love you like the ocean
SHREYA Jul 2021
After my first heartbreak, I no more believed in love. Not even I thought of ever being in love. And honestly, everything seemed pretty perfect, until you. You made me feel things I no more believed in. Falling in love with you was like a voyage. I felt tired, constantly, but I never wanted to stop. I wanted to explore, to dive to the deep, deep end. Even though I couldn't breathe, I wanted to stay because deep down in you, in your love there was silence.....it was peaceful. Just like the ocean.

sorry I couldn't be the child
you had in mind
and that I couldn't
ever make you feel proud
sorry I couldn't make
you look at me and smile
sorry, I was stuck in
the depression crowd
never wanted to be your problem child

NOT meant to be
SHREYA Apr 2021
you made me feel safe
you set me free
made me fall in love with myself
and gave me courage and peace
just like love does to anyone
the only difference is that
you made me feel all of this
when you left

forbidden love
SHREYA Apr 2021
your love should be forbidden
it should be kept hidden
in the deepest and darkest place
inside your chest
it's not healthy
it's not easy
it must be tamed
before it is given
the freedom to be free

my heart felt so much safe
when you left than
when you first touched me
your love was never peaceful.

believe me if the universe
can let the sun rise again
and give the moon back its moonlight
every night then it can surely
have the power to mend
your broken heart
heartbreaks are temporary...

when I die
do not burn me
or bury me inside the ground
instead cover me in ink
and surround me with papers

- a poet never dies

a life process
SHREYA Apr 2021
healing is a process
just like breathing
it continues until you die

I feel lost

he replied
the moon is also lost
and eclipsed
before it shines

her personal map

whenever she felt lost
the moon aligned the stars
in the sky guiding her way
back home

she carried a cloud of thoughts
over her head and when it overflowed
it rained through her hands
on the paper in the form of poetry

Wish
SHREYA Apr 2021
I wish I could forget how your love tastes like
I wish I could forget how your warmth felt like
I wish I could forget how your fingers grazed me
I wish and I wish to forget every little detail of you

she was taught to be quite
and her opinions were worthless
she was kept silent every time
she uttered something negative-"NO"
now that she's all grown she has
been told to fight alone but how
could she fight alone when all
she ever learned was that
her voice was never heard

you are not here anymore
you are not here to hold me close
when i wake up terrified in the
middle of the nights
you are not here to kiss me
each morning when we wake up
you are not here to hold me tight under the sheets
you are only somewhere i cannot reach
you are only somewhere i cannot feel you
don't you miss me
don't you imagine your hands
running down my body
don't you want to read those books
to me again
i think you don't
you never really wanted to do these things
to me in the first place
you did it because your friends told you to
you shattered me and you broke me
and now i'll never be the one who can love
someone again

distance
SHREYA Apr 2021
those thunder noises
those lightning strikes
those dark nights with
raindrops from the skies
i wish you were here
to hold me close &
i wish i was there to
hold up your hopes
you & i sat there
on the window sills
of our bedrooms
the people parted us
and so did the cities
but the rain always
held our hearts to
proximity

memories
SHREYA Mar 2021
dark night sky
wearing stars all
around its body &
a moon which is beyond
any beautiful heart
sitting on the grass
in my skin-tight gown
i hummed our
favorite song wishing
you'd come back
but all ever came back
were memories of you

moon talks
SHREYA Mar 2021
i talk to moon everyday
about you and i see
him smile the way i do
when i'm with you
each time i talk about us
the moonlight turns brighter
i don't know if this is a sign
but it's our love that makes
our world shine brighter and brighter
everyday

out of words
SHREYA Mar 2021
these words and
these poetry
can't express my love for you
i'm always in search
for more words that can
prove my love for you
is not only beautiful
but exquisite too
Mar 2021 · 125
magic
SHREYA Mar 2021
he dives right into
my eyes which he
calls exquisite

smiling at me as the
moon smiles every night
when he meets the stars

his lips touch mine so
passionately as they were
only made to meet my lips

his hands gently holding
my body and pulling
me towards him

he softly whispers
underneath his breathe
"now i'm your forever"

oh my! i don't know how
he makes me fall in love
with him without any efforts

- you are some kind of magic.

you leave

me of you
i get excited at the sight
of both of you

destructive
SHREYA Mar 2021
the meteors started
pouring from the sky
the oceans overflowed
the fire burnt stronger
the sun shone brighter
the mountain collapsed
and the sky split in half
people finally came to know
that we had fallen for each other
your love must seem destructive
but for me it is healing.

what i love about you
SHREYA Mar 2021
things i love about him:
1. his eyes
2. his voice
3. the warmth in his hugs
4. his passionate kisses
5. everything

- you mean more than the world to me.

travel
SHREYA Mar 2021
let's go to roads
we have never travelled
let's board a flight
and go worldwide
let's do things
we are afraid to
let's give a name
to me and you
bury our promises
wherever we go
connect our souls to
water, fire and snow
keep your eyes on the path
that's leading you 'cause like me
you don't want to miss a part or two
travel with stardust in your veins
and capture pretty moments
for our future mains
let's cross the oceans and climb up the hills
so much pleasure is in this warmth
and these chills

love
SHREYA Mar 2021
bright dazzling lights,
heavy chandeliers,
pretty women in ballgowns,
handsome men in suits &
classic music all around the room
but all i ever noticed was you
standing in a corner with your glass of wine
& your charming ocean eyes stuck on mine

- a night when i learned love.

your heart is your moon
SHREYA Mar 2021
you don't have a heart
you have a moon
resting inside your chest
lighting up the darker pieces
within you
SHREYA Mar 2021
the morning after
i killed myself
i lost everything and
gained only what i
ever did for the almighty
never had i thought i
would do this to myself
the pain, the hurt
it did convince me easily
no one ever believed my gut
neither did i, but
this time i did and
now i'm here beyond these clouds,
neither in heaven nor in hell
just stuck in the middle as always
now i'm here in the middle
wishing i could unkill myself

— The End —
