Run to you

This is one poem I really love.. coz it was really heartfelt... dedicated to a dear friend.
But if I'd write it today I'd probably call it something else.. coz he equations hav changed

I lay here today... thinking of the times past...
Thinking of the day we met... boy!! Time does fly fast...

I was alone then... With no one to talk
Awkward and lonely... I felt like a gawk

One day I heard laughter...
Ringing in my ears long after.

I yearned to know who it belonged to,
...surprised to know it was you.

I wondered if I ever saw you before...
Well, I was never the kind that would explore

I wished I could laugh like you
Wished, my smile would be as genuine and true.

For once I knew someone... Whom I really did not know…
But whose smile made my happiness grow...

You sat there one day smiling at me
'Twas a very sweet smile ... I have to agree

I thought I’d speak to you just to bide time
For once I spoke to someone forgetting who I am

I thought you were just an acquaintance...
Never thought we could become friends


Now I know, I know it's true…
When I feel down, when I feel blue …
When problems are many, smiles are few
My dear friend I knew... I could RUN TO YOU
