Finding.

Scream loud,
      Let them hear you growling.
Launch yourself high,
     Then get the dice rolling.

Pull yourself together,
      Stand tall.
Do not let yourself anymore,
      Been a while, you've been stalling.

Dream!,
      Do not be afraid.
You will achieve it,
      Just Know..
           what you will do,after achieving.

See the sky,
      Aim to the ground.
You will be up above,
      So start climbing.

It's a game,
     Of hunters and preys.
Been a prey too long,
     Now let's start hunting.

Life is too short,
    To waste on what ifs.
You're worth every risk,
    So start doing.

You have a name,
    Written in the stars.
This is your life,
    So start shining.

Been silent too long,
Been hidden too long.
It's time to be seen,
This is you...
So let them hear you breathing.

Been afraid too long,
Been lost too long.
Now,..the time has come.
And it's time for finding.

Truth of the poem.

Everyone reads the same words,
But the meaning is always different.
It's in the mind of the reader,
Where it's hidden,
The meaning of the poem.

Some relate to the emotions,
Some just like the words.
Some can interpret as it is,
Some take it to another level.
It's in the eyes of the reader,
Where it's hidden,
The beauty of the poem.

For some it's a song,
For some it's a lesson.
For some it's just a saying,
For some it's a passion.
It's in the heart of the reader,
Where it's hidden,
The purpose of the poem.

Sometimes it reminds us of a good time,
Sometimes it makes us cry.
Sometimes it's just what we wanna hear,
Sometimes it shows the ugly side.
It's in thoughts of the reader,
Where it's hidden,
The truth of the poem.

PRESENCE.

You went so far away....
But I still feel your presence.

Like, when I'm standing beside the water,
Watching my reflection washed away by angry waves.

When I'm laying underneath that old oak tree,
In back garden of grandma's house,
Seeing a family of veronica's coming back home and dusting their wings.

When I'm walking down the streets,
For no other reason then to just keep walking.

When I'm doing nothing but sitting on the porch swing,
With the sun setting behind me,
The feeling of nostalgia and end of comparatively better day.

Or when I feel the first rays of the rising sun,
Through the east facing window on my face.
Hoping and praying for another better day.

I've always felt your presence,

In the silent moment in between the conversations,
When I'm trying to make a point.
Or as a constant voice in my head naming my conscience.

In everything that you taught me,
And In everything that I do with my life.

It feels too small of the words,
But what I regret the most,
Is never saying thank you or goodbye.

I do feel the same.

You are right,
      I can be wrong.
You are everything that I want,
      But I gotta be strong.

You say I am your heart,
      Baby you are my soul.
I want to keep a piece of you,
      Cause I can't have you whole.

You can call me anything you want,
     I will take it all.
You are someone to cherish,
    I'm someone just tagging along.

We've been apart,
    You were here all along.
You want me to face it,
    But I am facing it around the clock.

You show emotions,
   In everything you do.
I die a little every time,
   Cause I can't say "me too".

You apologise for my mistake,
   And everything that I did wrong.
You've got a heart of gold,
   You think mine is made of stone.

I can't open it,
    As you are standing at the door.
I can't have you as I want,
    So I don't want you at all.

So you keep caring about me,
    I'll keep pretending that I don't.
Believe me if you can,
    Or baby I will take the blame.

Yearning.

I took a step,
           Away from you.
Something pulled me back.
I told myself,
          I'll move on.
Something always held me back.

Was it my curiosity? ?
     Or your unwillingness to comment? ?
Was it my stupidity? ?
     Or your reasonable points for why we shouldn't?.
Was it because it didn't happened? ?
I feel so hanged up and out my mind.
Or was it a plain simple nothing??
Just Something conjured on own my mind.

For this unknown emotion,
       That I feel for you.
For this unnamed relation,
       We are living in.
For this yearning I feel,
       Everytime I'm around you.
For this strangest bond,
       That I've ever seen.

I wanna know...
            Once just once.

What it feels like,
          To be known as you.
What it sounds like,
          To hear from you.
What it seems like,
          To be held by you.
And it actually means,
          To not to be away from you.

Love song.

Maybe you love me,
           Maybe you don't.
What's there to loose?
           And it's worth a shot.

Want to write you,
           A love poem.
Cause I can't give you,
          A love song.

I'm myself,
          When I'm with you.
It's like I've been waiting,
          For you all along.

I know you say you're fine,
         When you're not.
I can read your eyes.
         I can't be that wrong.

I'm the pen,
         You're the words.
I'm the heart,
        But you beat in my chest.

It's a blind shot,
       That I know.
Just hit the target,
       That's all I hope.

You and me,
        Are a puzzle.
Every piece falls,
        In a specific slot.

We are both weird,
       But each other's kind.
You hold one end,
       I'll keep the other side.

Just wanted,
      To tell you.
That I'm yours,
     Even if you're not mine.

To cherish something you already have,
Is just a matter of paying attention.

To make your surroundings and people around you happy,
Is just a matter of observations.

To have something good to say,
Always,
Is just a matter of respect and understanding.

To provide a companionship without expecting anything in return,
Is just a matter of listening and learning .

To resolve the complications and problems,
Is just a matter of conversations.

To know someone or to see someone to their core,
Is just a matter of letting the person in.

To hold your heart in your hand without caring about getting hurt,
Is just a matter of trusting with completion.
