Those Lines - Are They Lines Or Our Fate?

Penned By B D Narayankar

Whenever I pull the sheet 
of the night over me,
the sleep sits in my
eyes wide open
and begins painting 
an image of yours
with the night's ink

Whenever people 
see our hands,
they say
these are nothing 
but mere lines
But I have seen
these lines meeting
each other;
wedded to each other 
with no doubts invited

Whenever I am alone,
without you
I gaze at the sky,
I find this old sky,  
giving something to everyone

I ask all but few drops -
but, however hard I wring
my eyes
not even a single
teardrop falls
