Neelkanth - the azure throated

I need no well nor star, for
I've met my draught's rain
Life is not so short that
I won't get to see her again

Her thoughts make me smile
When I talk to her, I soar
World's not as it used to be
Things've changed for sure

And where they are worse
they belong on my score
She's just the way she was
But I'm not myself anymore

Like Icarus I soared high
The warnings I did not heed
And now I wish what I wish
would be the same as she'd

Just like you, O Neelkanth,
I've drunk from life's moat
the most potent of venoms
and I hold it in my throat
