The things you do to me...

Now the night is here and I am left with my thoughts alone , 
you flash before my eyes , in the way that I have known. 
I sheepishly smile at you while my heart skips a beat, 
it's you I had been waiting for,been longing all day to meet. 
It's our time of the night , and you by me , such a wonderful sight! 
If this was my forever I would want it to be this way , 
with you and I struggling for better ways, for things to say. 
For ,'I love you' possibly cannot sum up, there's so much more to it I swear , 
you send a chill down my spine and you do that without even a glare. 
Things you do to me , if only I could explain, 
you are my sanity and the reason why I am not the same. 
I know I haven't met you but what if I tell you that I have known you like I have known the moon, 
aware of your existence and beauty , knowing that I will reach you soon. 
I have heard you in the quiet of the night , many a time you have whispered in the dim light, 
you have kissed me gently and softly so , have read me close with those eyes of doe, 
we have danced together to many a song both new and old, 
have held each other close enough during those long nights of cold. 
You have held my hand when I stepped back , together we worked over the things we lacked. 
We have had our fights and shed our tears , hand in hand , we overcame all our fears. 
Had laughed so hard till our stomachs ached , had had those burnt cakes we baked. 
Yes , you have been a part of me all this while , every step, every mile. I
have felt your touch in the warmth of the sun , 
have heard you talk when I could hear none. 
I have seen you smile in my reflection each day , 
you came like a cool breeze in the month of may. 
I have lived you each day and will live you forever, if I may. 
For we have been time travellers , both you and I , 
we dwell in each other and that's no lie. 
I know I can't make you stay but I have things to tell , so let me say. 
These few lines don't say much , and I have no other way as such , 
wish I could but let you see , oh the things you do to me , the things you do to me....

Tum

Lambi tanha raaton mein jab yaad ban aate ho tum ,
yun hi karwat badal badal kuch khud mein ro lete hain hum. 
Ba dastoor,khayaalon me, jo dastak de uthte ho tum, 
tumhein khaabon mein tassavur kar , kuch phir se jee lete hain hum. 
Jab din ki roshni mein, kuch dhundhla se jaate ho tum , 
tasveer tumhaari seene se laga, thoda sisak lete hain hum. 
Har kamre se tumhaari khusboo aati hai , 
har lamha mujhe woh chhed jaati hai . 
Un kamron mein baith kabhi, 
dil halka kar lete hain hum. 
Jab ban hansi goonjh uthte ho tum, 
sath tumhaare muskura kar khud mein khush ho lete hain hum.
Is khaalipan mein bhi saath har pal hote ho tum, 
aur isi baat pe thoda khud mein sanwar lete hain hum. 
Har haseen raat tumhaara jaadu jaga jaati hai , 
har unkahi baat mujhe raundhti tadpa jaati hai.
Aaine mein , meri har din ki mulaquaat ho tum , 
mere mausam , mere din raat ho tum. 
Paas ho itna phir bhi kitne door ho tum, 
kal tak toh mere apne the ,aaj jaane kaun ho tum. 
Waqt ne kiya humpe, yeh kaisa haseen sitam, 
saath ho kar bhi jo paas nahin, woh shaqs nikle tum.
