Stars of Missed Nights

I want to escape a recurring dream  Before I become itself I want a day that would behave responsibly I want to reach my desk before time
By Rohit Rajvardhan

I want to escape a recurring dream 

Before I become itself

I want a day that would behave responsibly

I want to reach my desk before time


I want to sit for the hours assigned for a day’s salary

I want to get too tired to wish for a tomorrow

 I want to return to my little room 

That seems big with things enough only for survival

At the edge of the day I want to make myself a glass of fine wine

Or anything bittersweet that can help me 

Open the window full of late night stars

I want to sit by the windowsill


I want to wait for you when you’ll knock on my door

I want to open it just like the window

I want you to carry every missed moment that

I could have lived with a girl; I want you to fill my glass again


Sit, talk, laugh, sip, whisper and cry 

I want you to gift me my last drink before you leave

I want you to fill my glass 

With stars of the missed nights.
