The winds brought the storm brewing in the mountains to me. br Like how she knocked at my door that evening. br A lantern in hand held against the night’s rain. br The bangles in her arms jingled with the thunder outside br And it’s glow that stood against the lightning. br Her kajol smeared eyes that glistened with the rain drops. br That was as deep as the rain clouds. br Her lips that quivered as the winds touched them br That set her robes in frenzy across her face br And made me envy the rain drops that sprayed on her. br But like the rains she wasn’t mine. br She belonged to the winds br That came from the mountains. br That’s when I decided to chase the rains br And I became the rain chaser.
