Will you walk with me?

All along the road,

They kept saying,

There is no hope,

But with you by my side,


Did I really need any?

Asking you with child like ecstasy,

Will you walk with me?

Was there an answer to that question?

Or was the inevitable really obvious?

Too consumed by logic,

Engrossed with uncertainty,

Budd waiting to flower,

Asking you, was me,

Will you walk with me?

Buzzing like a bee,

You were always the queen bee,

Nectar like, quite soothing was thee,

Your eyes binding me in an unbound spell,

Felt like till eternity, together we shall dwell

The soul buzzing through an unending spree

Will you walk with me?

I tried painting you once,

With patience and spirit aplenty,

Crossed and matched colors,

Matched and crossed colors,

Hoping to capture you on my canvas,

And finally something started taking shape,

Something that could never flee,

It read,

Will you walk with me?

Do I like you?

Do I really like you?

Honestly I don’t know!

But what I do know is,

Your aura doesn’t leave my head,

Breaking through me, trying to flee,

Still asking the same question, is me,

Will you walk with me?

The snob that I am,

Selfishness imprinted on my soul,

Rude and arrogant is thy middle name,

Making it all about me always,

Knowing nothing but the crazy ways,

Still inside one pure voice,

Asking you to make the choice,

Nothing on the face but a glee,

Saying, Will you walk with me?

Take the leap of faith,

Unending shall be the wait,

The hustle inside has to settle,

Oblivious am I, to my mettle?

I can`t control your free will,

And knowing this kills the thrill,

I don’t want to let go,

And I never will,

You will always remain my joyous glee,

An unanswered, Will you walk with me?
