Strand That Held Back

Long back, I would have been gone,
With no traces of me except in few hearts.
Every bit of me mixed with dust and earth,
Gone like the unseasonal rain;
It was destined for me to be in heaven.

A thread of love swirled around my heart
Tied and captured, binding me here!
I still wish to fly to nowhere but above sky,
But the single strand of love
Binds me to this worldly lies.
