This is not the only line for you
But I can write it many ways.
When tomorrow is in time's womb
I dream of you being farther away.
This is not only a nightmare for me
But thousands of stings pierce into my spine.
When I see roses in my garden fading away
I'm afraid to hope for you being farther away.
This is not only a grey day for me
Wish, there are not many in stores.
When the shady picture hangs on today's horizon
I dearly wait for you being farther away.
This is not only a silver line for me
Hope, it is followed by shower of solaces.
When I trace your foot-steps in my lawn
I find closure of you being farther away.

Dear Professor Mohanty,
Thanks a lot for the mail.
I read your poem "For You" on the same day you wrote me. I liked it for
its simplicity. For me simplicity is like purity.
