you are a big river
wanting to meet only the sea
but have no reservations
on assimilating the small streams
i am a rivulet
just flowing in this season
may dry up tomorrow or next day after
will you let me
be part of you
so that all the vapours in the sky
soak the time
tame the tide
and leave a trail
for some one to follow
who has no faith in future
or past
but has a desire to cast
a shadow of his love
on every step
of this stair
where sages have walked
but afraid of despair
