Catharsis

And the 23rd August is here

Bringing memories of you in my mind

Most, sweet and fond and some the painful kind

You, in good health and spirits, this note to find

Wishing you a Happy Birthday!!

Stretching my arms and floating in pools of desire, I am

Crumbling, yet hoping to find "the one", I am

Dreading the unknown, expecting the unexpected, I am

Blind-folded, treading an uncharted path, I am

Wishing you a Joyous Birthday!!

Somedays I wish to hear you, be near you

A day-dream it is, I know, when I get a cue

Moments once treasured, now a festering scar

I so wish my burning wounds were only a scar

Wishing you a Happy, Happy Birthday!!

To bring you the sense of contentment and fulfilment, this Birthday!!

To make you regain the trust once lost, this Birthday!!

May it bring you your soul-mate, this Birthday!!
