A Gazillion Miles Away

When I sat that night, alone in my room

I stared out of the window, into the dark.

My eyes beheld the stars, shining faintly,

But My mind went back to you.

I remember your laugh, your eyes and your lips,

Your soft hands and their feel on mine.

I remember the time you stood up for me,

When even I had left my side,

I remember you crying, hugging me close,

To make sure that I was with you, as you were for me.

I remember our closeness, the time and its stillness.

I remember we parting, tears everywhere.

Today I am here, You- I don't know where.

But as I sit, remembering you, I know

You must be too, thinking of me,

somewhere in this world,

A gazillion mile away.
