Love is bittersweet

as
it
laps
around your feet

deceptive coastlines

etched in memory
the day we left the village
leaving no footprints.

rain clouds gallop high
fast we run, puffing, panting--
who will reach home first?

the wheels of the cart
in quick rhythmic clatter
swing the bullock horns.

when the hills recede
quietly, unseen, dust
settles on the road.
i have been away from hellopoetry for quite some time, but not from poetry. may i start sharing my poems once again? i have even forgotten the names of my old friends here. i shall start updating on all of you. love

Woke up today, thinking of you.
As the sun illuminates my window,
I couldn’t help but be grateful,
for the bliss it brought upon,
for the joy you brought upon.
The rest of the day,
now I shall look forward to.
Though you may not know,
it doesn’t matter.
To love you from afar,
I don’t mind.
Today is the first day after having written a love letter for my long-time secret love. That letter seems to make all the difference because finally, what had been a secret is no longer a secret today. It's a privilege because not every one is given a similar opportunity to love and to express how they feel.
So here I am, trying to make the most of it, while it lasts.

Someday I will bring this world to its knees for everything that it has done to me.
And while it begs for my forgiveness, I will simply watch as it trembles at the echos of my laugh
Am  i more or less
There is a less that is more
Than I will ever know and
A more that is less than all
i am...So be of Good Cheer
With nothing to fear that will
Not wait till next year that is
Only a thought of  mind walking
Upon a lonely shore thinking of
You again and again. Once more
