Excerpt
My long lost friend
On a railway station
Bustling with activities
passengers, trains
noise and chaos
I stood helpless
Like a newly hatched
motherless chicken
Trying to feel
my way through
I saw you
A lonely girl
dressed in blue
with blue eyes
hair like gold
Our eyes met
We needed no introduction
We were long lost friends
who had never met before
We boarded the train
and started to talk
or rightly said
you started to talk
I just watched you
talking eagerly
like an innocent little girl
A wild stream
flowing noisily
down the hill
Suddenly your station arrived
You smiled and
disembarked silently
Train started to move
I saw you again
A lonely girl in blue
walking like an angel
My long lost friend
I'll never lose you
