Where are you Alisha?

Guys! As many of you might know i had been on a vacation back home for a month. From there i digged up my old collection of short notes, stories and some poems. I had this habit of penning something at the back of my notebook in classroom or some old diaries. Basically went through a few of them and this one caught my eye, dated August 21, 2000. Its titled 'Where are you Alisha?' written around a story i heard from my friend. Somehow i had tried to make a poem out of it...still i feel a gem from my old collection.

Poem goes out like this,

Where are you Alisha?

Where did i see her?
was that in the train or at the theater..
Gosh! for gods sake, i cant remember
Silver bangles,shiny skin, strong perfume
a 5 sec pause.....

you were there right in front of me

nothing said nothing heard

though our eyes kinda glued

somebody yelled out aloud Alisha!

with a giggle she walked past me

and thats the last sight of her

as if i adorned a blinker

but still can't remember...

Where the heck i saw her?

a burqa clad girl she was
all i could see were those eyes
those perfectly kajal-ed deep black eyes..
everyday i wake up from my slumber

and hope to meet her somewhere

till then am standing astrayed

Alisha, when will i meet her?
