Colours.

We are a mystery, just like stars which people from afar can only see. We are out of reach, flying at our own speeds, bumping into one another constantly. We are meant to be, heroes of love defying gravity, light up the darkest of sea. Look how the winds have changed, look out for the tides unchained, beware of the monsters untamed, look at this new world caged, and then look back at us, it's been years but we are still unchanged. Our hands are still intertwined, our hearts still so connected, beating at the same rhythm, causing eyes to tear off from the bright screens and raise at us soaring across the open sky. Look how imperfectly we fit in.

We may look like freaks from up there, but there's no going back to the so-called life we were so used to. It feels great up here, with the pulchritudinous scenery, the setting sun making a golden contrast in the light blue sky, and among all this perfectness, your breath taking beauty crowns it all. I look down at our hands and smile, days back we would be holding our mobile phones and texting each other goodbye, but right now, it felt as if time stopped by, making us eternal.

And before we got back into our shells, before we wear our skins again, let us sit back for a while and enjoy the still time, talk about the things we like. It happens that mine has always been you, ever since I saw you dancing to your own tunes, on songs people were never used to. Mine's always been the way you smile, the sound of your laughter, the way your eyes light up with a gleam of shear joy, the way they water when you fight back the tears and the urge to cry surface out, the way our bodies respond so perfectly to each other's touches, the way we always work out these grudges, and make this whole world seem divine.

I want to protect you, shelter you from the harshness of the world. I want you to be the way you've always been, how I've always known you, an ever-glowing rainbow in the grayness of the world. I want to be the one to make you smile and laugh your heart out, your wings so you can reach what you're destined. I want to  be the one you look up to when all seems to fade away with time, when your spirit is down. I want you to be what you've always been to this heart of mine.
