The nights I laughed and cherished with my gifts
The nights I cried secretly on the soft pillow beneath my head
You were there.
I had broken your idol, blaming you for every harshness of childhood I remember
I then asked for forgiveness, for I learnt everything was a test
You are my teacher.
I had confided in you, said you everything secret
You replied through dreams, rare and precious
You are the best listener.
I had become protective of you,
Yet I broke the promises I made, making you wait longer.
You wait for when I and You will become Us.
It is a beautiful journey, of hopes and lessons
When I had been victorious, you were my charioteer.
You are my companion forever.
It's a beautiful journey, of griefs and mistakes
When I had lost, you were my pillar.
You are my love forever.
My guardian, my friend
My love, my sibling
Sometimes my child, my own creation
And I delve in you.
Thanks for being with me, My Friend,
For being in me, around me
Everywhere.
