I've no memory
from before the words began.
They were always there.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
There are parts of me
aching to be touched again,
but only by you.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
These lonely bedsheets,
haunted by the reminders
of the love we made.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
I only ask for
your tender admiration.
I want nothing more.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
With new found friendship
and stomach aching laughter,
we found our hearts full.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
I’ve wrapped myself in
longing ever since you left.
Please just end this ache.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
With precise purpose
the wind messes up your hair,
finding calm in you.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
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.

We have sacrificed
so much to be here today,
don't give up on us.
Aishwarya Nair Sep 2015
I have gentle arms
that were made for holding you
through the darkest nights.
