P. S

Many a people are
searching for love,
They do not know;
As long as I have
you in my heart-
They will never find it.

Plea

I am slowly fading,
Resuscitate my
Kindle my heart,
Devour my head,
Bewitch my mind,
Possess my dreams,
Give me strength,
Simplify my reality,
On my knees,
Oh! My love,
This last time.

Love Is A Thing Of The Gods

Mortals and immortals-
What separates them?
They share jealousy,
But the ultimate prize is love,
Hate is a mortal thing
And love a thing of the gods,
Love makes us immortal,
While hate kills us slowly.

Fictional Woman

The tears I cried for you,
The tears that gave life to the roses I gave you,
The sorrow you left me,
The happiness you took away,
You have moved on; so have I,
I still talk about you,
In lonely nights-think about you,
Forever, a part of you in me.

Darkness

When I was only a child,
I was not at all a child,
What most heard, I'd seen,
What they fear'd, I'd been,
I had known death-
Her steely breath,

I knew first her pulse,
Before I knew all else
I had lost everything,
Myself the first thing
I had let go of,
Before even all went off-
I was- Darkness,
Devoid and dreamless

Love Speaks Sweetly (Palindrome)

Love speaks sweetly,
“I love all of you,
Heart and Soul,
Beautiful and Bright.”

Everywhere love is,
Love says forever.
Forever says love,
Is love everywhere?

“Bright and Beautiful,
Soul and Heart,
You of all love I”
Sweetly speaks love.

(Now read from the last word
to the first)

My Heart Crashed With The Loudest Din

My heart crashed with the loudest din,
Loving you is the greatest sin,
Because the wages of it is my death,
You made my soul leave the earth,
Only now I see the stage clear,
Your heart has always been its bier,
I crack with such a pain,
Like a land that has never had rain,
But I will go without a fight
For your happiness is my might.

Queen Of Spades, The

When the church bells toll,
I dream I'll tap my feet,
So no one hears the howl
Germinating from my
heartbeat,

I'll await our kiss of unity,
At the end of the aisle,
I'd have waited an eternity,
But it will be worthwhile

We'll count the stars
together-
All the hairs on our heads,
In you my children have a mother,
And I- a queen of spades

The Final Goodbye

My feelings still hold onto you,
Your fingers remove from my grip,
I never learnt to love you
But I love you,
My eyes yes, my heart cannot
Hold back the tears,
Adieu only in this tangible world-
The life of your dead love
Colours still my invisible one-
My fragile smile-
How do I move on, mend this broken
heart when the missing piece is you?

Loud Thoughts

One dream closer,
One wish closer,
One touch closer,
One second closer,
One blink closer,
Who is closer between you and I?

One dream away,
One wish away,
One touch away,
One second away
One blink away,
Who is faraway between you and I?

In laughs and crys,
Highs and lows,
Rights and wrongs,
Light and darkness,
Close and away,
Who loves between you and I?
