21/F/India An experiencer who falls into the love of garden called EMOTIONS. / Contains prose, wanting to pour my feelings where they ought to be.
You've thrown me tantrums. You've thrown me onto needles. You've thrown me into fire. And suddenly you cared for me once -- I melted and bent for you to stay like that. Now again, you're back with your tantrums I can't do anything but knit my love for you from the needles you've thrown at me along with the fire.

From Needles, Love
I saw many men come into my house every day, leaving only after they were pleased. My job was the poison I carried within me for years. Yet I always waited for you. Your presence drew me. You always flew away like a bird after the food was served. I questioned myself -- what made you remain at your place after visiting me. So I watched from afar and discovered that you had someone else. It broke me and cracked the love I carried for you. I never wanted to risk your life by giving you my love, which was far more poisonous. I accepted my fate and, life laughed at me as I danced at your wedding. The same poison killed me the following night, along with my love for you. And they say, "Unrequited love always remains untold".

Unrequited Venom
Never raised my voice, to be there for you. Never begged you to love me. Never said every word that came from my heart. Never expected to return my love. Never told that I liked your presence. Never etched your name on the walls. Never painted you on my canvas. Never wrote you a poem named after you. Here, "never" is nowhere to be believed. All are lies. Now read it again without the word "never".

Never / Always
I saw you with him. His hands roamed all over you. Every nook and corner where I couldn't reach. His hands slid into your body graciously, even I was jealous of him. There, I stood like a glass slab, transparent to everything even though it is heart-wrenching to see you receiving such a pleasure from him but never from me. Every noise escaped from your mouth made me realize all my words were never meant for you.

Where I couldn't reach
Even in the galaxy, I expect the rain to fall upon. Even in the barren land, I expect the garden to grow. Even in the vacuum, I expect the music to reach you. Even in the distance, I expect you to see me secretly. That's how I expect the impossibility of YOU.

Impossibility of YOU
Then, I stopped in my tracks like I never did. Now, I sprinted like I never stopped.

Never stopped
I know you were right there. I know it. If I see you, then it was an accident. If it was an accident, then it would **** me.

If I see you.
I forgot how smooth your caressing used to be. I forgot how your eyes glisten whenever you looked into my eyes. I forgot how bothered you were, though you know how I used to tease you. I forgot how extrovert I used to be. I forgot listening to our music. But you? You forgot that you were the bane of my existence.

The Bane I remember
Don't be a ****** looking back into the past. Look forward but take the lessons with you. Believe in yourself how you've outgrown. Believe in your potential along with the possibility. Believe that no one can hurt you more than your mind. Try making up with your brain and tell it's the time to wake the **** up and LIVE THE LIFE!!!

Motivation to Oneself
What makes it to go from "Mine" to "a person"? Maybe a beautiful lie followed by a bitter truth.
