I’ve created a world
Of my own,
It’s in my mind
Safe and sound.

I’m the only
Citizen of it,
I live happily
By my own rules.

I’m inviting you
As a guest,
To peek inside
Because I like you.

But you know
It's not a glimpse,
It's much more
It’s a journey.

You will start
Loving it,
As the time
Passes by.
(It will happen,
trust me!)

Don’t forget
That you are,
But a traveler
On exploration.

Don’t Demand
Citizenship one day,
As I will
Definitely decline.
(You needed to ask
and that’s not right.)

It’s not that
You can’t be,
A part of
My world.

If you
Are a part
You’d fit in
Perfectly.
(I hope so,
I Sincerely do)

It will be
Something magical,
That will happen
Naturally, unknowingly.

You wouldn’t feel
The need to ask,
And I wouldn’t feel
The need to answer.

We’d only
Feel our worlds,
Expand and
Become infinite.

All my dreams
Will be yours,
And all yours
Will be mine.

As even I
Am a visitor,
To your world
For this while.

Loving is
2 people,
completing
A puzzle.

Each one
Missing dearly,
A few
Critical Pieces.

Each one
Having just,
The perfect
Partial view.
While everyone thinks that Love is a concept of perfection, I think it's exactly opposite of that. No matter how hard you try, you will only truly know a small part of other person. So I want to tell you that don't try too hard to make all the things fall into place. Be what you are, let the other person be what that person is and see how you two go together. Enjoy your puzzle.

The blue-green ocean
spreads out like a fan
before us

our dry, sand imbedded
feet approach

we are timid birds -
uncaged

fearful of the gait
of our shadow

but sand is forgiving
and we step

inch by inch towards
the water

we are so close
that I can taste
the salt

brown seaweed
sticking to my
naked soles

what did we come
here for?

I wanted to see the sun
reflected on a liquid
mirror

I wanted to forage
and find

treasure

but we are stolen
by the waves

carried out across
the shore

we are made
of yesterday's
passion

our bare skin
wrinkling

with age

we have found
nothing but

ourselves

hopeless drifters, now
unclothed, unhinged

and tethered to

the tide

You may find yourself lost, in the bitterness of a beautiful dream, force not the waking scream;
the melody will chant us out of place, and the fiddler will play our scheme!

Long and dusty, small dirt road
Leading somewhere I don't know.
Could just be a dead end;
Have to turn around, come back again.
Someday my steps I might retrace;
Someday end up back in this place,
Greet old friends I left behind,
Put small back roads out of my mind.
But, today, that's not what I need.
Nowhere's where I need to be.
And if this road doesn't turn me back around
I'll find somewhere else to settle down.

Unwind my body
Like a vivisection
And see if you can find
The real me

Unwind the code
Like pulling a string from cloth
And see if you can find
Humanity's reason
