dim blue light...

As the darkness is occasionally disturbed by the lights of oncoming vehicles,
I yearn to see if you will smile,
as the bus eats away the miles to our destination swiftly,
I wonder if you would be mine,
there is only a dim blue light between us girl.

Brightly lit temples we pass,
and there is a soft drizzle on the glass,
the breeze from the open window blows your hair towards me,
and I wait to see your face in the glow of your cell phone,
there is only a dim blue light between us girl.

Sleep eludes me even as everyone else is fast asleep,
having seen you smile once, I want to see it again.
I watch you as you stare out dreamily from the frosted windows,
as you try to breathe in the smell of wet earth through your tiny little nose.
There is only a dim blue light between us girl.

There is a slow song playing in my head all the while
and I'm torn between my desires of reaching home early
being beside you forever.
As you fiddle with your bangle and steal innocent glances,
I know you too are thankful for this dim blue light between us girl...
