You are what you are!
But, do you know who you are?

You are...

What's between desire and greed,
What's between a longing and a blessing,
What's between time and the space continuum,
What's between the rise and the fall,
What's between direction and an ambition,
What's between relief and cheer,
What's between my sanity and peace,
What's between the favoured and the pure,
What's between an infatuation and tenderness,
What's between the beginning and immeasurable eternity,
What's between magic and mayhem,
What's between aggression and grace,
What's between stillness and elation,
What's between perseverance and tranquility,
What's between a crusade and a pilgrimage,
What's between a prayer and gratitude,
What's between my reality and fantasy,
What's between Aphrodite and Athena,
What's between surrender and defiance,
What's between priority and integrity,
What's between an obsession and a fascination,
What's between existence and extinction,
What's between style and elegance,
What's between an adventure and a celebration,
What's between beauty and allure,
What's between creation and the universe,
What's between life and mercy,
What's between love and remembrance...

And, you are more!

I wonder how many times,
I've treasured you,
Looking at you,
From yonder and near,
But, not once,
Have my yearning eyes been lost,
And, gone past the twinkle in yours.

I asked my heart,
Time and again,
Over the span of time,
And, I know now the ultimate truth,
A realisation as pleasant as the moon,
About what poetry is,
And, that is you!
Vivek Raj Apr 2024
My quest will continue,
Till the end of time,
Across all realms,
And, the spacetime continuum,
Beyond all known dimensions,
While chartering new destinations,
For that one blessing,
To lay my eyes on you again,
Even amidst a hurricane,
And, feel what I felt before,
For the first time even more!
Vivek Raj Apr 2024
For all of eternity,
My diary shall bear,
Two imperishable details,
My penmanship,
And, your name!
Vivek Raj Apr 2024
How do I put into words?
The moon is over and above enchanting,
After catching a glimpse of you!
