

but still gentle not to hurt the wish

-the wish- to pick colours from the black and white, 

a wish to listen the deepest of oceans,

-your wish-to make the wishing star -yours-, 

you didn't show me your hands

i heard it in yours tiniest of smiles 

i saw the wish trying to peek from your glowing eyes;

i could only whisper to you -the heights-

 where i stand the present day 

from where i could see all my wishes,i clenched like you 

clinging on a cloud like 

a happy but chained wish...
