White SOMETHING I LOOK AT-280 BY-SMRUTI RANJAN MOHANTY When you respond My joy knows no bounds Your response makes my day Sends a smile to my arteries and veins It is okay If you do not I have learned to bear with it I know you are too busy Too preoccupied to find time for me I know What does time mean to you How do you value it Don't expect you to spoil it for someone Who hardly matters in your life A nonentity I was Will remain so till I am alive But I feel ecstatic When, from a distance, I see you smiling Your happiness means so much I have forgotten my own long since I often ask myself do I need anything Except for your happiness and well-being? Am I so selfish, is my love a selfish desire It seeks its felicity in your cheer and smile,? From a distance I sense your feelings, sorrow and happiness Though physically we are miles apart I visualise your tears and smile I know how you are But sometimes I doubt my instincts For which I ask how do you feel?
