Your breath fanning my face.
Your hands in my hairs.
The depth of your dark eyes staring at me.
The power that flows from you to me.
The intensity with you love.
This spark simmering between us.
Blood flowing with undercurrent.
The pulse beating behind your ear.
My hands drifting down your back.
Our breathing that's increasing every passing sec.
The buildup of this chemistry..
Hovering over the edge.
Diving down from this cliff.
One touch..... is all what it took,
For me to come undone.

Who am I?

Sitting at your door,
Knocking every once in a while.
Waiting for you to open up,
So I could stay there for a while.

Call me an opportunist,
Call me a begger.
Call me your own reflection,
Call me a wager.

Won't go until I met you,
Waiting for it to happen.
Or you can make it easy for me,
Do something about it.

Everything that has to happen,
Is going to happen anyway.
You wanna stand and stare me in the eyes?
Or you can give me your back,
I'll enter from your side.

Being afraid of me,
Won't do you any good.
I'm persistent, stubborn and relentless.

Wanna know who am I? ?
YOUR DESTINY.

Invisible.

I walk around with
My chest wide open.
My heart ripped out.
Nobody can see it.

My world's falling apart.
No land beneath my feet.
My soul crushed into
Millions of pieces.
Nobody can see them.

My eyes bleeding tears.
My hands outstretched for help.
I'm crying for mercy.
No one to can hear it.

I'm invisible. ..
Nobody can see me.

A poet without words.

You were music and sunshine.
You were laughter and light.
You burned so bright while having a dark side.
When you were around. ..
                           I felt alive.
I was unstoppable. ......
                           With you by my side.
You inspired emotions. ....
                           And intense feelings.
You became my muse....
                         Made writing easy.
Then you left....
                    Took away my words with you.
Now I'm a poet ...
          Struggling to write anything that doesn't remind me of you.
           Every word feel dishonest.
           Every verse broken.
           Every promise a lie.
           Every poem incomplete.
          And I'm trying to get by.
I let you go...
            Because you wanted me to.
I closed the door...
            I thought it'll help me through.
Just please return my words...
           Then go back to being you.

FOR MY MAA.

You made me by your flesh and blood.
You brought me to this world.
You bled for me,you went through immense pain for me.
You fed me the bite out of your mouth.
You dress me up in the fanciest gowns.
You are strict when you need to be.
You are gentle,.when I want you to be.
You are calm in between a chaos.
Your kiss can heal any wound.
Your touch is the best medicine.
Your hugs the warmest of the cocoons.
Your lap,the best bed I've ever slept on.
Your voice itself is my lullaby.
Your arms still the best home.
Your fussing over ,I won't exchange for the world.
You are my UNIVERSE.

You are my best friend. .
    When I need one.
You are my cheerleader. .
    When I have no one.
You are the difference. .
    Between good and bad.
You are the FACE OF THE GOD.

You are my partner in crime.
My bank where every dime is mine.
You are my first school.
You are everything that I wanna be.
You are the strength that no one can beat.
You work every minute of every week.
You stand up for me even when your knees went weak.

You are what every child should have.
You are what we took for granted.
You are the world itself..
You have so many names.
YOU ARE MY MOTHER,
MY AMMI......MY MUMMA.
    AND MY MAA.

Lost in it.

There was a corner in my heart ,
That I didn't let anyone see.
There was a space in my mind,
Where I didn't let anyone be.

There was a piece of my soul,
That I didn't let anyone have.
There was a part of my life,
Where no one came to stay.

There were some of my words,
Those I never said to anyone.
There were some of my actions,
Those I didn't let anyone understand.

Then you came by..
    And everything changed.
You started to exist. .
    I was ceased by.
I called your name so much. .
    I started to get recognised by it.
You were what I became. .
    And myself somewhere lost in it.

Life goes on.

You learn to walk..
You learn to run..
You fell down. .
You scrap your knee. .
You broke your hand. .
You loose your patience. .
You loose your mind. .
But you still try..
You get up. .
Try to stay upright. .
You crawl. .
You wobble. .
Then you stand up..
You start to fight..
You prove yourself. .
You defeat every obstacle. .
You conquer every fear. .
You became what you wanna be. .
The best version of yourself. .
It doesn't matter what you left behind. .
Everything that came and went was a lesson..
Everything that stayed. ...is yours.
Life goes on.
