Take me inside you is what he pleaded
She took him to the guided tour of her heart instead,
enroute he met the grieving edges, the bruised corners and the blood spilling plastered walls
Dreaded and bewildered he left only to disappear
smilingly she locked her heart  thinking about his unkept words;

It didn't take her long to realize and start afresh
that he only professes love having his hands on her flesh,
How skillfully he practiced this mind body disconnect?
How secretly he kept his heart remain unaffected.
It was then she decided to let him go,
For her, love was an utmost amalgamation of both mind and body.

Trying to move on from you has been the toughest task so far
Until I realized it wasnt betrayal from your side at all
It was mere the lack of willingness you possess
Why was it so hard to confess
With your phrases , you placed me high
But your endeavors never made you mine..

By the fortuitous act of destiny we met
I am here for you always, you said
Your words never aligned with your actions
This didnt govern the laws of my attraction
You kept promising
I kept believing
Hopes in my heart were crushed by your unkept words
But I kept covering the extra yard
Standing on the crossroad I accepted something I always knew
This realization cleared the view
There is one who you belong to
There is something else you crave for
This is when I started giving up
I didnt let go off you
I just let go off the willingness to be with you

Wandering in the lanes of being your transient temptation,
in a run to be your progressing need,
or a potential for your imperishable desire
I have lost myself....

For all the long nights battling for sleep
amidst the thoughts replaying in your mind a game so cheap;
For all the glimpses of yourself in the mirror
seeing a reflection beyond recognition and your screams in horror;
For all those mornings deciding to be or not to be
lying on your bed with lump in your throat and moist eyes;
For all those moments when your soul is crushed under the weight of hopelessness
and the only feeling you find true is helplessness;
For all the anger,betrayal,rejection and abandonment rushing through your mind and soul
Lying on your bed with the covers pulled up is not meant to be your goal;

Don't feel disillusioned by what's going inside you
Its high time you get into something 'new'
As sad it sounds, the world won't stop for you.
Don't waste time wallowing in self bitterness and hatred
Do yourself a loving favour for once and walk with self belief

Joy
Don't Practice happiness
coz when you do
you build homes in people around you
and when they walk away
they take your shelter along with them;
Rather Practice Joy
coz when you do
your soul becomes your abode forever.
#Joy, #happiness
