There she was sleeping .. there I was watching her in slumber ...

Together .. yet far spaced ...

So much peace on her face .... Oblivious to the turmoils in my mind ...

Peace and turmoil ..... Sanguinity and typhoon .. all together and not a wink to seperate

She was dreaming .. so was I ....

One in faraway with the sandman ... one in reality, all alone .. watching, cogitating ...

Two dreams .. two illusions ... both ready to fade off once the sleep is over ....

Still she slept .. tired and bereft of sleep .. resting her eyes .. preparing herself for the new day ...

Still I watched ... tired and bereft of sleep.... watching her .... no new day to look forth ...

Watching , cherishing each moment ...eyes paining ... yet ... cherishing .. dont want to close them lest any moment is lost ...

Dawn arrives .... with birds chirping .... Looking out of the window .. seeing it arrive ...

Was it dawn ?.. or was it reality that dawned ? ..

Both wake .. .... going back to the humdrum ....

One happy .... One sad !!
