The tree asked the breeze
Do you ever miss me -
Leaving a million sights aside
Why caress my leaves?
I wait for you
through broad daylight
And through countless moments
of sleepless nights.
But you never come
Never tell me why
Never wipe my tears
Never sit by my side.
The breeze heavily heaved,
A sigh of relief.
Many come to you for respite -
From their overwhelming grief.
Under your shelter
They rest lazily.
And in your shadow, go
Into slumbers deep.
I look upon you
from faraway skies
Hoping against hope
You'd call for me!
That you'd look my way
That you'd see my longing.
But I see you happy
Amidst your circle of being.
So, I seldom come.
When I do, I tread softly.
For I know if I wake you -
I won't be able to leave!
