Hey Love... I reach out
I said how much I love you
how much you matters to me

I opened up on little things I expect
Hugs so warm
Kisses so passionate
All I need is your attention and respect
Hold hands while walking

When I narrate something that could me
meaningful or blunder
All I need is you listen
pay attention.. give me an eye contact

Hold me and let me rest on your shoulder
A kiss on Forehead..
It could take out all my stress and Worries

Though I let you know all these
I could see you took efforts
Yet told me you are introvert
You don't express much

Could see you laugh out loud
with your colleagues and friends over phone
I wish to have that entertaining conversation
with you often

Love to see your laugh and smile
I could say.. it can be difficult
you could have different story to narrate
what you expect out

I Love you!!!
My Love is always yours!!
Learn to express it so other could feel it often!
The eye is the window to the soul;
I hide my personality there;
If you look right into my eyes,
You would see that she comes with fear.

I am Just like a cut Diamond;
My personality is so very rare;
I feel I have Great value;
Please handle me with Love and With care.

This personality that you see is timid;
At times, I can come off as shy;
I am scared to show you my real true self; and Often, I am wondering why.

I am Living a True LIVE Fantasy, but
Destined for it to be Reality;
I just wished my personality wasn't so hidden;
My personality wants to break Free.

I Express myself through writing;
Pen to paper is how I Flow;
I Will continue to Express
the REAL TRUE ME!!!
That everyone would Love
to Know!!!!

I prayed and hope for it
I have sacrificed my time for it
But when I got it, I felt nothing

I heard "congratulations"
Such words felt nothing
Just sounds the tongue twisted

They don't know me, maybe that's why
I felt no genuine happiness
Rather I felt deep guilt.
I recently passed my board exam.  I prayed and hoped for it. I saw my name in the list of passers, but I felt nothing. I studied for a long time.

When I passed, I was congratulated, but I don't know them. They didn't know how I struggled.

I wasn't able to celebrate yet. Regardless, I should be happy.  I don't know why, but I just feel guilty. I just wanted to let this out.  Maybe, I'll give my self time to process everything.

Sometimes we’re softened by the love they try to give
Even if we can’t fully accept it and live
Even if we can’t learn our lesson and forgive
Even if we stay trapped by the pain and continue to relive
Like a movie
Who would choose me? If there were other options
Don’t love me out of duty
Find the beauty in my mess and hang on to that
Love the good parts and help me change the rest
Help me to express these thoughts
I’m always so depressed
I feel so possessed
& I just need some rest

To ignite- - like love-fire
Words crossover express
Rollover under the cover
       New- Lover
Eyes- express Lighthouse tower
Caress good news to digest

     Nevertheless
     Unless


Express to dress
Don't impress

Lost time to address
Mindful - Express- train  
Possess-God-Bless-Invest
Open* expression* request*  
 Bucket list Jekyll and Hyde
Secrets dark you decide
  *       *        *       *       *
Yoga stretch two lovers coffee
Picture selfie - express what's mine  
All we need more time
Success *  to express
We don't always need to impress I guess life has its ups and downs do things simple and plain think your thought out before you do them

Sadness disappears

in ever wider circles --


of re-retelling.

Sometimes it's better to leave the pages BLANK
Sometimes the BEST is to not EXPRESS everything,
Let your emotions be wrapped beneath TRUST
Put your LOVE on the lap of future,
Let it BORN with peace.

Don't sum yourself up in ONE word,
Just LEAVE the pages blank.
Leave it blank

expressing love without having to stop myself from feeling the depth of what we share
love is only a feeling
If I can still express all the feelings
I'm experiencing through words,
it's a sign that I'm still alive.
