Millions of pieces of severed heart
in the aftermath of several heartbreaks
delicately carried under
this moonlit sky
blanketed under beautifully crafted
deceitful smiles
carrying an ocean of pain
in those dew dropped
eyes welled with unshed tears

Departure giving meaning to the absence
absence an emotion that it is,
just is felt, until departure tags along,
for absence submits into entropy
and disintegration follows.
Holding on to that pain, leading to
letting the heart decay a little
every single moment of your existence
giving pieces of yourself
to a black hole, consuming you.
So when the time comes,
and a soul departs
you are gifted with a decision to make
either turning to the left,
where nothing is right
or to dream of the right,
where they never left.
cherishing their memories,
and remembering them
for their deeds noble and tender
is a tribute best could you render,

Don’t you fret, for I’m here
And I’ll always be here,
to let you know, that you’re loved
showing how my world revolves around
the fulcrum, that you are
Yes, I will be here
for you to know, that
no matter the burden
big or small,
you’ll always find me right beside you
walking together, even when the path is
brutal, and life throws vexed questions.
and when the nights get longer
and the darkness surrounds you,
when the sleep, deceives you
rendering restlessness and anxiety
i’ll be right there to hold you
to sing you to sleep
and comfort you, with my embrace
telling you how, we will get through it
For the pain and agony
just like the smile and laughter
remember we are shared partners
through the thick and through the thin
and in sickness and in health,
for my weary mind, never leaves your side
even when distance puts us aside
you don’t have to be alone,
cause I’d always stretch my hand
for you to hold it, for there is nothing
in the world that will change the fact
that for you,
i’ll travel every hard and aching mile, and
the fire of love isn’t ever gonna burn and fade
So just leave your pain and worry aside
hold me tight,
cause I’m never gonna leave your side
holding you till the sun shine brights
from near, or from far I’ll be there
to look for the thoughts in which you are.

He was stuck in a loop, an uncontrollable need to just keep on running away from all possible circumstance & every possible chance of vulnerability, running from one relationship to another, one person to another, one target to another, one thought to another.
And then on one fine morning she happened, she entered the room with a bright wide smile, & coloured the grey white life, time stopped, eyes met, hearts sang the same song & every piece fell in place.
She grew like a sunflower of the new bright light, but this time the sun ☀️ Came down to the flower, for like forever.
He was the sunshine that reflected on her face making it glow and bling, he was the colour on her skin, making her beautiful, he was the reason her smile was wide and bright, for every single time she felt at bliss, looking into his eyes.
His love was a canvas, so pure and white, where she painted it red with the intensity of their love, and created a painting for them to protect and cherish till the end of time.
He became the light she needed to traverse the dark corners of her heart, the blanket that protected her from the cold winds of time, a listening ear and a giving heart, he was everything she could have wished for.
Alone they were letters scattered randomly on the page, together they became a poetry.
“There are days when someone, tells you how special you are to them and it becomes melodious, today was one such day, and I thought this would be a better way to reply and reciprocate the emotions. This is a collaboration, and a little introduction of the words of the one, to whom all my poetry is dedicated.”

The moments spent with you,
had been nothing short of undeniable truth,
Extreme emotions rushing through the blood,
those were the moments of pure pleasure,
also, moments of pure pain,
there were times when there was hurt beyond measures,
sleepless nights, with endless tears soaking the pillow
yet there were moments with you,
of love beyond treasure,
smiles reaching the eyes,
testimony of real happiness.
The moments spent with each other,
we’ve shared together, all these years,
from the tiffs to the reconciling,
growing together, in those stolen moments
creating the love, that’s is purely honest
the love, that is meant to sustain,
for the years to come, eternally.

Today, tomorrow and for years to come,
I’ll walk the paths with you,
touching the air around, that no one can see,
and when the journey gets difficult,
for the roadblocks gets rough,
when the efforts invested appears in vain,
I’ll hum your favourite song,
walking along, holding your hand,
adorning the smile, comforting you,
one step at a time, to end this journey,
with one thing certain,
my hands in yours, and my steps besides yours,
welcoming the rising sun, together.
on the other side of the night.

When I am scared,
I close my eyes,
to look into your eyes
and i see hope.
hope of reaching to the brighter side
when all this darkness end.
When the brain gives up,
my heart is warmed
by those sparkling eyes,
which speaks to me of the strength,
the strength, i need, to traverse in the times of lone-battles
and that’s when I realise, the struggle might be lonely
but i’m not,
with those eyes shining
and lips smiling,
always having a companion beside me
just a blink away.

I wish to write letters to you,
just to know how are you,
just to pour my emotions on that paper,
you know, its been so long that I’ve heard your smile,
reaching to your eyes, making them twinkle.
It feels times have past, feeling your warmth on my skin
tucking me to sleep, where i lay sleepless in the embrace of darkness now.
Months have passed and times have rushed, through the normal pace
yet, my world has stopped, where we were together.
Yes, I wish to write you letters, drenched with feelings
and longings of my heart.
The paper will touch your skin, just like it had touched mine,
and when you decide to write me back,
i’ll find solace in the thought of being closer to you
holding it close to my heart.

I have been subjected to denial a million times.
I have been said ‘no’ many times by many people.
But I want to see, what happens if I don’t give up.
I do have something. I exceedingly believe in, it makes me want to just smile and pull my act together, letting ‘them’ watch me.
I have learnt to take rejections as motivation, converting them into strength.
I have learnt to secure myself in my own being, for they can only defeat me when i’m insecure.
I’ve learnt that ‘my spot’ is already reserved, and I just need to keep working, keep moving, to reach there and fill it, instead of worrying about, it being taken away from me.
I’m not weakness, I’m strength. I’m unstoppable.
And I certainly ‘refuse to give up’
not just yet, not ever.

To me, loving you
Is the way to view the world
And express my perspective.
To me, loving you
is that moment,
When you feel you are in a parallel universe
Free from every weight that holds you down.
To me, loving you
Is looking at life from a blind man’s eye
Because he understands, what he can’t see.
To me, loving you
Is a feeling you get, looking at a child’s smiling face
Dripping with innocence, free from treachery.
To me, loving you
Is like the sunrise, beginning the day
With a new found hope brightening the soul.
To me, loving you
Is like a new discovery every day
Understanding the unknown
To me, loving you
Is about feeling good
With every little thing you have in your life to be grateful for.
To me, loving you
Is knowing, that contradictory views are better than betrayal
Teaching me that cold words doesn’t always mean ill-intent.
To me, loving you
Is comfort, just like the warmth of an overdue hug
Embracing you, and making you feel loved.
To me, loving you
Is company, that never leaves you alone
Becoming your strength at all times.
To me, loving you
Is knowledge, of experiences of others around
Inspiring you, to make a beautiful story of your own.
To me, loving you
Is the melody in the music you love
Touching you indefinitely at all the right wounds and healing.
To me, loving you
Is revelation, of the reasons of unexpected smiles
That brings the satisfaction in your heart making you contend.
To me, loving you
Is the view of tiny drops of dew settled on a flower on a winter morning
Bringing happiness to your heart and beauty to your eyes.
To me, loving you
Is dreaming, with your eyes open
Filling your heart with a passion to fulfil what is seen.
To me, loving you
is all of this and much more
Balancing me to feel better, understand better and ultimately, be better.
