Whispers in Air

Sometimes everything looks like a stranger

These rooms of questions, flooding with daylight

Sounds, bring proof of a live city

People at door, holding lists of tasks

Voices, tryin to be empathetic after all

But I feel like a stranger to all of these strangers around

Thinking of U I feel so scared

When I close my eyes I can see U clear n bright

But I m afraid I couldnt find U in a crowd

I m afraid U will not recognize me too

We will never be some but strangers to each other

In a crowd or in an empty hall or under an wide open sky 

In between my secret space I whisper

Touch me

Touch my body

Touch my soul

Before I turn to dust

Kiss me 

Kiss my lips 

Kiss my soul

Before my senses r dead

Take me

Take my body

Take my soul

Before they split forever

I know U will never listen to my whisper 

We will remain strangers forever I know

But still I whisper in air

Believing that nothing leaves from universe

One day our dusts will listen n cry an emptiness to my whispers in air
