The poem is based on the feelings of a child who finds love and grows with it only to find it all a dream, transcient and fake. Reality is unveiled and the child who is now grown up realises the futility and imprecision of love.

When I came to know you I was a little child ,
I could see my future and dreams all alive , all awake ,
In your eyes was my sea of faith , the faith so chaste and innocent ,

In the closeness of your touch , the oneness abound ,
I felt so tranquil , which seemed so real yet so fake ,
Your presence was my desire , filled with awe and beauty alike ,
You made me feel the warmth of day , yet numbness covered all so stale ,
I lie like a corpse , unknown , unwanted and redundant ,
Every hour , minute and second , waiting and waiting the aura ,
’tis not late , I found you , reality unveiled , you are lost forever , in the deadness
of my dreams and desire , so true , so lively and vibrant .
