Cold and dull mornings

spent wishing you were back here

in this bed again.
Aishwarya Nair Dec 2015
Can you feel me ache

each time you get up to leave?

Will you ever stay?
Aishwarya Nair Nov 2015

to when we were one atom

waiting to explode.
Aishwarya Nair Nov 2015
Will you remind me
to be patient through it all?
Will you stay with me?
Aishwarya Nair Oct 2015
The warmth doesn’t linger
without you to cut the cold.
Please bring back comfort.
Aishwarya Nair Oct 2015
I’m always looking
for your face in crowded streets,
hoping our paths cross.

and sail your embrace to me.
I miss your magic.

Soothe these weary bones,

make up for the lack of us,

hold me closer now.

Together we dance,
without a need for music;
this is our romance.
Aishwarya Nair Dec 2015
Will you promise to
bring comfort to shaking hands?
You are all they need.
Aishwarya Nair Nov 2015

needing to hold you always.

They don’t know better.

The light will find us.
Of this, I am confident.
It will guide us home.

What of the silence

that threatens to consume me?

How do I brave it?

I love you, I do.
I have waited a lifetime
just to call you mine.
Aishwarya Nair Oct 2015
So many sunsets,
as unfinished memories,
spent watching alone.
Aishwarya Nair Oct 2015
Bring to me longing
and watch me settle the ache
as I bring comfort.
Aishwarya Nair Oct 2015
Take me to your calm,

where this ache does not exist,

end this weariness.
Aishwarya Nair Nov 2015
Did you find the light
in my dark, in my chaos?

Was it beautiful?

We must not forget
to acknowledge the stillness
that lives around us.

I know you’re aching,
I see the longing in you;
please don’t give up now.

Today is the day,
you marry your beloved,
forever begins.

Let me offer you
my humble gratitude for
saving me always.

Laughter spilled across,
closing the space between us;
calm found us after.

Mornings in your arms,
not having to pull away,
like prayers answered.

I’ll never forget
the magic and elegance
I worshipped in you.

No matter how long
you take to wander back home,
I will wait for you.

Whenever it’s time,
remember to let them in.
Slowly and softly.

Warm hands on warm cups,
a pleasant chill in the air;
mornings spent in love.

Your hands on my waist,
leading a familiar dance;
your grin matching mine.

I'll never hurt you.
No matter the obstacles,
I’ll stay true to you.

You silence the shake

and bring the calm that follows,

you save me always.

We’re under these sheets,
unstirred by the rumbling skies,
tangled up in love.
Aishwarya Nair Nov 2015
These empty houses
filled with wonted reminders
and ghosts of the past.
Aishwarya Nair Aug 2015
I saw you wearing

nothing but my favorite

smile in dreamy eyes.
Aishwarya Nair Aug 2015
Do you remember
the promises that you made?
Will you return home?

I've always been yours.
Even if you don’t admit,
you’ve always been mine.

Burnt Thursday dinners,
rushed Monday morning breakfasts;
I want these with you.

and let me bathe in your calm.
Breathe life into me.

and stomach aching laughter,
we found our hearts full.

These lonely bedsheets
are calling out to you now,
they're waiting for you.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
There are parts of me
aching to be touched again,
but only by you.

You are not broken
and I don’t need to fix you,
always remember.

Love is love is love.
Don’t ever let anyone
tell you otherwise.

Too often we think
our story doesn’t matter,
too often we’re wrong.
I wrote this haiku on the last day of the World Suicide Prevention Week ‘15. We cannot let this movement stop here. If you (or someone you know) are struggling, please reach out. Get help. Know that you are not alone. Know that there is hope.
Aishwarya Nair Nov 2015
You are so much more

than this longing and this ache.

You are art in form.
Aishwarya Nair Oct 2015
We find the music,
the magic, in the mundane,
if we look for it.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
Love me in between
sentences we try to make
through our breathlessness.
Aishwarya Nair Oct 2015
Teach me forgiveness,
and do it while we make up
for time spent apart.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
These lonely bedsheets,
haunted by the reminders
of the love we made.
Aishwarya Nair Oct 2015
Your side of the bed
remains as cold as always.
Please make your way home.
