You are the shadow that I seek in the brightest of days
Always showing up with your arms wide open, finding your ways
Though the rays might consume, be harsh and vile
I seek you in the crowd hoping I'll find you in a while
And I do, I always do
I find you and steal you,
from among the crowd
Drag you down the road and take you to your seas,
Sink with you deep.

You are my morning star
My trinket of love
Part annoying, part begrudging
My silly bean,
How would the sea ever be without the shore
Each day I seek for you more
Each day I love you more
Sakshi Balla Jul 28
There was something about you,
a subtle breeze,
a flickering wind
Something to sweep me away,
with the windy sails
from your restless seas
and unwavering pleas
A calm in my chaos
Also a havoc in my peace
We keep running in circles
Circles that we won't appease
A destruction, a devotion
Affection that won't cease
Maybe you are the storm
and then the pacifier for the peace
You are exactly why they named storms after people
A wreak indeed.

In the scorching summers
When you need the shadows
I'll be the breeze
And when the warmth feels like it would swallow you through grounds
I'll be the splash of cold stream running through the greens

And in rains, when you need to hide
I'll pull you in
We'll drench in drizzles
Laugh through the sizzles
And whine and spin

Be it the colds or pours
When it gets freezing
And when life seems a bit deceiving
I'll be the snuggle
To keep you from heaving

All through seasons
I’ll keep you close
To make you my reason
All through seasons
All through seasons

I love you in verses
in the poetic curses
Ones that are scribbled for you
Ones that are screaming for you
It's a cadence of the melody
won't you hear the beats
I love you in rhythms
In the poetic schisms
In hungers, in thirsts
In devotions, in possessions
I love you insatiable
I love you unexplainable

A corpse maybe
You being here
Sometimes not
When I call out,
your name echoes.
When you reach out,
my voices take heed.
You are dead sometimes
You are there sometimes
But a corpse most times.

Almost saw you the other night
Oh no,
Not here,
In my dreams
No wait!!
In my nightmare.
