Longing days
Shrutasree Chattopadhyay
It's been a long time...
Long in a sense of time..
Long in a sense of feelings.. been a long like light-year away,
The faces I used to see,
Those smiles that lifted my heart
It's been awfully long
That I smelled the air of freedom
All been fades into a battle of existence..
It's been a long time
that I have smiled carelessly,
Counting my hours and seconds
It's natural now, it's been that way
Still heart grows fonder of the memories,
That is why I am looking outside
To the future of colour and freedom
It's been long, but never lost, those smiles
I am looking , just waiting to reach out
And touch what was once mine...!!
