For the First Time.....!!!

It took sixteen years

For the first time to see you,

Then began the era of me and you!

It took a second,

For the first time, I make my eyes on you.

It took a minute,

For the first time, I shift my eyes from you.

It took an hour,

For the first time I liked you.

It took a day,

For the first time, I thought about you.

It took a night,

For the first time, I dreamt you.

It took a week,

For the second time, I saw you.

It took a month,

For the first time, I made friendship with you.

It took a rainy dusk,

For the first time, I heard the refusal from you.

It took that whole night,

To experience tearless cry for you.

It took the next day,

For the first time, I bought a gift for you.

It took few moments,

To get that present, back from you.

It took a sudden decision,

To break that sweet lady, which I imagined as if you.

It took few days more,

For the first time, I felt a pain of separation from you.

It took a second thought,

To realize that it’s difficult to live without you.

Today our relation is cool,

As today I can talk with you.

As today I can share my thoughts with you,

As today I can seethe sweet smile on you.

As today I can hear the cute voice from you.

But still today I fear to say you,

That I really love you,

That I can’t live without you,

But in this one year,

I can’t remember when I first started loving you….
