THE THREE MINUTE WALK

There is so much I could have told you,
In the walk through the dusty lanes,
Amongst the cattle and the cacophonic cars,
A sense of urgency in despair.

If only life was not so fast,
If only I had time in hand,
If only it was divine’s plan,
Could I still have told you what I wanted to?

In your sparkling eyes I found,
A thousand tales yearning to be shared,
Myriads of questions yet to be answered,
And yet I chose to remain aloof,
For it was just a three minute walk.
