Eternal Nights

Again that night he returned to the place,

where he could once again find solace, 

again that night he returned to the person,

with eyes as warm as the first rays of the morning sun, 

he simpered as he stood before her, 

for he could once again taste what felt like eternal serenity,

for she was with him, 

he forgot to ask for her name as usual,

for he was lost in her eyes and she in his, 

nights, months and years passed,

they kept meeting every night,

sat utterly lost in each other,

 eluding the despotic reality,

when the night came to an end,

he was forced to bid her adieu,

so close to being one with each other for all time to come, 

yet what felt like a one-shot chance that kept slipping away, 

every night they would come together only to part ways,

striving in vain to be together,

but this time it felt different, 

he was resolute,

as he held on with all his might,

his strength began to wither,

his chest tightened and panting heavily,

he felt gelid and was sweating all over,

he swooned and his breath came to a standstill,

the night felt different,

for this time when he woke up,

he woke up embosomed in her arms,

this time he woke up with a smile as warm as her eyes,

for he knew that time could no more do them apart

Genius, eh?

Now allow me to blow you away. You may "like" to believe that this is just another love poetry. That's what we like to call a conjecture. Now I'm gonna give it all away. This is actually the story of a guy who being unable to find peace and love in the real world turned towards the world of dreams, in search of quietude. There he met a woman whose face he never saw before yet felt like it was someone he always knew. They spent time, side by side, hand in hand and fell in love. He found an entire world within her, a world he always longed for. But everyday when he woke up, they would be torn apart. He wanted to be with her more than anything, and the pain of separation slowly took its toll on his health. And one such night, his instincts whispered to him, that today is the day when they'll finally unite. He felt surprisingly better that night. He struggled in his sleep, suffered a cardiac arrest and peacefully passed away in his sleep and was finally and truly one with his love.     

Now go, give it a read.
