ROADS GONE BY

( in joint venture wid my frnd Sid)

Smiles, laughter, joy and the play.
The image of the girl, with that smiling face.
Crushes and heartbreaks, every other day.
All come back to me,Sweet memories as they say.
Like the signboards on the highway.
Roads gone by, not meant to stay.

The childhood fights, the friends for life.
The first drink, those times we spent.
The first love, those promises, kept and unkept.
Like the signboards on the highway.
Roads gone by, not meant to stay.

The gesture of your eyes, the pain in my cries.
That midnight kiss, that first time hitch.
Yes, there was something that your laughter had to say.
Like the signboards on the highway.
Roads gone by, not meant to stay.

Those small small gifts, the after day rifts.
That walk in the rain, the talks we shared.
The way you said, the way I read.
Like the signboards on the highway.
Roads gone by, not meant to stay.

its very touching for the people who could feel the pain of a crush, love and parting. so much of expectations, trampled over in a day. the lines creates a doubt in the readers mind..ARE THEY REAL...
you write your feeling well but can you feel the unfelt pain which lingers in the life...
jugglery with few more words would take you to the heaven....
IT'S SIMPLY SUPERB.
