Between You And Me

Between you and me

there exists many barriers

both visible and invisible.

Between you and me

there exists heartaches

and memories of stolen kisses too.

Between you and me

there exists the agony

of a longing to hold and be held.

Between you and me

there exists many abandoned

dreams that refuse to fade away.

Between you and me

there exists the anguish

of scarlet passions seeking relief.

Still between you and me

there is a reluctance to transcend

artificial restrictions and social mores.

Yes! Between you and me dear

a wry smile across empty spaces

is all we can afford today.

So within you and I dear

let our yesterdays compete to cry out

the agonies of their silent desires!
