Stretch Out My Hand… Poem by Abhijit Surve

I stretch out my hand but I cannot touch,
Moment I try hard, it escapes my clutch..
Feeling the fragrance of a rose as such,
On the face of an angel who I love so much..

How beautiful it looks jovial down there,
I want to let her know how much i care..
Can't be close to her and it's just not fair,
This distance between us is too hard to bare..

I always feel your spirit flying all around,
Still my hands find it difficult to hound..
Your glittering eyes show something unfound,
Your whispering lips speak something unbound..

You lay on a pedestal just out of my reach,
Wall that you've built is so hard to breach..
Time and again some words that you preach,
Eat through my heart and my tears they leach..

Come and feel the purity of my love to be,
Don't hide yourself raise your head to see..
Magnificent clouds of glory surrounding me,
Come rest on my shoulders to find your glee..

Close your eyes and take one small look above,
You'll See a shadow showering you with some love..
Just for you to hold and in return you can shove,
Your heart, which will fly like a snow white turtle dove..
