Just when you asked me to say some thing, my MSN went on the blink.
And here I am sitting all by myself and I want to say some thing...
So here is a poem.

But right in front of me is a blank wall.
What can I say to a blank wall.
I picture this girl with mirthful eyes and lovely lips...
What can I say...
I see her dancing and bouncing, full of fun and laughter...
She has the grace, she has the wit...
She ofcourse can make any man feel like a twit..
What can I say...
Her tresses dance around her shoulders,swirling down her waist,
As she walks, she makes heads turn...
She stops and looks at you,she knows that you are looking,
You can feel a wave of feelings,
Can one look tell you all about feelings?
What can I say...
She tosses her hair and comes close to you and whispers into your ears...
You can feel a tingle in your spine...
Is this for real????
Her breadth is like a cool breeze, refreshing and tingling...
She brushes her lips and for a moment you hear your heart stop...
She says 'say some thing'
You close your eyes and say -
Let this be a dream, a dream so true, where lovers united
For when they wake up to the realities, they never might
It is a special feeling and let it remain that way...
As you stare at the wall, you know that dreams are never true...
So let what I have to say remain within me,
There is a storm and yet a calm prevails,
There is a feeling and yet a passion builds,
There is a desire and its so hard to control,
This is what I wanted all my life,
And yet its so hard to say...
To say those words that are really true...
which would mean every thing to you...
I wish I could say something...
