I wish you could be the light that lingers in my heart
The golden ray that would give me warmth.
The dearest dream my soul treasures
I wish were you......that would linger within me always
And be my light during the lightless days.
The slightest hope that you will be near
I wish were you as it never leaves me.
Tears that my eyes cry for you
I wish were you.......those will always remain in my eyes
Like the glistening stars that sparkle with the sighs for you.
If you were all these
You could remain in me with ease.
Even if you were not all these
I'll not let you cease
Your existence from me.
But if I were the sky I would hold you in my vastness
And people would say, "vast sky that is inseparable from the feeling of vastness".
If I were the night I would hold your hands
While ending myself and give you a new start,
So that people would see when night holds the hands of day
There takes birth the golden ray
That adorns earth.

Wow....
If you were all these
You could remain in me with ease.
Even if you were not all these
I'll not let you cease
Your existence from me.

Instead of one you've given many, I'd prefer to think you titled this, If you were the light, it represents every item of importance and is very apt when you say, "
The dearest dream my soul treasures
I wish were you......that would linger within me always and be my light during the lightless days."
Good effort indeed.
