Shashi Gupta

The darkness and the shadows of the night do not frighten me
Its the glare of the day, that im afraid of
When unwanted inquisitive eyes 
Bore into my soul.


Dreams take wings and
Im in a land of dark forests and glades
Soft nosed rabbits and deer my companions
As i skip my way into the inky night.

Strains of music lure me on
And into paradise i venture deep
Far fron the eyes that frighten me so
I rest on a bed of sweet smelling soft grass.

I see you coming, my soul mate of yore
Long have i waited and wanted you so
The glow that you walk in
Brightens my soul, and im yours for evermore.
