O’ dewy rose, scattered on the silken floor,
Art thou a pledge of love, or parting’s lore?
In thee resides both flame and celestial light,
Thy fall alters the soul’s eternal plight.

Each bloom by the Hand of Destiny unfurled,
Carries the rapture and the ruin of the world.

your eyes inject me like fentanyl
making me addicted
making me dependent on every glance to live
i’m addicted to your smile, your charm
and all that’s you

he speaks to me about the xylem
and the phloem, meaningless to me when
the only thing i want to do is listen
to him yap, and to gaze at his eyes
like it’s the sun, and i’m a plant

You know, Shri... Just a moment ago,
I was waiting for your message—
and then came this keen desire-
to hear the sound of your voice.

Meanwhile, it was drizzling outside.
I was overwhelmed by your thoughts...

So, I stepped out for a while.

The weather was pretty—cold and quiet.
I felt the rain fall over me, soft and cool,
tiny drops dancing across my skin.

Then, my eyes fell on a small pit,
filled with tiny droplets—
I dipped my foot into it,
and the sensation-
a language my skin couldn't translate.


It felt so nice—
those tiny drops over me...
They reminded me of you
Sometimes, the weather carries your presence in its arms. This was one of those moments—when a drizzle wasn’t just rain, but a reminder of someone special.

Was it my greed?
Did my desires get in the way?
I wanted it all, everything
The future, the hopes, the love
Your dreams, your desires, your thoughts
I want it all, give it all to me
All of you, the good and bad
The doubts and fears you have
The happiness and laughters
Let me devour it all, take it all
Anything of yours is mine now
Those smiles, eyes, kisses
Fill up my greed with all of you
But was my desire reckless?
All I ever wanted was you
Was that too much to ask for?
Was my greed for you too much?
All I ever wanted was everything
Everything with you, by you
I wanted to take it all
Because you had all of me
Your greed outmatched mine
So why was my own greed
The one that failed the most?
Why was your greed acceptable
When it took everything from me?

speechless in the fact he could be mine
but could he be with another?
doubtless that he would be able to get with
another. if he isn’t, do i have a chance?

secure in the will of god to keep me on
the straightest path, but what if he’s on the path?

I punched that mirror
Over and over and over again
My knuckles bloodied
Hundreds of shards on the floor
Yet no matter what
Even as I kept smashing it all
Each shard is still
A reflection of a broken man
In the quiet corners of my memories, I keep,
The sounds of love, loss & heartbreak, I softly weep,
I find myself trapped in the past,
Moments cherished, yet destined not to last.

Life opens up in chapters, not in one's embrace,
We journey through joy, yet sorrow we face.
The hearts together, then part on their own course,
Leaving behind both comfort and remorse.

I held you close, a secret in my heart,
A erupting fire and a flame bound to depart.
Closure sought, amid tears and moan,
My happiness vanished with each sunset's down.

Watching you leave, a shadow in the dark,
My soul drifting in emotions, so brisk,
Into another's arms, into another's life,
I stood, broken, no more strife.

Yet in the depth of my memories deeper,
Your laughter and warmth, will retain forever ,
For love's tender moments, though they fade,
Are etched in time, where they'll never evade.

I'll cherish the gifts of our shared togetherness,
And remember each moments of happiness,
Though paths part, and hearts endures pain,
Life unfolds, moments of experiences we gain.

For love is not bound to one, but to many a soul,
In the road map where destinies roll.
And though I loved deeply, in a time now past,
Life's journey continues, beyond what didn't last.

You as a rare pearl in the deepest ocean,
Through the rays of the sun,
I found you, as a soul so pure,
A treasure of happiness and very rare.

A beauty that could only be found,
By those who truly dare and not frightened.
With my trembling hands, I held this gem,
A wonder to behold, causing in me, mayhem.

All my dreams, both lost and found,
A tale of hope with love all around.
Where my dreams and wishes play,
turning my nights into day.

For you are rarest in this universe,
Waited for you through all my years.
Will you take this journey with me forever?
Will ensure to hold your hand, leaving never.

Let the magic fill the air,
Wherever we shall be together.
Hand in hand, let's build a future ,
With true love beyond compare.

For this moment onward, here and now,
I promise to love you forever, is my vow.
By this nature, our destinies align,
We shall reign in love's eternal shine.

Through the stairs of Rainbow's light,
Where clouds woven as gown so bright,
With the Sun adorning her head as crown,
A celestial marvel, my angel walks down.

Moon dangling in half on her each ear,
Reflecting the cosmos with kind care,
Her eyes glittering like stars in charm
She is a divine gift from heaven's arm.

I wish for you, like monsoon's rain,
In the fields of my heart, making me insane.
To be drenched in you, wholly immersed,
In your love's downpour, forever encased.

Let our love bloom like flowers in May,
Bathed in the warmth of the sun's ray,
With every drop, a tender kiss,
In this never-ending life of pure bliss.

Your laughter, a melody, sounds so sweet,
In the music of our hearts' beat,
Wrapped in arms of your gentle sigh,
Underneath this vast star's light in the sky.

For you are my angel, my life's light,
In your presence, everything feels right,
We walk through life's path forever
In love's embrace, growing old together.
