HOLD MY HAND AND WALK FOR A WHILE

Seems like it hadn't been a long time we met,
Your eyes spoke a lot,
Always saw something different in them,
What?? Can't name it exactly. But I liked it.
May be because I had the same in mine.

We talked, we shared and we laughed,
I was about to leave when you stopped me
and said,"Listen, let's talk for a while,
Hold my hand and walk for a while."

It's not like we hadn't talked before,
But this time it was different,
It were not the books, not the friends, not the work,
It was you, it was me and it was 'US' ,
And else that followed was just a part of it (us).

After walking some miles, I stopped,
And was about to ask for something,
When you just stopped me and said,
" Let's feel this moment for a while,
Hold my hand and walk for a while."

We had celebrated great moments together,
We fell, we stood, we supported and we Loved,
And without any complaints or demands we kept walking together.

At a point you stopped me and asked me to look back and said,
"How far had we come together !!"
You told that you had judged the question that aroused in my eyes at that time,
"Will you be there forever ??" Yes this was the question.
You avoided. 
Not because you were scared of committment,
But because you din't want to spoil it up with a lot of expectations and promises.

Today, standing here with you,
I have learnt a lot,
"Expectations are what ruin a relationship.
Without them relationships and life are much easier."

So, instead of asking any promise from you,
Today, I just want to say,
"Let's live for a while,
 Hold my hand and walk for a while."
