The Viewfinder

Through the viewfinder,

Your smile

Had shined brighter,

Than the halo

Which follows

Your every step.

 

I smiled too

Because

You’re beautiful

And I lingered,

To seize

Your beauty.

 

A moment of infinity

Captured;

A sense of realisation,

Clicked.

 

Your picture-

No;

Your whole being

Speaks a thousand words,

But I was left

Speechless

In your aura.

 

 

And from the longing

Reflected in your eyes,

I saw

And I understood.

 

You had not smiled

For the camera;

You had

Only

Smiled

For

 

Me.
