Shrinking violet immersed in her little world of indie films, old movies, foreign books, paintings and poems. Budding molecular biologist.
A mere meat, I am In your eyes I see hunger, thirst Fooling around For flesh, for satisfaction You basked in my youth Slowly stripping me Not only of my covers But also of my innocence The thing I treasured most And how naive I was Allowing you full rein On everything I held dear My heart, most especially Even if you did not want it And now, I am devastated Utterly destroyed More broken than I had been before Always asking myself Who am I? Who was I before? Innocent no more

Innocent No More
You are everything I love you as you are No buts, no ifs I love every flaw you have I fell in love with your mind With the sweet words That emanated from your lovely lips The lips that mine have come to know I fell in love with your dreams The way you tell stories Tales from your childhood And how your past relates to your future But you didn't tell me How you wanted the present to be It was just past and future to you And I can't recall you mentioning my name In your tales of the past and in your hopes for the future I am nothing to you You are nothing to me We just keep each other company Til the day we see clearly

Everything and Nothing
You never remember Love, when it's gone But what if It's not yet gone At least for you

They say love is never How we imagine it to be But I've grown tired Of imagining love It's a fleeting emotion A speeding car You never see it coming Then it hits you It'll leave you devastated It'll leave you broken But here, the bruises will heal In love, the wounds won't They say love is never How we imagine it to be It may be greater or worse But it'll never be within the grasp of our understanding

"Love"
If only there were An alternate world I would gladly give anything To witness the beauty of it An alternate world An alternate You, an alternate Me Where the alternate You Falls for the alternate Me Where the alternate You Loves the alternate Me Until it hurts, until it breaks you And I'll be here, happy and complete

What makes it hard Is that there is no measurement No symptom, no signpost To tell love apart from others In the end Love depends on one's self We claim we are in love We decide when we are in love

I forgot the Me I was before I forgot the way I've lived before I forgot the things I've steered clear of I forgot the monotone I've been in But why can't I forget The way you placed your sweet lips upon me? Why can't I forget The way your beautiful mind functions? Why can't I forget The butterflies I felt when you held me? Why can't I forget Our deeper-meaning-of-life conversations? Why can't I forget Your face, your smile, your laugh? Why can't I forget You?

Why
I fell in love I thought I would never say These words which used To mean nothing to me But they did They meant the world to me And so did you I fell in love with you I fell in love Sweet and painful A moon in a dark night Lost without it But you didn't I was a mere lamppost Not a moon, not a star And you were just passing by I fell in love Sensible yet stupid You never know why or how You just know when Strangers, we were Strangers, we are But in between those two Were we something more? I fell in love I wish I hadn't But if I hadn't I would've never known you

I Fell
Is it possible To see through your heart To read your mind To know what you feel To understand your pain And why you inflict it upon others Upon me A naive, little child Wandering in the woods Wondering what went wrong And how I let everything become worse Become waste A dull life I've lead Contented on breathing and eating Surviving on few discourses With the few I know Then, there was you A mystery, a puzzle I was me for the first time A Me that hid under red cheeks A mistake, a regret I would've gladly opened my heart Instead, I opened my lips Without you knowing how I feel Thinking it was just a physical need But it wasn't It was an emotional one *I was emotionally attached to you And to everything you say and do*

Shaken
How can one kiss How can one day Break open the sky A new light, a new life How you've kept yourself Hidden, broken Shut out from the rest A feeling of isolation You thought you loved so But could it be worse? Could you have had it any other way? Could everything be nothing? Could you keep pretending Not to care, unable to feel A tiny bit of love and love-ache A kiss can mean a thousand things And it could mean nothing at all
