Who are you?

Tell me darling, who are you?
With those eyes so ocean-blue
You look at me and see right through
Tell me darling, who are you?

Who are you, what's your name?
Do you really feel the same?
If you share my joy and shame,
Who are you?

You look so familiar
And you know that I'm afraid
I didn't try to tell ya
But you heard what I never said,
That I am scared.

Tell me stranger, who are you?
I don't think I ever knew
So please tell me, tell me true
Perfect stranger, who are you?

Who are you, how'd you know
That I'll break if I'm let go?
You still hold me tightly, so
Who are you?

  1. `Dear Anna,
    Thank you for your comment. And I don't think there's anything whorish when someone post the URL of their blog along with their comments. I don't know about others, but as for me it became easier to jump into your blog.
    Inside your blog, with an impulsive pull I clicked on this poem of yours and I liked it. I will not be able to check all of your blog in one day, for you know everone of us have " some fish to fry " every now and then. But I assure you to visit your blog to everynow and then, when ever time permits me.
    So, here is my comment to this beautiful poem of yours. I don't know whether it'll be as poetic as yours, nevertheless here it is:

    I am....... I am... I am....
    I am the formless, the emptiness, the nameless that can encapsulate you in my arms and take you to
    timelessness, deathlessness where you encounter eternity
    Don't you recognise me dear.....
    For I have known you since so long...
    Since the time that surpasses the physical realms
    Do you want my name?
    Then Call me what you want to....
    For what's there in a name?
    I saw a bird perched in a tree with his beloved...
    They had no names.. and they were so much dissolved into one another....
    Silence was what they spake....
    Yet the silence told all, what words fail to tell
    And in total harmony they were....
    I could see the aura of love around them....

    Yes, you are right when you say that I look so familiar
    I am glad that you have recognized me
    I have traveresed a million miles to meet you again..
    And yet you say you're afraid!
    Why this fear dear?
    Let go off all virtual bondage...
    For they exist not.....
    & I am always there to encapsulate you in my arms and take you to
    timelessness, deathlessness where you encounter eternity
    Love,
    CoolDeep
