Blind Alleys
written by: Gauri Dixit
Where eyes don’t speak and lips don’t lie
In the skies of the blind dreams don’t die
I see not yet I see your words and the faint sigh
Loud enough to drown your goodbye
There will be a time similar to this now
When we will stand on the opposite banks and bow
Distance doesn’t seem to bother the blind somehow
We cross oceans and rivers riding on the vows
Separation is a myth when togetherness is similar to a long distance call
You make the most of it then by giving it your all
Better than wasting time trying reaching for him and hitting the wall
Sing louder, sing clearer, sing truer standing tall
