Restless Poem by Arunesh Goswami

My heart is beating fast
Like the wild wind blowing
And though you humbly lie beside me
I don’t wait to hear the words you are saying.
The moon in the sky is full and red
The twilight is holy
Ye me is restless and so is sad
Though you stay nigh, I cant wait to see,
The ripples with each other make love
The clouds and the moonlit happily playing
The mysterious moves of the heaven above
And the lovely way you are smiling.
I turn aside from you my friend
And walk a lonely road till again I find you,
My dear this heart doesn’t have a plan
I don’t know to rein it, I’ve no clue.
But it loves you and for you it sings
In the hour when you are afar
For you it cries deep within
And twinkles like a star.
