The sleepless nights,

The hookah bars,

Our consciousness on flight,

Seldom we were barred.

We spent each other out

Just in the few hours we got together,

Solace we found

Somewhere in each other.

We loved each other,

But we weren't in love,

There's a difference, man,

That people seldom fathom.

Life is a journey

A tough one too,

You may feel the need to lean on,

Someone other than you.

We often mistake companionship

For the love that everyone seeks,

That mistake is guttural

And doesn't end in peace.

The line between them

Is fine and slim.

A person who can reckon that

Has managed to peel off a film;

In a world full of glamour

He has managed an incredible feat;

He has defeated greed and need,

He has made himself honorable,

Because he has found an important line of separation,

And taken one crucial step towards

The ever desirable imperfect perfection.
