Dreams and Destinations

This one's for you, Smriti..

Was it the ambience of the cool night air?

Or the brush of our skins,

Or the flair of fervour in our hair?

Was it the sound of the engine and wheels

Or simply our voices resonating with each other

- Like melodies in perfect harmony.

We could hear the drumming of our heartbeats 

as we drove further down the street

- The street that would lead us to roadways we knew naught of; 

And knew naught the places they'd open on to;

But we kept going on,

Singing our songs;

For one night, we wanted something to believe in..
