clink your glass, shake a leg,
then ask for another peg...
drown yourself into the mood,
dig deep into the wine & food...
tonight is just for all to see,
so near and yet so far from me...
the party ends and silence creeps,
we stay awake as the whole world sleeps...
reminiscing of the love long gone,
thinking of our future forlorn...
wine on breath, tear brimmed eyes,
counting time and hollow sighs...
tomorrow is another day,
another dance, another sway...
fooling the world is just a game,
we gotta play for the prize & fame...
together we two strangers are,
so near and still so far...
each living a separate life,
yet to the world, as man and wife!!

with al due respect to the institution of marriage, hearing of situations like these makes me sometimes wonder about the validity of it all..
