You Are Not My Friend Poem by Arun Maji

There is a sky in secret corner of my heart,
You fly there
With your wings wide open.
There is a garden in secret land of my soul,
You sing there
Song of a destiny to be embraced.

Why?
Is it because you are just my friend?
No. Never.

Awake or dreaming
You are always with me.
Your face smiling,
Lips whispering,
Eyes shining.

Why? Why all this happens?
Is it because you are just my friend?
No. You are not my friend.
You never would be.

You are more than that.
More than I could ever imagine.
