In The Shade of Sun

I came to you in a shade of orange
And you to me, in a shade of sun
Just a cursory glance
And my heart was won
We walked and smiled
Beguiled and fairytaled
And once the evening sprawled in our eyes
Our space traced its miles for years and years

But how I thank God
Within his pod of time we trod
He brought one to the other
When the seeking was sought

With a little push
Through the invisible thickness of chats and mails
And stale pseudonyms stashed in cyberspace cracks
Through an ancient web, and a network of answers to questions
Of wheres and whys and hows
Questions… questions…
Questions that erased impossibilities into oblivion
Questions that surfaced a sweet memory
Questions that navigated you to my direction
Questions that you ask while looking through lost and found

And you found…

In my stream of dreams
I never would have thought
That beam of smile I held for awhile
In a mere inch-long sticker print
Would scale the earth
To see the birth of unsullied love

Our eyes met again
Fresh
With stories rewritten on the skin of our faces
Beautiful anyhow
How you changed
Evolved
Bloomed from that point in time
Immortalized on a sticker and hugged between the leaves of your book
But your look shook me and my heart was won

Now I come to you in a shade of redness so deep
And you to me, still in the shade of sun
