Been a long time
Been a long time since I heard a genuine laughter.
Been a long time since I saw a mother loving her daughter.
Been a long time since you and I were together.
Been a long time since I closed my eyes and opened to see color.
Been a long time since I smelt a flower.
Been a long time since I danced in the monsoon shower.
Been a long time since I saw love in someone’s eyes.
Been a long time since I found peace in the blue skies.
Been a long time since I’ve prayed without tears in my eyes

This one's so true and real..It's really been a long time I've felt all this...Esp. that it's been a long time I saw love (true love) in someone's eyes...
But you keep rocking girl!
In this poem.. Only the last stanza i have written from personal experience.. Rest were just random feeling..
Been a long time since I found peace in the blue skies.
Since you wrote this from your own, I can only gauge the extent of melancholy it portrays.
To be so overwrought that the Blue Skies don't induce peace, says a lot.
yes.. it was a bad.. bad patch in my life. I hate to admit.. but i tried putting an end to many things.. I should not even go there.
But i have trancended over "it" so peacefully and come out of it alive. I have realised who true friends are.. who are NOT. Perhaps that state of being absolutely miserable was absolutely necessary for self introspection and gauging the depths of relationships..
Thank u once again for your comment. I appreciate it.. really do.
been there (or does one never stop being there, as well as here?)..just couldn't ever have put it as beautifully as u do..
.. n yeah, what would we do without the memories of pain really?
