Your bed, my desire
Your embrace, lighting fire.

Your eyes, my gaze
Setting our bodies ablaze.

Your love, I relinquish
Your touch, my only wish.

My first bicycle
It didn't run on wheels,
But my father's enthusiasm
Who'd push it from behind

Soon I moved forward
On my own,
He watched from a distance,
Until I was hard to find.

I couldn't look back
But I knew,
Whenever I'd fall
He would come around.

-

I was struggling
With my emotions all over the place
Trying to cope up with grace
But just then to make it worse
You come asking with that cute face
How are you.. ??
Not seen you in so many days...?

What am I supposed to tell you
You know me better than I do,
I can't lie and can't even say the truth,
There's nothing I can say impromptu,
You're the shoulder I would lean on,
And snap! all problems would be gone!
But I'm not that shoulder for you,
And it's not even a wrong thing to do...

I'll smile and shrug it away,
Make you believe it's all okay,
You're not the hand who will pick me,
But I'll always be here when you need me..

-

Sometimes it takes
just one human touch
To pause everything in a chaos.
It doesn't change time
But for a moment time stops.

-

After long days of silence,
It's the falling raindrops in my balcony,
That came as a melodious visitor,
Ending my melancholy

It's like the very nature,
That confined us inside,
Is missing us too even if little,
And wants to make up with this tide.

I let it drench me in love,
With its tiny cold drops,
Touching my dry skin,
But reaching my core.

The voids have been filled,
By these heavy rains,
This is the closest we have been,
In a long time of pain.

-

Maybe I don't love
myself enough
To stop myself
From loving you.

-

You decided to grow inside me,
Faster than any feeling
Even before I could fathom it
You were rolling and kicking.

You grew, I changed,
Every curve that I gained,
Faded away my own memory of myself
With you I will be born again.

You breathe, I sigh
Your kicks propel me to a high,
In the end, its not the struggles
I wanna remember only ur smile.

Forgive me, if I cry
It's a feeling that's undefined,
To be able to hold you inside
And also waiting to
hold you the first time..

-

My hatred for you
Makes me feel
way more powerful
Than your love ever did.

-

Thanks for teaching me,
How few bright moments
Keep Lighting up the dark corners
of your life even after years.

Thanks for letting me know
There can be a memory
When stumbled upon, can wipe out
All your tears.

Thanks for showing me,
Magic exists
Because you were once real, tangible
And still somewhere near.

-

Now that you've said
what
I wanted to hear.
It's easier for me,
to
lie to myself.
