I will not cry a river for you but for self
who needs to release pains
that come in currents of undertow.
Currents that flow from this life and past.

Teardrops bond to face
like snowflakes hitting ground.
They shimmer in light on cheeks surface.
They freeze upon features, as feet walk in winter air.

But soon tears like rain stop
and whats left is a smile
as I recall my greatness.
A smile to match the upside down rainbow
in sacred sky.

I am as sacred as sky.

She and I were strangers before.
We had the same pains of deception from the close ones.
we artifice the close ones too,  
one day, we met at crossroads,
don't know how and when
we become friends
one night, during our late night chats
our tormented hearts oozed out the grieves stored
tears rolled out like the rains.
we cried a lot
wept for hours in silence
now we are more CLOSER than the said lovebirds
because
we share the pain
not love.

It's been over a year
Then said,
I feel like we'll know each other for a while
Then said,
You're soft
No,
Not like that,
Just soft
I want to wrap my arms around you all the time
& tell you that,
Even in a world of complicated choices I find a solid ground when next to you
I lov-
I can't say it
But
I enjoy your company
Glancing at you makes me smile
& I hate having emotions tied to another human
Just don't break me
I am fragile and crack easily
& Unwillingly I am attached to everything you're about
Can we drive up the canyons again
& point out the houses that sit in isolation from the world
Picture ourselves escaping from siren filled streets
& A starless sky
& Talk about how the world is dying but nothing matters anyways
Let's drink wine on your couch again
& We'll slowly begin to lean over each other
After all this,
I hope we will know each other for a long time

My words and kisses
are not to make you mine.

My rhymes and promises
are to make you smile.
