Just an ordinary girl by day
Avid comic book reader by night
She loved the comic, Crazy Cool
Read one before bed each night
One day she ran to the comic book shop
To buy the latest issue
Then she saw it was him
The author of Crazy Cool
They locked eyes
She, mesmerized
Asked for an autograph, her real intentions were a disguise
Not to him, he wrote down his number on the inside page
Just the thought of meeting him, left her in a daze
Next day, she gave him a call and he asked him to come meet her
When she arrived at his place, she was surprised no one was there to greet her
She found a comic book with a note that said turn this page
And there he was looking up at her, she collapsed in a daze

Raconteur we all are
Narrating our anecdotes
Not many willing audience
You keep them close to your heart
Maybe one day someone will listen
Peering at your beautiful heart
A traveler with compassion
Willing to walk with you
Noting down every detail
Weaving a story of togetherness
Bonding over the stories
The raconteur
Will have finally met another
Sharing life’s anecdotes
Embracing every event
And celebrating together
Come what may
Who can tell wild stories?

stories
where
dragons fly and
roar

stories of mist
curling over
the
still waters
of an icy pond

stories of time and space
unfolding before
golden eyes -
known by wiser
minds than mine

who can tell
the stories that
reawaken
our
stuttering hearts

I love you and i hate you at the same time
I'll never leave you forever, no matter ever, whatever but however
I'll be soft like a feather
For good or worse
Like friends since birth
Well that's worth when all your life turns  
Like saving planet earth
I want to leave you think about all the things i said
I want to kiss you, hug you and even make love to you in bed

I don't want to just be another friend
Just because you're dating that ****** called Ted
Don't you remember the first time we met
I was outside of your house playing football with my friends
You came by and Since then i couldn't keep my eyes off you
I even got struck in the face by the ball because of you
But you were the one
So nothing stopped me from getting to you

We were both bullied at school because we weren't cool
And i was weak and fragile so i couldn't stop it from happening
But one time i intervened and made a fool out of myself
Got the **** beaten out of me
But atleast i fought for our honour
But thinking of it all just doesn't matter anymore
Because you were so afraid of what people say
That you covered yourself with anguish and pain
I tried and tried to embrace and caress you
but you kept pushing me away and away

"Where was Ted when you were alone and blue?" i asked her

She said "Our love was make believe"

"Then why can't you come back to me?"

"I.. I.. I  SIMPLY  CAN'T!!"  

But how could you be so heartless
I loved you the most
You were like my best friend from 6th grade
Look at all the things i've made
In the end, i wish you were ...
No you say the ending
Cause i got fed up
With this little love story
Like Romeo and juliet

When I'm telling you
The story
Of my hardships
I don't need
A heart
A mouth
A soul
A brain
No.
All I need is an ear.

Dedication defined as the derivative of desperation.
Defined but not definite.
Definitely finite.
If only I could I'd find it.
Find what?
A way out of the blue.
The blue?
The blue is you.
A way out of your constant glare
Unaware you stare
I seek something to shade me
You are my shade
Yet you enslave me
The sky that raised me
The ground that grazed me
The trees that praised me
Now aim to sway me
They test me
They ask me
Who are you?
Who are you now?
Rocking all that gold from our bowel.
Why will you not bow?
I refuse.
I detest.
I refuse to stand for it.
I will lie if I have to.
I will **** a man for it.
But this me.
Dedicated.
This world is what I made it.
So sway all you want.
My success cannot be evaded.
