~ ARE YOU THE SIGH THAT ESCAPED FROM MY LIPS by Renu
Are you the sigh that escaped from my lips
Are you the moon that glimmers and then is eclipsed
Are you the flame that lit a fire in my heart
Are you my shadow which is with me, yet is apart
Are you the dew glistening in the verdant lawn
enveloping my heart, dark night foregone
Are you the flower filling the night with its perfume
receding in oblivion when the day blooms
Are you the wave that engulfs without warning
Are you the mist in the cold winter morning
that kissed disappearing with the sun out bright
Are you a dream that I dreamed last night
Are you the sunlight on which my dreams dance
playing havoc with their glimmer, ready to prance
Are you a storm that raged and pried
into my soul and then like a hurricane, died
Are you the drops of rain nourishing my mind
cleansing my spirit leaving it enshrined
Are you the moment that takes the soul
from darkness to light, making you whole
Whatever it is, I will continue in my quest
For love, till I find it, will not rest
Coz love is life, love is breath
